Yes, I’m still alive.  No I’m not posting news.  Shut up, it’s complicated.  I care enough about the Tank to throw something up every week though.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY FAKE!
Yes, Week 34 of STF also shares it’s date with Fake’s 27th birthday.  Send us him money!

Yes, there’s still no frontman piece like I said.  Between the new job and House DVDs I’ve little to no time for anything.  Today we’re jumping back to a classic STF format, so sit back and enjoy.

I’ll get back to posting news soon, I swear!  Starting a new job is weird.  I just had my first midnight shift last night, which sort of is when I do my whole STF dealie.

Alright, so I just got the computer up and running.  This is going to be a quick, filler based STF.

Alright, so I didn’t get on the news train this week quite like I wanted to.  I blame these guys.

Only because blaming Half Baked has been played out.  Also, he provided some mixtape goodness, so I can’t pester him.  This time.
This week I bring you:

This my first late STF in a while.  I won’t lie, I have nothing ready.  So, I do have a report ready of what happened.  It’s in a “Jake Rossen from Sherdog Minute by Minute” style.  I’d like to say that this it’s my idea, but it isn’t.

We’re all busy here!  Go away!
Just kidding.  Seriously though, we’re all a bit busy here at the Tank.  I’m working, Fake’s working even harder and Half Baked?  Well, I’d imagine it’s something like this:

Good times.  Onwards!

I’ve got nothing but I won’t leave you with nothing.  It’s been a crazy week for most of us I’m sure as the site has been hardly updated.  Last I spoke to Fake he’s busy and Half Baked, well, who cares?  Sorry HB, I’m just digging for filler.  So as my steam updates, I give [...]
