Thiago Alves is fighting John Howard at UFC 124 and we're all going to like it

Thiago Alves is fighting John Howard at UFC 124 and we're all going to like it

A couple of days ago on MMAJunkie radio, Mike Pierce called out Thiago Alves and had some pretty decent smack talk regarding Alves on Facebook. On Twitter, Pierce said 'This place is as dead as Thiago Alves' and 'Thiago Alves to be featured on Biggest Loser on Dec 23rd'. He even asked Dana to gi...

Joe Warren vs. Joe Soto comes on TONIGHT!

It's the only MMA any of us will be seeing this week, so if you vehemently hate the sport of mixed martial arts, despise equally matched title fights and refuse to see spectacular finishes, don't watch Bellator 27 tonight on Fox Sports West. Your friends will make fun of you behind your back, but ...

KJ Noons thinks Nick Diaz is a trash-talking, pot-smoking chump

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Nick Diaz and KJ Noons rivalry, the beef started back in Elite XC where a controversial doctor stoppage handed Diaz his only loss in the past 3 years. Winning a fight due to a doctor stoppage in the first round is a lot like winning a competitive ea...

If you missed the UFC Fan Expo, Bloodstain Lane has you covered

In all fairness, the entire MiddleEasy crew was supposed to go to the UFC Fan Expo in a taco truck and serve up carne asada goodness for fans of the site. Sadly the idea didn’t work out after we learned that tacos are not an approved cuisine at the John B. Hynes Center. Not sure what Boston ha...

Karo Parisyan is BACK in the UFC!

I could be looking too far into it, but when Dana says that you '[Expletive] the UFC' by pulling out of the fight the day before weigh-ins, it looks like that may denote a lifetime ban. In fact, it did constitute a lifetime ban in the promotion, but in ZUFFA years, a lifetime is only ten months....

Overeem accepts Fedor's challenge, plans to fight him after K-1

The greatest thing about Alistair Overeem accepting Fedor's challenge to fight him after he's done with the K-1 Grand Prix is that he actually watched a Bloodstain Lane video on a message board and responded. Next step for Alistair Overeem is to accept my friend request on Xbox Live. The guy plays...

Dan Henderson and Gegard Mousasi may get the next Strikeforce title shots, despite coming off losses

A lot of people criticized Strikeforce’s decision to give Brett Rogers a title shot immediately following his loss to Fedor Emelianenko last year. This past spring, Ubereem agreed with those critics as he made short work of Rogers and ended his first title defense in just shy of four minutes. ...

Carlos Newton demonstrates a one-inch punch and throws a Wu-Tang reference in for good measure

Carlos Newton should be undefeated based on how cool he looks. The same goes with Sokoudjou or any other guy that competes in MMA with a full set of dredlocks. We all wanted them, but our parents firmly held onto the belief that long hair was a gateway drug that led to smoking marijuana, wearing t...

Support a Caged Fighter: You leave a message for War Machine and we'll send it to him in jail PDF Print E-mail
Written by Cat Von C   
Friday, 30 July 2010 06:12

When you are far from home, stuck in a 10x10 cell 23 hours a day with a guy whose name is 'G-Murder', there are few things that can brighten your day more than supportive letters from friends. As a show of support, MiddleEasy has decided to host a 'Jail Mail for War Machine Campaign' to thank him for all the entertainment he has provided us with over the last couple of years. Unfortunately, the San Diego Sheriff department only allows each inmate to receive a limited number of emails each day, and yesterday by 10am War Machine had already received his daily limit. Well, we have decided to provide a place for everyone to post their own personal message to War Machine here in our comment section. We will print each one of them out and mail them to War Machine. Who doesn't love to get an extra special letter in the mail from time to time, right?

Here's the message I wrote for him this morning:

Dear Jon (hahaha)...I mean War Machine-my bad,

Hope this letter finds you in good spirits. I was in jail once (for a couple of hours) so I want to offer you a list of some rules to help you get through the next 50 or so weeks in the slammer. Have you ever seen the movie 'Zombieland'? Some of the rules in that movie apply to prison life so you might want to check the prison library I've included a couple of them in the list.

1. DO NOT DROP THE SOAP. (just don't drop anything for that matter, EVER.)

2. DON'T TAKE CANDY FROM STRANGERS...they will expect something in return. G-Murder wants to give you a Blowpop so you will blow...( I think you get the idea here)

3. BEWARE BATHROOMS. Just like in Zombieland, bathrooms, showers, any small enclosed spaces-just don't go in them. Matter of fact-who needs to shower in jail anyway. Be funky, it might save your monkey.

4. DON'T DRINK THE JUICE. I once knew this dude who went by the name 'Atomic Nucleus' who said 'THE MAN' put something in the juice in prison to control your mind. He also said that eating pickles caused impotence though so...

5. STOP CLAIMING YOU ARE WHITE. 69% of all backdoor violation victims in prison are white-FACT. I probably wouldn't claim to be Asian either if I were you.

and finally...

6. LIMBER UP. Just like in Zombieland the last thing you want is to pull a muscle or throw your back out in the middle of defending your dookie shoot. Do some yoga in your downtime-just make sure when you do the downward dog pose your back is to the wall....on second thought, just don't do that pose at all, OK?

Follow those rules, and you should be able to survive the next year unharmed. Keep your head up, brah.

Alright, now let's see what words of encouragement, advice or questions you guys have for War Machine. Post a comment below and we will print each one off and send it to him.

Add this to the rule list:

7. DON'T TOSS THE SALAD. I'm not quite sure what it means, but it must be food related.

Keep it up War Machine!

Sorry about the prison thing. When you get out of prison, please stop ducking my phone calls. I don't bite. Good luck in there.

Hey war, i don't know if my comment, or some of these unfunny ones will get to you. But I know being taken advantage of won't be a problem for a guy like you. Hope you can stay in shape the best you can while you're in there. I know you are going to try, and that you want to get back to fighting when you are out. Best of luck. You'll be stronger for this. I hope you change your life when you are a free man.

My friend who was in solitary said to make friends with the guards, you get extra perks, such as some extra free time, food ( you need extra nourishment in there because your meals will not keep you in shape.)
He also continued to tell me about eating toilet hot dogs. steal hotdogs, then make a fire in the toilet and cook the dogs. fucked up huh. try it maybe.

While changing your name to War Machine may have been the most prophetic thing you have done before going to prison you might want to consider balancing out the grenade tattoo with a peace symbol on the other side and changing your name back to Jon or even going with Peace Monger. This might look good in the eyes of the parole board and the judges to show them you have really changed your life around. Now you don't need to get all Jesusy(sp?) on us and find god but maybe just a little bit of those tears we saw on TUF when you talk about your family or life in general may help in the court room or appeals board. But for Christ's sake don't do that shit in the yard or in the cell block. That shit will get you killed.
Peace out War.

Dear war machine,
I have been a huge fan of yours since TUF.Prison is tough and the closest i have been to jail is the holding cell, but keep your chin up. I know its gonna be boring; my daddy went to jail and he said it was boring all day. Just try to read and keep yourself in shape so when you come out you can fight again real soon after you get out.

i'm not a big fan. and your the dumbass for being on here if you're just here to talk shit to him or me. like you know prison so well. if they wanted to kill him they might but people won't just fuck with a pro fighter. if anything they might try to get him in their gang. you're a fucking idiot. of course he was being a dumbass. doesn't mean you should waste his and your time by trying to fuck with him. your a bigger loser than you sound like.

War, I hope some queer dont ask for a salad tossing, hate to see you kill a queer in there, not cuz I defend them, I just want to see you a free man again.. but if you do shank one, you might as well get 20 or more.. so if I end up getting locked up, you lessen my odds of getting some big black dude eying my back side..

hello Mr Machine,
How's things, I'm not a fan of yours and couldn't give a shit about anything you do. It is quite funny to read about you fucking up you life but after a while it become quite sad. You are clearly a troubled man, I would like to see you sort your life out and find some direction. Give up fighting because you will never make it back to the UFC or to any decent or half-decent promotion, and from what I remember of you I didn't like you. Respect for stepping in the cage but you're a total wreck of a human being and a fucking idiot.

Good luck in prison, I'm sure it isn't as bad as they say it is.

Much Love OverHand
