Disney/ABC and their social media
Disney/ABC
and social media
Disney uses
social media a lot. They have separate facebook and twitter page for all there
resorts and cruise lines and what not. They also have their own blog and
youtube page. The blog contains posts about the parks and the engineers and
architect. The posts are also about the new features of the park from new snack
shops to new deals. The youtube channel
shows the construction of many different things in the parks from rides to new restaurants. The facebook and twitter pages focus on
advising people of their new deals and bundle packs and promotions.
It would benefit
any family or person greatly to follow them on facebook or twitter for their
promotions and deals that they are offering for the season. The youtube page and blogs would be for
anyone who is interested in the behind the scene things involved in creating.
ABC gives
easy access to their social media. On the
main page there is a twitter and facebook links to click on. The facebook page has updates for all the new
shows and reminders of when to tune. It also
has exclusive sneak peeks of the new shows.
Twitter is more of the same, but without videos. Most the tweets are
just reminders of the new show line up and reminders.
If you
avidly follow the new ABC shows it would be very wise to follow them on
facebook for their promotions and sneak peeks of new shows to see if you’re
interested. The twitter is useful if you just want to get quick reminders of
their shows.

UFC on FX 2 Predictions
Main card predictions
Thiago Alves vs Martin Kampmann WW
This fight is almost gauranteed to be a barn burner and would most likely be my pick for fight of the night if it the card wasnt stacked with the new flyweight divsion. both of these guys come to fight and always entertain the crowd. Kampmann has been kind of treading waters as far as rankings goes recently but some of that can be attributed to a controversial decision loss to deigo sanchez and former strikforce champ Jake Shields. he has very good stand up striking with 7 tkos but generally uses range and precision to accumulate damage throughout the fight(maybe thats why he's been getting these decision losses) and he uses some very effective kickboxing and his ground game is improving but not top notch and doesnt have a whole lot of BJJ to go with it. now with Alves we have a ball of fury, having fought GSP once and losing decidely and since then for a while seemed to be digressing, but has come on full force in recent fights and definitely shows some serious fire. he also have good stand up, but he throws haymakers and goes for the KO, but is very effective it and his ground and pound is brutal just because of how strong and nasty he is in the cage. both men are trying to solidify themselves at the top of the division and this being the main event this fight will be all out i expect.
Prediction: Alves wins by TKO stoppage
Demetrious Johnson vs Ian Mcall Flyweight
This fight my pick for the FOTN but it really is a toss up between this and the other flyweight fight. this is first anyone will see of the fylweight division in the ufc so these guys will come out guns a blzing without a doubt! last time we saw johnson he was on the losing end of a decision to the Bantamweight champ dominick cruz, who said that johnson was the fastest person he had ever fought by far and that is a very big endorsement. he has a very strong wrestling base and good ground and pound but his quickness makes him very effective on his feet and holds KO power in both hands. Mcall right now is ranked as the number 1 flyweight but that kind of doesnt mean anything because he's been the only fighting a 125 for some time(outside of the UFC albeit) he has very good hands and is extremely creative with him but doesnt necessarily have KO power, but says he was born to fight and loves fighting. he has wrestling in his background and is explosive in his takedowns but not the the extend that johnson does. both of these fighters are goin to bring it since this is for a place in the championship fight so it really could come down to who wants it more so this has been a hard one to call.
Prediction: Johnson via split decision
Joe Benavidez vs Yasuhiro Urushitani Flyweight
Another fight to look forward to! Benavidez is an awesome fighter with only two losses on record both to bantamweight champ Cruz who described him as a smaller version of Urijah Faber. He has constant movement and really has had no weakness accept being smaller than his opponents. He is quick on his feet and does have KO power and his takedown are extremely explosive with awesome ground and pound because he is so active. Urushitani is pretty unknown to me but is very good as well, being the current Shooto 123lbs champ. I didnt look in to him a whole because i just didnt see the point judging by his opponent, no offense though bro dont come at me.
Prediction: Benavidez via UD
Court Mcgee vs Costa Philippou
Mcgee is the TUF season 11 winner and has been progressing in each fight since and this a step in competition for him. he has adequate striking but doesnt have a lot of head movement or great footwork so that can get him in trouble but his wrestling is very good and he is very good with submissions off his back or on top. he has goes either 100% striking or 100% wrestling in the past which isnt always a good thing when you don't miz things up for your opponent.Philippou is a very good boxer with power and accuracy making this dangerous for Mcgee. he doesnt need much space to put off his power punches so thats very good when he's in the clinch or scrambling back to his feet. he is respectable on the ground, but he is definitely going to look to keep the fight standing. so he can uses his punches and knees.
Prediction: Philippou via TKO stoppage
There you have my predictions. i will also be live tweeting during the bouts to keep you posted on the action.

New weight division: FLYWEIGHT!!
It's finally happened!!
the UFC has finally implement the 125lbs Flyweight division and I couldn't be happier!! any true mma fan will love this decision by dana white and co. the only ones that won't are the ones sipping on haterade because they're fat and think that because of their size they could beat them in a fight and other bullshit reasons, but this weight class is gonna kill it in the UFC!! the new division will bring a lot more fast paced fights and also mean that some of the undersized 135er's will drop down to make the competition some of the best in any division. These little guys can fight for days and are constantly moving and not getting tired like a lot of other weight classes. the inaugural bouts for the division is going to be grand prix formatted to determine the first champion, so it will all be on the line for these guys!! the bouts start tonight on FX between Joseph Benavidez vs. Yasuhiro Urushitani and Demetrious Johnson vs. Ian McCall for the semifinals of the event with the winners obviously moving on to face eachother in their next fights to determine the champ! stayed tuned for my next post on my predictions for the fights a little later tonight. dueces

UFC 144 results coming soon
later today i'll be posting the results and discussion of the main card that was pretty frickin' epic!!

"yes floyd, you're racist!"
that is a quote from UFC president Dana White reacting to a tweet that floyd mayweather posted in regards to all the hype that has been surrounding NY Knicks new point guard Jeremy Lin. mayweather
"Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he's Asian. Black players do what he does every night and don't get the same praise"
.... Really floyd?? I mean come on man, you're clearly delusional if you think thats true. Just off the top of my head i'll say something about Lin. He didnt even get drafted out of college and was cut from 3 teams in the last 2 years. just two months ago we was sleeping on a teammates couch for christs sake!! this kid comes out of not even having a team that believed in him or a bed to coming off the bench and then thrust in the starting role without any previous amounts of extended playing time, and you know what he did floyd? he led his team to 6 straight wins WITHOUT the teams 2 best players (melo, and amare) or their formerly starting PG (baron davis)
He freaking set the record for most points in the first 5 games started in a career with 136!!
I'm not sayin floyd mayweather is a racist but he definitely doesnt know what he's saying right now... and he sucks and should just fight pacquiao already!! what, is 25 mil not enough for you? ass

UFC Overload Introduction
Alright well this is my first time blogging, and I got to admit I feel pretty awkward... But whatevs it's for a grade. My product will be UFC Overload. So if you want to keep up with the UFC or your favorite fighters or just want to see some sweet highlights stayed tuned because this is just beginning. I plan to video blog before and after every event held with my personal picks and then the results of each bout, and plan to include any highlights that I can. When there are no events I will feature a different fighter each week by posting some highlights and giving information/my opinion on them. I will also be posting any story I think someone other than myself might find interesting that is related to the UFC. Man now that I wrote all that out I think could actually be pretty cool hahah well fingers crossed!
