Heather's cute, but she sounds like she's reading the copy (which she is, I know, but she shouldn't sound like it).

Joanne said, "mashed potater." Ouch.

But Kaitlin - great. She is WAY the best. Hate the dress, love the Kaitlin!

Kaitlin gets my vote. Those other girls sucked and lacked experience. Kaitlin is a little cutie and definitely has what it takes to make it far in this biz...MMA needs someone like her!

Kaitlin was definitely the best! This is a no brainer people! She's clearly the hottest and unlike the other two chicks, I wasn't bored hearing her talk! This girl is just what you need....a little spice and something new... Kaitlin gets two thumbs up!

I think Joanne is the best of the 3. She is already a genuine fan of MMA with a following that likes listening to what she has to say (including me). She has a lot of personality and is great to watch. I would like to see her as the host.

ShortBus- March 12, 2011 at 11:39 pm

Heather all the way. Kaitlin would take 2nd but the last second or so really burst the fantasy bubble. She looked bored and annoyed and that was a super turn off. Now, if she were to win all I'd be thinking whenever I watched MMAshed Potato would be that she hates her job and her life.

Again, gotta vote for Heather plus she should get bonus points for enduring the Rampage Humpathon.

jungle monkey- March 12, 2011 at 12:45 pm

My vote is for Kaitlin since she is by far the best looking and able to deliver her lines. Second place should be decided by a good cage fight between Heather and Joanne with Kaitlin narrating the moves. The winner (2nd place) can then be Charlie Sheen's intern or his next Goddess. Seriously though, Kaitlin is the clear winner in this contest.

Kaitlin was the most natural and obviously has the most experience for the job. The other girls did okay but Kaitlin knocked it out of the ballpark. She's the most genuine and beautiful where the other two seemed somewhat nervous and rehearsed too much. I think Kaitlin will go far in her career and it would be a crime if she wasn't chosen over the other two inexperienced girls. Keep an eye out for Kaitlin. This girl is going to be a star!

B.G., the only suggestion I would have for a video piece is for it to be on news that wasn't covered in an article already. Or have it vary from week to week with the occasional interview segments included into it.

Other than being obvious when reading from the cards, Kaitlin was the best, without overdoing the jokes and her pacing was good.

It's obvious that Kaitlin and her friends discovered u can vote multiple times. She's pretty but boring.

Kaitlin is totally dominating the votes! I will vote for her a million times if I have to cuz she is seriously the best, no comparison. Oh and btw, for all of you who don't know anything about hosting, Kaitlin, #3, is the only one who knows what she is doing. Watch any host on tv, it's about being natural which she is. Please don't make me watch Joanne or Heather ever again. Joanne, grow your hair out fyi

Those old video versions of Ben vs Ben were pretty good.

Honestly though, I have no idea what the point of this series would be, informing viewers of shit they already know without any extra commentary or insight seems kind of pointless. But whatever, I kinda hate this place nowadays anyway, so you don't need take my comments all to seriously.

dranokills- March 11, 2011 at 5:51 pm

I agree with stopdrinkingpee, Its not enough to have great looking girls. video MMA news from people we don't know gets lame after awhile.
Recalling what Fowlkes did with the drink, and the chair, at christmas...that was funny. THAT is how you (BEN) need to do the news. Do it yourself...find a funny format, like Rhett and Links "good morning chia lincoln" series they did.
We here at the potato nation admire humor above titties...YES! It's true.

I agree with stopdrinkingpee. I would rather you put you and Chad together for a panel (since MRuss isn't allowed to enter this country legally), and throw Joanne in since she knows the sport and is better looking than you two, and just do an unscripted version.

stopdrinkingpee- March 11, 2011 at 4:15 pm

1. Honestly, I liked them all this time. And not just because they're prettier than Viva and Scott. The guys were trying way too hard.

2. Uh, I guess Heather. But really, they were all ok.

3. That said, I probably still wouldn't watch. I get the news anyway and it's not funny enough to draw my attention. I agree with RwilsonR about the scripts.

4. @BG: What kind of MMA video series would i like to see CP put together? None. It's not what I come here for.

If you really want to do videos, put yourself and MRuss and Chad on camera and make predictions or whatever. Or steal Fowlkes' format; that's funny. I'd rather listen to educated fans and analysts discussing current events than a script that puts a mildly humorous take on last week's news.

I haven't voted yet because I thought they all did pretty well, but I think I'm gonna vote for Joanne now. Maybe it's cause i think she did better than the others, or because she's blonde, or because she has an accent, or because I like saying Spracklen, but i think it's mostly because she kissed me!!

Joanne was good, but she kept her hands in her pocket. Didn't know what to do with her hands. But hey, experience can fix that. Remember what Arianny looked like on her first "UFC Ultimate Insider"; not great.

I also like Heather; she seem more experienced. Also those associations with dry humping might be playing an effect in my twisted mind.

The last one needs a lot more training.

KidDinomite- March 11, 2011 at 1:26 pm

All cute girls. I think either #1 or #3. However I think #1 is the best. she has a kind of nerdy look going, kinda like Morgan Webb from G4. She's my pick.

Admittedly sexist, but listening to girls talk about fights is annoying to me. But really, its just anyone who doesnt know the sport- so many mispronunciations in those videos. But who knows, maybe its CP's fault, considering you misspelled Jorge RIVERA's name in the Chael's quote graphic it could be.

here's your suggestions ben:
1. keep the girl, make her wear hotter outfits.
2. have a new fighter on every week and let him talk as much shit as he wants about this site and all of its asshole commenters *cough*Danomite*cough*. C'mon, you know they all want to do it. It's only fair.
3. Hook me up with Chandella and I will provide weekly videos of us banging.
4. Videotape the bum rush radio show.
5. have brian d'souza do sit-down interviews with fighters. stick them between two fern trees.
6. put hot girls in front a camera wearing as little as possible. what they do after that is irrelevant.

#1 did a pretty decent job of delivery when comparing her to the field of participants. i think with some decent makeup, wardrobe and prep she'd likely be your best bet.
#2 feel the same as Morningwood...After I heard her botch potator I stopped watching.
#3 decent delivery, definately could lose the bed sheet she was wearing.

i'm thinking you should hold another round between 1 and 3 give them some quality wardrobe/makeup, some coaching on the names and pronunciation, and cut the video before #3 can take another crap on the whole process again with her half-baked enthusiasm and you can let the community decide for real. you should definately stick with the female option. your audience is primarily male and a little eye candy goes a long way. there's a reason why nearly all the hosts on those video gamer shows are female....ratings!

Morningwood- March 11, 2011 at 8:59 am

so when the guys auditioned, we all said, "get hot girls to audition."

I thought the first girl did the best, except for pronouncing names. She delivered the jokes well, the reading of the Chael story was terrible but she could be coached from ever doing that again.

The second girl I couldn't watch after she said potator.

the third girl was alright, but flat. Not so much a boob joke as a personality critic.

So, my vote was for #1. Then I watched the Rampage hump video. good to know she's a reporter, a groupie, and a whore! yeah #1 for me please.

#1 - not bad. not good. she was ahh-ight.
#2 - over acts and over gestures, kind of distracting. She's presenting like a model at a boat show, not telling like a news anchor.
#3 - actually pretty good, delivers with a bit of personality but doesn't over do it. Got through the script *almost* like she knew what she was talking about (Chai - el). Best audition, male or female, by far.

However, both Heather and Joanne have more on-camera personality but both need a little help with names.

Bottom Line - having a hot chick deliver a weekly steaming pile of MMAshed Potato is a WIN for everyone. YES! YES! YES!

I thought they all did great and blew the guys outta the water. Heather loses a point for mispronouncing Chael's name. Joanne (I lover her BTW) loses a point for giving Chael a South African accent. So my vote goes for Kaitlin. Or have all three do it together, in a vat of jello. CP, take a clue from Naked News!

@BG Dammit. It's much easier to complain than come up with ideas...

Maybe a wrapup of each event. The outcomes, why BG's predictions were wrong and how much money he lost you, and where the rankings/matchups stand now. I know it's been done before, but if it was funny and informative, it might be unique. You can even come up with a cheesy name for it like 'AfterMMAth'.

2nd one is cute with her slightly british accent but she cant read the king's in-glaze.
3rd is hottest mostly because the sound dosent work so I dont have to hear her talk and I can use my immagination.

Bachelorette #3: Kaitlin

She rushed the very bad Sanchez joke out of the way quickly instead of emphasizing it and making me cringe. Although I don't like how she completely dropped the smile after she was done.

Is there no one out there who can actually say the fighters names correctly and have feel for the satire in the script so it comes off more natural?
