re: GMT---The "did the fight live up to the hype" edition

That's pretty much what I expected.

The poster 7th ward is in that thread saying that he sits in his car with a gun everyday and wants to blow his brains out, but ends up thinking about the poster owlie and lives another day.

You can't make that kinda shite up.

one of the most underrated attention whores on this site .. easily .. supposedly, he is a shift supervisor at a plant .. well, to get attention, and to let everyone know he has "risen" to supervisor, he starts a thread the other morning about one of his workers getting hurt and how he violated safety regulations, etc. .. pretty much doing everything the plant's insurance carrier, attorneys, worker's comp carrier, etc. WOULDN'T want him doing on an internet message board .. fricking dumb arse ..

I'm all for posters using td.com as an outlet if it truly helps them with whatever issues they have irl. But I think pj has pretty much numbed me from being gullible to lot of stuff I read on here.

holy crap

and what in the frick does Kafka do for a living ? he posts all night ..

on a lighter note

late last night i got into a discussion with a SUPER liberal chick on FB after she tried to use boxing as a "gotcha" for people who criticized the riots

in her eyes, there is no way to accept boxing while criticizing rioters

her last comment

Mmmnope. Still not quite there but closer. If you swapped the riot narrative with war you're back to explaining a non-consensual act of violence that many of these same people can agree is maybe the answer. So it's got nothing to do with consent.

i'm still not quite sure what that says

this genius drops in later

Boxing should be outlawed, fighting each other even consenting to it, so millions of dollars can exchange hands, many of it by betting that might end up people betting away things they shouldn't like their families belongings and money, isn't a good reason to let two consenting assholes go at each other. Legal boxing shows children it's ok to beat each other till you are senseless IF it's in the name of betting and making a lot of money on it. Having a set of parameters saying fighting is ok as LONG as it's for big bucks is sending the wrong message to our children. Fighting, is NEVER ok whether it means someone, some institution is going to rake in the cash is just wrong. It's wrong to hit your brother, your opponent, citizens of another country. Violence is violence period. The riots were a response to many, MANY injustices and no it's not right. But as long as you are going to show in this country violence is a ways to a means, you are going to be raising a violent attitude, a violent environment, a violent atmosphere of people not understanding what is ok and what is not.

Wow. I would say this place has allowed me to waste entirely too much time

the post starts out with a heart warming tinge to it, so you think it is going to be really touching .. then you find out one of owl's dumb "your momma", "i fricked your momma" type one liners "saved his life" ..

those things are just absolute comic genius!

If you thought FM was going to stand there and go toe to toe, you don't watch boxing. MP is too slow now to catch FM; FM waited him out to ensure success and $$.

You been inside that?
