Attention TracyKarate
Tracy,
Here's a thought...
Have you ever been around elite miltary or fighter pilot types? They're brimming with attitude and cockiness because what they do everyday is more dangerous than the average "civilian" can even contemplate. A lot of these guys are fighters. They do it probably for the same reason I do...because we're too dumb to be good at anything else, and because we really, truly love it. Now I am not trying to make excuses for the people that run their mouths for no reason, but you have to understand that a lot of the people you think are showing disrespect are slamming people that they know and train with. TKOU said it in a reply to your post that we train hard, and sometimes we hurt each other in training, and we deserve to be able to bust each others' balls a little. (Yes TK, the safety is up...watch the root beer!!) and I think that maybe you're the one that's a little out of line. The people that read the posts like that know exactly how it is meant, and chances are, they're laughing like hell right along with it. The ones that don't may take it the wrong way, but that's the price you pay for free speech. I know that there are some guys out there with nothing better to do than to talk and challenge, but really...there are plenty of posts here without that vibe, so stick to those if the other stuff offends you. Go read the informative stuff, and let guys like BigBird, Yella, and Aloha have THEIR kind of fun. Me personally, I'm going to keep reading the stuff, because it's funny as hell, and I'd like to train with these guys somewhere down the road and see if they're really any good.
All I'm saying is, be careful not to make your opinion and your rather limited view of what is said turn into some gospel tha you have to ram down everyone's throat. Or you could always jump in the NHB ring and find out why these guys love it so much...
Mike
