darksabre Posted February 4, 2015 Report Posted February 4, 2015 It's mixed martial arts. It's no different from boxing aside from the ability to box with your feet and grappling. I have no doubt that if roids didn't come with roid rage it would be legal in sports. Boxers used to kill each other. Good old blood sports. People watch them for the blood. Give them what they want. Roid on. Quote
Hoss Posted February 4, 2015 Report Posted February 4, 2015 Off the UFC topic: Peter King of Sports Illustrated just said, in his own words, that he will still vote for Darren Sharper even though he's a serial rapist as long as he feels he did enough on the field... That's absurd. I can't be alone on this, right? These writers sit around and tweet/write about how the NFL needs to show it cares about women/children by punishing perpetrators of domestic violence on a consistent basis, but then THIS? Oh my. I hope this isn't a more common thought. Quote

ubkev Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 Anyone following this Little League thing? Quote
shrader Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 Anyone following this Little League thing? Did I hear it right this morning, people are actually outraged that they stripped them of the title? What message are we supposed to send to the kids here, that it's ok to cheat as long as your parents do it? Quote

ubkev Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 So, Josh Hamilton relapsed on coke and booze again. Word is the MLB is probably going to lay down some punishment. Is it right or wrong for Major League Baseball to suspend an addict? Discuss! Or don't, I won't tell you what to do. Quote
Hoss Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) So, Josh Hamilton relapsed on coke and booze again. Word is the MLB is probably going to lay down some punishment. Is it right or wrong for Major League Baseball to suspend an addict? Discuss! Or don't, I won't tell you what to do. If he were black this wouldn't be a question. Josh Gordon got crucified for drinking alcohol while under the watchful eye of the drug/alcohol program. (Not saying this at you, per se, because you didn't express your opinion on the matter. I just saw a lot of people on Twitter saying they hope Hamilton can fight this and get better yadda yadda.) Edited February 26, 2015 by Tank Quote
Samson's Flow Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 So, Josh Hamilton relapsed on coke and booze again. Word is the MLB is probably going to lay down some punishment. Is it right or wrong for Major League Baseball to suspend an addict? Discuss! Or don't, I won't tell you what to do. I don't think he should be suspended, especially since it was during the offseason while rehabbing from shoulder surgery. That being said, I would guess that if this is a continuing problem and not just a one-time offseason relapse, the Angels or even Hamilton himself will take a self-imposed break to get his stuff together. Again. Quote

I just saw a lot of people on Twitter saying they hope Hamilton can fight this and get better yadda yadda.) Did Doc Gooden or Darryl Strawberry ever get suspended for blowing lines and banging skanks right in the locker room in '86? It took until Strawberry hit the downside of his career to get suspended, and unlike Hamilton's current case, Straw actually failed a test. Edit: Same with Gooden, by the way. Ten years after riding coke to their WS rings. I'm not saying he shouldn't be suspended, he probably should. I'm just not convinced it's a race thing. But I'm a cynic...

Hoss Posted March 15, 2015 Report Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Awwwww. I remember my first time. Now we can act like there's more than one relevant basketball program in WNY! (I'm just messing, congratulations. Always good when a local team does something special) Edited March 15, 2015 by Tank Quote

LETS GO BULLS!!! When I was there UB was DIII. The only reason I ever stepped foot in Alumni arena was to register for classes. It was a sorry state of affairs, UB has come a loooooong way. Quote
Eleven Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Posted March 15, 2015 i'm loving that UB made the tournament. If it wins two games and retains Hurley, it's a legit program. Quote
