Oh plenty. ā€œDrunk and stupidā€ covers most them though. The last 2 were just to see if I could.

The only thing preventing me from going back to a flip phone is my camera. My cell phone camera is the only reason there’s proof of my family’s existence.

I know the flips have cameras but I like being able to identify the people in my photos.

$1,500 flip phone. Think I will have to sit this one out.

Cryptic post alert…

I’m quite happy two of my favorite guys here are exposing how arrogant this certain poster is

I confess that the only reason why I find it stupid to compare players from 50 years ago and now is that the players from now, in all sports, are faster, stronger, and overall better in almost every single way. Advancements, and fuckloads more money have guaranteed that. Yes, the football players in the 60s and 70s were tough and crazy motherfuckers. But they were almost all slower and weaker than the guys they have today. It wouldn’t even be a competition. Kids are groomed from birth now to be pro players.

And that unfortunately includes Mayweather vs Dempsey @T3hPwnisher, doubly so, because even though Mayweather is the least exciting, biggest douchebag boxer in history, he’s a defensive mastermind in ways that weren’t even on anybody’s mind back then. You look at footwork and conditioning in the '20s vs now, it’d be unfair. If we allow for Jack Dempsey to be born in today’s era and train like they do today, then sure. But if we scoop him, at his best, out of his era, and put him in the ring with Mayweather, he’s probably not winning a single round, and he’s going to land very few punches.

This would be an interesting discussion

Yeah, that’s why I said if Jack could be transported to our age and trained this way, I’m sure he’d destroy Mayweather. But advancements, drugs, training, drugs, diet, drugs, knowledge, and of course drugs have made things pretty uneven.

Eh, Jack is a heavyweight while Floyd is a welterweight at his highest. I don’t think it would be a fair match.

Now you take someone like Jack Dempsey and put him up against Deontay Wilder…

I could definitely amend the ā€˜better’ part, they’re just products of a more streamlined process, is all. It’s just unfair to compare them.

I actually never quite understood why some people are so passionate about comparing specially from other eras (but hey, whatever floats your boat, right? we all need to pass time somehow). I just like watching and appreciating the sport and athleticism, even if I don’t play that sport in question

Reminds me of this lol

Seriously though, watch it, it’s a good laugh! He’s really a talented comedian

In fairness, I was going to force Mayweather to fight in the rules of Dempsey’s era, when you didn’t have to go to a corner and there was no standing 8 count, so stuff like this could happen

He seems to love traversing different forums commenting like he’s an expert. I loved the way that thread progressed, everyone stayed cool while he got so angry.

ā€œI told someone on Instagram they were benching wrong and everyone called me an idiot. Who could have predicted the EXACT SAME THING would occur again when I proudly shared the story about itā€

You mean the guy who’s pissed off by all the ā€œfagsā€ at his gym but started advising a half naked guy in the physique forum about the best brands of boxers to wear, because that’d get him better reviews?

That guy rocks.
