Ye, I came to post that thing too. Apparently a deal has been reached for mcgregor to fight mayweather and it seems its the last mayweather wanted to do for his final record breaker fight. pathetic really. fighting a guy 0 professional experience as a boxer.

Definitely pathetic. It will be a permanent stain on his record. He should be fighting GGG.

also the scoring is crazy too, guy was not aware and could have made the scoring go into robbery zone.

ya that is crazy

NCAA = disgrace.

Yes you're right, it's not cool to celebrate that kind of anger/rage.... but don't get me started with politics/propaganda/etc

to me, the context of it being associated with "the greatest quote in boxing if not all of history" is what annoyed me.

Tyson has some crazy quotes.. Some of which are pretty good.. The one you listed is batshit & was said in a time in his life where he was in a downward spiral, always contemplating suicide. If you strip the politics & social issues out of it, to me (my opinion) it's still not a funny quote.

He has some great quotes..

This one is legendary: "Everyone has a plan 'till they get punched in the mouth."

Brutal: "I've lived in places these guys can't defecate in."

Truth, lmao: "When Jesus comes back, these crazy, greedy, capitalistic men are gonna kill him again."

Real shit: "Real freedom is having nothing. I was freer when I didn't have a cent."

Truth: "It's good to know how to read, but it's dangerous to know how to read and not how to interpret what you're reading."



he's got tons of gems.. so I guess my main issue with your original post, is that you picked one of his shitty quotes he said while partially crying out of manic anger.

Stamos should have been posting his Movie reviews in a thread like this, and linking in his journal. Would be a big thread.

This Self/Less movie is decent. Never cared to watch it but came in on an interesting scene, then restarted it. Only halfway through but, enjoying it so far.

happy for GSW & especially Durant.

Got his ring. Woulda rather seen him get it on a less stacked team, but whatever.

Agreed on Durant. That's the silver lining of GSW winning.

Devo for CLE. Should have just given JR the ball every play the last 2 minutes.

ya man.. that was disappointing.

CLE should have been fouling like crazy the last ~3 minutes.. and then doing what they were doing on offense, very intense attack or kick it to JR Smith.

TBH, they "gave up" (edit: or more like, just accepted the L), they didn't fight to the very end.. and they lost by 9. They had some key missed opportunities in the last 2 minutes, turnovers/bad D - but that was because they had already given up imho.

JR Smith was automatic tonight, should have fed him alot more.



Would have just liked to see them play it more like an NCAA March Madness finish, where you keep fighting up until < 10 seconds, even if you're down 10.

Agreed 100%. They looked tired and accepted their fate. The shit thing about that is some of the greatest comebacks have happened that way. McGrady anyone???

yup.. mcgrady, miller, bird, etc.

never accept your fate.. by accepting it at 3 minutes, they gave themselves no chance to pull out the "miracle", and that helped contribute to the little mistakes/turnovers at the end, which looked so sloppy.. with no one near the boards for offensive rebounds. Bad look..
