Raise your hand if you don't care that the Super Bowl is on

[IronFist]

I'm just studying and then watching the commercials when they come on. I don't like football. I'm not a very good American. I don't like Basketball, either.

"Super Bowl" is that something to eat or hang around your neck??

:D

[dezhen2001]

nah i dont really watch football (soccer to u guys), or any other sports like that. not interested in the slightest, prefer to watch things like the olympics, especially gymnastics and the track/field events.

Super Bowl is American football.

Havn't watched football for years. For that matter, I don't watch TV period (full stop for those of you that think soccer is football). :rolleyes:

[awakenwired]

I couldn't even tell you who is playing. Lol.

[dezhen2001]

ironfist: i know that u mean 'american football' but we rarely have any of those games here as in the uk its mainly soccer so i used that :D

dnc101: um... foot + ball = soccer right? lol :D

[awakenwired]

Lol, funny communication breakdown. Football to Europe is soccer to yanks, however football to Yanks is not soccer to europe. More like rugby no?

[dezhen2001]

yeah more like rugby, except in rugby theres no padding and stuff :)

like i said i dont watch or play any so not sure how they are really different :)

No, we are watching some stupid musical in my house. which is why I'm on the internet on a nice Sunday evening :rolleyes:

Never let the Women know the remote controlls the TV!!!!!

The Superbowl's on?

[Chang Style Novice]

I care. They pre-empted my Fox cartoons for some dumb movie, since they didn't want to waste airing new episodes against the superbowl.

I did get to see some 7 year old iska fights on espn2, though.

Could've been worse.
Could've been the Paul Mitchell Tournament. :eek:

[Chang Style Novice]

It was actually pretty good. Two of them were fought under muay thai rules, and Ernie Reyes Jr. scored a big ko on Anthony Elsaid (or something) with a straight right. And Pajak Lek did some excellent throwing from the clinch, but got ate up by ooutside roundhouse kicks from Ryan Simpson, who was about a foot taller and had abs that looked like a shrink-wrapped six-pack of apples.

The women's fight in between was pretty lame, though.

[dezhen2001]

u mean Ernie Reyes Jr. of ninja turtles 2 and surf ninja's fame? :eek:

Yes.

[Chang Style Novice]

Indeed. His kicks looked good, but it was boxing skills that got him the KO.

Team Paul Mitchell at least has good hair........and strong lungs. They can't fight or do forms (open hand or weapons) for ****, but their hair never moves....you notice that?? And, the ONLY way they can win is using creative wushu forms and gymnastics stuff....so much for your HARD styled teams huh?? :rolleyes:

~Wen~

[Chang Style Novice]

I don't consider hair that can't move to be good hair.

[wushu chik]

Uh, depends on what you're doing!!

~Wen~

[Chang Style Novice]

Hmmm...they just accounced a couple of guys that do "chinese boxing" on the iska reruns. I'll be back in a half hour or so.

ESPN2, kids.

edit -

Okay, that was WAY less than half an hour. Mike Altman gave Art Palacios a bunch of right hooks to the head in the first round and it was lights out in 1:22.

[dezhen2001]

i have hair that doesnt move too! :D

thats cool stranger - i thought he just did forms and movie stuff, so its a little uplifting news for me :) must be getting on a bit now... mid 30's?

good timing, I just caught the first round ko on espn2.

I watched a crazy kung fu flick "Mantis Fists, Tiger Claws"

A woman gets pregnant by a praying mantis and has a daughter
who is a weremantis and turns into a mantis every time she
has sex and has to kill the guy she just had sex with. !!!!!!!

Above average fight scenes but a crazy story.

next fight...

[Chang Style Novice]

Seems he turned 31 a couple of weeks ago. (http://us.imdb.com/Name?Reyes+Jr.,+Ernie)

[Oso]

dang that was quick, alex gong is FAST.

[Chang Style Novice]

Oso -

The next fight wasn't much of a fight either, huh?

I wonder how old these fights are?

Holy mackerel! They just accounced Cung Le is going to fight!

[Oso]

welll, cung le is up next. so, not too old.


btw, I just picked up the dvd for that kf movie I watched at
Suncoast. Only 9.99 and it has 2 movies on it. The second movie
looks really bad. www.rarekungfumovies.com rates MF,TC as
4 stars and the second movie "Duel of the Brave Ones" as 1 star.


ok, the announcer just said that cung le's fight was a
"kung fu affair" and cung le's opponent is about to get his
a$$ handed to him I think.

[Chang Style Novice]

Yeah, that Garrett guy looks like a tomato can right now. Cung needs to ease up on the axe kicks, though.

[Oso]

hey, I've got a new hero. If an overweight white guy can last
that long against cung le and actually hit him a few times and
negate a couple of cung's techniques then there is hope for me
yet:)

[Chang Style Novice]

I didn't notice him negating any techniques...but I like your attitude! I'd have been turning my socks yellow in that guys place.

[Oso]

well, imo, he stopped the two axe kicks but couldn't get the
throw out of it either time. But, I think he had the throw the
first time he caught the axe kick but pulled it because they
were on the ropes. He stopped the kick but did NOT even
come close to following up w/ the throw the second time.

The sweetest move he had was just a simple flank to evade a
spin kick of cung's. He wasn't aware enough to follow up, again.
But, he completely read the kick and was moving before the
kick fired out of the coil.

all in all I think he did very well vs. cung le. Better than anyone
else I've ever seen fight cung but I've only seem maybe 6 CL
fights.

cung le is just very tight in every thing he does, very aware.

[Chang Style Novice]

Oh, yeah. I forgot the axe kicks. I even mentioned them upthread!

This is the first time I've seen a full CL fight. Like I said - based on what I saw, fighting the guy would be a real bladder problem for me.

so, how about that 'creative breaking'?:p

[Oso]

lol, my girlfriend (an ex tkd 'breaker') just got disgusted with it.

I'm feeding the cats:)


but, yeah, he stopped the axes, and had some decent defensive
movement. I'd be tickled pink to get to the 3rd round vs. cung.

although, in a rare moment of ego, I'd like to get in there just to
jam that da mn scissors takedown he keeps suckering people
with;)

[Laughing Cow]

Looks like this "Super-bowl" thingy is finished now.

[IronFist]

Ok, I actually watched most of it and I must admit it wasn't too bad. A few parts were actually exciting. Oakland got screwed a couple of times by bad calls. But whatever.

I didnt care that it was on TV, but I think its pretty neat that I now have an extra 300$

Go bucs go, lol!
