Finally setup an avatar, what do you think?

[truewrestler]

ok, fairly senseless thread... but can you tell what is going on in my avatar?

The attached file is the original picture

[MasterKiller]

I was hoping to see Jimmy "The Super Fly" Snuka.

[truewrestler]

lol... hmmmm... would a flying armbar be better?

[MasterKiller]

Well, you aren't the "True Grappler," you are the "True Wrestler." How about a pic of some pure wrestler? Who is that monster from Nebraska?

[truewrestler]

Its all Wrestling

[MasterKiller]

Actually, it's all kung fu.;)

[truewrestler]

Actually... its all from India

[truewrestler]

How about this one?

None of these are worth using but I wish I had one from this fight that ended in a flying armbar:

[Starchaser107]

actually its all from egypt:p

[truewrestler]

And Egyptians got it from the Aliens that built the pyramids

[ShaolinTiger00]

The Egyptians got it from the Greeks..

It's all Pancration..

[Chang Style Novice]

People concentrate too much on the names and not enough on what's being done.

Finger...or Moon?

[norther practitioner]

Finger, as I'm from NY... thats what we do.. give 'em the finger. No need to show 'em your ass.

[Xebsball]

its all cave-jitsu
or cave-quan

[SifuAbel]

I wonder what attracts all you non-kung fu types to a kung fu forum. Hmmm interesting.

Not a troll post, just thinking out loud.

[red5angel]

sifuabel, I think for the most parts it's the "bringing the truth to the masses" type attitude that leads them here. It seems a lot of them think they are bringing in something "new" or some new perspective we might not have looked at ourselves or seen from the dozens of others that come through here. truewrestler has certainly been one of the most knoweldgeable and for the most part what he has to say has some good points to it. However for all intents and purposes even he is "trolling" to some extant, trying to prove the right way from the rest of the ways.

[SifuAbel]

well, its has been said that the young have no history.

[red5angel]

I just think for the most part it is ignorance. Telling someone their art does not work or isn't as good as yours without testing them personally just doesn't fly with me. I know it's on an individual basis and it's the person not the art. I have seen both sides of the grappling/striking modern/traditional work.

[Shuul Vis]

It looks like a guy trying to shove his arm up the other guy's a$$ but he missed.

[truewrestler]

lol

[SifuAbel]

I must say that is a neat variation with the head locked in like that. His mistake, trying to plow through while standing.

[FatherDog]

tw: I can tell what's going on, but I've got that match on DVD, so it's not really a fair question :D

[truewrestler]

maybe this would be better: http://www.rusch.se/kbk/bilder/karelin.jpg
