I obviously don't watch a boxing match with defense being the primary focus, but much like in baseball when you have two aces going, you can't sit there hitting beach balls and doing the wave expecting 12 runs being scored. If you want that, there are plenty of other non-professional leagues that you can get your offensive fix in. But to think less of baseball because you might go to a game where a pitching match up breaks out is no reason to think Sunday softball leagues are better because they can light up the score board.Originally Posted by seal
DS I seemed to be in a confused state yesterday, no it wasn't due to any intoxication so I have to chalk it up to age related brain burps. I thought your response was from T-rex so that's why I was confused about what I thought his comments on MMA vs boxing were. My take on pitching duel vs. batting has much more to do with the fact I only get to see a couple games a year in person (long drive from the high desert) and if I go I'm normally in the outfield bleachers, love hanging out in the sun with the rest of the beer drinkers. So since I'm a ways away from the plate it's more fun to see a few blasts come my way. Use to get tickets behind home plate when I lived in the OC but those tickets these days would kill my fishing budget for the year.
Only thing I won't take back is my Dodgers comment, lol. I will admit to coming back to the blue side of things a little more the last couple years, grew up a blue boy, ownership change has me a little more receptive to coming back. I really didn't like what was going on with the Dodgers for several years feel the same way about the Lakers, fair weather fan I guess.
Sorry about the confusion, I tried to delete my response as soon as I figured out I was an idiot.
Back to the fight. Pacquiano is in a bit of hot water re: the shoulder injury that was not disclosed yet he got an injection for it which the drug testers were aware of. Think fans should be more pissed at him than the woman beater Mayweather. Sounds like he had a significant injury. Hell I'd be pissed also if I'd put any money down on him, certainly if fans were aware of it the money changing hands would not be as great and might have affected pay per view ticket also.
Should be suspended. They say he could also be fined, like that will have any impact after the jackpot they just hit. Yea Pacquiano is the good guy, right.
I'm hearing so many random things. First, Pacman's team asked for the cortizone shot days before the fight and was denied by the boxing commission. Then I hear he tore his rotator cuff outright during the fight. (Having suffered from a partially torn rotator cuff thanks to baseball, I can only imagine how difficult it was to actually fight). Then I hear he could get fined, he could get sued.
It's like Days of our Lives here.
In any case, that's why you always hedge your bet. I spent $100 to make $200. Not quite Mayweather figures, but at least I know how to read. :-D
(He's gonna be pissed when they read this to him)
How about who cares?
