isn't it time black belts competed for free?

as we all know, the nationals are coming up soon in Melbourne.

A-does anyone agree that black belts should be competing for free?

B-do you think John Will could at least cough up and give competitors a t-shirt this year? he is known a major tight ass

A-No.

B-Who cares about a t-shirt?

I might be stating the obvious here... But I think left nut is quiet a negative fellow.... Phone Post

Leftnut is the best thing to happen to this boring ass forum... Phone Post

Thats the problem, the success of a forum relies entirely on the content/the contributors.

Is John Will Brazilian?
I thought you only bitched about brazos?

Are u Brazilian Salami Strangler? Phone Post

I'd say no, because he didn't finish his sentence with "my fren..."

What difference would it make if I was?

Just a question mate... No need to get upset... It's not my fault your not Brazilian... Phone Post

funniest comeback i have ever heard.

You come up with something negative at the same time every year. I thought you weren't going to attend anyway, so why do you care? Phone Post

To try and salvage some semblance of an actual topic discussion, why do you think that BB's should compete for free Leftnut?

well i thought as some people seem to have this illusion that black belts hold some sort of 'grandeur' and are considered to be the " elite/main event " that they should be invited to compete and show all of us nobody's their skills.
and by judging by the LACK of amount of black and browns that compete at some events (sometimes NONE)
eg. EVENTS BJJ. ZERO black belts and 3 browns in total.
NOT ONE black belt from gracie, roots, machado, nova etc...
eg. NSW Federation Comp. 3 Browns in the whole competition..
i just thought as an incentive to organisers they should compete for free.

But what would i know ?

Maybe they all save themselves for the JOHN WILL nationals!!

Plenty of blacks and browns compete at the Pan Pacs.
You know, the most prestigious event on the competition calendar.

oh i thought ADCC trials were more prestigious.
ya know, trips to abu dhabi and prizemoney.

not this pan pac rubbish where you have to buy matching shorts and rash vests before you hit the mats.

so, salami strangler you are wrong.

but then again, what would i know...

This....What Does Marketing Fraud Mean?
Illegal practices perpetrated by a company in the promotion of a product or service. Marketing fraud often centers around making false claims. This includes exaggerating the qualities of a product or service, selling imitations as the genuine article, or hiding negative aspects or side effects

leftnut - oh i thought ADCC trials were more prestigious.


It was just an example.
Bottom line is there are a number of high level comps around where browns and blacks roll.

Maybe you could cough up some sponsorship and prize money for these hokey NSW comps and it would lure the black belts out?
