an exerpt from a thread over on judoinfo that is discussing Ronda's move to 70kg..
"you are right!!! i concede to your higher knowledge, understanding and superrior experience in the aforementioned arena.
my stupidity had me believing that my simple dozen years worth of cutting weight {blah, blah...} actually meant i understood the topic better than somebody who has "sat back and watched" what others do, gained a few pounds from a fairly common rib injury, and made absolutley bone-headed, flat-out ditzy comments about Ronda's move up to 70kg.
i'd like to say i am "sorry" to you now.. but, in truth, im not. and, in even more truth, these crude, rude, "oh-so-hurtful" comments might be coming from me--but i can guarantee you that they are flashing in huge Tokyo billboard neon letters across the mind's eye of nearly everybody who has read this thread. i am just honest enough to not hide my thoughts and let you know that on this particular subject, you have been a complete and total bafoon. (I KNOW, 2-F's in BAFFOON)
some other time, some other day it will be somebody else.. perhaps even myself. but for you-- today is your day. this is your moment in time. you have taken the prodical cake, spread german chocolate frosting, rainbow sprinkles, and added a scoop of ice cream along the side. congratulations. job well done."
on a side note... i am stating to teach the Dimelo to two of the HS kids at my club... fun times!
