I'm beginning to wonder if money is more important to him than integrity. He certainly is presenting a double standard. Oh well, if King screws him over again then he can only blame himself. Like the saying goes, "Fool me once .... shame on you. Fool me twice .... shame on me".'

Either that or the people who actually vote on this stuff got their head stuck in that anatomically impossible place. Something to think about anyway.

So I watched the news instead and played with the grandkids along with eating some breakfast with them. It made for a nice morning so maybe this stuff can happen more often.

Hell, right from the get go Lorenzo got worked good and busted up badly from legal shots. The so called punch at the end of the fight had nothing whatsoever to do with the outcome. To think otherwise is just outrageous. That's my take on it anyway.

How are they biting out west?
As far as fishing, I do most of mine in the winter and some in the spring. Come summertime it's get out the BBQ, swim in the pool and eat ice cream.
Beautifully said sissy. I couldn't agree more!vikingprincess wrote:This was great! Nice Straycat & everyone for their comments.
I joined this website a few years ago right before my dad got sick, hoping to have another way to bond with him while he was in the hospital, I knew he'd have his laptop open to The 13th Round while stuck in that place. =] The 13th round diddnt bring me closer to him at the time because he got too sick, but "meeting" you all here after he passed and reading all of this is so touching and always has been. You guys are a great bunch. Boxing did bring my dad & I together when I was a kid. There wasn't anything I loved more than sitting next to him on the couch & watching a good fight. I'm thankful that I had such a great dad, I'm thankful for the fights, & I'm thankful for The 13th Round. Let my dad forever live in our hearts, & boxing forever bring us together.
Thanks guys

To me, it means the boxer no longer possesses the physical and/or mental capacity to perform at the peak level he was once capable of performing at. A variety of circumstances can contribute to/cause one to become "shot": old-age, physical deterioration, mental/emotional fragility, poor training regiment, diet, injuries, etc.
The point is, when a boxer is shot, he is well beyond the apex of his abilities in the ring. He's several steps into the downslope of that, and all that remains is a shell of his former self.
Agree? Disagree? Anything to add/tweak/change?
Some words really don't need a definition. For instance, if it's a sunny day outside then I really don't need to define the word "sunny" in weather terms. The same can be said for "shot" in boxing terms.

The Showtime broadcast doesn't start here until 8:30 pacific time unless I want to pay $25. They do this stuff all the time and it really pisses me off. So I'll probably watch the HBO card and then switch over for the Miranda/Abraham fight later.
They are asking you to pay for the card that is live but will offer the replay directly after? That's bullshit.

ScapposeJohn wrote:No you won't. Just wait a while. When you mature more then you'll grasp the meaning of KSTAT's story. We may very well be dead when it happens but this stuff continues to repeat itself. It will happen with you too. You can bank on that.RimmyJice wrote:KSTAT124 wrote:On my 43rd birthday, my daughter, before wishing me a happy birhday, uttered the words, "You're getting old!'
That was over 16 years ago.
Recently, my wife, my daughter and her boyfriend, my son, and I went to breakfast for Father's Day.
During breakfast, my daughter reminded me (she's so thoughtful) that on my next birthday, I'll be turning 60.
At that point, my 17-year-old son, James, chimed in, saying to my daughter, "You know, Lauren, the year I turn 21, you'll turn THIRTY!"
Age was no longer a subject during the breakfast!
That is a horrible story, KSTAT. I'm going to be in my 20's forever!!!!

On ESPN someone had started a thread about Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Mike Tyson (1986-1989) at a catchweight and there were people actually saying that PBF could win a decision against Mike because Mike would never hit them.
This was in tribute to that thread.

Man you guys must be old
Just playing, you can't beat a weekend filled with BBQ and fishing.
Anyway, enjoy your celebrations.

The short answer is no. Just because property is owned jointly does not necessarily carry over to being responsible for debts owed outside the property. It can vary from one state to another and it always good to check with an estate attorney on these issues.
BTW, you can't inherit a house/property if you are a co-owner. An interest is already established. However, you can inherit the remaining percentage owned by the other person. Along with that comes a step up in property value along with clearing any leans or debts that may have incurred against said property in order to gain a clear title. So, in other words, you're not going to walk away with a clear deed and not put out any money, even if it is clear of any outstanding moneys owed.
Thanks, Scap.
