Hardly surprising, from a fella who shows about as much ability to interpret Boxing as my 6-year-old nephew.
I wasn't ignoring the fact that dberry had over looked the quote's section. I was just commenting on the fact that you ARE NEVER WRONG. You think your opinion is correct and rest of us are a bunch of no-brain idiots. You do know a bit about the game, but you refuse to back down, even when presented with facts. I for one wouldn't miss your egocentrism or your exocentric tendencies.

"One man is a mile wide, the other is a mile deep." - Larry Merchant, describing Tyson (the former) & Frazier (the latter). I always felt this was a really, really concise & accurate summation of these two whenever they're compared.

Ric wrote:Why, in the title of this thread, does the plural of cliche have an "apostrophe s," while quotes is spelled correctly (no apostrophe)? (Just one of my pet peeves.) When did this insidious spelling become rampant? I see it all over the place these days--particularly since the past five years or so. Is this what they are teaching in school these days? I doubt it. Or are today's teachers just as lazy and guilty and not correcting their students because the teachers too don't know any better? Folks!!! The plural of things is not spelled with an apostrophe s! Stop it, please!!! :witzend:

ok no problem's :TU: thanks for the english lesson :geek:

"When i was a young fellow i was knocked down plenty. I wanted to stay down,but i couldn't. I had to collect the two dollars for winning or go hungry. I had to get up. I was one of those hungry fighters. You could have hit me on the chin with a sledgehammer for five dollars. When you haven't eaten for two days you'll understand."
