Hey Duce box....did you notice my


"Genuine, guaranteed 100% honest and true Red Smith Quote"? Complete with publish dates?

Now that's the way to quote someone.

I've always thought that one of the best ways to quote another is to actually include what the person said within the context of the quote.

Yes I suppose it's controversial in this day and age, of big mouth flighty opinionated poorly educated ignorant rump & gob swabbers, who make up all sorts of blabbery gobbledegook in order to give their personal opinion a bit of "lift". And yet to take willful action to have the very words that a person actually produce appear within a set of quotes, is a tip of the stetson to honesty, the real facts about something, the things that are true and ol' fashion' straightforwardness. Not to mention it shows that one is aspiring to high moral fiber, integrity and general do goodery.


How do you feel about such things now that we are in a brand spankin' new year? Ready to sign on?

Cuz that sort of stuff is so...2013.

Know what I mean?

Yes...but you often engage in the "make stuff up sort of trash"

and I call upon you in 2014 to turn away from the dark side, and get on board with

truth, facts, reality, and genuine heart felt "true blue-ery"

Be the reporter....not the distorter.

Take something that is real, and give it appeal.

Dare to state the nature of things as they actually exist, or existed as opposed to a personally idealistic or notional idea of them.

This is my suggestion, with little or no expectation of compensation.

I asked Eric Clapton what he thought about your behavior this year, and he asked me to have you listen to his advice for you:

Maybe a judge deducted points for sticking his head out of the ring. Bad behavior sometimes is punished by the judge.

Ever been in front of a judge? They can be cantankerous.

Well.....I bet you always vote the same way. Who's to say there's not two more just like you.

Well, you need to write it first, before he can read it.

I LOVE this day-by-day heavyweight history stuff that Il Duce posts. I'd miss him if he were gone. I take the Ali stuff and the "quotes" with a grain of salt. Il Duce obviously has a lot of knowledge. He's an asset to this forum, as are the knowledgable folks here who call him on questionable "facts". It's all part of the discussion. There's really no need to resort to name-calling or insults, as some do here. Don't like him? Don't read him.

Duce gives us all a ring side seat.

Yeah . . .to his imagination.
