the saddest thing about you is that you probably don't even realise that you are
an intellectual snob. You wrote, "My allegation that most of you are uneducated
and in fact not especially intelligent." Not having had the opportunity to
attain high education is a crime, is it ?" And you imply that people have a
CHOICE about being intelligent or unintelligent. In fact, you mention it ad
nauseum, ensuring than everyone on this site recognises you as the bigot you
are. Further, the first utterance falling from that bloated overfed face of
yours was that you are some Hollywood 'big shot' of 40 years standing. Wow, that
answers it. Now we all know why you're so smart and grammatically correct. Guess
we all should remember you from some Godfather film, eh ? And, Giancarlo, to
denigrate a dead man who never claimed to be anything other than a boxer, you
raised accusations of arrest records, DUI, narcotics, womanising, brawls etc.
You don't have to be a boxer to have sinned. In Hollywood you don't get an Oscar
until you've sinned seriatum. Anyway, you're probably too busy to be thinking up
any more insults about all us dumb folks. You and your Hollywood mindlikes are
probably tied up consoling poor old Michael Jackson. Wacko might be a child
molester, but at least he ain't makin' dumb ass grammatical errors like us
uneducated dumbos on the Quarry site. In Australia, Giancarlo, intellectual
snobs and 'big noters' and bigots who talk ill of the dead in front of the dead
person's family are fed to the crocodiles. |

did you hear Jerry utter racist terms or do you know someone who heard him say
these things? But even if he did, does that mean he had no character at all?
Because after all, he may have uttered such things in a time of anger and they
were isolated incidents. It seems to be a subjective opinion on your part that
Jerry was racist and while it is also a subjective opinion on my part as well
that he wasn't, people such as Joe Frazier, George Foreman, and Muhammad Ali
were counted as being friends of Jerry's and these three men would hardly
associate with anyone who deep down detested them because of their race. They
are, in my book, good judges of character. Besides, some people could make the
same argument about Ali being a racist but I don't believe he is. I believe Ali
made some mistakes in his life and he learned from them and he is a better man
because of these same mistakes.Yes, Jerry had a criminal record but that
just shows he made some mistakes in his life, that he wasn't perfect. The only
thing I can go by is my subjective view as to how someone treated me and while I
barely knew Jerry and our paths only crossed on a few occasions, he was a
gentleman towards me. Although this is another subjective opinion on my part, I
can usually tell the content of someone's character just by looking in someone's
eyes. What I sensed was that Jerry was a decent fellow.Is not your
critical post about the grammatical errors and education level of some of our
posters in itself an ad hominem non argument? Content can often still come
through even when structure is not accurate. Attacking ones' education level
proves nothing but your own arrogance.Also, your view that Jerry got
creamed in several of his key fights is subjective as well as I can say he
didn't get creamed (my subjective feeling) and we can go back and forth all day
long and not prove anything.At least you did acknowledge that Jerry was
better than you alluded to in your post but I am not sure how you could think
otherwise if you have seen all of Jerry's fights. Yes Jerry was a class below
Ali, Foreman, Frazier, and Holmes, but he was ranked as the twenty-seventh best
heavyweight of all time in Ring magazine's list of the top fifty heavyeights
ever and that goes a long way to show Jerry was a great fighter.|

Mike Quarry, who once lived and trained in Florida, once told me they fed
intellctual snobs to the alligators in Florida. I wonder which animal could eat
