know who James liked better, I just couldn't resist saying something.How<br />

do you like my all time list of nuts? I can't remember some of the other fringe<br />

characters but it would be funny to have a top ten list.Hey fan, are<br />

you, "you aint nothin but a hound dog?" If you are who I think you might be,<br />

you would know what I am talking about. If not, then never mind. If you are<br />

who I am talking about, then I won't reveal who you are as that is your choice.<br />

Michael Spinks beat Tyson if the fight were held in <strong>January</strong> of <strong>2006</strong>? Give<br />

Spinks a few months to train and get in good shape. Now that he probably<br />

wouldn't have the fear of God in him that Tyson could kill him---since club<br />

fighters seem to be having their way with Tyson lately, I wonder if Spinks could<br />

take him? |<br />

few unwise words some 40 years ago. He called people a few names and upset the<br />

apple cart. So what ? It used to be sticks and stones will break my bones but<br />

names will never hurt me.I wonder how many of you guys slagging him can<br />

see things through his eyes. Are any of you guys black ? Was he subjected to any<br />

racism ? If so, was he entitled to react to it. I don't like what he was saying,<br />

but it doesn't hurt me that he expressed an opinion differently to mine. He<br />

never raped anyone, either. It's not like he was out there bashing old<br />

ladies, burning babies, and robbing people. He was just out there expressing a<br />

different political and religious opinion than the mainstream white guy. And he<br />

was a loudmouth, and what's worse than that is that he was a black<br />

loudmouth.Les and Steve - you two guys were in Vietnam. Did you go to a<br />

horse race track there called Phu Toey (or something like that). It is in Saigon<br />

and they race ponies there and of course they bet on them. Apparently a big<br />

battle in the Tet offensive happened there as well.Massimo, welcome<br />

back. I was about to send out a search party.Kent, what do I have to do<br />

to make your list ?|<br />

in your list ? This site would be nothing without Jumpity Bruce!<br />

Jump,jump,jump,jump! I think "<strong>The</strong> Italian Stallion" is a funny and good<br />

character and will bring something to the table (it's Nevada Slang) for the<br />

future.Steve-As far as I am concerned, I have nothing against<br />

people from New Jersey! I have nothing against people from Arkansas too! But,<br />

sincerly, I don't know about people from Oregon...I have a lot of friends from<br />

Oregon, almost one half of my friends are from Oregon!Noam-Hi! I<br />

don't agree with Muhammad Ali' not going in Vietnam, I think he should have gone<br />

first because the war was a war against comunism and second because it was his<br />

duty and he wasn't any better than all the Joe(s) who went there! But, on the<br />

other hand, I think he had some scusanti...You call me nigger, you don't allow<br />

me to use busses, you don't serve me in restaurants, you treat me like a beast<br />

and then...Abruptly...When you need me, you want me to fight for you ? I know<br />

what it means to feel you don't belong...Being white in Italia in 2005...All<br />

jokes apart, the sensation you don't belong and you are a second class citizen<br />

has to be awful (even if I have never lived it personally) and, even if, as I<br />

said, I think he should have gone, I also understand that black people in the<br />

60s were very angry and insoddisfatti. |<br />

Masimmo, Ali should have gone to the war. Perhaps he had problems because he was<br />

black but this country also gave him lots of privileges and protections as well.<br />

When it came time for Ali to repay, he wouldn't go. He didn't pay his dues. Ali<br />

said "no Vietcong ever called me nigger". True, but Vietcong were killing his<br />

countrymen and that should have been enough to make him want to fight, because
