members are alcoholics (you who has a problem drinking too much beer, or so you<br />

claimed). You who pretends to know what what members on this site are gay. And<br />

then you attack them for that. And in each case you never met the persons. You<br />

are an evil personHoward C, I stated you would jump to Noams's defense,<br />

and so you did. Howard C have you ever been called a NIGGER? No, but I am sure<br />

you and Noam use that repulsive term in your private<br />

conversations.Acusing me for "relentless niggling." When a Jewish person<br />

goes shopping do you refer to them as, "trying to jew someone down." Do you<br />

consider Joe Frazier a "House Nigger."You guys should be banned from<br />

this site, you are both diabolical people|<br />

Pete a pass on misinterpreting the word "niggling" as similar things have<br />

happened on a larger scale. A couple years back, a member of the Mayor of<br />

Washington D.C.s cabinet was asked to resign (I can't remember if he actually<br />

did resign or not) for using the word "niggardly" which just means stingy or<br />

frugal/cheap. Yet a bunch of people thought he was being racist and ganged up<br />

on him. I could see how Pete might have thought the root of "niggling" might be<br />

something negative. I don't think any of us knew Pete was non-white though, so<br />

even if we wanted to take a cheap shot using the "N" word, how would we know he<br />

was a person of colour?Willard: Believe it or not, I never saw "Ali" all<br />

the way through. On a business trip, I saw the beginning of it on HBO late at<br />

night, but couldn't stay up for it. I did see the movie Ali himself starred in,<br />

which was "<strong>The</strong> Greatest" (made in the mid-70's). It was far from a great motion<br />

picture, certainly no Raging Bull!!! Also, from what I've heard, you're correct<br />

about "Ali." It shows us Ali the boxer, but not Ali the man, imperfections and<br />

all. You're probably right that it was a lot of fluff and tribute, though as I<br />

said, I didn't see it. I can't believe Ali's IQ was accurately measured to be<br />

under 80, though I guess anything is possible. Still, he starred in "Freedom<br />

Road" a television miniseries, and had to read and memorize lots of lines as he<br />

was the lead character. He's also traveled abroad to meet with heads of state,<br />

recorded albums of music---and in interviews, he seems bright, not stupid at<br />

all. As I said, maybe he has a very low IQ, but my guess is the test was skewed<br />

or not accurate for some reason.As for in-prime Frazier giving Foreman a run<br />

for his money. Ummmm, no. Sorry, but styles make fights, and Foreman would<br />

have pounded him in like a railroad spike every single time they laced up the<br />

gloves. Foreman would never lose. In fact, I'll go as far as saying that<br />

Frazier at his very, very best, would lose to an out of shape, out of prime<br />

Foreman. In my opinion, Foreman just needed to show up and land a few head<br />

shots early (Over and over again against a myriad of opponents, it was proven<br />

that this is simple to do against Frazier.) and Foreman would always have the<br />

finishing power to KO Frazier. <strong>The</strong> danger would be Foreman getting tired of<br />

watching Frazier get up after knocking him down over and over. Kent:<br />

Speaking of Foreman, you keep bringing up the quality of his opponents/title<br />

defenses. Are you limiting this to pre-Jimmy Young Foreman? Let's not forget<br />

that while Frazier has been in retirement, Foreman came back as a guy in his<br />

late 30's, boxed into his mid-40's, fighting Holyfield, Cooney, Moorer, Morrison<br />

and others. Kent, he had another whole career. You compare the complete<br />

careers of Foreman and Frazier and we're not talking apples and organges or<br />

chalk and cheese---we're talking the Mona Lisa and the back of a cereal box.<br />

This is crazy to even be talking about. Foreman's number of fights, opponents,<br />

length of career, accomplishments, etc. aren't lacking in comparison with Joe's.<br />

a lot of times you sided with Noam and Howard C regarding your feelings about<br />

Ali and Frazier'I don't fault you for this because you were never mean<br />

spirited. But those other 2 guys they are champions of hate<br />

mongering.<strong>The</strong>y bash people for being gay (how do they know this?). <strong>The</strong>y
