But ya know the regulars are cool, and hav gotten through some squabbles, but
this school marm rating this site a 2, if pretty wrong, what are you a Moron, or
what? If you don't like the site stay the hell of the site, and hey don't
bother coming back. You are off your noggin|

site because I admired Jerry Quarry and am a true fan of boxing and its
participants. But I went back through this site and saw some disturbing posts.
One particular person (RS) used this site to peddle smutty allegations against
greats or near-greats like Emile Griffith, Lenox Lewis and Oscar Bonavena. To do
that was very wrong. Put simply, they didn't deserve to be called
faggots.RS also levelled allegations of fixed fights, corrupt fighters,
and shonky referees and judges. No evidence was forthcoming, but the allegations
were left to fester for time immemorial on this site. What was even
worse was when I saw that two persons (RS and Forest Ward) used this site to
demean the medical condition the great Muhammad Ali suffers. Given that Jerry
sadly suffered a similar affliction (one of the truly saddest things I have ever
seen), I thought it insensitive and repugnant - expecially since it was on his
site.That others did not find such talk sufficiently offensive to speak
up says more about them than it does of the dissenter/s. So, if the
tenor of this site is to sit quietly while unfounded or repugnant allegations
are freely uttered without sanction, then it is not surprising that from the
entire boxing world you are regularly visited by six or seven fans.That
in itself is an indictment that resonates much farther than the harshest
cricitism from the most vocal dissenter. |

RS said those things nobody criticised her. For instance, I remember that Paul,
KooKoo and others did. I didn't like that posts about Bonavena too, but she
brought so much to my life (great words such as ain't, bum etc.) that I just
couldn't forget. On the other hand, who in this site never wrote a NOT PERFECT
post ?She wrote many clever and intelligent posts also.I consider her a
friend and I am sorry she is not on this site anymore. She is definetely better
than Pol Pot, in my opinion.Also, I don't remember her saying that she
receveid sexual enjoynment from Ali' to be (or from the fact that Ali is)ill.

marn, I never used this site to demean the medical condition of Muhammad Ali.
Either, learn how to read and think correctly, or print my posts in full and let
the reader decide|

WASHINGTON||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Gerry: I LIKED RICH JACKSON, but it was
another Bronco from around late 60's early 70's "STONE WALL" JACKSON, whom I was
referring to, a man Alzado actually feared, or at least he said it on "classic".
This is when Denver was like 1-13.Jackson beat up Raiders great tackle BOB
BROWN SO BAD they carried him off the field in the 3rd Quarter!! And this was in
Oakland. I saw him about kill Billy Kilmer(then of the Aints!) on a sack.you
know the quarteback that the Philadelphia Eagels made a living legend, and made
George Allen forget all about ROMAN GABRIAL!! Take Care.|

Schoolmarm doesn't understand is that sometimes when the topics get a little
offensive, someone from the Quarry family, in this case Brandi, Mr. Jimmy's
widow will ask us to tone it down out of respect for the memory of Jerry and her
late husband. So sometimes personally I will not challenge someone offensive as
they often just go away if the subject does not continue and by ignoring
someone's illogic, the subject can't continue. So no more responses are coming
