Gong Sau Extravaganza 2013: Sirc vs. 3moose

**W. Rabbit** · Posted On: 12/01/2012 12:04pm

Rudy once accused me of being a paid Bullshido troll. He probably still thinks I am.

I find it offensive someone thinks I would take those jobs away from illegal immigrants and Chinese kids.

Personally I think Rudy is a probably a fine guy, he just needs to work on fine the art of acquiescence.

Oh and to stop acting like he's trying to get cast on the Jersey Shore spin-offs.

GTL is dead, homey. It died in a fury of sand and foam.

Rudy has stepped up publicly, which is more than 99% of the people on this board.

True.

He does not whine about being a hobbyist or any other bullshit like that.

Except he brings up his little grudgematch, often with a revisionist story of what happened, on EACH occasion.
I dont have anything against Rudy, I simply feel he's irrelevant as long as he is still caught up with his hurt ego and trying to talk his way out of it.
If he'd simply make some thread about his history, how he got to train, where etc, I'd actually be interested to read it!

Like him or not, he speaks some truths as well. But, he has become a whipping boy for the collective here because he does not fit the "reformed TMA guy mold". I have no issues with Rudy, never have.

Hmm..I dont know what to think of the whipping boy remark, maybe I missed some stuff, but from my pov he tends to get **** for his retarded posts and his very bad manners.
I know Rudy can be funny, and ive plus repped him more than once for that, BUT 90% of the times >> I read him <<< it's all sauerr and insulting and calling out..so yeah.

I also have no issues with Rudy, he's just there posting stuff, sometimes I respond to him, mostly I just read over him.

Who cares? Drama threads bring the irregular posters out of the woodwork like roaches when the lights go out.

I feel the same way. I don't think Rudy is the most well adjusted poster out there, but some of the newer member's disdain/contempt for him seems totally out of place. If you have no history with Rudy, why are some of you trying to pick an e-fight with him?

Don't know if I'm included in this...I just think the guy acts like a douche sometimes. He likes the do the whole "who the hell are you again?" thing, as if the mighty Rudy not knowing someone somehow de-legitimizes their martial knowledge or ability (like he did with Battlefields earlier in the thread.

No, just the opposite. He talked a big game about being able to throw down as Kungfudoeswork. Which is way fucking worse than anyone saying they're a hobbyist and sucks.

I'm the epitome of Bullshido's Hobbyist. I started training 2003, on and off. I have a very faded blue, I don't care. It's not my priority in life, it's a hobby.

As a CMA dude against a BJJ guy, it followed the same script as evey other fight of that type we saw back in the NHB days. In that context, he did better than the norm.

How long did those fights usually last Matt? Lasting less than a minute isn't doing better than the norm.

Also, I'm not sure Anthony compares directly w/ the seemingly veteran bjj/Vale Tudo guys who I saw in vids, schooling the kung fookers.

Oops, gotta play. Toodles!
