What a lovely twist this thread has taken.
Read this for flexibility and injury prevention, this, this and this for supplementation, this on grip conditioning, and this on staph. New: On strenght standards, relationships and structural balance. Shoulder problems? Read this.
My crapuous vlog and my blog of training, stuff and crap. NEW: Me, Mrs. Macho and our newborn baby.
New To Weight Training? Get the StrongLifts 5x5 program and Rippetoe's "Starting Strength, 2nd Ed". Wanna build muscle/gain weight? Check this article. My review on Tactical Nutrition here.

The street argument is retarded. BJJ is so much overkill for the street that its ridiculous. Unless you're the idiot that picks a fight with the high school wrestling team, barring knife or gun play, the opponent shouldn't make it past double leg + ground and pound - Osiris -

BJJ might make you a better ground fighter, but Judo will make you a better dancer.

Thanks for your patience
Close, but no cigar: The first video from "before Bill Wallace" is from 1962, before the divisions in TKD styles are what they are now. The chicken and egg question is a moot point for me, it was all one big generation of martial arts failure summarized in Bruce Lee's theory of the "intercepting fist," proven in the ring by Bill Wallace, and is carried on primarily in point fighting but also to some degree in the TKD community.

And my main point here isn't about lineage or the origins of Bill Wallace's technique or the origins of Tae Kwon Do. My main point here is that Wallace's technique (regardless of it's origins or weather anyone in TKD ever trained with Wallace,) is now found ONLY in TKD as a full contact technique, so that now at least certain styles of TKD are the place to go to learn Wallace's really horrible kicking system:

I am saddened and disheartened at the amount of spite, hate, and immaturity developing in this thread. You all need to look deep inside yourselves and ask "is this the way an adult should act? How can I learn to control my rage in order to have civil discourse with others?"
The solution, of course, is that you all need to join a TAGB TKD school. Only by training in a true traditional martial art like Taekwondo (with proper instruction from a TAGB-certified teacher) can all of you become better and wiser human beings! -
