Question Blue Belt Gi Video from NAGA

**henno** · Posted On: 7/27/2010 6:02pm

I have clearly established that the ref gave three points for a guard pass in error.

The coach pointed that out and the ref corrected his error.

Our major point of dissent is you think that he should have got 2 points for a takedown, but again I have clearly established that the rules state that a takedown when bottom guy has both knees on the ground is worth an advantage only.

We may have a different point of view (and I completely respect your right to hold a differing view even if I don't think that it is valid), however my point of view is supported by the video evidence and the IBJJF rules.

It's all very well to cry about how you've been dicked by stupid rules or bad calls, but haven't we all. Start a thread about stupid rules.

Zapruder, maybe you should read the whole thread before you make a stupid post.

Point taken.

There are many threads on this very subject. Someone asked for clarification on a rule. I mean you are telling people not to "cry" while crying about your treatment by Omega.

Zapruder, maybe you should read the whole thread before you make a stupid post.

Why? You still posted your last two. Your point of View is supported by your opinion. Omega used the very same rules to point out a differing opinion using the same video and rules.

Not so. Omega has made no reference to the rules. Where I have pointed out his opinion is not supported by the rules, he had a rant about stupid rules.

Agree some of those rules are absolutely retarded. They should not award the "lay-n-pray defensive warrior", but encourage taking offensive risks. ****, BJJ is boring as **** enough to watch without encouraging the development of dumbasses whose greatest position is the turtle.

So....not even a blue belt yet I take it. Comprehend what I am saying before making another snarky comment

Royler is in town and I'm testing for purple next Tues night. All going well, I'll have a shiny new purple belt next week.
