Every so often I take a wander over to Ashida Kim's (amongst other lesser boards) to amuse myself, I don't stoop to trolling, but do have a read and keep tabs on them as they do here.
You can imagine my surprise when I ran across a thread entitled 'Rickson the Immortal'. Getting over my shock I clicked the thread, it currently has only one post and goes a little something like this:
http://ashidakim.proboards77.com/ind...ead=1181800961
The originator of this thread goes by the online alias 'swordofcreation9'.
Still, at least they're not stooping to 'BJJ iz teh ghay' jokes anymore....
Oh, yeah, and in another thread, one dealing with banning Bullshido trolls no less, aikidogirl reveals her respect for Phrost.

Sound kinda sucks, but it's a rare clip of Rickson and Royler doing their thing. [And Rickson's very cute wife.]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTdk7Id3Rhc
This one has some kewl music mixes, and nice Brazillian Hip Hop.

To me, Rickson is like the Bret Hart of Jiu Jitsu. Both have suffered losses in family, both preached healthy and clean living, both were and still are extremely inspiring, also both were the BEST at what they did when they were in the game. With minimal shit-talk. Love it!

Rickson and son, tribute. [Yes, his son's name was ROCKson!]

And to brighten the mood after the last video, this is a BRET HART tribute video. Soundtrack is the timeless song by Creed "My Sacrifice". Did you know there was a child dying, and one of his last wishes was to be buried with a Bret Hart action figure?
THAT'S Martial Arts. That's what being human is all about. That is what life is about. Forget about the psuedo-tough guy bullshit over on Bullshido. They've never helped anyone, and wouldn't know a good day if it kicked them right in the ass.
[P.S. Any Bullshido reading this, and I know you are, I have some words for you: Come to Fresno. Go a dry cleaners on *Cedar and Nees*, the northwest corner, perfectly situated by a brand new ATA Tae Kwon Do academy. Do not come on sundays or wednesdays. Those are days I'm not working there. Come in the afternoon.
Ask for James. And you got your chance to fight a "TMAist", and also an Ashida Kim message board poster. Double-whammy.
Basically, "Go to Fresno. Ask for James. He will kick your ass."
I'm not saying I'll win. I'm saying you won't win.
We fight on the spot, in the nearby dirt field, one-on-one with no rules. You do your thing, and I WILL do mine. Then I'll go back to work.
"Sirc", you live in Fresno. You're up.]

No, you know what... he's actually a GREAT Jiu Jitsu player.
There, I said it.
