  1. What i mean Bird is he was a NATURAL heavyweight....i think he fought most of his early career just shy of 16 stone but he had the frame,substance and natural strength of a heavyweight from day 1.....where Holyfield didnt......Holyfield started his career as a 12st 7 lb fighter, the last time Tyson was 12 stone he was probably about 9 years old
  2. There was a time when i felt the same " its only the internet " and all that........but the longer time go,s the more i realise it might not be a bad idea if some people were held accountable for things they write..............ok its not important and if you really dont like it dont turn the switch on......but it makes you wonder how much more of a polite place the internet would be if folk thought they might actually have to explain the shit they write sometimes in the real world !!
  3. When talking about Bobby Czyz being a puffed up light heavyweight its easy to forget thats all Holyfield was,a puffed up light heavyweight who could of ruled the Cruiserweight division for as long as he liked....but like many before him the lure of the heavyweight division dictated the rest of his career.Tyson was a full bloodied heavyweight with the bone and substance of a heavyweight......Holyfield was a manufactured heavyweight who used his superior boxing skills and brain to defeat larger stronger opponents..... As boxing fans many people were excited by Tysons aura and the menace he brou
  4. It just doesnt work like that....we have a boy here Mark Noble grew up round the corner who said from day 1 he refuses to play for any other club than West Ham............while fans love that sort of stuff its not realistic if you had a loyalty to Tescos its not going to stop you working for Asda if the price is right.......and rightly so.......the ONLY loyalty in football comes from fans everybody knows that.
  5. Nice aviary that Spartan good for you .....whats the plan then all Canaries or a mixture ?
  6. So just because West Ham have produced more big name international footballers than any club in England....that means they shouldnt be able to buy other English footballers !.....I wonder how many players actually play for the club they support !!
  7. Must admit ive not watched that documentary but i think the first fight they had was everything thats great about boxing,the fact it wasnt for a title or big money made it even greater it was just a man against a man that with no malice or nastiness neither would back down.......Fights like that you leave a piece of yourself with each other as you get to see a man from the inside.....i cant remember what round it was but the round that Gatti went down from the body shot is still one of the bravest 3 minutes ive ever seen in a boxing ring !.....head shots you either absorb them or you dont,but
  8. Blinding post that !.....I dont think faith can do any harm whatsoever in being a parent id give anything to have another crack at being a parent with the understanding of life and faith i have now compared to back then.
  9. The bonus to Carrol coming back is obvious as he,s a good player.....the downside is it encourages us to smash long balls up the pitch even more than we are already.....i,ll be amazed if the boy sees the season out without another injury or 2 you just cant put all your eggs in 1 basket like that.

    . Yeh and managers Who have had ten years in the prem and won fook all throw the towel in every time the play a top four side , tactical inept dont get good over night either lol Do you think Everton were a good enough side to win trophies over the last 10 years then ?
  11. Some of the mentally strongest people ive ever come across.........you are calling weak !!...............which tells me at the end of the day we all see whatever we want to see and thats why religion is such a private and individual thing.
  12. Was just an observation mate you sound like you are a little further along than i am in your understanding.....i know what feels right and maybe we can never be 100% but me still being at the " gathering information " stage thats the only reason what you said stood out and didnt sit right with me.....thats all

    I still think they will nick 4th place good players dont become bad overnight.
  14. Much as i want him gone he wasnt altogether wrong on this occassion on another day we would of won or at least got a point out of the game we wasnt outplayed at all i didnt think Newcastle were anything special.
  15. Thats the first post you have made on this subject i dont agree with Wilf.......i think a lot of people who fall into a christian life do so in dark times in their own life through desperation,loneliness or simply hitting rock bottom.......does that make them a " better " christian than somebody who " just is "........personally im at the stage where i have more questions than answers but am a determined enough person to pursue it until i ultimately find an answer that suits my thinking.......i have found the type of person you speak of just comes on too strong and will attempt to overpower yo
  16. Couldnt agree more.....i could of been the best chess player in the world IF.................i could of been the fastest sprinter in the world IF................if,but,s and maybe,s dont come into judging sports stars yet never in the history of sport has an athlete had more excuses given him than Tyson has.....i blame the era he dominated.... when boxing was watched free on tv by passing fans and the whole rocky story with his trainer and baddest man on the planet carry on had massive influence over impressionable youngsters. When you look at it head on what possible reason is there to think
  17. Did you go today Wilf ?....Terrible result should of taken all 3 points.....2 open goals my mrs could of scored and where we picked this blind centre half Roger Johnson up from i dont know !.............Give them Geordies there dues they brought some numbers !!
  18. You see to me ,,,that sounds more like you believe in Mother Nature ,,, and nothing to do with a "God",,,,, and I bet most lads on here can relate to that,, I know I can.... Why does it.....the fact i feel uncomfortable and cant concentrate in a church around other people......but i can feel comfortable and concentrate in remote peace and quiet is just the way i feel at ease ....................if i felt comfortable enough in Tescos thats where i would go.......mother nature as you put it.... is the tool i use to connect with God....not the tool itself.
  19. Go to 31.45 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2IYN5e3f0c The program gonetoearth is on about is on Fox.....channel 165 now......started at 10.30.
  20. Totally agree Higgins was a great talent of his generation as Jimmy White was of his but of those naturally gifted players none can compare to O Sullivan i think its almost freakish to have that much natural ability from such a young age i remember an interviewer asking the darts player Phil Taylor if his talent was a natural gift or hard work......he made reference to Ronnie o Sullivan playing left handed and said " with my left hand i cant get 3 darts in the board........hard work "
  21. We,re at home mate....but yes i,ll be over there as always.......a win for our little mobs could see us both move up a few places as Fulham and Cardiff are unlikely to get anything
  22. Ive noticed a fair bit of noise kicking off the last week or so i didnt realise things got going this early though.....how do they suss that then as the daylight hours are hardly any longer than before xmas ?......is it worth putting out any nests and such yet then ? Im only talking about Canaries not anything too complicated
  23. Common sense and common decency apply to any subject in any language.....Some of the best dogs i ever owned in the past were given to me .....i fully expect some of the best birds i ever own in the future will be given to me...................but i never have or ever will ask a man for either and will be fully prepared to pay top money for quality.
  24. For me i always feel too on edge around churches/cathedrals etc....feels like everyones looking at me and i feel uncomfortable even though i know im there for the right reasons !..............Ive found being close to nature a beautiful thing,i dont think its a coincidence that in recent years the closest i felt to God was the closest i felt to nature that being a mad rambling week alone up in the Scottish Highlands in complete silence with nothing more than a passing bird in the sky for company......whenever im in need of a chat with the big man i find myself wandering to the most remote place
  25. Im not trying to be a bright spark im still in the curious/learning stage on the whole subject......but you say its weak to follow a leader......yet if your beliefs are based on science/evolution as opposed to spiritual/design.......then are you not simply following a different leader ?......are you not making a choice just like anyone else ? Surely unless you just look out your window and say " i think.................bla bla bla " completely off your own back..............then you have to base your beliefs on something ?......meaning the leader you follow ( evolution ) is essentially sci
