Attack Of The Pacmaniac!

Posted by on Apr 28, 2008 20:15

If you stumbled onto this blog in the past couple of days and read the comments on Tim’s latest posts then you can tell we have another infestation of Pacquiao zealots.¬† The influx of comments appeared after Tim dared to place Manny Pacquiao at #3 on his Pound-For-Pound list.¬†¬†Such a travesty obviously could not go unpunished so for the past couple of days Ring Report has been the center of scathing insults and all around “not nice” language.¬† The funny thing is after taking some laps around some of the larger Manny Pacquiao fans sites it is clear that the sentiments shared by those commenting here are not shared by the vast majority of Pacman fans.¬† While the may not agree the respect ones right to say it.¬† Furthermore the majority tend to think that those who attack Tim to be a poor representation of a Pacquiao fan.¬† Look, we here at Ring Report, Tim and myself, welcome ALL comments.¬† Sh*t, I’ll be the first to say that I suck and some of my opinions are WAY off base but the crap that is being said here borders on psycho babel.¬† Again while we welcome all comments we only RESPECT clear and concise arguments and opinions.¬† Think Pacquiao could have destroyed Ali and Joe Louis within three rounds on the same night?¬† So be it, but don’t resort to childish schoolyard name calling if I don’t agree.¬† I too think that Pacquiao is a GREAT fighter.¬† He is a sure-fire Hall of Famer and I have him ranked #2 on my P4P list but good god some of you crotch sniffers take your adulation of the man to an unhealthy level.¬† To call a writer “racist” because he does not think Pacquiao is the greatest fighter to ever lace up the leather is just plain f*cking stupid.¬† By that logic, Tim is hateful of the white race given that Calzaghe is only ranked #2.¬† Then again I told Tim that joining the Black Panther party would cloud the judgement of his Pound-For-Pound list. I really don’t have¬† a direction with this post but figure I would put my $.02 in on the subject but hey thanks for stopping by and may the great Manny Pacquiao bestow great tidings upon your home, end poverty and find the cure for cancer.¬†
