I’m fine with it :)

Tried to enlist at 33 after 9/11. At 240 pounds they said come back when you lose enough. In my weakness, I couldn’t get to the required weight.

I boxed for a number of years in my late teens and 20s.

And I’ve always thought if you haven’t boxed and you are watching a boxing match you are watching something you can’t possibly fully understand unless you’ve boxed. EVERY punch hurts!! :)

Not an insult. Just the truth.

What Mattis said was the truth.

And YES. Cardio boxing is for faggots :)

I never could understand that rule. Trust me you’d have been 180 and rock solid after boot camp.
