That moment when Cannon's fighter wins, but he sounds like an overconfident douchebag.

Oh, wait for it... lol It gets worse. x-D

[The Sandmen]

I donno man, sure being wrong about winning in the first round is one thing, but talking like a capped fighter surviving until the second before getting decimated kinda sounds worse to me. I mean, sure its fun to rub Cannon's nose in his own dickiness, but I would think focussing on our own fighters performances (or lack thereof) would be more productive. Cause...yeah......D'Alelio.......... 'nuff said.

So you're going to be the dick now instead? I pull a positive out of a loss and not complain, yet you even shit on that man? Seriously?! How about you just fuck off for a change?

Wonderful weather we're having.

Trashing Mocking another member of the site is a positive? Odd.

Sorry dude... It's just that he gets all up in arms when I complain about things, then turns around and does/says shit like that to cause me to complain. It's bullshit. If you don't want me complaining, don't start shit when I'm being perfectly reasonsable. How hard is that? lol

How the hell was that even remotely trashing him? lol It was just simply stating a fact. It will get worse when he sees this. We all know it'll happen. x-D

[The Sandmen]

What part was me being an ass exactly? I just stated some facts like you did.

Fact: Sarah D'Alelio lost in the second round.
Fact: Sarah D'Alelio is capped.
Fact: Sarah D'Alelio lost badly to Joanne Calderwood.

Perhaps the only thing I said in my previous post that was not fully accurate was the word "trashing". Let's replace that with "mocking", and we can all go back to our merry old selves.

[The Rocketmen]

Could we not double post especially when it's shit posting?

Mocking isn't even the right word there bud... You're grasping at straws now because:

Fact: When push comes to shove, you're incapable of not entering into some sort of conflict with me, even when it had nothing to do with you.

Cannon and I have a longstanding rivalry here on the site and we've traded barbs and trashtalk for ages... It's nothing new. You just can't handle it when I'm not "freaking out" and I'm enjoying myself. Why pick a fight with me when there's no need for it?

[The Sandmen]

So when you trash Cannon, it's a long standing rivalry, and trading barbs. When I say you being happy your fighter got the shit kicked out of her in the second round, instead of the first, it's me being an ass, and not a "long-standing rivalry or trading barbs"?

I mean, we DID have a rivalry, but then your fighters couldn't really stand up to it, and D'Alelio had to bail to the FW division, since Carano practically had her head above her fireplace at home. So I guess I get that. I guess I get not wanting to have a rivalry with the best, so you pick at the rest. Carry on, son. Carry on.

Again, I didn't trash Cannon, nor did I say I was happy about the loss either. That's you twisting my words around, as usual, and placing your own valuation on my comments. I said nothing to the fact that I was happy about the loss, all I said was that it wasn't a toughness issue... That's it.

We never had any sort of rivalry with Carano or D'Alelio except that I wanted to beat Carano. Carano's dominated the entire league since the beginning, it's amazing she actually has any real rivalries at all. So no... All this has been is you forgetting to shit on me this card, and you're trying to make up for it now. It's pathetic. Besides, Cannon's fully capable of speaking for himself, he doesn't need you to intervene.
