You are more cerebral than the primates i train, so i ask. Why catch?

You slay me, Gi.

Is there something about you, or your club,
that attracts primates?

Yes, theres an ATT school down the street, but it charges way more(we
charge 70 a month for 365 days a year access and if you can pass the
test and want to fight for us, you can opt to pay us only a portion of
your winnings and no monthly fee at all) so we get the poorer and the
guys who think gi's are gay, and the racists, and if you are a
wrestler we dont make you do guard for 5 years before you can
fight.and we let guys spar MMA day one.And when a kid tried our club
whod been at att for a bit and said "the instructer there said you
guys basically just threw guys down and punched him in the face, and
heres where to learn just that kinda fighting" i said..."exactly, well
said.and here i was thinking they didnt like us."
and i guess we are in a poorer area, so guys wanna fight to get paid,
not to be van damme.and we got a sweet scary looking cage, its bigger
and better than the one the WEC uses, i am happy to say after having
rolled in that, but still it's a cage.and we dont care about style, we
have no real syllubus i just say "heres a takedown, now we do a few
armbars, now heres a cool move i saw at naga yesterday..ok thats done,
now we roll for 8 rounds 4 minutes, then we do 4 rounds mma and go
home...oh its your first day? yeah well all you gotta know is to
tap..now heres a 5-0 mma fighter to spar with.Rules? well, do to him
whatever you are comfortable with him doing to you".i tried running a
commercial bjj type gym, but its work, and wusses quit in a couple
months even if you coddle them.so *** it, we just look to the just
escaped mental patient market.

you think of them?

its funny cause some biker chick comes in last week with her 14 year
old girl, she sez "she wants to learn grappling" and she starts to
leave, theres just like 5 of us in this class, 4 have fought pro, age
from 22-39 and she sez "ill be back to get you in two hours honey" and
i was thinking.what a crazy lady, i wouldnt let me neice anywhere near
the guys i train.let alone daughter.let alone if i didnt even know the
guys there.we have a large amount of prison guard members and little
time goes by between one saying "yeah, so the guy i rolled with
friday...yeah your new star, yeha well i know him from..." and they
need say no more.
whats weird about mma is this
you get cops, prison guards, wrestlers, criminals and oddly...fight
nerds.Thats is to say those that arent hardcore killers or athletes
wanting to make money are comic book store types who i guess wanna be
batman.and they GET GOOD.Cause they are smart.and very honest and
loyal people.plus with no *** options they got plently of time to
train.

 Do you enjoy their company?

Sam

yes, very much.im weird and like to be alone a ton, dont hang with
them much, but its really more that i work every day and fight night
or grappling thing every other weekend between weighins, cornering and
what not you are with a few team members all day.so you are together
so much that it really aint needed to hang.the ones my age are married
with kids, the younger ones i just aint got much in common with cept
fighting.but yeah i like em all.even the bad criminals.i mean i got
one guy whos fought on tv who is the craziest most violent person i
ever met and totally unstable.but i swear to go when someone fucked me
over is buisness he offered to kill them for me.and he was totally
serious.he had it all worked out.and that kinda friendship is deep.i
mean i fiought him in the ring toe to toe so many times you cant help
be close.weirdly close, yet i am scared out with him, like a bar or
something.i mean at any moment he may go mental and do something
putting him away forever, and i dont wanna go down with him.i mean its
hard to know what to do when a friend of yours goes up to a girl
sitting beside a big jacked guy and sez "why are you with limp ***
here when you could be with me?" i mean the guys almost always chicken
out, but when one doesnt i dont wanna be on the side of a guy whos
pure evil in a fight.i mean it aint moral.yet hed kill someone for me,
so id feel honor bound.
but yeah i like almost everyone whos a member quite alot, only one guy
i can think of i dont, cause he pays every month so i dont wanna toss
him, yet for the 3rd time i gotta remind him that he cannot go to
class wearing the same clothes as the night before if he didnt wash
them.that he smells so fukcing godaweful though i roll every day with
big gross sweaty guys..rolling with him disgusts me.right now i do not
like this guy for putting me in that position. i dont mind punching
people i dont know but telling someone, anyone..they smell bad just
sucks.
and thanks for asking, as i like to talk about myself.not in person
really, but online i think fills the roll Dr Pnewski filled for me
every tuesday thru my teens.
