The sacrificial bull never asks to participate in the blood sport devoted to their existence, so when if a bull happens to get the upper-hand in these displays of cruelty, I immediately root for the rampaging bull. Even if one goes into the stands and injures spectators, as demonstrated in the lead video.

And this is where the passive/aggressive side of me being a pacifist comes into play:

Normally, I wouldn’t want to see any spectators injured, but in this case, these folks were willingly attending the senseless slaughtering of a bull; and so, when the bull turned the tables and goes into the stands, I don’t feel a deep sense of sorrow for the people who were in its path. Yeah, it’s a hypocritical stance, but I stand by what I feel.

Conversely, in an article discussing the incident, it says a 10-year old boy is in intensive care after he got trampled, and that’s where my sorrow would be directed. I have little doubt the hospitalized child was taken to the modern-day gladiator spectacle by his parents, so I would consider what happened to him to be regretful, but not the adults who were actively cheering for the bull’s demise.

As for the bull, it, of course, was put to death when control of the beast was regained. What a pathetic waste. If they didn’t have bull-fighting to begin with, the bull wouldn’t feel the need to escape, and there’d be no 10-year olds in the hospital due to being trampled while attending such a destructive, cruel display.

All apologies, Jens.

What stood out to me, besides the obvious, was the fact that Voigt actually skidded after his fall, which no doubt exacerbated his injuries. FanHouse has the prognosis:

The injuries Voigt sustained included a concussion, a broken orbital bone under one eye, and gashes on his right side that required stitches.

Wow. Who says bike riding isn’t a contact sport? If that’s your stance, you might want to consider the road the racers ride on. It not only never ends, it also bites back if you lose control of your steed.Similar Posts:

Not to be outdone, now we have the Carano’s appearance on Sports Science. During her segment, Carano displays her punching and kicking power on their ballistically-gelled dummy. Needless to say, she can hit. Hard, too. However, when she demonstrates her choke-out technique on the host, he goes down like a rag doll, all while being cradled in Gina’s wonderful body.

Not a bad way to go to sleep, if you ask me.

Granted, Carano’s environment was controlled, while Cyborg’s choke-out seemed a little unexpected, especially to the host. Regardless, these appearances have helped generate buzz for their upcoming bout. I don’t know, maybe they’ve stumbled on a way to market a fight without having to rely on contrived weigh-ins and press conference shenanigans. Whatever the case, it’s got my interest meter working — if, for nothing else, the idea of being cradled by Gina Carano in such a manner is just so damn hot.Similar Posts:

Gina Carano Will Choke You Out is a post from:

We witness a performance like Saturday’s and we start to ask ourselves if there’s any challenge out there too steep for the Pambansang Kamao — or National Fist — of the Philippines. He’s already won titles in six different weight classes since making his debut at junior flyweight. What could be next?

Thanks to the awesome Sox and Dawgs blog, we have some video of the final punch; although, I’m not expecting these gems to stay active for long — infringement claims and all that. Nevertheless, if you didn’t get a chance to see the left hand that rocked the British Isles, try this:

Now that Floyd Mayweather has announced his un-retirement, fight fans are now entertaining the possibility of a Pacquiao/Mayweather super fight, one that “decides” the pound-for-pound argument. The question is, does Mayweather, a man who is obviously concerned about protecting his image of being the best, want anything to do with the current boxing destructor?

Has for Hatton, apparently, there was no damage, even though Pacquiao’s crack left him motionless on the canvas. In other news, I don’t think Hatton’s fiance got sick this time.Similar Posts:

Even during Mardi Gras celebrations in New Orleans.

What the above video shows is a Florida fan who tries to show out with a group of Florida State fans, one of whom takes exception to the Gator fan’s advances. After that, we’re playing the feud — and unlike the football field, Florida State actually bests the University of Florida’s offering, complete with a bloody face and all. Good times.

I’m wondering if the argument started over Tim Tebow versus well, um, no Florida State quarterback past few seasons has really mattered, but the point remains, or if the scrape up was over a Mardi Gras bead exchange gone bad?Similar Posts:

There’s video of the knockout, so get it while its hot:

I doubt HBO will allow this to stay up for long, so enjoy it while you can. I understand their point too. I mean, it’s hard to resell something when it’s on YouTube, and since they are evidently wanting to reshow the fight on a Pay-Per-View basis, I can understand why they’d want to be so damn protective over these highlights.

Sarcasm aside, what’s next for the resurgent Mosley? A fight with Floyd Mayweather?

Personally, I think Mosley has something other Mayweather challengers may have lacked in the past: hand speed. Yes, Mayweather is incredibly fast and uses his speed in way that makes him hard to hit. Just ask Oscar De La Hoya. Mosley, however, has the necessary tools to pressure Mayweather and he looks fast enough to actually land a punch or two, something other boxers struggle with when they fight Floyd.

Regardless of what Mosley does next, he deserves all the accolades he’s receiving after beating the tar out of Margarito last Saturday night.Similar Posts:

High school football is good for providing blog fodder, and this latest post is no exception. I must say however, this is the first time I’ve seen such English on a football during a pass in my life. The obvious explanation is the wind of Pennsylvania, but I’m also holding out for “ball on a string” or “alien interference” as well.

Maybe it was a Red Bull ball … Because, you know, it gives you wings. Crappy humor aside, that was some great defense by the visiting team’s secondary. The receiver must have been at least four or five steps behind the defense on what looks like an obvious passing play.

Apparently, the screwy flight of the ball gave the receiver just the distraction he needed to get open. Wide, wide open.Similar Posts:

At the time I had jumped in the picture with the kid, I didn’t realize what had been drawn on him, which I take responsibility for not being alert.

That’s fine and good and all, but if I couldn’t help notice she has a Sharpie in her hands in the lead image. It’s also pretty apparent the picture was taken right as she was either getting ready to make art or moments after she did. Either way, the Sharpie in her hand — and the look on her face — kind of blows that whole “I didn’t know” defense out of the water, especially if she already tagged sleeping drunk’s face.

Unless Caitlin is legally blind. That’s about the only way, just from looking at the picture, her story is plausible.

Since we are discussing insincerity, it should be noted people shouldn’t make apologies for things they aren’t sorry for. Saying things like “It’s unfortunate that this did happen to Caitlin” when your site is responsible for posting the pictures to begin with is awfully disingenuous.Similar Posts:
