    When will whites, Latinos, and Asians learn to accept this exciting African-American inner-city game? We really need to stop being so judgemental.

    The article is obnoxiously written, I don't blame you. Just punching people for sport.

    Running up to old people and trying to knock them out with one punch isn't obnoxious?

    oh by the way, i slogged my way through that pile of words, and where does it say that only african americans play this little game? i probably missed it, that was like a no vowel scrabble maze leading to the isolated tower of indecipherable speech

    I didn't interpret it as old people, but rather the attention-grabber was an old person.

    Huh? People are being assaulted. Since when is running up and hitting somebody acceptable?

    WTF am I missing here?

    You haven't spent much time in St. Louis, and obviously can't read very well.

    I would have thought you'd be used to that, given the consistent structure of your own musings on this board. :)

    In your previous post you said "are running up to old people." I was simply saying that I interpreted it as anyone, (which you should note my first response I said the activity is awful) and that I read it as being just anyone could get punched.

    Ah, got it. I thought you meant that the 72 year-old guy was trying to seek attention, instead of the attack on him is what brought attention to this "game".

    Christ you are ornery.

    I was commenting on the fact the author made the reader trudge through about twelve paragraphs before explaining what Knockout King was.

    driven through a couple times cross country, stopped and got a bite to eat, seemed nice enough. theres numerous places neither of us have been, not very relevant.

    and no seriously, what did i miss? does it say that in there somewhere? does it say that it is an african american game? i am NOT trying to read that again :)



    touche' :lol:
