They wear padding on their knuckles, Why not on their knees so you dont cave in skulls?

Because the padding is to protect the hands, not the skulls. Gloves make punches worse for the person being hit, not better.

If you're serious about protecting the head, then they need to wear headgear.

Old school bare knuckle Marquess rules were better.

Hell football was better before they all started wearing loving body armor.

At least it showed the audience what was actually happening instead of just grinding the sports mans brains into the dirt.

One argument is that headgear is more likely to cause CTE since it is repeated subconcussive impacts that cause the buildup of Tau protein that is so dangerous in ex-NFL players. Obviously getting hit so hard you start fizzing isn't good, but overall UFC (Pride and others are a whole 'nother animal) fighters might sustain less brain damage that way.


This could all be terrible bro science, I'm just parroting the line I heard.

I'm in the hospital because while eating my first bite of a hotdog, a bit of it fell down my food pipe. Said food pipe decided to clamp down on that nugget of food, so there's a good chance I'll have to be knocked out and be fished around inside.

Double freude points for this same thing happening maybe four years ago. Same food, same effect, same possible result.

I've heard that's relatively common with hotdogs. :(

But not common enough to not eat a good one. (It was a good one, right? I mean, we'll all have to laugh at you if you hospitalized yourself over an Oscar Myer or Ball Park.)

Now I have a vision of a hot dog cart. A man in a suit with a newspaper tucked under his arm puts down the squeeze-bottle of mustard, and takes a bite of his hot dog. Turning away from the cart, he steps over the corpses of previous customers which litter the area around the hot dog vendor. The man takes another bite, and begins to chew. Two steps later, he drops the hot dog and clutches at his throat. Gesticulating wildly, the man goes down onto one knee, his face turning red, then purple. The hot dog vendor stoically ignores the dying man in the suit, and hands a hot dog to a woman in a red dress. The man in the suit succumbs, and falls dead, another corpse on the pile; another sacrifice to tastiness. The man's newspaper flutters to the ground next to his head.

As the hot dog vendor reaches into his cart to serve another customer, we see the woman in the red dress suddenly stop. A moment later, we see panic and horror take over her features, as her hands clutch involuntarily at her throat. She tries to scream, but her wind pipe is full of synthetic intestines and ground hog snouts. The new customer smiles a friendly thanks at the hot dog vendor as she hands over her money and receives a bun containing her fate. The vendor never looks up. With a bun in one hand, and tongs in the other, he reaches into the cart as another customer steps forward.

I would not be surprised in the least if the league's insurance coverage is essentially "lol you're on your own for it".

Guy's a dipshit but seriously, that's what you're going to charge him with? Not attempted assault or something that fits the crime? Yeah sure he's technically terrorizing people but I don't think that's what it's for.

It's like everyone involved just wants to crank that escalation dial to 11.

I think that's because he specified 'modified' paintball gun. Modified how? Maybe it shoots something other than paintballs now. I sure as hell don't know, so I'm glad they didn't take any chances.

This came up in another thread recently, "terroristic threat" has nothing to do with capital-T Terrorism and just means a threat with the intent to scare people.

E: The incident that sparked the other discussion was an implied threat of rape and murder, for example.

Guessing the charge is based on how they modified their paintball guns (or how the police assumed they did). If they're modified to look like real guns or to fire like ball bearings then terroristic threat is probably about right :shrug:

It was a Portillo's hotdog, a hotdog I hadn't had in forever, and I was cognizant not to take too big of bites since its happened before... since, ya know, I didn't want to have to go to the hospital.

The last time was a lovely Oscar Meyer that I was quick-eating before a date and cut it too long and didn't chew remotely well because I was pressed for time.
