Go Ask Alice

8. Oh, I so hope

that the felon pardons her, or commutes her sentence. Please, please, let it happen!

At this point, focusing on if he will or won't be held accountable isn't what I think is important. Of course, I respect others' opinions. And ask that others keep in mind that I am limited to seeing all of life in the context of the sport of boxing. Is this handicap a result of all the punches I took? (grin)

When I fought a guy who had a good delivery system for landing hard punches, my immediate goal was to disable that potential danger. Sometimes that meant taking him out fast. But many times, it was breaking him down. I didn't concentrate on the fact that it is hard to get a decision in an opponent's home town. Never crossed my mind. No matter if the opponent was a boxer or slugger, I wanted to introduce him to how it feels to try to defend one's self with the wind knocked out of you. Or to slam a nice left hook to their liver.

Yet one encounters dangerous fighters, who can inflict damage if you make a single mistake. That requires punches to the head and body, and as the rounds go on, and he is tired and hurt, he will make the mistake that allows you to take him out. Fuck his home town judges.

Though I did not see the Epstein issue coming up now in any significant way, it has. I view it as landing nice body punches to the administration. If need be, I hope they continue to land until the mid-terms. The voting public will be judging. And after that, I will think about holding him and his ilk responsible.
