"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Damn shame it had to end this way. I was hoping that he would end his career on a high note--to become the old Mike Tyson again and fight like he did in his prime for his last match. I wasn't expecting it to end like this, with him simply quitting.

He had it all, and he's going to retire completely broke-- he's 40 million in debt.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

We all knew deep down he was done for anyways. Who takes a fight where the fighter out weigh him by 40 pounds and is a ft taller. Obviously he needed the money. He said it himself, he doesent have it in him anymore and he doesent want to disrespect the sport anymore. Good luck to him.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

someone mentioned this earlier, and it has crossed my mind too. I think Tyson somehow bet against himself and took a dive.

He owes so many people money and needs cash as well. The odds against McBride were so great that anyone who bet on him would have made tons of money.

i doubt tyson would bet against himself. It could be found out and if it was, it was cause him problems, incluidng legal ones as it is illegal to fix a match.

Na can't be. Did you see him at the start of the 6th round? You could see the anger in him, he was hurting that bad inside.

just because the heavyweight division is indeed dead, doesnt mean that the whole sport is dead. You got so many talented fighters in the lighter divisions. eventually therell be another generation of talented heavyweights who will bring the sport into full steam again.

the lower weight division is definitely more exciting, but boxing is boring...... I like show like the contender where the fight is pre-recorded and the viewer only watches the good parts of the fight with music and sound effects... I hate watching title fights where they hug the entire round....I prefer k1 and ufc, although ufc has gone down hil.:down: :down: :down: :down:
