Am I smoking crack? Renato for Melee?

[pstover]

Did I just see that bozo Renato as a t-shirt model for 10th planet Melee? A guy who swears to take students from our school and start a new one???

[Ari Bolden]

Mans gotta make a dollar some how. I am sure he'll spin this somehow.

[pstover]

He's rocking a t-shirt, not the half shirt! Short list I'm sure for that sweet shirt he was having a siezure in. He shouldn't endorse anything other than a gi gi gi gi gi gi or acai acai acai berry.

[Jem Havok]

I think he would look better in a "orange" t-shirt! :p

[Carlos Rios]

i like renato :)

[michael craig]

id bet he doesnt like us...

[Carlos Rios]

id bet he doesnt like us...

ud be surprised man :)

besides, even if he didnt, where does our martial artist behaviour go to when we start disliking ppl only because he hates us or because we assume he hates us? not that i think he does.. but even if he did, who cares, hes a funny guy. :)

[Brandon Mccaghren]

i like renato. no matter which way you spin it he's awesome:

1. if he's a troll it's fantastic and one of the great troll jobs of all time.

2. if he's legit, how can you not love someone who is (A) a true martial artist (B) obsessed with jiu jitsu (C) willing to stand up for what he believes is the right way to do something (D) is open minded enough to try something that he doesn't believe will work.

He's cool no matter what you think of him.

Man, you're pretty far behind!!! There's already a thread going about this very subject... It's called "Renato, about your Gi".. Check it out!!!

[Jonathan Wylie]

ha ha your pretty far behind your self josh there was a thread about it on the old forum

[Paul Hannan]

Renato is about as real as freedom of speech. Love the character though, gotta have myself one of those t's, it will remind me what will happen if I close off my mind - I will become a bjj vestigial and degenerate tool. The guy who plays Renato is a cool actor.

[Wyatt Zornes]

I'm new to the 10th planet system, all i can do is train from the books and dvds. The closest 10th Planet school is 6 hours away and i will be making some road trips in the future!!! I love the 10th planet system and i love how everyone is a family and helps everyone out. My question is about Melee, what does it mean and what is the connection to 10th planet?

[Wyatt Zornes]

Hey Josh are they opening a 10th planet jj in Mobile, Al? When is that suppose to happen? Cause im 5 hours away and that would be the closest 10th planet school for me!!! ROOOOOOAAAAAADDDDDD TRRRRRRIIIIIPPPP!!!!! Hell yeah!!!!! Let me know dude!!

[Wyatt Zornes]

Yea it is but thats a small price to pay to do what you love!!! I would only go about 2 times a month but its better than nothing!!

Smells fishy to me. Sorry for jumping on the topic late, but was looking for some shin protection (Lockdown leaves me all bruised up) and noticed that last night while watching Jacare's fight, and what do my eyes see... Even if he is a plant, very funny stuff!

[herb rhea]

i saw renato at the ufc expo trying to start some shit with eddie and vinny at the melee both..... i almost sucker punched his ass but being on well ....... lets just say i CAN'T get in any trouble right now. i went to get security and when i got back he was gone!!

[pstover]

How long of a delay is it from the time an eipsode is filmed to getting it posted? Anybody know? I think Renato is stinking funny, and I'd love to see footage of him rolling with some upper level guys. His attitude stinks, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, I'm all for unity of the planet!

[Matthias Sieber]

i like renato :)

I like him, too. :)
