I thought there was a thread on here before suggesting a compiled list of all the different accomplishments Moon Heads (or Hot Box Leaders) have accomplished, but couldn't find it. So sorry if this is a duplicate, but I was thinking today that it'd be cool to see all that the different studs in the system have accomplished!
WHO'S GETTING IT STARTED!!??
(Doesn't have to be a team leader, if you're in the system and have accomplishments - list them)
Alrighty then..I suppose I'll start it off lol

Why not use wikipedia? There's already an Eddie Bravo entry and a 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Entry.
Senior Members (Blacks and Browns) could start by posting their biographical info. Then those that have been belted under those instructors could add their own. Information is verifiable and pretty easy to call bullshit on if needed but it doesn't require one person to update and keep track of. Collaboration.
I'll kick your ass.......... in hopscotch!!Quote:

Boss status man. - I was just curious what all tournaments people consistently win..We don't have a lot of Jiu-Jitsu in Michigan, so part of it was looking for tournaments to possibly attend (lol)Quote:

If you want a challenge, then start coming down to tournaments in Chicago. I went against a girl from Michigan who said we were much harder in Chicago than anyone she has faced in Michigan. There's IBJJF No Gi March 30 and US Grappling May 3 on the schedule so far.Quote:

I feel like after this post...all of us have banged the Pink Power Ranger too.Quote:

(It was a submission only tournament and had some really long matches that day. I know I only lost due to exhaustion. I think about that guy holding MY trophy every time I'm lifting, doing combat conditioning, or rolling tired and want to quit. If I ever lose again, it wont be because I didn't do everything I could to be in the best shape possible! Man, im getting fired up just thinking about it lol. Might have to do some push ups :p)
