Baller. Not just gangsta-straight pimping gangster. Welcome to the 10th Planet World and Forum!!!!

[Eddy Lara]

wow, you guys are awesome i have to tell everyone!

btw I have a weird question - how well is 10pjj accepted by camps like jackson/Winkeljohn, AKA and Blackhouse. i ask because my fav fighters, Jon Jones, Spider Silva and Cain Velasquez are from those camps. just curious how much exchange of knowledge and training there is between some of the larger training organizations in MMA. Thanks!

AKA head grappling coach is Leandro Vieira which is one of the founders of Checkmat. Not sure how 10th Planet friendly he is but Eddie had a match with Leo and has been pretty vocal about him in the past. I have friend that train 10pjj that rolled without problem though, I think it's all rivalry no hostility, tamato tomato. Two different approaches. Don't know about the other schools.

i have a question about the legality of weed. first, how can a plant be outlawed? we hate flys but they're just disease ridden pests that we constantly find new ways to kill. why don't we outlaw flys?

and secondly, outlawing a plant is outlawing life - we are saying that it's ok to pick a specific species, a particular form of life, and outlaw it's existence, that it's ok to make it an unprotected endangered species! one plant!

how did one dude say 'there is one thing that is evil beyond even the devil and that is devil weed itself!" and then the whole world jumped on his back, blindly apparently, as if it was a religion? and why did i need to be hi to realize this? are you stretching?

i just remembered, the last time we outlawed life we exterminated 6 million Jews, 6 million Chinese and millions of other other minorities, and the excuse was because we needed something to blame shit on so we picked on the most defenseless people. sound familiar?

i mean, wtf? it's a plant. it's defenseless. it's a life. this should be lighting up conservative talk radio. somebody call Rush Limbaugh!

i LOVE rolling high. it's better than just stretching high, it's awesome! highly recommended by me
