Hahahahaha. Guess I gotta hit up Mobile as well.

I thought you called me out first on the old forum???



Oh and will do. On the tourney and the posting.

i don't like people who talk about how they tapped some guy in the gym on a forum.. keep it to your class mates and in the gym.no blue belt for you

I've also been tapped by a 2 stripe white belt named Noah many times. And last year when I was at the Gracie Academy in Lagrange, Indiana, this 4 stripe white belt totally tapped me like 8 times in a row after I caught a few of the blue belts there. I'm not trying to stroke my ego here, entirely, I'm just having some fun typing Einstein. But I do appreciate the advice too...coming from a smack talker in his own right.

Or was that just some hating? Either way, Einstein just made fun of ME!!!!

Same here man. I have family that lives within 30mins of HQ. I'm thinking about heading out there next year sometime maybe.

Dude, do you wanna make a team road trip out of it? I would totally try to put together the cash to help make it happen.

I agree with Scott. If Herzog ran Rochester by your logic, I would have a brown belt if not a black belt by now. Belts are earned not awarded. Put your time and get it the right way!

I agree with both. Put the work in and be humble and in a couple of years when your a blue, you will give the same advice.

Well I have been grappling since I was a child. Just not under a gym. I have every intention of putting the work in as I have in the past. My goal is to get the belts when I get the belts. They're already mine anyway. This battle has been fought a billion, trillion, infinite number of times. You can judge me as not being humble, but the fact is that none of you are the judges of humility. We've placed that esteemed position on God for the end of all days and refused to relinquish it to him at the same time. A man in vast. He is humble and he is arrogant. He is small and he is large. He is influential and he is alone. He is water and he is bone. I'll try to save my judgement for you when everything is illuminated and everyone is beyond judgement. Would you do me the same favor?

Let me prove my humility for a momment and mention some non famous names who've tapped me out:

John from the Gracie Academy, my 14 year old brother Jonah, my friend Barry, my dad, my brother Zach, Ray, all the douche bags who made me quit the basketball team.....etc

this may diminish me somehow (this confession), but I am not finished. I will rebuild. You may one day consider me your friend, but don't pretend that you know the vastness of me and I won't you. The previous was a conflicting battle of the soul that's dead already and not what's on my mind right now. I'm not here so you can't grasp me. You can't even prove that I'm somewhere typing this...so how the fuck can you do anything about it? The goal of this message is not to shut you down, but to make you reconsider your criticism. I considered it before writing this funny message about a blue belt. If I really wanted one (a blue belt), I woulda sent in my videos to the Gracie Academy a long time ago.

Jon i'm only offering advise to you. I didn't say anything about you not being humble. You opened yourself up to the criticism your getting by your post, no one called you out. I hope you do win and beat whoever face, best of luck!

[Jon Watkins]

thanks man

I'm not worried about criticism. I welcome it. But firing back is my nature.
