ok, well, this terminology probably existed before mma.tv, but that is where I first learned of it:

Wow I feel like such an idiot... Thank you for clearing that up for me!

dude, you're not an idiot. we were all confused by it at some point. you'd be an idiot if you didn't know what it was and were too scared to ask.

The Fishnet is gold! Especially against traditional BJJ practitioners!

Josh I have a question for you. Your a pretty big dude and in the videos I see of you you seem to play around with the guard and half guard etc etc. Do you not excel in your top game? I know if I had all that extra strength that you have or someone big like Herzog or some of the guys around here I would never pull guard or half guard. One of my instructors I used to train with was a big guy and he really uses the extra strength perfectly complimenting his technique and explosive speed. I pull guard most of the time because I suck at passing the guard (I need to train this) and my guard is decent. These days rolling with higher belts I seem to only get half guard which is a bitch cuz I can get a sweep around 40 percent of the time, 20 percent I get darced, 20 percent i get to full guard, and 20 percent i get my half guard passed so its really a struggle. Hell with it all I guess.
