Pac Man And Gawd

I'm a lot of things: a drug addict, an alcoholic and a total baddass. I always tell the truth, even if the truth makes me look bad. I don't give a shit, I have no shame. So, I don't fuckin' lie, I don't cheat and I don't steal. Today, well at least after last nite, I'm a gonna add I also make sense to that list. That is one of the beauties of being on Team Skeptic and Team Atheist, we are rational, our bullshit detectors are on...all the time and unlike that Gawd that people keep talking about...we do not work in mysterious ways. We work in rational ways...

Beer truck driver crashes...intentionally. Great work, bro.

Well kiddies, there was nothing rational about last nites fight between myyyyyyyyy guy, the National Fist, Manny Pac Mac and Timothy Bradley. In my "dam, did I drink an entire beer truck last nite and then run myself over with it" state this morning/afternoon I have been searching for answers, the how's and why's about the super horrible decision from last nite (btw my guy lost, but he obviously won. obviously). I may have found something.

Dear god in heaven, help me beat this black man to the ground. Please. Not.

The Atlantic Monthly, as well as many other publications across the nation, have tried to figure out the WTF's about last nites fight. Obviously Pac Man won to the millions that watched it, all the sports writers in the stadium and all the people in the stadium, but not to the three judges (it is here I will say, yes, I now think that it is totally fixed and I will never watch boxing again. So sad.). So what did the Atlantic monthly come up with...God did it.

Yes, it's true kind gentle and very good looking readers. The invisible one, the absent one, the one that should be helping starving children with one shoe was there last nite watching boxing. Here's there evidence.

(According to Atlantic monthly) Pac Mac is a very devout Catholic and he desires to live a better and more biblical life. So what does he do, he invites freekin' Rick Warren to his training camp. No shit. I'm not shitting you. Obviously the violator of church/state separation has some influence on my guy, because after that, Pac Man started having bible study sessions in boxing camp. He was said to spew bible passages out all day and even insisted that the peeps on his crew memorize certain bible passages themselves. WTF (Atlantic Monthly) (1).

I also don't feel the need to make sense everyday, all the time. So there.

Look man, the day after we are all looking for answers to last nites super horrible decision. It just doesn't makes sense. What the results tell us is that what we saw was not what we saw. People like me and my homies that watched the fight, do not know how to watch a fight. We don't know how to judge a fight. We have "x" amount of knowledge achieved thru years and years of study, but our rational-ness and intellect, in the end, was totally teh wrong (Not).

How can it be that an interpretation of an event defies popular consensus. How can it be that after watching physics in motion, with knowledge of how the body/brain works, the obvious and ration conclusion is WRONG.

Maybe the Atlantic Monthly is correct...God did it.

* OK, I'm going to my dead homies memorial right now. I hope there is beer and weed there. C'yall tomorrow. Lates.

(1) You see, Pacquiao is from the Philippines and the Philippines is a seriously Catholic country and the PacMan, who is also a congressman there, has been dabbling with his own kind of Bible studies that don't always look Catholic to Catholics. In May, during his training camp in Hollywood he met with Rick Warren of Saddleback Church and other religious leaders to talk about his faith. Pacquiao felt like he was living a sinful life and wanted to have a better marriage and be a better father. A few months ago, he says he gave up his vices, including gambling and drinking, and became a changed man through his "manual for life," the Bible.


This was all well and good except Pacquiao took it to such an extreme that no one knew what to make of it in relationship to his athletic career. He quoted Bible verses at every turn. Ran his own Bible study classes during training camp. Required people around him to memorize passages from Scripture. This religious dedication made a lot of people nervous because they weren't sure if he was turning his back to the Catholic Church. And among boxing people, they just wondered if boxing was as important to him as God (Thanks Atlantic Monthly, heart, Kriss)
