    There is no inconsistency in what I said. None. I'm sorry if you fail to understand that. I don't know how to help you any more than I have already done so, my friend. You are out of your depth, it would seem.

    Angloa - fair point. But I am still entitled to defend my family against the lazy, ignorant, and callous remarks of someone who is determined to be a jerk.

    Don't shoot the defender, shoot the attacker.

    You mean you actually do research? Cool, next time do it before you post. That would help. And save a lot of my time.

    Friend, you have a lot of "crazy" on you when it comes to opinions, facts, laws, theories and semantics. Much.

    I wouldn't call it crazy, however. Ignorant is the proper word. Crazy implies dissociation from your senses. Nope. You simply don't know what you're talking about with respect to the science and the terms here. That's ignorance.

    I started as an engineering major in one of the nation's top schools. I also AP'd out of physics. I better know my terms.

    Here's my final point, jgm: Have some restraint with the snarky stuff in the future and you'll save everybody a lot of time and hassle.

    I've made tons of errors on this board and was able to be humble enough to admit I was wrong, or I took the wrong tack. Try it, it's not hard.

    None of this would have happened if you wouldn't have done your snarky 'wrap up' of mine and my brother's posts and videos, a 'wrap-up' that was factually incorrect and condescending. Tons of people have made fun of him - and me - and I've said nothing, hell, I've cheered them on. I'm perfectly capable of 'taking it,' as long as the 'disher-outer' has some restraint. You didn't, and haven't, and so I came back at you hard.

    You're not fooling me or anyone else here, "just so you know." Don't pull this in the future, and you'll have no problem with me, as anyone on here can tell you.

    You try that crap again, however, and I'll send you off to another scientist. I can take it. You haven't demonstrated that quality yet.

    And as they say in boxing, it's great to be a puncher, until you meet a better puncher. I can take it, but I can dish it out, too.

    Let's end this crap. Please. *extends hand to jgm* I'll tell you what, you get the last word. Whatever you post next, I won't respond to. That's my concession. Just try to keep it somewhat reasonable, please.

    Now I'm crying again Doc. Holy shit. I couldn't tell you why I find that so funny... but I end up with tears and hiccups every time I see one.

    For anyone who read my last post already, please re-read it, as it has been modified.

    It's about time for me to go for real, fellas. Thanks for the verbal joustings. :)

    I have never met (in any way) anyone who likes to tell other people what to do as much as you.

    This is a fair point. Sorry to come across as a jerk. I know I'm good at that when I try.

    It's been a long day, and it hasn't been fun.

    Mert, for what it's worth, I've always thought you were a cool guy, and I told JDV that, and that's the truth. He's was like "Who is that guy?", and I'm like "he's a cool guy." I don't have a problem with anyone on this board, and I've battled with plenty of people on here. As I've said elsewhere, I'm a 'fight and then buy the other guy a beer after, win or lose.' Hopefully, this will end the same way.

    This thing has been personal, with JDV's involvement and then the SG's gambits. So I've been even MORE reactive than I usually am, which is saying something for people that have seen that side of me before. Ask sportschick, or Doc, or IJAG. Or Fenian Bastard. Or plenty of others.

    I am truly sorry for my excesses, and I'm sure they've been legion. I hope they can be forgiven or at least forgotten.

    Take care, all. Including Mert and Jgm.

    Appreciate the words. For what it's worth (and this isn't an apology), I wouldn't have written the shit I wrote earlier this evening had you not attacked the professionalism and credibility of someone I know on this board. As it turns out, that ended up being a silly thing for me to do, for reasons which aren't worth getting into here. I do appreciate, like others, the fact that you're defending your brother. I think you're both knuckleheads, but the kind of knuckleheads I'd probably find myself hanging out and drinking with.

    I'm too lazy to go back and read the last 15 pages. Can someone tell me if SG and the MCA dude are one and the same? This is bugging me.

    Thanks in advance.

    I don't believe so, but then again I got to bored watching the first video to watch anymore. But SG has been posting on here, though is thread - which was even better than this one - got deleted.

    Dammit! When was this, earlier today? I was working.

    It was yesterday afternoon if I'm not mistaken. It was some really good stuff with SG calling out JDV and saying he was a FRAUD and that he actually only trained McGwire for 2-4 weeks, of course don't let Rokski hear me saying that or he will threaten my family and yours.

    They are not. Many were confused by the way (links) of Youtube. MCA dude has nothing to do with our man JDV.
