When Conor McGregor went Ultra Instinct

When Conor McGregor went Ultra Instinct

New Rule: Words Matter | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)

bcglorf says...

@newtboy,

thanks for clarification.

So in your view, do you see the left objecting to any of the following things that kinda speak to Maher's point, and I think fits to the point of the 'left' being upset with him,

-Defending Chapelle which left would decry invoking their definition of dog whistle, transphobia...
-Pointing out a correlation between violence and Islamic extremism which left would decry as islamophobia
-Believing sports/olympics should divide competitors based on biological sex rather than gender identity == Transphobia
-(Big any famous celebrity accused of sex crimes) and suggesting they deserve a fair trial == failure to believe victims/survivors

Those are all things that have been pretty commonly defended by large groups of the left from what I've been seeing. Am I wrong?

how is this a taunting penalty...

this is one of the primary reasons i don't care for sports in general.


Ever see anyone get penalized for being in the freethrow lane in basketball?


Section VI—Offensive Three-Second Rule

An offensive player shall not remain for more than three seconds in that part of his free throw lane between the endline and extended 4’ (imaginary) off the court and the farther edge of the free throw line while the ball is in control of his team.

me neither.


but back to this, the trouble is it's really just whatever the fuck the ref feels like, not what really happened

KO'ed Fighter gets choked out by ref when he keeps attacking

jimnms says...

Do you think this is normal in this sport? You're absurd analogies have nothing in common here. They don't pose a threat to anyone, but a trained fighter can still be a threat even when they are knocked silly. Do you think the ref should just sit there and get beat up?

I have seen a few times where a KO'd fighter gets up and tries to keep fighting thinking the ref is the opponent, but I've never seen a ref choke out the fighter before though. Refs are trained to handle these situations, and usually defend themselves from the fighter until they come to their senses or the corner team get there. Choking the fighter out may have been a bit extreme, but he stopped the fighter without causing harm the fighter.

Imagine
"runner tripped by official for not staying in lane"
"f1 race leader crashed out by race director in pace car for infraction"
"swimmer held under water for using illegal technique"
"soccer referee fined for pretending to be injured"
except the above actually happened...

Conor McGregor shows you the true definition of irony

noims says...

The Irish went from loving him for his skill to despising him for his attitude.

I know the trash talk is part of the confidence that's almost a pre-requisite for getting to that level of a combative sport, but when we have examples like Katie Tailor to show you can excel and still be a decent human being it just rubs in how much of an asshole McGregor is.

Nice to see him knocked down a few pegs.

GSW, SF, etc. suck in sports. Go LA! However, I might need to go back up there soon for family.
