Dan Rafael's chats on ESPN.com

I think Rafael's chats are great, I never miss em. He gets pissed because of all the obvious questions. Questions about irrelevant stuff, or stuff he's already talked about. If you're a casual fan and ask "who is Oscar fighting" he'll get pissed. Ask any good question and you'll get in. I've barely asked any questions but have had most of them get in, either untouched rare topics or good follow ups. He gets a lot of unneccesary criticsm, I know we're all secretly jealous of his job, hahaha. You got a point there. I wouldn't mind getting paid for following and talking boxing.

More specifically if you don't kiss his ass he treats you like crap. And you know those chats are filled with ass kissers. Dan makes sure all their stuff gets through. True it seems like all the questions that get threw are the ones where somebody is kissing his ass.

The same with me I like his columns as they keep me up to date as to what fights are happening and stuff like that, but I find him kind of an asshole as well. I've joined in on some of his chats that he's had and it seems he's always had some smart ass remark for one of my questions. It seems if your not a regular on his chats he doesn't give you the time of day. More specifically if you don't kiss his ass he treats you like crap.

His columns are very informative, but to me Dan is kind of an asshole.

Oh hell yeah. We're getting down to the final episodes. I'm wondering how Omar got away. That was insanity! I'm wondering what Omar is gonna do now that the heat is really on him. I hope he makes it out of this last season.. He's my favorite character, after the hilarity that is Snoop. let me ask you guys something. I watched an old episode and i REALLY REALLY liked it, but i had no idea what was going on cause i never saw any episodes before that. Should i buy all the seasons on DVD and watch it from the start? or is it not worth it, and i should just find a recap online and pick up from right now???

Dan is kind of a jerk but he gets tons of breaking news and stuff. His chats are great because he reveals a lot of information there. I never ask him anything, but i always read the chats thanks to Scott

I know you're amped for The Wire.. it's on very soon. :hijacked: Oh hell yeah. We're getting down to the final episodes. I'm wondering how Omar got away.

Does anyone else read these chats that Rafael does after the big fights? I always try and check them out, they have normally got a lot of good info and they are pretty fun reading. One of the responses on yesterdays chat cracked me up.... I know Dan Rafael gets alot of abuse on these boards but i'm a big fan, he knows his stuff and very funny at times. His columns are very informative, but to me Dan is kind of an asshole.

He also mentioned that Hatton is looking at Lazcano as a possibility for his nest opponent.

Dan Rafael is the shit :lol1:!
