    The military government banned ****fighting and bullfighting from the island but introduced the sport of boxing and a "new" sport called basketball. Both boxing and basketball were used by the soldiers as part of their physical training. Boxing competitions amongst the soldiers were open to the public. The first boxing match in Puerto Rico was held on January 15, 1899.

    When the soldiers played basketball, they would use a plain straw basket which was cut open at both ends and place it on the highest end of a pole. For a ball, they used a football and the game was played without any established set of rules.
    There are still **** fights here....wait that didn't come out right!

A tip if you do not want others boris, you fall up, for better or you think of this type. (As the offender without a board or anything as you know)
        man, I need to learn Spanish. these translators just dont do it. hahaha

        Im going to assume that Karaj is a bad term.


        Ive always liked Puerto Rico. but they are part of America, and thats the truth. you have a strong culture, and you can keep that all you want...Im certainly not asking you to change it. I dont even care if you dont learn English...my biggest gripe with that is that I think that only Spanish speakers have difficulty living in a mostly English speaking society. but If you can get through just fine, go ahead.
        but yall are part of the USA, thats all. youve done a lot for us, I dont see why you should prefer all that to go to waste by pretending youre a seperate nation.

          #1: If Puerto flat out ignored the President of the United States or the Congress, what do you think would happen? there would be some ass kicking.
          #2: Puerto Rico's economy aint so hot as I said before, so how exactly would the USA be 'in a ****hole' if Puerto Rico dissapeared?
          #3: Puerto Rico pays some taxes to the USA, although they do get a discount. if a Puerto Rican stopped paying those taxes, do you think he wouldnt get in trouble?

          America is doing just fine, actually. its a common misconception that America 'always owned boxing'. weve had better moments, but they didnt last forever. I think America is doing rather well, even if I wasnt to include Puerto Rico.

          but I do like you guys, you produce such good fighters.

          you'll go down with medicine,agriculture, and mens. basically in a though economy like this you'll be ****ed!

                again,i respect the **** out of the US but it has its limits.
                I don't think BlackIrish is going that firm route, the one I went in the bait thread as TucanMcGinty. He seems to have a solid respect for your, your people, and your Nation's history of producing great Champions. El Dominicano is vouching for him, I know him a little bit, and I don't think he's trying to be a hardass here.

                It's a good subject for debate, and I see your point. I'm glad you respect us, I hope you understand that I respect you and your Nation as well. I come across as a **** a lot of times but that's really not what I'm trying to do here. I want this peaceful, and civil.

                If nothing more, I'm glad that I get to watch you guys scrap, while drinking your fine rum. And the no passport travel is nice too. That much we can all agree on.

No me gustaria quedar mal con los boricuas aqui pero tampoco me voy a quedar callao!
                  Yo se que tienes quedar tu opinion y estoy totalmente de acuerdo. Lo que quise decir con nuevo fue, que no te das cuenat cuando alguien hace las cosas por joder(aunque no lo paresca) Y cuando las hace sin maldad. Anyways, tu eres tu propia persona y piensas a tu manera, y eso yo lo repeto despues que no sea nada malo!!!!!!!!!!
