    Better?
    How bout it's neither

    It's something that exists and should not be taken as a joke, even if it doesn't have a 100% mortality rate.

        Thats nice to hear, I have covid right now got my results in the day before yesterday. I feel fine I had like a 1 day cold that was mild at best but someone else in my house has it bad, they been bed ridden asleep since like jan 2nd or so,,, barely getting up to eat but today they seemed way better speaking with some power behind their voice now and eating more than a few bites, they also have diabeties so I think that has something to do with it.

        I tell you this kinda selfless viewpoint but it kinda have you to appreciate the workload divide in your house when someone gets taken out the equation lol.

        Covid is no joke, I used to think it was... I wore my mask and all that but I never really cared and yes we ignored the no gatherings rules for christmas and newyears and are paying the price... the price I paid is low but what I could of risk was my life,,, not worth it imo just to have a few drinks and cheap convo.

          Well, true, he wasn't much of a ref, and lost many a fighter his just victory, but I'm glad he's O.K. Using his ref "skills" he separated from the foe before it got a hold on him...as usual.

            The best video I've seen of Joe Cortez is the one where he "fought" Mike Tyson in the amateurs and was bombed out in about 10 seconds max. . Great.!! ....I think THIS is what convinced him to become a referee..... It almost rival's Jimmy Thunder's first punch, fastest KO ever....

            Actually I don't think it was the same Joe Cortez, but it certainly looks almost exactly like him

                      Never liked his referring because he would stop fights too early, but wish him a speedy and full recovery....now, what if some medical professionals had pulled the plug out early on him?
