@kappakappaspankme: it are done!
Minutes before this frowdown gets shut down by the New York State Athletic Commission: 9. 11 tops.
@DaneCA: SHIT! You are totally right. Dina is married. I forget because her husband is never there....Ok. Will rePACER
@fileunder: Also, a fashion sense that leaves her left nipple open for public scrutiny, if the public is so ill as to want that.
@eatsshootsleaves: Yup! Some of them at least.
@Rodrigo R Chavez Lopez: Rodrigo, read the post then go fuck yourself and never come back.
@kolacek: Also, Erik, you are an idiot!
@Felix Ting: You are in idiot.

Larry Merchant Is an Assclown Who Should Be Banned From Television
May 3, 2009 – If anyone watched the Hatton v. Pacquio fight last night, the biggest loser wasn't Ricky Hatton. It was Larry Merchant whose inane lipid-eyed commentary damages more brains than Pacquio's right hook. Larry Merchant, the tuxedoed stooge, is boxing's old joke told over and over again. More »
