It takes a big man to cry,
but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.

4. and here's the guy who might get away with laughing at him


Something like 600 lbs...and limber.


Anyway, I should probably have correctly attributed the quote to Jack Handey. Here's another favorite of mine:

"We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. But we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me."

5. A big guy for sure.
But sumo wrestlers blow in real fightin, submission wreslting, or mixed martial arts. Akebono 600lb Sumo grand champ has been chumped by several men much smaller. Royce Gracie, all 185lbs of him being one.

6. true...they also suck at running fast
how about that boxer, Valuev? I totally see your point about size and/or strength not being everything, but I still don't ever, ever want to piss this guy off:

7. Ahhh but Valuev has skills, and is in shape for a real fight.
If i got past his huge reach, i could take him out in about a minute........if i could get past his huge reach before he killed me.

Size really only matters when skill is very similar or close. Superior technique can, and most times will overcome raw power.

8. He was a cowboy, mister, and he loved the land. He loved the land so much...
...that he made a woman out of the land and married her. Unfortunately, when he kissed her, she disintegrated. Later at the funeral, when the preacher said "dust to dust," some people laughed, and the cowboy shot him. At his hanging, he told them, "I'll be waiting for you in heaven...with a gun."

That may not be correct word-for-word, but that's my very favorite Deep Thought.
