it's been awhile since little old joe has felt so exhausted. after an afternoon of softball, my knees were about to give and all i wanted to do was lie down for the rest of the day. i have to admit i was a little surprised at how beat i was feeling. it's only been a few weeks since school when i was in probably the best shape of my life... and i haven't exactly been sitting around this whole time doing nothing. maybe i am getting old, wouldn't that be sad.

it didn't help at all watching the tyson-lewis fight later on either. boxers are all pretty crazy and even though they don't seem too smart, their bodies gotta be so incredibly conditioned, probably more than i can imagine. even though tyson got owned, it was still pretty impressive how many punches he took and that he was still standing after then 8th round. i mean, some of those replays were just plain brutal, he got jacked so hard i'm surprised his brain isn't complete mush by now. actually, it probably has been mush for a while now. so that's what a person turns into when he takes one too many punches, biting ears, talking about eating kids and stomping on their testicles... remind me not to fight lennox lewis ever

watching boxing got me to wondering, how would someone like bruce lee do against a boxer. bruce lee never loses a fight. i'm sure he could dodge pretty much any jab easily or block and counter with some pretty mean 1-inch punches of his own. too bad he died though, what a bummer eh...
