Now, I don't mind a bare-knuckle post or two. Some on this thread may actually be able to possibly recall maybe a post or two ("more like 200, Scarecrow!!") where I've been willing to give and take a punch. If it's done with some style/intelligence, I see nothing wrong. In the best circumstances, it should be like a hockey fight. You throw some punches, chip some teeth, spill a little blood -- and then go drinking with your combatant after the game. What I can't bring myself to respect is those who throw punches and run behind mommy's skirt when the environment changes. For hockey fans out there, this is what we'd call a "Chicken Swede." (*To all Swedish posters: I'm 1/4 Swedish, so I can say that. I mean no disrespect to any Swede. I'm merely perpetuating the Ulf Samuelsson stereotype. Besides, you can see the same trait in Claude Lemieux, right? If you're not a hockey fan, feel free to ignore and forgive the OT-ness of the post.)
