I just imagine him as the jock dad that always wants more out of the useless kid.

No offence to Vinman, Jocks, Dads or useless kids though :D
Bad imagination, pal

I havent any kids yet (one on the way)

I'm not old enough to be a jock dad who expects more out of his kids

I wont have to worry about having a "useless" kid, my genes will make sure I have a champion athlete in my son/daughter

I guarantee I would run your ass into the ground !!:D

Yeah I'd bet money that Vinni could own almost anyone.
Lets not go THAT far...................:D

If I was that good, I'd be on the tv show "The Contender"

Although, as I watch it, I know that I could have beaten some of those guys

This happens almost everywhere
Yes it does, but the Western observers to the 1999 elections here in Nigeria (I voted in that one but was too pissed off to vote in 2003) kept behaving as if vote rigging doesn't happen in their part of the world.

After the first Bush victory, someone suggested that the Americans send a delegation to Nigeria in order to properly 'learn' the art of vote rigging. :D

BOSTON (AP) A federal judge agreed Monday to postpone the deportation of a former government informant who claims he will be jailed, tortured and possibly killed if he sent back to his native Nigeria.

Frank Enwonwu, 55, a convicted drug smuggler jailed in Boston under immigration rules, was scheduled to be deported Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

On Monday, however, District Court Judge William Young gave Enwonwu's lawyer until April 27 to gather evidence that Enwonwu is in danger if he returns to Nigeria.

In January 1986, Enwonwu was arrested at Logan Airport on drug trafficking charges after Customs inspectors found five ounces of heroin in his possession. He later pleaded guilty to reduced charges and was spared a prison sentence in exchange for his testimony against several alleged accomplices.

Enwonwu's lawyer, Robert Carmel-Montes, said his client had a deal with the Drug Enforcement Administration to grant Enwonwu asylum for his testimony.

``I still need to determine if the deal went beyond a handshake or if there was something more substantive,'' Carmel-Montes told Young.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Frank Crowley said the government never promised Enwonwu he wouldn't be deported.

Enwonwu was arrested again after a 1996 federal immigration law ordered the deportation of people with past convictions. He spent nearly two years behind bars before U.S. Immigration Judge Leonard Shapiro agreed in 1999 that Nigerian government officials ``more likely than not'' would imprison and possibly torture Enwonwu, either because of his drug conviction or because he cooperated with the DEA.

He was arrested again last September when he went to renew his work visa and discovered that Homeland Security officials had successfully appealed Shapiro's 1999 ruling to the federal Board of Immigration Appeals.

His sister, Rose Enwonwu, said his attempt to smuggle heroin into the U.S. was a ``one-time thing'' borne out of financial desperation.

She and other relatives say he has led a law-abiding, productive life since his arrest 19 years ago, and has two sons who now attend college in Massachusetts. Enwonwu drove a taxi cab in Boston for many years before he earned his realtor's license in 2003. In February 2004, he was named Employee of the Month at a ReMax office in Malden.
That man should be fu(king deported. I get really angry when I see idiots trying to use that lame and worn out story about being tortured when they return to Nigeria.

Who the fu(k is going to torture him? He just wants to stay in Etats Unis and will do anything including slandering his motherland in order to stay. Those kind of human beings are second to gays:yuck: the scum of the earth and not worth the flesh they are printed on.

Dude you should have tried out. :D
Maybe 5 years ago.............

Its funny, a kid I used to train with tried out for the show, he just turned pro last year, and they told him he had too much talent for the show

The guys you see on the show all have had 20-25 pro fights, and most of them were undefeated before coming onto the show

However, if these guys really had the talent to become champions, they wouldnt need to be on that show

Andy- remember this kids name- Nick Casal.

He is from Niagara Falls, and he will be a world champion in the next few years

He hits REAL hard.... my jaw still hurts from sparring with him 5 years ago......

    I never said or implied that...

    Zlatan ALWAYS brings us these cheesey articles to prove some kind of point that America is so screwed up, and its such a shit place

    If America had no shit...I'd be out of a job !!!

    I dont think its perfect here, but we can look at any country, and say the same thing
