Well, it came and went. The Ringside Tournament is over. We had a good team this year. Probably the strongest team we've taken up to Kansas in the
last 10+ years.

The guitar is my friend......it doesn't speak unless spoken too. It doesn't give you any ill advice or it's worthless opinion. It doesn't bother you........It will

There is a major difference between having a college education and plain common sense. Very VERY few people have both. Usually, when you attend
college you lose track of the important things in life. You get swallowed by groups of people and often distance yourself from reality. People with
common sense usually don't attend college, college people usually don't have common sense.

Education is only for some.

Adam Lopez's father almost got beat up last Saturday. I feel bad for his son, seriously. He's actually a nice kid. I think everyone here in San Antonio
would agree with me that Adam has a very good head on his shoulders.  He doesn't deserve to put up with some of the crap his dad puts him through.
A wise man told me once... "Don't write checks your ass can't cash" That wise man is still alive. The whole incident was pretty retarded. Lots of talking
no action. We were in a boxing gym. Why not just put the gloves on get in the ring and beat the crap outta each other? Afterwards be men, give each
other a hug and go have some Nestle Quick at Southpark Mall while listening to MC Hammer's 2LEGIT2QUIT. .

He asked me not to write about the incident . . . I smiled.
My tounge/typing fingers have no boundaries.

I keep getting asked if some of these phone calls are get are true/real. Fuck yeah they're real. I'm not making this up. Usually if I'm going to lie about
something I tell you I am.......so I'm a honest liar. This just shows how dumb these calls are. Do you really have to ask, "do you guys teach people how
to box or what?" when calling a BOXING gym? That's like calling McDonalds and asking, "hey.. do you like sell hamburgers or what? cause i'm hungry ..
and I want a burger".

Anyone who'd like sparring please contact us. I mean, actual gyms not some mensos who've never trained before. Have you coach call us. It's really
good for the boxers to get other gyms to stop by to spar. This is what makes California such a strong boxing state. Those guys sparring sessions are
like fights! We need to bring that to San Antonio. We've had good sparring here at our gym this year. Boxers from other gyms, cities have stopped by
and we are THANKFUL. The more the merrier.......unless you're at bar full of gay bodybuilders. .

It was a slow week in the Stupid Question phone calls. I need to find a way to record these phone calls and post them here. Some of the questions they
ask are so retarded it's understandable some might think I make these up. Well.. only one stupid phone call.

Stupid Questions from Stupid People Vol. 1

"Hello, is this a boxing gym?, Ok.. I was wondering if i can go there and get a few rounds in the ring with some of your guys" "Are you a boxer?"  "Yes, I
am.. I"ve been training for 3 years". "Ok, what's your weight .. and what gym do you train out of?". "I weigh 175 and I train in my backyard", "Oh ok..
who's your trainer/coach", "I don't have one, I train myself".

This fucken conversation went down hill fast! I should start posting the phone numbers these calls are coming from so you guys can call them and ask
stupid questions as well. "Hello, what color of socks are you wearing?, Do you use gel in your hair?, Hey.. ever watch that movie Red Dawn?, it's
badass. Do you have an extra pair of shoes I can borrow?".

Well, things have been pretty busy at the gym despite a few distractions. Celina Salazar still can't get a freaken fight.. She's been on the shelf for over
1 year now, not by choice. We tried getting her a fight against, Johanna Mendez (Houston) Crystal Delgado also of Houston and one of Freddie
Roach's boxers. They all turned her down. Not sure why, she's can't fight worth a crap! I mean, anyone who'd take a fight against her would probably
knock her out. Hear that guys? She sucks.. someone fight her! I'm thinking of taking her under I35 & SW Military and have her carry a sign that reads,
"will fight for food' If she doesn't get a fight soon I might have to ask her to just go downtown and start punching people randomly.

Hector, Jesse and Jairo are all scheduled to fight on the same day in Laredo, April 18. The downside of that is that this years Junior Olympic
tournament will begin that day, in Brownsville.

Alice Cano will be holding the annual Black Tie event this year despite not having her own boxing gym or being on our board. They charge about 2500
bucks per table of 10. All the mammones are always there, the rich mammones. In the past this was a fundraiser for our Association. Not sure where
the money raised this year will be going towards.

Animals are creatures of habits........good and bad.

The last two boxing shows for our LBC have turned out pretty good. Floresville had over 45 bouts, this weekends show had 35. Nobody is bitchin.
There's nothing wrong with giving up your weekend to keep these kids active and out of trouble.

Carlos' home has become somewhat of a rehab & consulting center. He claims to make the best chorizo tacos in San Antonio. Anyone care to try?
Chorizo? Anyone? Like Chorizo? Going once.....Going twice.. SOLD! to the man in the orange shirt wearing flip flops!

Stupid Questions from Stupid People Vol.1

These are actual questions I get over the phone when people call asking for information.
"Do you guys teach people how to box?"
"Are ya'll Golden Gloves?"
"Can I be Golden Gloves at your gym" (No, but you can stop by and get your ass kicked by our new Everlast gloves)
"I want to make a living boxing, I don't want to work anymore. Can I do this at your gym?" (this phone call took place a few days ago) I felt somewhat
insulted... this fool is thinking boxing isn't "hard work". Jackass. I actually gave him directions to the gym.........another gym not ours.
"Are ya'll a real gym or what?"
"Sorry, I talked to my mom and dad and they said they're not going to drive to that side of town. It's to dangerous"
(I almost felt sorry for this kid..........how stupid can his parents be?)
Ok, this goes out to his parents any other morons out there who feel the Southside is "dangerous".
Few fun facts for any other mango out there thinking the Northside of town is SAFE.
Total Crime by case (Northside vs Southside)     
North 2007 = 4486 - North 2008 = 4284
South 2007= 4080 - South 2008 = 3990
Sexual Assault cases
North 2007 = 212 - North 2008 = 188
South 2007 = 198 - South 2008 = 167
Family Violence (ha, this is a good one)
North 2007 = 1661 - North 2008 = 1632
South 2007 = 1636 - South 2008 = 1587
Manslaughter
North 2007 = 4 - South 2008 = 3
South 2007 = 0 - South 2008 = 0
(Yes, that's a zero)
Robbery (Individual)
North 2007 = 307 - North 2008 = 308
South 2007= 229 - South 2008 = 257

Guess it's time for all you "smart" people on the northside to move to the South........that's if you want to be safe. For all of you in denial who think I
made these numbers up, visit : http://www.sanantonio.gov/sapd/MAPS.ASP . These are facts.........

Feb. 23, 2009

The Golden Gloves Tournament will be going on this coming week.

I don't like the Golden Gloves. Ok, Maybe a little. But there's people you don't see year round show up for this tournament. Anybody with any boxing
experience knows this is NOT the most important tournament of the year. It actually ranks 4 or 5th among local tournaments.

Should English speaking brown people be offended when "OTHERS"  try and speak spanish to them without knowing if you speak english or not? I
don't like it . . . . . I should start carrying around a pillow case with two holes in it .. for my eyes. . . . . and slip it on before speaking to THEM. I wonder if
they'd be offended? Are you offended right now? Then you're
GUILTY!

I have a feeling lots of poop will be flying at this years LBC Annual meeting. Bring  your helmets and goggles. Muncha CACA

One of the parents made a comment to me a few weeks ago. He says, " I was talking to that guy that used to bring his son here.... he's training at
another gym now. He says you ask to much of them. That you want them to train Monday - Friday". Um.... I agree with him, It's a bit to demanding to ask
someone to train 5 days of week if they want to compete. I mean, I really don't want to over-train these kids. Next thing you know they're in their first
competition in shape, winning, competing at the national level, looking more experienced that they actually are .............Yeah, why would I want this?
Idiot.

Looks like we have a new position for Carlos (there's so many jokes that can come out of that sentence.  I'll just let you use your imagination. This blog
is PG-13) According to Mr. Alvarez he has some sort experience when it comes to Bylaws, politics, being "politically correct" etc...  So El Mashine Gun
will be dissecting those "newly" surfaced STABA Bylaws.  So his new title at our gym will be, Boxer/RBT Boxer Rep.. I'll discuss the new dress code for
this position. .. Remember the Dukes of Hazzard? Daisy Dukes? Ok, it's similar to what she used wear on that show. Hope Carlos doesn't mind.

Damn, I haven't been here in a long ass time. It's been very very very busy in the boxing world. Well, our boxing world at least. Besides having to
prepare 10+ boxers for the Ringside tournament we also had a few boxers back in training to resume the professional careers. Jairo, Hector, Jesse,
and Celina all have fights coming up. Cestus Management & Sergio Martinez have both joined our team hoping to keep our boxers in the pro ranks
busy. Should be fun. With their support we should do well. The best thing about this is that our boxers will not have to go in as opponents. Anyone with
experience knows exactly how important that is.

We came back from Kansas with three titles this year. We had 6 guys in the semi-finals and 4 in the finals. Our team fought a total of 23 times, winning
17. I was proud of the whole team. They busted their ass to make the team and it showed up in Kansas. It's been one of the strongest teams we've had
in recent years.
The most HEARTBREAKING loss was in the finals, Tokumbo Adenerian. It sucked watching the other guy jump for joy and having his coach jump in the
ring like he had just won the lottery after he was announced the winner. It was really tough cause Tokumbo worked REALLY hard to get up there. He
had to overcome a cut 4 days before leaving to Kansas. We took our chances and took him up there anyway. Each day we'd work on the cut and hide
it from the doctors. He fought 4 times, won 3.

Four of the guys we took this year had never had a fight in their life. Just sparring. Jonah Duron, Petey Contreras, Ramon Cardenas and Steven
Escobedo. They all did well. Not many boxers can say they had their first fight at a National Tournament.

The trip itself was fun. A few of the things I'll remember from this trip:

Gay jokes galore
Christian lifting Richard off the floor while giving him a major wedgie
Ray having to swallow 20 drops of tabasco sauce cause he lost a card game
Steven (mouth) eyes watering after 15 drops of tabasco sauce
FREE BJ sign on our door (fuckers)
Jonah turning into the incredible hulk
Richard wearing lipstick
Richard drawing a small pp on Durons car
Vasoline on all 4 doors on Durons car
Mommy tears after seeing their kids win the belt
Matt winning.... and me having to get a mohawk (this friday)
removing the peephole and throwing foot powder into the eye of Cresencio Jr after he was caught  peeking. (he was trying to put up something on our
door and decided to take a peek, and WHAM!! powder to the eyeball)
Buying FROSTY's at WENDYS - placing the orders in spanish and driving the bolias crazy
Late night trips to WAL-MART
N.W.A. - BOYZ IN THE HOOD (the team singing along.....)
Seeing Richard finally reach his potential.

July 29, 2008

It's been a little busy at the gym lately. Jairo, Jesse, Mike, Hector and Celina are getting ready to resume the pro careers. All have started to train.
Jesse & Celina are scheduled to fight in mid August. The others have just begun preparations.

Raul stopped by the gym today to show off his new IBA World Title Belt. It was good to see him with no physical proof that he had just won his first world
title. It was a good motivation for our boxers to see a guy from our neighborhood had just wont a world title. It makes them realize winning a world title is
a realistic goal.

The
KANSAS BOXERS are doing just fine. We've had one guy "quit" on his own. After a week of training decided to hang the white flag. The biggest
improvement since day one of training has come from a boxer I least expected it from, "Mouth" Steven Escobedo. He's been doing better and better
each time we have our lengthly sparring sessions.

We had a grueling sparring session today. Turns out someone from the gym decided to "pocket" some gum from our little candy store here. After 20
minutes of sparring (straight) people confessed and turned in the fugitive. Turns out, it was a few of them. They'll all be having a "good time" at the gym
in the coming weeks.

Boxers hoping to make the Kansas Trip.

Petey Contreras 65 - has been very surprising. Despite his size has shown some real man sized cojones.
Matt Suniga 80 - struggling with his weight but has shown he can hang with the big boys.
Jonah Duron 85 - is improving but still has to be reminded it's not football.
Ramon Cardenas 85 - started off really well but is fading.
Christian Santibanez 90 - still has major issues with his weight/eating habits. Don't think he really wants to make the trip.
Cresencio Ramos 95 - is getting stronger by the day
Steven Duron 106 - wants to go toe-to-toe with everyone. Will have to learn the hard-way. "ALA RICHARD"
Ray Cordova 125 - looks sharp when he eats. He's lost close to 50 pounds in about 12 months.
Richard Soto 132 - Will have to work really hard to get rid of some of his old habits.
Steven Escobedo 132lbs - might actually turn out to be a decent boxer if he stays focused.
Tokumbo Adenerian 165lbs  - was at the wrong place at the wrong time....

Good day at the gym. Some of the guys seem to be getting a little more serious about training. Reason for this? One word, KANSAS. This year went by
fast. We've lost a few boxers to the Professional ranks. Jairo, Jesse, Celina and Hector. They all fought in last years Ringside tournament. I remember
Jairo saying he didn't want to fight amateur anymore after our Kansas trip. He was frustrated cause he had just lost to a "nobody". That nobody ended
up making the Olympic trials, Duane Calfero. He also won Silver at this years National Golden Gloves.

Overall........good weekend. Our boxers had a good showing in New Braunfels and I scored Pearl Jam tickets to see them in Boston later this month. I'll
also finally be able to die in peace. I'll be driving up to Amherst while in Boston to see my wifes home, Emily Dickinson.

I also finally got an answer from someone online on why "Larry's" (Andy Scott) bout was stopped last week here in San Antonio. "The bout was stopped
cause he was bleeding, you idiot!", was the answer I received. This must be a new rule that I"ve never heard of. Well, it's either a new rule or the
person that emailed this to me is a total dumbass. I'm going with him being a dumbass.

We finally had a decent showing her locally at a boxing show. Close to 40 bouts. And nobody bitched. Well a few people did but there was teams from
Odessa, Dallas, Houston so everyone kept their mouth shut and let the show go on. We had three of our boxers matched up. Larry and Christian lost,
Richard won. The guys will be fighting again in a few weeks in New Braunfels.

May 4, 2008 Good week. Hector was tested in L.A. and came out on top. Our JO Team will be missing a few boxers this time around. They all want to
fight, but don't want to train.

Work has been great. We've been really busy at the crematory. It's amazing what 120 minutes of heat/fire can do to human flesh. In less than 120
minutes a person can easily disappear.  A 250 pound fatso becomes less than 2 pounds of dust easy! The whole process is pretty amazing. We've
done close to 1000 bodies in less than 3 years.

My brother Mike and I have been cremating in the wee hours of the night. At first it was pretty spooky, but now.........."they" all know us so we're getting
used to having to cremate at midnight now.
