I don't know if there are any Bruce Lee fans here, if so, enjoy:

Bruce Lee was my hero! when I was a kid my dad bought me some Bruce Lee video tapes. I watched those things 'till they wore out.

 

Oh yeah, I'll be catching this one!

 

I just watched one of his movies on netflix that I hadn't remembered seeing called "The Chinese connection" I'm sure you guys have watched it. I really enjoyed it.

 

haha funny you'd mention that

i frequently browse through my netflix selection on my TV, and came across a few Bruce joints. Game of Death is up in it too. Netflix really is the truth for movie fans. It's like going to your local video store..but from the comfort of your Lay-Z boy. Plus you don't have to worry about shit being sold out.

Ip man and some other chinese films are on it too...definitely heaven for old school beatdown type buffs. think I seen some old jet-li movies there also.

 

I'm still a student of the "Arts" thanks to Bruce Lee's influence, military training, and desire to keep it all real.... Forced to play violin in the elementary school orchestra (I wanted to play a horn, the bass, or any "masculine" instrument....), I got into a lot of fights over that violin.... In Philly, you couldn't back down from any challenge, but after a year in Tae Kwan Do.... and countless Saturdays watching martial arts movies... Nobody wanted to f*ck with me... Bruce Lee got me started on the possibilities and real training showed me the "way"....

 

especially if you lived on Susquehanna or diamond street :smt103

 

fucking philly mofos lol.

What's sad is now even if you have martial arts training it doesn't matter. These kids would rather shoot than fight. So afraid of any ass whooping they'd rather catch a murder charge.

 

basically

i don't mind scrapping at all..in fact some days I look forward to it because I like to fight (obviously)...the problem lies with these silly ass mothafuckas pulling blades or shooting. Every time I hear a young gun talk about buying a piece or whatever, i just SMDH. is that what it's come down to? A generation of brothas afraid to tumble or take a loss?

as barbaric and un-collegiate as it may seem, I encourage guys to pull into a dojo or gym, and just fight a little. Taking a loss and getting worn out isn't as bad as it may seem. I think some people will be surprised at how 'not bad' it is, to lay on the mat after you got handled. Your body will heal eventually and you'll be back to fight again before you know it. You may even find yourself laughing through an ass kicking. Don't know if that's a guy thing or what.

gyms and dojos are controlled environments, but the pain and injuries are still real. bottom line is you'll get over them eventually and fighting won't seem like such a big deal. lose the guns

 

Close enough... 29th and Huntington... 25 Diamond turf when the Tenderlions weren't contesting it.... Several lesser known gangs would sprout up, but 25 Diamond was always my biggest enemy...

In those days, a "fair one" was the way to gain a pass from the madness... After several lesser fights, I whupped one knuckle head's ass who was at least 5 years older, 75 lbs heavier, and two towers taller... he was a branch old head or big cheese and wanted my school issued violin... the violin that my family couldn't afford, didn't want me to have, and would have killed me if anything happened to it... but he and his group wanted it... I got my pass the hard way...

A Viet Nam Vet/City cop who lived on our block opened a dojo and let me ride for whatever I could bring... Mr. Jones literally saved my life... His dojo was no joke... What I couldn't afford to pay with cash, I paid in sweat, and tears.... and yes, even blood and bruises.... He was as true to the Art as any sensei I've had in since in Korea, Japan, Italy, etc.....

When I joined the military, special ops martial arts training was a joke compared to what I grew up in.... I was teaching my instructors....

 

My old head grew up in north and told me about all the gangs. He told me he used to rumble a lot and lost more than he won. But he gained respect by not running away and that mutual respect you get from fighting is what's missing now. Now in north you are more likely to get blazed lol.

 

Yeah. Pretty much it right there. My old man told me and my brother he didn't care if we won if we ever got into any fights, just always stand your ground and never run. Getting your ass whopped every once in a while helps to build your character and helps to make you want to always try to step your game up Pops and the other old timers use to say when we were coming up. Young bloods now don't see shit in that way. Losing means weakness and they don't know how to make something that's seen as a weakness and make it into a strength.

 

seriously

 

I have not seen this movie yet. Look forward to seeing it to get more insight into this extraordinary man. Just finish reading "Regards From the Dragon: Seattle by Taky Kimura Lee's best friend and second in command of the network of schools in Seattle, Oakland and Los Angeles Lee had back in the 1960's. I urge you to get this book. One of the best in the life of Bruce Lee in his thinking, his development, and most of all his relationship with all whom he came in contact with. What struck me was how far ahead of his time he was. He was truly the father of Mixed Martial Arts. His death was indeed a loss to the world.

 

Realest thing you ever wrote. Respect

 

Yeah he whoop his ass

A little joke from the comments section:

so i saw my son looking at some jokes and i asked him: "what are you doing?"
he replied with a "i'm reading some chuck norris jokes"
me, who has seen all of his movies said, "bruce lee is way better"
my kid says, "then why doesn't bruce lee have a joke section?"
me: "Because bruce lee isn't a joke."​

 

But in another interview Chuck says he was a professional fighter and Bruce was a film fighter. But my money would be on Bruce 9 out of 10 times purely because dude was so much faster than everyone else.
