Devil wants to make fun of Kata

[QUOTE=Dr. Gonzo;3018992]You forget, I practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

I’ll just sit on my butt, and then butt scoot away from him, biding my time as the clock runs out,

counting on a single, probably ridiculous, advantage point to win the match.

And then I’ll be a champion with a gold medal!

Even if he was the only other person in my division!

CHAMPION! CHAMPION! CHAMPION![/QUOTE]

PROFIT!!!

There can only be One…Super Martial Arts Panda.

[QUOTE=Dr. Gonzo;3018982]Don’t be such a SJW sissy.

If you can accept the mantle of Ginger Judo Oompa-Loompa with Good Graces and a sense of humor,

Then Michael can handle being the Israeli Kung Fu Panda Sambo Wrestling Rabbi.

He’s precious.

I just want to tickle his belly and feed him baklava and chocolate rugelach.[/QUOTE]

My doc and dietitian would both strangle you. Yup, I resemble Panda, it’s what happens when your thyroid goes to shit on you. Things are headed in the right direction, but it is slow.

Good luck, and keep at it.

As a leukemia patient, we, in chemo, were always envious of anyone who did not look like a god damned skeleton.

Every time devil posts this pic someone should kick him square in the taint.

I take offense to this. Clearly I am the Panda in this story. After all, I really do practice and teach Tai Chi. Matter of fact, when this stupid movie came out, my wife and kids made fun of me, endlessly about it. I don’t care how many thousand rounds of stick fighting you do, if you are fat and do Tai Chi, you are just the stupid Kung Fu panda. That being said, wile being 6ft 250lbs, I can do 20 pullups, stickfight for 30 minutes strait, and moving meditate my ass off.

On topic:
Funny that Devil wants to try and argue with Omega who said that kata is A WAY to pass down information, while Devil is arguing that it’s not the best way. When Omega never said that. Kata has literally been used this for hundreds of years. Technology is better now, but Kata was the best method at points in history.

And I was reading this thread while my son’s lacrosse team was out there practicing kata on the field at the end of their practice. It was a pretty in depth kata where they have one of the LSMs sprint off field after the goalie gets the ball and clears the D through banana routes while the LSM hits the edge of the box and another middie enters the field at the other end of the box to get behind the other teams middies and overload the D to score. Pretty good kata.

There can only be one Super Martial Arts Panda.

This can clearly only be solved one way:

Panda Gong Sau between Diesel and Michael.

Or a Panda cook off.

For the honor of being the “Official Fighting Panda of Bullshido.com”.

I accept the Panda cook off. I’ll smoke some ribs and Boston butt!

I see what you did there. Trying to beat the Rabbi via pork.

Careful,He may counter with jew-bacon. Jew-bacon is on point! Smoke pastrami/corned beef then fried like bacon nice and crispy. Its amazing.

Oh, I was being respectful of the thread by posting my shit talk in the other thread after this one was cleaned up. I didn’t realize y’all were still over here being retarded. Let me catch up and set you all straight.

[QUOTE=Michael Tzadok;3019063]Clarifications:

DCS: Yup, some of it is sloppy. When I filmed it, I had just finished a 2 hour competition class. I’m still at a point where technical crispness and weight distribution degrade as exhaustion sets in. Though I would happily hear any constructive criticism about any or all parts as to how they can be performed better.

Devil(et. al): There are a couple of Japanese-Palestinian students, they are the ones that started calling it kata. It was kind of an inside joke as BJJ is often considered a martial art without kata.[/QUOTE]

I used to know a BJJ instructor who thought it was funny to lead his class through a series of unusual stretches and then snap a picture at just the right moment so it looked like they were all lined up practicing kata. It was pretty hilarious.

Pointy sticks were also the best fighting tool at points in history. So what?

Sounds pretty dang good. I haven’t seen any around, but then again, not any good Jewish restaurants or cultural areas around, that I know of. Where can I find this?

Good jewish deli/restaurants will make it, or just do it yourself if you smoke.

4 pounds of good corned beef, preferably home made (click for recipe)

4 tablespoons fresh coarsely ground black pepper

2 tablespoons coriander powder

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon paprika

2 teaspoons garlic powder

2 teaspoons onion powder

1 teaspoon mustard powder

This is from amazingribs.com they have great recipes. Its their attempt at Katz Deli’s pastrami.

After you smoke the pastrami cut it as think or as thin as you like your bacon and pan fry it crispy. Add it to anything you would use bacon on.

I suppose you could just buy pastrami but its usally trimmed so there isn’t much fat which is nice to have to fry it crispy for the bacon effect.

They should be able to get you adjusted to where you lose the weight.

People steal thyroid meds. to help lose weight, or sell them to others for same reason.

Yeah, I was watching Son#2’s basketball team doing kata for 2 new offenses.

Apparently, kata work for that purpose, as they successfully ran both in the tournament last weekend.

In any case, “kata” can and do serve to pass on complex stuff in martial arts successfully. DVD and video are good, too, however, people who have trained the “kata” can and do remember the technical details for long periods of time.

I like the idea of a cook-off best.

Could be kind of an Iron Chef sort of thing.
