I sincerely hope this sparks Mike into seriously studying the "Verbal Art of Self Defense" and reinventing himself. Sometimes what appears to be "the worst thing that could ever happen" can be "the best thing" depending on how you react to it.
This is a brutal "wake up call," and they often are when in the public eye, especially when there's many people against you in a strange environment. I know from experience, after literally being stabbed twice and left to die....and it ended up being the best thing that could have ever happened (because of if leading to serious martial arts study).
I sincerely hope Mike is able to re-frame this incident, and turn it into something positive down the road. It's ok, Mike, you got stabbed a few times, you just have to redirect this, and do what needs to be done....you are the only one that truly knows what that is my friend...get 'R' done!!!
What, again?
I have a problem with what's at the center of this "humorous" writing by omgwtf.
There's no denying that she can be funny, that's for sure.
Meanspirited, too. And if she possessed a little more specific information, maybe she wouldn't be quite as proud of herself over this literary accomplishment of hers.
But all that to the side, it sounds like things between them, MD & OMG, went sideways as a result of her and her friends going beyond being mere spectators at the match, they became part of the show.
IMO, if you are so disinterested in a match that you are now becoming a distraction to one of the players because you feel compelled to go shopping on your phone, I think it's time for you to leave. That behavior, I believe, was from a friend sitting with OMG.
And to OMG, herself, who said she was simply relaying the scores of the match on her phone, as if this should excuse her also being a distraction, to that I say, tell the cheap recipients of your kindness to BUY THE EFFING PAY PER VIEW AND THEY'LL KNOW THE SCORE! You know, support pool.
To be sure, Mike has some adjustments to make in how he comports himself, but he knows that and is working on it. But does his behavior rise to the level that he should be subjected to this sort of humor, seemingly straight out of 7th-grade, where substance requires constant embelleshment by way of head-size references? BTW, and worth noting imo, is that all that doesn't seem to slow down the pretty girls from wanting to hang out with him.
Apparently, it's not always enough to attend an event and share the experience with your readers. Sometimes you have to become part of the story, yourself.
I suppose a blogger's got to do what a blogger's got to do.
I think there's room for more than one person to do a little personal introspection.
I'm well aware that my opinion may not be popular but, like MD, I have thick skin, so bring it. :wink:
best,

She paid, I would guess, to be in the studio, why does that not count? So what she was texting, was she making it known to everyone in the studio? I doubt it. Let's face it, we all look for excuses. Your excuse, for Mike no less, is that she and her friends were distracting him. ABSURD! Mike was clearly outclassed, he knew he had NO CHANCE of winning and this was the first of many, "I need excuses" phase. If Mike doesn't want the negative press, don't create a negative situation...especially if you can't handle it..Clearly, he can NOT!
WOW...Are you dating Dechaine or something?
