Got into a fight tonight *Updated with pic*

I don't know, LG, I'd say goosehorn is definitely the winner:


The hulk of a man with a beer in his hand he looked like a drunk old fool
And I knew if I hit him right why I could knock him off of that stool
But everybody they said watch out hey that's the Tiger Man McCool
He's had the whole lotta fights and he's always come out winner yeah he's a winner
But I had myself about five too many and I walked up tall and proud
I faced his back and I faced the fact that he had never stooped or bowed
I said Tiger Man you're a pussycat and a hush fell on the crowd
I said let's you and me go outside and see who's the winner
Well he gripped the bar with one big hairy hand then he braced against the wall
He slowly looked up from his beer my God that man was tall
He said boy I see you're a scrapper so just before you fall
I'm gonna tell you just a little bout what it means to be a winner
He said now you see these bright white smilin' teeth you know they ain't my own
Mine rolled away like Chicklets down the street in San Antone
But I left that person cursin' nursin' seven broken bones
And he only broke ah three of mine that makes me the winner
He said now behind this grin I got a steel pin that holds my jaw in place
A trophy of my most successful motorcycle race
And each morning when I wake and touch this scar across my face
It reminds me of all I got by bein' a winner
Now this broken back was the dyin' act of a handsome Harry Clay
That sticky Cincinnati night I stole his wife away
But that woman she gets uglier and she gets meaner every day
But I got her boy that's what makes me a winner
He said you gotta speak loud when you challenge me son cause it's hard for me to hear
With this twisted neck and these migraine pains and this big ole cauliflower ear
And if it wadn't for this glass eye of mine why I'd shed a happy tear
To think of all that you gonna get by bein' a winner
I got arthritic elbows boy I got dislocated knees
From pickin' fights with thunderstorms and chargin' into trees
And my nose been broke so often I might lose if I sneeze
And son you say you still wanna be a winner
Now you remind me a lotta my younger days with your knuckles a clenchin' white
But boy I'm gonna sit right here and sip this beer all night
And if there's somethin' that you gotta gain to prove by winnin' some silly fight
Well okay I quit I lose you're the winner
So I stumbled from that barroom not so tall and not so proud
And behind me I still hear the hoots of laughter of the crowd
But my eyes still see and my nose still works and my teeth're still in my mouth
And you know I guess that makes me the winner
 
Longhorngirlie called her website silly.

I could give a **** what some stranger thinks of me - I'm talking about looking in the mirror. Don't get me wrong, I don't go looking for fights and haven't been in on since my late 20's - several years ago - but I'm not going to let some ******** berate me and my friends mercilessly. I'll do everything I can to stay out of a fight, but sometimes the other guy just knows which buttons to push and doesn't lay off. As I earlier said, goosehorn got lucky in that neither of them really got hurt, but I sure as Hell won't sit here and tell him he's 100% wrong for what happened.
 
Women are too passive aggressive to actually fight.

It's been my experience that a lot of times, women are able to say things to each other and to men, that men wouldn't say, lest the conversation end in fisticuffs.
 
I think I've gotten the drift:

Every man ought to be a macho macho man,
To live a life of freedom, machos make a stand,
Have their own life style and ideals,
Possess the strength and confidence, life's a steal,
You can best believe that he's a macho man
He's a special person in anybody's land.

Hey! Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Macho, macho man (macho man)
I've got to be, a macho man
Macho, macho man
I've got to be a macho! (dig the hair on my chest)

Macho, macho man (see my big thick mustache)
I've got to be, a macho man
Macho, macho man
I've got to be a macho! (Dig broad shoulders)

Macho, macho man (dig my muscles!)
I've got to be, a macho man
Macho, macho man
I've got to be a macho!

Macho, macho man
I've got to be, a macho man
Macho, macho man
I've got to be a macho! HEY!
 
I agree with everything LonghornGirlie said. A person that sees them self as a "*****" for avoiding an unnecessary physical confrontation probably has a subconscious fear that they really are one.
 
As I said previously, we all have different opinions on this topic.

But I'll sleep better tonight knowing that ThirdCoast, LonghornGirlie and UTbone04 aren't manning that wall tonight!!
 
LHG certainly doesn't pull any punches.

Goose, you're kinda cute in a rough and tumble sort of way. Whenever you're back in town hit me up and I will buy you a Shiner.
 
Thanks TXNOS, I will "hit" you up on that.

Just an FYI guys and girlies, that is a pic of the dude that I got into a fight with. He has it as his facebook profile pic.
 
Let me see if I've got this right.

If you fight, you're a *****. If you don't fight, you're yellow and the coward of the county.

I would say that the most important thing to remember is that a fistfight is not that big of a deal - two men were angry, they couldn't settle it peaceably, they had a fistfight and now it's all settled

I for one am just glad there were no lawsuits.
 
I am much more opposed to talking down to someone and calling them a ***** on the internet, than I am to a mutually agreed upon physical confrontation.
 
This thread is out of control when people start claiming that no man should ever stand up and fight under any circumstance outside of first being physically assaulted.
 
I'm sorry you got into a fight, but since you're a Longhorn and a HornFan, I'm glad you won.

Next!
 
how have i missed this thread?

hey sometimes a guy just needs to get his asskicked. or at the very least popped in the mouth. it happened to me when i was about 15. i was talking a lot of crap and some guy and me got into it and he pretty much dominated me from start to finish. a fight that i completely provoked.

i haven't "picked" a fight since. in fact i've been in three over the last ten years, all of which really had nothing to with me. but i was there.

i have to disagree with lhg and others on this one. sometimes it is the right time. it certainly isn't very often, but i believe this was one of those times.
 
Just today at the Seabrook post office, some guy was backing out and didn't see me behind him as I was waiting for another guy to pull out of a spot. He was backing out slow and I just moved out of his way into the parking spot next to him. I thought nothing of it. Simple mistake on his part. Then, as I am gathering my packages to take inside, I sense him pull alongside behind my truck. I look up and he is freaking out at me with his wife looking on. Apparently, he didn't like me being behind him while he was backing out. This guy I don't think could have taken me by any stretch, but he was calling me all sorts of things, "USC ****** (had my hat on)," "***** ************," "Why don't you step over here," etc. His wife was embarrassed, but I just looked at him and laughed. Hard. Maybe I overdid it a bit, but a few folks in the parking lot laughed at me laughing at the guy as he drove off. I'm sure his wife was embarrassed. Had he gotten out and confronted me, that would have been a different situation. I have a wife and 2 small children to think about, so I sure certainly will not be getting into a physical fight just because of the insults he is yelling at me. He has to deal now with his wife thinking what a d-bag he is for embarrassing her like that.
