The Ultimate in Martial Arts

**Hardball** · 11-22-2005, 08:57 PM

Hey,

Nice to meet the gang. I've been posting here for over a year and just wanted to introduce myself and experiment with posting a pic. This is me, I'm an old man, retired and now teaching private jujitsu lessons.

Peace Out,

Hardball

Why do you ask? Are you putting me on trial? It's in my profile.{Just kidding}

I'm not a WANNABEE and I am not gonna claim to be the World Champion with an undefeated record. In fact, I come from the school of hard knocks, a streetfighter, fighting to survive not for money or trophies but to stay alive. My Black Belt is in Japanese Jujitsu but I have cross trained in several arts. I have been in dozens and dozens of REAL FIGHTS thus my unarmed combat experience is intensive. I teach self defense; not sport martial art. I could name drop and tell you all of the Grandmasters I have met and trained with but that would only get me in trouble; for what else--Name dropping. LOL

this is a good idea. some kid a while back had an idea for people to post a pic and a bit about themselves as a thread but no one beside him did it. I think all anyone else didi was sass the kid about his build. come to think of it I may find it and revive that thread...

I saw that thread but could not figure out how to post a pic at the time. All of a sudden a light came on and I figured out how to post the pic.

I just got done putting one up in the Muay Thai forum because I did not want to hijack your thread. It was my first time using a pic to. It seems so easy after the light goes on...
