Will we outlive martial arts?

Not one to put a dampner on things but do you think MA will always be with us & maybe adapt into something like Rollerball where we watch people die for fun, or will world peace (yeah right) phase out all aggressive sports and take on tiddly winks as the prefered hobby.

That pic is awesome. I always said that is what I would do if I had to fight in Hockey. But I'd have used a different kick.

This would require either massive social engineering or genetic engineering. Males are aggressive. Even if there were world peace there would be local skirmishes. And even if there were no crime or random violence (a huge IF), men would still want to roll around and wrestle and beat the snot out of one another. Its all that testosterone. Forces are working on the social engineering bit. All this metrosexual crap and Queer Eye and all that. So we need to do our part to fight this social castration of men and fight even more.

People dying for fun eh? Yes, lets bring back gladiators!

[kh_s]

speaking of gladiators, have you seen the movie gladiators BTW ?

[RobertG]

Hell yeah, who hasn't seen Gladiator?

Oh wait, you said Gladiators plural--are you talking about the Russel Crowe one or is this some gay porno with swords?
