A few weeks ago some yanks started a thread moaning about having to keep the Contender results to themselves to spare the Brits from finding out the results.
'If you don't want to know the result don't visit the board', a few of them said.
Now the Calzaghe fight is on in the US on tape delay we Brits have to keep a respectful silence ragarding Joe's _______y tonight to spare the yanks.
So why don't you guys just not view the board then, ::**
Oh how the worm has turned ;D
Shoes on the other foot now, I did try explaining how it works over here in the UK...
May I be so polite as to ask what kind of result finishes with a ______y, except the obvious one? Not to spoil anything of course, but you seem to have made it too easy.
Me spoil anything? Not me, honest guvner :angel:Quote:

I can see not wanting to know about the Contender.....It's a friggiin miniseries!!!!...I loved watching it every week and look forward to it.....so they should save it for Eastside or a US based board.....The Joe C fight I might never get to see so I count on reading the opinions and observations of my Eurpoean Brothers/Sisters!!!!! and if someone can't see the difference between the 2 they need to GTFO (GET THE ..you know the rest) :)Quote:

"If you don't want to know then don't look" is worldwide.
thats why all people ask for is a warning *SPOILERS!* ;)

If I were that worried about not knowing I would steer clear of the board. You never know what new guy signed up yesterday and ruined it for you. It's a foolish gamble and I see no grounds for complaint if you crap out.
It's not new people who do it generally though... ;)
In the thread Bilbo made... the same people complaining about not wanting to have to stear clear of the forum until after they had seen the fight were the same people having a go at people being unhappy about contender spoilers.

@ boxinggoriila, Don't sweat it mate, it was just a tongue in cheek thread really, I just found it amusing that there was a 'Dont spoil this for the yanks' sticky when u all complained about giving the Brits the same treatment.
Personally I couldnt much care as I download every fight I want to see within minutes of it being upped 8)
and in which case call on the mods so we'll put a big ass SPOILER in the thread. Protect and serve :police:Quote:

You yanks is the equivalent to saying you niggers in the context that it's being used in :)
