Re: How does one prepare for THE fight?
It all begins the day before the "Big Day" let me give you guys the run down...
9:30pm-1:45am - This time is spent wisely drinking as many Coronas, Heinekens, New Castles, or whatever your drink of choice may be, in an effort to passout as soon as possible and get this retarded day before the "Day" over with. However it usually ends in a argument with someone who knows nothing about what they are talking about and jumping in their face as if you were about to go twelve rounds.
1:45am-just before sunrise - Realizing that you didnt drink enough to pass out you sit and wonder how exaclty your fighter is actually gonna dismantle the other guy. KO? TKO? Cuts? Decision? Then of course you get up and have to review every youTube or taped fight to make sure you can email this information to the FanCLub and give him that last second adjustment that he desperaltely needed to win the fight; only to remember you didnt include your name so he wont be thanking you afterward druing the post fight interview...damn!
Sunrise to 8:30am - You slept, but the sheer excitment made that a short adventure. But you did dream of your guy running down the beach shirtless with a light sweat coming off his....errrrrr I mean how bad ass the fight was gonna be, ya thats what it was.
8:30am-4:45pm - This is another retarded set of hours that you really cant do anything about they are usually filled with getting the BBQ set up, filling the cooler up with ice beer, etc. Bringing the best TV in the house (whoch is usually in your room) into the living room our outdoor area for more space. Making sure you order the fight 5 times just to be sure (this is followed by arguing with the cable company about 30 days later about why they would think that you're stupid enough to order the fight 5 times...but thats another story.)
4:45pm-5:45pm - This actually to me is a very peaceful time its filled with serene moments of tranquility and intense meditation. As you visualize and plan for the events that will take place. You may or may not shower and get ready for your visitors to come by. Personally, you can imagine me getting ready kind of like the scene out of Saturday Night Fever, before John T. goes to the club, getting ready with the Bee Gees in the background kinda doing alittle Tango Hustle as I comb my hair....Al Pacino!! (Lets see who knows the movie that well)
6:00pm-9:00 - It gets hazy here, but usually theres yelling screaming nail biting, punches to the air, and you always tell someone to "shut the 'f' up" and "sit the 'f' down". Tears, sweat, beer, and cigerette smoke between the fights. Furniture might break a baby might be crying in the background and your wife may not give you a bj for about a week cuz you spilled beer on the couches again.
9:01-the rest of the following week- Cry or Brag.
thats it in a nutshell.
