Alonso's Angry Bat Toss ๐Ÿ˜ก

My Formal Apology to the MMA Community

Mar 26, 2009

First off, whatโ€™s been happening in our community is really starting to bother me.ย  I think itโ€™s petty and has no need on this site.ย  With that said I have evidently been part of the problem.ย 

So because Iโ€™ve been so hurtful to certain people on this site, let me say off the bat that Iโ€™m sorry.ย  I didnโ€™t mean to ruffle any feathers with any of my comments but I guess that I have.

Now let me also state that for those of you who donโ€™t like the way I write or think that Iโ€™m uneducated because I happen to misspell a word or two and sometimes just out right miss a word that may or may not be needed in my writing, I really canโ€™t help it.ย 

I rarely ever speak of my problem, but Iโ€™m a bit dyslexic.ย  Itโ€™s not anything that I ever bring up, because now that Iโ€™m adult Iโ€™ve been able to work around it.ย  It creeps up at times, in regards to sentence structure however for the most part I catch my mistakes, but evidently not always.ย 

Iโ€™m sorry for my horrible spelling and I will work on making it better.

Now on to the person who I offended the most on this site, that being Grandma Dee.ย  You of all people know that you were the first writer that I ever became a fan of.ย  Iโ€™ve always loved your articles, and have learned a lot from them.ย 

The truth is reading articles like yours, and Brian Oswald's have made my writing in general much better.ย  As a history student, I have to write a ton and you guys make my writing more complete, so for that I thank you.

My issue with you when all this started was that I felt that you got way over heated when Jessy and Brian were only trying to give you respect and mad props.ย  You for some reason took offense and I took offense to you bashing two writers that I consider to be great writers and friends.ย 

My bad for trying to defend them, and in retrospect I should have let them take care of it themselves and not interfered.ย  I still think that your writing has slipped and I still challenge you to write about something not involving GSP and your hate for those who say a word against him.ย 

With all that said I still am very sorry to upset you.ย  Iโ€™m an adult and as an adult I should have given you the respect that you deserve as an elder in the world and the leader in this site.

To Jessy and Brian Iโ€™m sorry for lowering the standard that you and others have set so high.ย  My actions have helped to bring the community down, and with that I will refrain from writing on here for a bit.ย 

Consider it a self-imposed time out for my actions.ย  While I take this leave of absence, Iโ€™d like to tell all the readers and writers of the community to use what I and others did in the past week and use it as an example of how not to act.ย  Peace out.
