Rocky Boxing

I have to agree with splashnewsonline with this one... BRAVO to Philly for erecting a statue of fictional character Rocky Balboa in the place where the birthplace of America took place.

That brings me to ask the questions..."is this really necessary and how much did all of this cost?" I dunno...this all seems hoaky and dumb. I can honestly say that I have never actually seen any of the Rocky movies...although my 7th grade Reading teacher tried to force us to watch the first one, but me and my friends were too cool to care about learning about whatever it was she tried to teach us. Nor, am/was I interested in seeing a curved lipped, lazy eyed man with an indistinguishable accent try to rise above adversity and what not, because BITCH that is my everyday life okay. But just the part about trying to rise above adversity is my life... I do not have a speech problem, a lip problem, or a lazy eye...unless I am hammered to the wall after 11 tequila shots...thanks. Loved him in Demolition Man though, wait...no, I loved Sandy B in Demolition Man. Furthermore, my life will never be complete until I get a statue of Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charolette erected in the middle of Manhattan okay. [splashnewsonline]
