What’s next, the Bloods and Crips sitting down for some fried chicken and waffles at Roscoe’s, chased with some 40 ounce bottles of St. Ides?
(I am a Roscoe’s fan and patron so go there if you ever get the chance in Los Angeles. I just wonder who the culinary genius was who first thought of such a delightful combo on one plate. It ,may be Mike Tyson’s all time fave rave other than Ear Of Holyfield.)
Coach Freddie Roach goes deep into enemy territory today at Madison Square Garden. I looked at the panel for the press conference to hype the May 15 Paulie Malignaggi-Amir Khan bout and it looked like a list of Manny Pacquiao Character Assassins.
Jeez, I can;’t wait for, either, the verbal bullets and backstabbing to commence or get thrown out, whichever comes first.
Not that I would ever want to pour any gasoline on an already burning fire, lol.
This should be some boxing barbecue, my friends, if the personalities speak nastily about Pacman the way they have in the past. Just hoping everybody who has assailed Manny as a drug cheater doesn’t go all Nancy Boy at this roast.
(Pacland) Manny Pacquiao may get “roasted” by character assasins convention in New York today
Leading off the Pacman Hater list is, of course, the voluble Malignaggi, who runs his mouth nonstop about how Pacquiao could not possibly performing so magnificently without illegal additives.
If anyone flips the script and reverses form, it won’t be the Brooklyn fighter. Yo Paulie speaks his mind, even when he is 1000 percent wrong and sans even a shred of proof.

Then there’s Golden Guy Schaefer. According to Pinoy sports reporting veteran Ronnie Nathanielsz he was in RRS’ GBP headquarters last year, when Schaefer emphatically told him they all knew that Manny was fueling his wild success with illegal substances.
To the best of my knowledge, Herr Schaefer has never denied this or never said he was misquoted, taken out of context or accused Nathanielsz of being a liar, liar with pantaolones en fuego.
Yet Coach Roach is in the curious position of working on a Golden Boy/DiBella co-promotion as he trains Kid Khan, who recently kicked longtime promoter Fearless Frank Warren to the curb to align himself with Oscar de la Hoya and company.
I’m just glad this event isn’t on for Wednesday, my day of Irish days.
You heard of the old St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, this might have turned into a St. Paddy’s Day wipeout.
This just in: Fr. Marlon, one of Pacman’s growing group of personal priests, confirms to me that Pacquiao is on PED.
“Prayers Every Day.”
I will give y’all a shout out after I get tossed out.
I’d like to say I’ve been 96ed from better places and events but why lie?
