Official Judo Thread IX: Banned By The French Edition

[Zankou]

Hajime!

 

[Uchi Mata]

Sacre` Bleu!

 

[Kaffe]

On n'a pas tout simplement faire d'autres choses que le judo!

 

[seatea]

You human ***** sicken me!

EDIT: *****.

EDIT2: C-ocks.

 

[Uchi Mata]

Every time you hit an ouchi with a leg grab training MMA Jacques Rogge make Teddy Riner kill a kitten. Remember that.

 

[Judo Thai Boxer]

It's up to the British and Americans to save them once again.

 

[Uchi Mata]

It's up to the British and Americans to save them once again.

You can save the French from the Germans as many times as you like, but you can never save them from themselves.

Jesus, Rj... you just sent me spinning into a wormhole back to my wasted youth...




On the subject of Judo (and the French, tangentially), I have a message for any lurking new-dokas who may soon be heading to their first tournament;


Ignore everything, EVERYTHING, the ref yells at you with the exception of 'Hajime' and 'Mate'. Hell, ignore 'Mate' until the ref or your opponent starts tapping you.

I went north of the Wall into Quebecistan for a tournament this past weekend, and I lost track of the amount of times I saw a couple of yellow, orange or green belts stop in the middle of a match to stare at the suited man who had just yelled something incomprehensible in French-Accented Japanese. Without fail, the first competitor who realized 'Oh, that must have been a Yuko or something' turned the match around for the win while his opponent was still gaping.

I've been guilty of this. I was securing a kimura and the ref yelled and I thought I had to let go. Then we got stood up and I lost. First tournament confusion, yo.

If 30 Sherdoggers invade, they should surrender and give us what we want right?

 

[jackson001]

Hypothetically speaking, if Teddy Riner gets Uchi mata'd into Ippon, does France ban Uchi Mata?

 

[Zankou]

You can learn a lot of judo from video games.

Done it too. In France, coincidentally enough.

 

[TheFakeMacoy]

Nah, that's a technique Riner uses. If he get's seoi nage'd however, then that's getting banned.

 

[Thrawn33]

Nah, that's a technique Riner uses. If he get's seoi nage'd however, then that's getting banned.

But you still have to know it for kata!

"We have decides that these techniques approved by the Father of Judo are in fact against the spirit of Judo...in competition...practice your kata you kyu scum and give us your Shodan money!"

"Stop right there you criminal scum! Your hand touched his leg!"

Mon dieu, I pronounced new-dokas as nude-okas! :icon_chee
