that banning shit is too gdlk bwhahahaha
Look.
I know a lot of you here are too nice to really hate your opponent or what not, so it’s hard for you to get the fire. And I know some of you think the guys who take it this seriously are just insane. But I can assure you, we are not insane. Well, Kai is, but for entirely different reasons.
So I’m going to try and put this in a different perspective. I’m known in the community for being a “nice” guy (even though the people who really know me know that I’m an asshole). And I said this on the stream last night, and I think it bears repeating here.
You don’t have to be someone who is an asshole or someone who wants to fucking kill your opponent in order to become a top player. If that’s not your nature, then that’s fine. But there’s one thing that cannot be acceptable no matter what type of person you are.
YOU CANNOT BE COMPLACENT WITH LOSING.
I said this on the stream: even if you are playing your best friend, even if you are playing someone you know is way better than you, even if you are playing someone who uses a character you have no familiarity with, YOU SHOULD NEVER BE COMPLACENT WITH LOSING. To put it more succinctly:
BE PISSED OFF WHEN YOU LOSE.
People think I’m a nice guy, but fuck if I’m not mad every time I lose. I’m STILL steaming from not making the L.A. West Team from this past Sunday. I’m STILL mad I lost twice to EvilElvis that weekend. I’ve been thinking about those matches all week long. I still wish I could go back and redo those matches. I mean, when I lost, he could tell I was pissed. And even though I have nothing against Warren himself, fuck me that I lost to him. Do I think I’m better than him? Who cares?!? Fuck me that I lost to him! That’s all that needs to be said!
Last night, I lost to Sanchez’s Ryu. And yeah, Sanchez is my boy. In fact, if he ever wanted to chill with me, I’d definitely 100%… think about it. (I’m just fucking with you, Sanchez, you my homie.) But after I lost to him, twice that night I looked at him and said, “FUCK YOUR RYU.”
Now, I was teasing him when I said it, but I can’t lie: there is a lot of truth to what I said. I was not pleased with losing to his Ryu. So Sanchez, I repeat it again: FUCK YO’ RYU. Fuck your 3rd Strike-styled, weird-ass Ryu!!! And even today, I’m trying to process what the hell Sanchez did to beat me in that match. He played unlike most Ryus I’ve faced, and I’m still trying to process why that is, and what it was that he did that threw me off so badly. Again, Sanchez is my boy, but I’m still mad I lost.
I’m not content. I’m not happy. I lost to Valle 24 matches in a row one night, I remember. And you’d think by the 24th match, I’d be desensitized to the losses. But no, man, I was pissed. He landed the same shit on me over and over again and I kept yelling out, “Why am I falling for that EVERY time?!? Fuck!” There’s no way ANYONE, even Valle, should be able to beat me 20 times in a row. Fuck that garbage. I don’t care how good Valle is, 20+ wins against me means I suck. And I sure as hell am not gonna sit idly by and let it stay that way. And in fact, the next time we played an extensive streak against each other, his biggest win streak was only 12!!! Ha! I halved that shit! So next time we play, his biggest streak will only be 6. That’s a promise!!!
So yeah, you can be buddies with everyone and everything, but when you lose, you gotta be mad. You gotta take it to heart. NEVER be complacent with a loss. Never, ever feel like you should have lost. Even if your opponent is your bestest buddy in the world, BFF, overall super-swell-cool-dude, be mad. Be fucking pissed when you lose. And figure out why he won and figure out how to counter that shit. You can be friends later.

P.S. For those of you who avoided coming without a legit reason (I know a ton of people who didn’t show who had legit things come up, so that’s fine, perfectly understood) and ESPECIALLY for those of you who didn’t come because you were afraid to get banned, I just wanted to say that Sherryjenix showed up and competed and even gave us one of the most clutch matches of the night. After she won that match, she said into the stream, “I don’t lose!!” Even she has the right attitude. Even though she did get banned in the end, she had the drive to put it all on the line.
In other words, she has WAY MORE cajones than any of you people who decided to bail last week for fear of getting banned. And you know who you are! I want you to think about that.
Hi James,
It’s time to admit that most of these guys will never be top players or even decent players. I see what you and Valle and those guys try to do, but for every Kobe Bryant there is 100 Kwame Browns.
So just give up on them, they have no chance of being good anyways. If what I say makes them mad than good, maybe they will prove me wrong, but I highly doubt it, been around the block and when every new SF game comes out, it’s always the same pattern.
LOL :looney:
And for every 100 Kwame Browns, there’s 1000 Smush Parkers
bowdown.
Real talk.
hahahaha but ya seriously thats what i am seeing a lot. you guys need to get pissed when you lose, im so fucking pissed when i lose to the same people in tournament over and over. (mike ross, sin, moval, etc) it doesnt matter if they are better, or i am better or anything, a loss is a loss and you shouldnt be happy about it. i dread and think about EVERY loss against players, whether they be good or not i get pissed at myself. you know what my motivation is though? to get fucking better and hope i play them in tournament the next time so i can get my revenge and kick their ass. do i hate them in real life? no, those dudes are chill and cool to hang out with but when you play serious, things change all i am thinking is i want to fuck this guy up, and im not that type of guy, it takes a lot for me to hate you. at the end when i lose am i happy about it? no you guys need to get mad, step your shit up and prove yourself. am i anyone to talk? no but seriously why the fuck are you saying gg to the guy that made you lose and got you banned from shgl’s house where it has top players that go there every wednesdays?
True. But for every Kobe Bryant, there are also maybe 4 or 5 Trevor Arizas, who leave and become leading scorers on a depleted Houston team. If we can find the 4 or 5 Arizas in the sea of 100 Kwame Browns (or 1000 Smush Parkers or 5000 Samaki Walkers), it’s worth it.

You should write a FAQ on getting mad. Do you get mad when I beat you 20 in a row? :wgrin:
5000 Samaki Walkers:rofl:
awesome haha
i need to copy/paste some of your guys’ posts to SD thread
also, this guy should get banned:
[media=youtube]f-AaMrY_F0o#t=7m8s"[/media]
That was a good one. A very good one.
I’ll raise your 5000 Samaki Walkers with 10000 Brian Scalabrines.
