Jake Paul Getting All Fucked Up Is A Real Good News/Bad News Situation Jake Paul has been begging to get his teeth knocked in for a long time. Anthony Joshua finally did just that to the boxing gadfly in the sixth round of Friday’s fiasco of a fight from Miami. Actually, along with breaking a jaw and ending the bout, Joshua’s massive overhand right might have saved two careers.

"Part of it is creative, but the other part is really disruptive because you feel unsafe"... "They don't stop at the stop signs, they don't stop at the streetlights. "It's a coordinated effort pretty much to not follow the street's rules & laws." #SanFrancisco #Oakland #BayArea #sideshows #dirtbikes

I need to #study
#Racetrack #history
And the #land at hand
I could #sculpt the land
Like Grandpa Perry

I like the way the Germans
Bank the corners
You can take them
At higher speeds

People need #recetracks
If we want to cut down on
#Sideshows

It's not hard to figure out
Try to have fun
