#1 Good diagnoses of the shortcomings of the IDF. And, as we mentioned, if the lunatic Hezbs experience any more "victories" like this, they'll remand all Lebanon back to the 19th century.

#2 Lasting longer than six days is considered a "victory"?

Is this like Randall Cobb vs. Larry Holmes? Turned into fresh hamburger but, because he wasn't knocked stone cold out, he "won"?

#3 LOL .com

You just dated yourself , as did I. :)

I honestly think that was round one, Israel vs Hezbos, and not well done by politics. Israel wasn't given the green light by their gov't and their tactics and their stance suffered from it.

LOL Randall "Tex" Cobbs, you reached back for that one

#4 We had a Pay-Per-View party, lol. Tex had a stone jaw, that's for damned sure. Holmes hit him with everything but the stool in his corner, lol. Made me tired just watching him wail on Cobb. :-}

#5 or Chuck Wepner - if he hadn't lost his entire bodily blood content, it was a moral victory. The ring may have looked like an abbatoir, but he was still standing

#6 com/Dunno - I was thinking more along the lines of Jerry Quarry. The guy took a beatdown almost every time and always said "He never laid a glove on me!"
