In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?
Video doing rounds on Facebook. Can't believe most if the stuff, absolutely crazy!
...really?
The Bruce Lee films where they've dubbed on the 'ees' and 'ahhs' later are some of the funniest films ever made.
An actor who couldn't knock snow off a rope. His movies are pretty entertaining, though.
And that table tennis shit is fake.

Pretty sure a lot of that especially the later footage is faked and isn't even Bruce Lee himself.
"Be Water" 
Duh, ofc it is.
But still he started to western revolution in the martial arts movie segment. One of my favorite actors still.
The ping pong and the one where he lights the cigarette were adverts for Nokia
Yeah, he's an actor. Agreed.
Great movies. Questionable fighter.
Great showman, The Big Boss is my favourite Bruce Lee.
Again with the ping pong.

He was brilliant in "No Retreat No Surrender.." too..
I've actually just downloaded that - so then i can report it to the proper authorities!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeet_Kune_Do
Jeet Kune Do, also Jeet Kun Do, and abbreviated JKD, is an eclectic and hybrid martial art system and philosophy of life founded by the martial artist Bruce Lee[2] (1940–1973) in 1967 with simple and direct, or straightforward, movements and non-classical style.
He was a fantastic martial artist, but he never competed so it's impossible to tell how good he would be in a practical fight.

What? He was a great student of martial arts, he was a great actor in martial arts movies, he was a great entertainer. There is no proof in any quarter that he was even a good, never mind great, fighter. I'm a massive Lee fan by the way, but I'm not blinkered.
EDIT: And that's how you hit 1000 posts. Drunk, and arguing. Wonderful.
I wasnt arguing. I was laughing at the very thought you dont rate him as a Martial Artist. You should read up on him as a Martial Artist pioneer - not as an actor. He was an incredible fighter - just chose not to fight anymore like he did growing up. He chose to teach instead. Do your homework!
As for your jibe: "Drunk, and arguing.." - i'm neither & just because someone puts a laughing smiley on a post late at nite, doesnt mean they're any way intoxicated. We all work different hours of the day & i put my shift in from home, so does many others on here.
Regardless of that - if i find something really funny, i acknowledge it with a smiley - thats what they are there for!
To say i'm f*cked-off at that drunk insult, is a complete understatement
Is that your thing though - going around insulting people because you despise the very thought someone's laughed at you, or because of something you said?
Grow up & drop the teenage sense of invincibility. When you do that - welcome to the real world you little arrogant childish twat!
ffshaha
He's a legend, master of fitness. Inspired many fitness pros with his techniques
A less legit version of Steven Segal.

Look at Welshie's post count mate. And take up drinking, it might do you good.

Brilliant
EDIT: 1001, sober with a headache.
EDIT 2: I suppose I should address the point of Bruce Lee. I already said he was a great student of martial arts, although pioneer is a far better and more appropriate term yes. However how can one be a great fighter if they do not prove it by fighting? Theoretically he was a great fighter, not so much proof on paper.
Surely only the most gullible amongst us think he was actually a great fighter?
There's plenty of people who think he'd wipe the floor with Tyson.
As a skinny guy there will always be a place in my heart for people like Bruce. Who hasn't dreamed about beating up an entire school of bullies using only speed, technique and brains, while hardly breaking a sweat?
In the real world there are weight classes, though. Could Bruce beat up a mediocre MMA fighter even if he outweighed him by 20 kilos? Most likely. But a professional? No chance.

I love Bruce Lee, but come on, the guy was 140lbs. Tyson would (possibly literally) kill him. I have little doubt that Lee would happily admit as much himself, were he around to do so (as he reportedly did re Ali).

Yeah I completely agree, but there are plenty of people who think the opposite.
