• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

The man who taught me to question everything and everyone has gone to his eternal home. Loyal husband, loving father, and the original viking, he went quietly by himself in his home. Losing his wife of 55 years in March he was never the same. He was a survivor of the Vietnam wsr seving two tours. Bronze Star recipient he never uttered a word to anyone abput being a mustang infantry officer in that quagmire. He served a country that never really served him. Agent orange survivor he beat throst cancer, prostate cancer, and never bitched or moaned about any of it. Love you Dad and your service will never be forgotten. His blood runs still in 6 grand children and two proud sons. He is now reunited with the love of his life and now finally at peace.

Prayers are with you, Brother. Skol
 


Tyson was great against tomato cans. But when he fought skilled fighters like Holyfield, he was outclassed. I guess Spinks was Tyson's best win at that point. All the other big name guys he'd fought at that point were way past their prime, like Larry Holmes.

Lennox Lewis treated Tyson they way Tyson did all those guys he fought in the 80s. Riddick Bowe would've done the same.

How did the bronze star certificate get burned?

I’ll ask my wife to light a candle for him tonight and say a traditional Wiccan funeral prayer.

Peace be with you and him.
