You idiot. You're confusing lobotomy with liposuction. Lobotomy is THE BRAIN. You can't just go around cutting out bits of the brain whenever you feel like. Moron.


I dunno. I think he's onto something. Big Game needs to drop a stone or ten of fat. A bit of lippo in the skull region wouldn't be the worst place to start.

I'd hate the truth to get in the way of a good rant:

It has been claimed Inglis reported for Rabbitohs duty 118 kilograms or more, with former Brisbane fitness guru Dean Benton claiming he would not be able to reach his peak fitness for at least a year. Inglis said he weighed no more than he had any other previous off-season. ''Every year, it's people wanting to make up stories and saying something about my weight,'' Inglis said. ''I don't think I've felt better. I don't know David Benton or whatever his name is. I know he was at the Broncos. I don't know what he's got to do with it - I've never met the guy in my life. If I was him I'd just be quiet. I've got a point to prove throughout the season - I want to show them how fit I am.''

This is true - last year at this time everyone was giving him a hard time saying how big he was. He is a big boy - that is why he can fend/run over players

It was also suggested Inglis had told Gee, as a reason he could not meet him: ''It's raining and I don't think the planes are flying.''
''That's all it is, a suggestion,'' Inglis said. ''It did not happen. I don't know what idiot would come out and say the planes aren't flying because it's raining. I lived in Melbourne - you think planes don't fly out of Melbourne? Rain, hail or shine, the planes still fly down there.''

Re the planes not flying - I like his point re Melbourne, but at the moment he should say as a 'Queenslander' he knows what rain is.

During the stand-off over his contract, Inglis's manager Allan Gainey told the Herald that Inglis was still owed $270,000 by the Storm. Inglis said he might be forced to take legal action over payments he said dated from 2008. ''It's been a dogfight,'' Inglis said. ''But it's almost going up to a legal matter soon. People may say I'm greedy but I think it comes down to a principle. I'm entitled to get that payment, and they're holding off. I was staying at [chief executive] Shane Richardson's house for a while, and I had my wedding, which put a big dent in my budget. We've just got to keep on top of it. They still owe me a lot of money. I know what I need to get paid. It goes back to 2008. It's a long time coming.

Of course I don't agree with him on this point regarding outstanding amounts owed to him from 2008. I think he is greedy - I think this was on of the guys saying - "I'll take a pay cut" - but then not pay his own legal fees - even if it meant the due to the salary cap we would have had to cut one of the 2nd tier player.

Im certainly not going to be throwing stones at Inglis or the Rabbitohs. They could very well have the last laugh in all this, and it could be around october.
