    And Briggs has been retired for a while now.

    Got damnit Suge!! I'd been gettin' kind of excited about seein' the Cannon go for it one more time! We just heard he was actually running and ****, now he just said **** it??

    Tell him we'll get a "petition" of sigs that all want him to stay? I'd make a few alias and sign it a gang of times. lol.

    I have a few questions for Briggs, if he can answer them I will retire from ESB

    1. After getting your knocked out cold by Darroll Wilson, how did you manage to land a shot against George Foreman without beating a single ranked contender?

    2. How much did you/your promoter pay the judges to give you the decision against Foreman?

    3. If you weren't a roid freak with an intimidating appearance, would anyone still care about you?

    4. What is the highlight of your career? The gift decision against Foreman, or getting your ass kicked by Lennox Lewis?

    I'd be happier if he'd retire his mouth. I'd be cool with him fighting on though.
