    My bad:good

    I'm pretty wrecked don't get the Duran reference at all, though seeing as you're an awesome writer I doubt you believe Duran is a bum :lol: the only Manson I can think of is Charles Manson. Not a lot of people know what a good songwriter Manson was. Still dint get how you're comparing Duran to him, who was neither an acoustic troubador nor someone who incited murder.

    I'm Stonehands. I love Duran. But I was as objective as I could possibly be when calculating placements.

    Here's the reason for the comparison:

    Seeing as Langford's not going to be considered, the final 6 must comprise of Robinson, Greb, Armstrong, Charles, Duran, and Ali. Maybe in that order?:think

    Hm, Stonehands wrote earlier that Burley edged someone who is an idol for many on here, so I guess he meant either Ali or Duran.

    I'm very fond of him and thought he may be in the 7-9th range but as high as 6th? But then we had already a big surprise with Burley, so it very well might be. Would be great to see him geting his due :good

    The Sixth has just been sent to the editor. I'm hoping it will be up tonight, but it's more likely to be up tomorrow.

    Post 20-10? Nah. Not yet anyway.

    The old Mongoose will be in there somewhere...I'll guess Moore, Charles, Duran, Robinson,Armstrong and Greb. This is just a tremendous effort...Each is a masterpiece for the fight fan. Stonehands...we salute you.
