Greg EganThey’re keeping awfully quiet about who the contenders are who’ll be challenging for the British throne tomorrow in the pre-coronation MMA fights.
Duncan MacGregor@gregeganSF it certainly takes some nerve to go for it. I mean if you win it's great, but if you lose Charles gets to eat your still beating heart.
Bill Hooker 😷@gregeganSF Pretty sure I could take ol' Jug-Ears in a fight. But I don't want the job.
Blake C. Stacey@gregeganSF The press is really slacking off with their coverage of all the traditional aspects of transferring the crown: ear poison, stabbing councilors through an arras, confronting witches on a barren heath... It's like no one cares about old-fashioned values any more.
llewelly@gregeganSF I'm tellin' you it's a rigged game. charley horse will win.
Mike Fraser@gregeganSF I'd seriously be down with a figure head monarch that had ascended to the throne in trial by combat.
RevJeber@jeber @gregeganSF That might be one of the events. I was thinking good old fashioned cage match.
Tony Fisk@gregeganSF There are those who might contend that the title of Charles III is already claimed by a bonny prince.
