We were all sitting at the dinner table the night after the Crime and Punishment pay per view. Myself, Lycra, Greta Mace, Maverick, and Rave. I was extremely sore all over and my face and arms were bruised. The match against Enforcer went much longer than I thought it would. It was much more of a physical challenge than what I thought it would be. The veteran Enforcer had a lot more left in the tank than what I thought he had. And everyone here at the dinner table knew it as well…. and they were not being shy about rubbing it in to me in a teasing kind of way.
Maverick Maddox: How are you feeling Dad?
Darren Maddox: What can I say….I’m very sore.
Maverick Maddox: You sure do have a lot of bruises. I know you weren’t expecting Enforcer to be as great as he was against you.
I looked at Maverick in annoyance.
Darren Maddox: Do you REALLY have to use the word “great”?
Greta Mace: I’m very surprised that Enforcer lasted as long as he did.
Darren Maddox: Yeah well, that was just a ONE OFF, believe me.
And then Lycra just had to chime in.
Lycra: You have to admit Darren, he did fantastic against you considering how much younger you are compared to him. You’re in amazing athletic shape and yet Enforcer was able to keep right up with you. He has to be given a lot of praise for that.
I looked at Lycra in frustration and anger.
Darren Maddox: NOT AT MY DINNER TABLE HE DOESN’T. In this house we do not PRAISE ENFORCER.
My one year old son Rave looked at me and started giggling.
Rave Maddox: Daddy mad!
Lycra looked at me.
Lycra: Come on Darren. Surely you can see a little humor in this like we all do. I mean the whole time you said that Enforcer could never last against you and that he was too old to be any kind of a challenge to you in the ring. Yet he went in there and did the exact opposite by keeping up with you physically, and then by actually beating you for the title. You called him old man so many times and completely put him down every chance you got, only for him to completely prove you wrong. I think it’s humorous how it played out between you two.
Darren Maddox: Yeah well I’m glad you find this so hilarious because I DON’T!
I abruptly stood up from the table and walked out of the dining room. I went outside onto the backyard patio, slamming the sliding door shut behind me. I opened the bottle of cold beer I brought out with me and took a swig.
Darren Maddox: “Didn’t Enforcer do great?” …. ”Enforcer deserves praise for lasting against you”…. GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK.
I took another swig of beer and shook my head in anger that my family thought this was hilarious.
TBCB: Anyone can show up at my back patio to talk
Maverick Maddox: How are you feeling Dad?
