What do Butterbean, Mike Tyson and a Hanging Noose Have in Common?



There is never anything funny about the hateful imagery of a noose. However, I have to admit that I smiled a little when I heard that Mitch Green reported that a noose was hanging in front of his New York home earlier this week.

Do y'all remember Mitch Green?

He is best known for (a) beating a huge boxer named Butterbean and (b) getting beat down by Mike Tyson out in the streets one night (ala Rocky V).


Villagers, I have to admit that there is a small piece of me that thought Green might have planted the noose just to get his name in the paper. What say u? Legit or publicity stunt?

  5. Ms Marvalous & Muze - It is a shame when your reputation is so poor that people have doubts about your claims on a matter as serious as 'nooses'. You come into this world with only your NAME (reputation). Do all that you can do to maintain the integrity of it. Gang banging and other illegal activity ruins your name, character and reputation ... as Mitch Green discovers day-by-day.
