I've been using ww for awhile now. This is the first time I've ever posted. I usually just enjoy checking out the post, pics, etc.... This guy Joe seems to give alot of people a hard time! Is it just me or does this guy seem a little bitter, or maybe needs another hobby,12000 posts. Holy Sh** Any help!
|
Here goes (RUNS AWAY FROM THREAD)
|
Joe Umali = one of the nicest guys you will ever meet.
|
I haven't seen many post of Joe being bitter. He seems decent to me and had something to do with a wake video of two.
|
and, aren't u being pretty bitter yourself my making this thread?
|
Funny with 12k post usually Joe is a first responder.
|
jmarkas = new login for someone here with beef w/Joe?
|
Brandon, if I come off as bitter-my bad. I think curious is a better word.
|
i don't know joe, but i've always pictured him as a pretty cool guy.
|
Joe has his own opinions, you can agree or disagree with him, he really dosen't care. But he is very knowledgeable of our sport and tied into the industry more then most. And a pretty cool guy.
|
TackleBerry I don't understand
|
Don't take everything that Joe says to seriously; he's just a funny guy. <BR> <BR>By the way Joe, I couldn't wait for your 21 epic to come out so I got another 210, sorry.
|
joe, ur the man! can anyone else say that they have a thread totally dedicated to them?
|
hi
|
john, excellent choice!
|
I give Joe two thumbs up <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0>
|

|

|
Twitch-"This is the first time I've ever posted. I usually just enjoy checking out the post, pics, etc."
|
Joe is the MVP of wakeworld members.
|
i love all joe's post's, he will give it to ya straight no sugar coating. and he doesnt mind if you call him out when hes wrong, witch is never, lol. besides that hes a wealth of knolledge when it comes to the industry. thanks joe. <BR> <BR>hey D.W. can we have a wake poll, "is Joe to hard on everyone?" hahaha but good looking out jmar, WORD....
|
As odd as this may seem, happy WakeWorld birthday, Joe. <BR> <BR>Old fart. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/lol.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>(Message edited by scott_a on February 09, 2008)

Hes got a cool dog...theres my two cents on this topic haha
|
I have known Joe for many years. Yes back in the day, Joe would get on here and F*** with people for fun, but not in a VERY long time (2+ years?). I can't remember when, but Joe mellowed out quite a bit. <BR> <BR>ip check please???? and feel free to post the match on here.
|
hes just the fastest poster in the west. thats all
|
Joe is a good cat. One thing that will strike you when you get to know Joe is that despite any crap he may give someone, he views the people on this board as his friends. Take his ish giving with a grain of salt and realize he's a good fella to know, you might run into him someday and find out first hand. Plus, he could probably beat any of us to death with his left hand. You have been warned.
|
Maybe Joe is really Chuck Norris; not Randall.

jmar = epic!!!!
|
so...is Joe an "internet toughguy"?
|
JOE IS THE MAN! <BR> <BR>He used to give me a hard time, you have to earn his respect! <BR> <BR>KEEP UP THE AWESOMENESS UMALI!
|
Joe is a natural lurker. Up late, multiple browsers open, 4-5 sites at a time, blood shot eyed, watching, waiting . . . for posts about himself. <BR> <BR>To throw you guys off, he posts every now and again. It is an act. He'd rather not be seen. <BR> <BR>Creep . . .
|
If ur new, joe may seem 'bitter' as you've put it, but in time you will get to understand his humor. Besides i really appreciate that he says things as they are, and not sugar coat them as someone else put it.
|
i meet joe before, and he was 7 feet tall. My car got blocked in and he picked it up and moved it for me. <BR> <BR>i tried to pay him for the service, but he flew away before i got a chance to. <BR> <BR>great guy.
|
Joe is my X lover. He was and probably stills is one of the most tender caring men I've ever known. <BR> <BR>I still miss you Joey Bear.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>
|
I saw a picture of Joe once, but the horizon in the background wasn't level so it was destroyed...
|
Joe simply treats conversations on the board as if they were happening in real life. If you were talking to a guy who said to you, "I think your boat sucks", you'd probably have a word or two with him. Online, people try to get away with stuff they wouldn't normally, and Joe calls them on it. Good for him, I wish more people would.
|
Joe is a meany.
|
Chase you are so right. <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR>Joe is.....well damn, he is my best friend!
|
Joe is great....that's the bottom line
|
I am posting in here just to bump this thread up next to the Sarcasm thread. <BR> <BR>Chase pretty much summed up my thought on this subject . . .
|
Plain and simple, joe transcends time and space with his very existence. <BR>Also , hes the only man who can chase my girlfriend around while snapping strange pictures of her without me punching him. Gotta love joe.
|
Joe's usualy the first guy to respond to any video editing questions I have. Always seemed cool to me. I bet he doesn't even know who I am though. <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" ALT=":-(" BORDER=0>
|
I can personally attest that Joe has been around forever. I think I remember first seeing him back in 96-97 or something. In wakeboard/internet years that is about a lifetime.
|
i dont know him except for all the post i read from him but one thing is sure : i dont think i will have my own related thread talking about me on WW in my whole life and JOE yes, i think he is now famous, joe are you going to the Grammys tonight ? .... thumbs up !! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>
|
Joe = King of Sarcasm. I love it, makes for a good laugh on a boring day, even when I am the target, which does happen.
|
I don't know Joe, but I just bought the "Chick Flick" and he worked on it, I gotta say it was pretty SIIIICK! I cant believe I slept on buying it for as long as I did.
|
it sounds like joe has many fans and friends and i bow to all of them.
|
LOL I just saw this post and read through it. I was laughing the whole way through. A few years ago when I first started boarding and found this site, I knew nothing about wakeboarding, I just knew I loved it. I noticed Joe posted more then most people and tended to be oppiionated which was fine with me. After being on the board a few years now, Joe is probably one of the most knowledgeable guys on this thread. I may not agree with everything he posts but he does have alot more insight on the sport then i do and usually will answer any questions you have about it....Except maybe Joe are you bitter? I think Joe became Bitter when he looked at my profile pic and saw that is was I who was the shizzle dizzle andnot him.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>
|
Joe Umali <BR>Ladies Man <BR>Man's Man <BR>Man about Wakeboarding
|
he could be my father, my mom says we may never know
|
over all nice guy and pretty much tells it like it is. Some people can't handle that. Much respect to you joe. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by sivodd on February 10, 2008)

Is Joe that guy who stole Arun's wave at the hook? <BR>Kicked sand in Kyle's face and stole his g-friend? <BR>Gave wakeboard lessons to the Vandal? <BR>Stole AntBug's minivan? <BR>hmmmmm, probably not! <BR> <BR>But he is the guy who.. <BR>is one of the nicest guy you'll ever meet! <BR>has the balls to tell you how it is! <BR>will hook a brotha/sist'a up! <BR>traveled the US filming the top female wakeboarders in the sport! <BR>flew 600 miles at a moments notice to film/edit for pretty much 48 hours straight to help a friend out!
|
Sometimes I just want to strangle the guy! But he's my buddy!
|
Maybe Joe just made a new account so he could get everyone to give him some love.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>
|
I remember when Joe told me once "you're not new here, you should have seen this comming..." after a response to a nonsense post. <BR> <BR>I thought to myself - I finally made it! Umali recoginizes my screenname! YAAAA!!!!! <BR>My life has been downhill ever since...<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>
|
he is just a wild and crazy guy!
|
IS JOE UMALI REALLY CHUCK NORRIS????
|
fly135 beat me to it!!! <BR>Jmarkas = j. Umali or his past alter ego "jumalian"....
|
we've just witnessed ultimate gayness from a couple people accusing me of starting this. <BR> <BR>i have the support of my friends, whether they post in here or not. you really think i'm so insecure that i would start this? i've been posting here for years. i think i've earned my keep. <BR> <BR>actually, to clear this up, why not ask dave to post the original poster's IP address? and maybe compare it with other current users since we know it's an alias and compare it with mine.
|
do it! we want justice!!
|
deltagrubber and fly135 its pretty obvious from all the posts that there is alot of love for joe with or without this post. joe u i never meant to offend, its clear i didn't understand your style, my bad.
|
haha, Chase is going for the kill!
|
chuck norris wears joe umali pajamas
|
Joe, I don't have the attention span to read everything here...are you at the LA boat show?
|
Humor is dead on WW.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0>
|
Andrea's right, "king of sarcasm" seems like a good description for him on wakeworld. Other qualities about him include being a really good photographer, filmer/video editor, worker, rider(style to the extreme), friend, family man, dog trainer for his cutest dog Moby and comedian<IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>
|
rae <BR> <BR>did you put a smiley on the end of your post as an indication that your entire post was sarcastic or just the "comedian" part? <BR> <BR>If it was the former, I feel sorry for Joe. That would pretty much ruin his legacy. The comedian part I understand . . . (no smiley for vagueness purposes)
|
Raequel, <BR> <BR>You hit it on the head. Great photographer/video man, etc. Been on my boat(awesome rider) and always welcome back. A bit of sarcasm never hurt. Everyone just take a chill pill. Joe is a great guy! <BR> <BR>Joe, now that I kissed your butt, when am I going to get to detail your rides? <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0>
|
Everyone needs to stop kissing Umali's arse!
|
I think this is awesome. An entire thread devoted to kissing someone's ass. <BR> <BR>As much as it pains me to admit it.. I really like Joe. He has a great heart and was one of a handful of people invited to our wedding for this very reason.
|
buzz, my truck desperately needs a detail after going through snowstorms and such. unfortunately, i'm unemployed at the moment, so $$$ for detailing my truck's not high on the priority list. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>rae, you forgot "kick ass team manager!" <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0>
|
KRIS, nah, not at the l.a. boat show. was there on saturday though.
|
Damn Asian Camera Guys!
|
Joe is Asian? on his mySpace profile it states that he's White, 6' 5", athletic build, and 275 lbs..
|
Your right dave, joes body is like a large steel factory...unstoppable. The first time heard about this camera toting, sarcastic 275 pound asian madman, all i could think was "can you even imagine how hard this guy parties?"
|
Joe Umali for President!!
|
Dammit I miss living in SoCal and riding with the other peeps in this thread! <BR> <BR>P.S. I miss Joe and Frankie. And Moby. And Ollie.
|
Buzz!!!! How ya doin?????? Didn't see you at a tourney last year!!<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>But Joe was there!!! <BR> <BR>(Message edited by rnopr8 on February 13, 2008)

Don't mess with Joe on this site. He has his own posse and they know how to find you. I made that mistake once and now I have no job and am homeless. Some say he is The Godfather of wakeboarding.
