Frank Shamrock

Just watched hour Goalcast video about being a warrior. OMG! Thank you so much for sharing your story. And thank you for the reminder and motivation to be that warrior!

At Mia St. John's Annual Charity Event. with Mia St. John, George Hamilton, & Thomas Hitman Hearns.

I have been watching a lot of videos about you on Youtube the past few days. I never knew your complete story, or exactly how you were involved with the Shamrocks. I too was from an abusive, physically, home growing up. My path lead me to boys home after boys home until 91 when the courts got sick of me and I was going to a hearing to determine if I should just be sent to CYA until I turned 18. My hearing was at 1pm, and at 11am I was pulled from class and sent to a little office with this yoked up MF'r that had a Steven Segall haircut, also a short balding gentleman. I thought for sure this was it. The conversation went like this, " My name is Bob Shamrock and this is my son Ken. I am getting ready to open up a new home in Lockford, would you like to join?" I was like uhhh, ya but I have a hearing today. He said don't worry about that, go pack up your stuff we are leaving. Just like that! He took me to the courthouse and told them he was taking me home. I went to a home in Susanville while Bob got the new home ready. Don and JerryAnne Mamburg, you probably know them. We obviously never met, but I answered and accepted several of your collect calls, that was the rule, and went to Costco with Bob to get you care packages. Rolls of chew stands out in my mind. I saw your prison photos. I spent a lot of time with Ken because I only went to school for a few hours a day and he would pick me up and we would go to the health club until the other kids got out of school. Bob and Ken instilled a lot of life changing/saving values in me. Unfortunately, they were time released because I still got into trouble and eventually went to prison also, but that is when all of the things they taught me started taking effect on me. Ken especially. He would mess with me so much and I would get so pi**ed at him and he would just keep it going giving me work hours. I worked those off when Ken bought the house across the street. The back yard was full of about 2ft tall sticker bushes, I had to remove them.... Then Ken pulled me aside and told me why he messed with me so much. Because it was easy, I held up a red flag that said mess with me, and that if I didn't fix that I would have problems the rest of my life. He was right, I instantly fixed that and to this day I can see right through people who are just trying to get my riled up, and I laugh. Those two are great people, and feel like I can say this, but I KNOW Bob is looking down to you and proud as hell that in a sense, you have carried on his tradition of making a difference in peoples lives. BTW, the reason I left that home was me and another kid snuck out and took the car of a new counselor ( He had just moved to town so he was crashing on the couch until he got his own place) and I was messing around and hit a tree with it. I dropped the other guy off by the house to let him get settled in and then I showed up and told Bob what I did first then the counselor. The car insurance company is who pressed charges on me. That was early 93 and the last time I saw Bob. I did pop in 1 time and saw Ken at his 1st Lions Den in Lodi. Anyways, keep up the good work and thanks for sharing your experiences to help make a difference.

+ (Plus) - (minus) = (Equal)

If you haven’t listened to this podcast take some time to give it a listen. I’ve been a fan of Frank Shamrock since the 90s this interview provided some cool insights into not only Frank Shamrock the fighter but also Frank Shamrock the man and everything that brought him to this point. I especially love the concept of + - = life changing philosophy

I watched the Movie about Frank's life. It was very emotional and I was happy to see Ken and Frank make up in the end. I am also an MMA instructor and I was fortunate enough to meet Frank at an MMA event. It's a blurry photo but I am the one that Frank has his left arm around. He's a class act both during his fighting days and now with all the help he provides for others.
