I just think it's funny how everyone gives Ray sh*t about coming out of his backyard, then he finally antes up and ends up getting the shaft a few days before. More popcorn for Ray!!!

Jake, the heck with your career, this is a chance to armwrestle. Just Do It--------- Do It---------Do It. Sorry to be such a hard case, but I need to see this match up.

How much money did Jake lose to Ray?And how bad does Ray need a match? Now you're speaking my language. What you got in mind? Jake & Ray had never sent their deposits in, but he SHOULD forfeit 1/2 of what they were putting up. Especially to bail this late in the game. So Jake, you had a plane ticket for Friday, a friend expecting you for the weekend, a Supermatch for $500 and lot of people coming with plans to rip your arms off and you drop it all for a physical fitness test for a job? Could that not be changed to Thursday before you leave or be put off until Monday? I am a business owner and if I am interested in hiring someone and ask them to come by for an interview (or whatever) and they explain that they have had plans for the past 4 months to go out of state, I don't have a problem rescheduling. In fact, if I did have a problem with that, the guy shouldn't want to work for me anyway. I wouldn't be much of a boss man. Was it ........ A. Your left hand figured out who Daniel Worley was ? B. Your right hand heard about how fired up Ray J was? C. You couldn't make 171 D. Not placing Top 3 at a State Tournament would have killed you after winning a Nationals (Not a big deal really. I've done it lots of times!!! Or E. All of the above Either way. It STINKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Rick that Jake should hand over half of what he was supposed since he did cancel so close to the event. I dont agree with riding his ass about what is or isnt more important in his life. It is HIS life and he is an adult just like the rest of us. So if he feels that his personal life is more important right now, thats his choice and it should be respected.

I can understand paying half and that would be fair if Ray paid half up front but he didnt and he planned on coming to this anyways so im not sweating that at all. If this was a regular job than yeah im sure it could be moved around but its for the police department. Sorry if pulling ray isnt the highlight of my career. Not much to gain from it anyway except his money which was fine for me. My priorities are not armwrestling first and then everything else. I have nothing to prove to anyone. Ive already done that. Anyone who wants to pull me can find me. Something came up this time and thats life.
