What "good" wins do you have recently? I'm trying to help Johnny keep these at least somewhat relevant so, any input is appreciated.

Here's some LH observations for ya....
1. Chad Silvers
2. Jerry Avants
3. DJ Savoy - inactive
4. Shane Alger
5. Scot Hohrath
6. Chad Lowder - true 87 guy prob somewhere around 10th in 98's
7. David Istre - 76?
8. Bryce Meaux - beast
9. James Retarides - left get's better everyday
10. Chris Heath - 220's and should be ranked top 10 there
11. Mark Taggart - needs to be way higher (like top 3)
12. Matt Swann -
13. Ryan Comardelle - 76
14. Alex Jigalko - status? Healthy @ 98 he'd be top 3 or 4
****Charles Fisk has been 98 all year and should be top 10
****Daniel Story is def top 10 just above Fisk
****I should be somewhere just below these 2 and just above Lowder....
Is Worley 76 or 98 now? Either class, he's top 3 just below Matt and/or Chad.

I have beat Shane alger lefty though I know I probly don't stand a chance with him.
I don't remember Bryce Meaux ever beating me in a competition I could be wrong. I just don't recall it.
But then again we may have never competed at 198

There you go. The ball is in JE's court. You got any idea as to where you might fall on the list?

Thanks Clint, I never read any of these pages until now. I find it funny. It is interesting that the Castos have some sort of issue with me. Don't know why that is...I think it has to do with befriending an old friend of theirs and helping him train for armwrestling....how do I live with myself  I wonder what Andrew Casto weighs right now. I am 196 and have been pulling actively. I won a few tough matches against good pullers at Alabama and then went 1 and 2 with Tim Mcpherson...lost the last one on fouls...kind of like I did with Andrew. But you wouldn't catch me bragging about it if I won.  Another issue I have with these rankings is (no offense Johnny) but people that pull both 198 and 220 should probably be ranked in both if they have wins on the guys that are ranked. not sure what that meant James. We don't mind Kent training with you at all. we are glad to see he has found an armwrestling family and stayed with the sport. Just wondering what you are refering to. Oh by the way Andrew is right at 210 and is starting back to training. I am very sorry you feel offended by something we have said. |

No your not sorry, judging by what I have heard has been said in phone calls by both you and Andrew as well as your bragging on here. And this is why I find your private message funny. You seem to have no problem slandering me when I am not there. Funny thing (and Buck will tell you) that I was nothing but complimentary of Andrew following our match. He showed a lot of class (at that time) in victory. Seems to be a far cry from when Buck started training here and I was nothing but complimentary (from what I knew) of your group. I found out you had family in Statesville and offered to open my home to you. But I learned a while back not to invite anyone to dinner that might piss in your soup.
Most people that know me, know I am loyal to a fault. However, I am also a man of principle and do not talk smack to or about an opponent unless provoked. In my 13 years in this sport, I have made a lot of friends and have spent the better part of my time helping new armwrestlers more than developing myself. I have had issues with some people due to some strong beliefs but even they will tell you that if I had something to say about them, it wasn't to someone else.

James I train with the castos. not all the time but i have never heard them say anything but good things about you. I dont know anything that goes on away from me but I just know what is said when im there. I dont understand why you asked how much Andrew weighs now? I only matters how much he weighed when he pulled you. Maybe you guys need to do A challenge match? And I can name a few more on that list that I would not be surprised if andrew beat them in A challenge match also.

Agreed, Neil, Andrew is a heck of a puller. I was just told by a trusted friend that they ran their mouth about me. I think you would respond the same way as I did if people you never defamed started making remarks about you.

please refer me to what I have bragged about on here and if you may have taken something out of text Im sorry, but I think you are taking something so very wrong. And as for talking on the phone the only one we have ever talked to is Kent and never have I said anything bad.

My point is if I beat someone on fouls I wouldn't be so quick to point it out on thread full of unofficial rankings. I wouldn't point it out at all, actually. You say you never said anything bad, I heard otherwise. I haven't known Buck to be untruthful. I guess that's the summation of this argument. Whatever, I'm done with it.
