I agree that James did an outstanding job! HE also came out to the west coast with some personal issues going on at home at the same time. I have a tremendous amount of respect for James. Honestly, I do believe Neil is the best in the business at his skill and that is probably why he is announcing. Im sure its nothing personal just a matter of business.

This was touched on a little when Robert announced Neil as the announcer for UAL II, and James was a little offended. I hate to see the two men pitted against each other(for lack of better words) when both men do their part to help the sport and are both very good announcers. I think James is every bit as good as Neil, I don't know maybe the English accent holds sway  |

NO DISRESPECT TO ANYONE BUT ITS ALL ABOUT POPULARITY....100X MORE PEOPLE KNOW NEIL AROUND THE WORLD THAN JAMES....James may be the best promoter ever, but we are trying to attract attention to the sport....more people know neil. Thats all, dont beat a dead horse Mac like u usually do.

HA, HA, I am the subject of a Mac Telle thread, a Stop Sign special to be immortalized like "Why you no go to worlds," and "Steroids: do you love them or hate them?" Awesome to be in the presence of royalty Mac and please tread lightly on my friend Frank Hirst this weekend. I appreciate the sentiment fellas but England trumps New England I am afraid. Honestly, I think Neil does a great job and personally believe he is the promoter that has done most for the sport. Not sure he is known by 100 times as many people (but he is a rather well-traveled and dashing fella for sure...and he probably has the edge on me in his number of facebook friends). Dan, if you could get me his contact list I would appreciate it because you seem to know all about the connections (or lack thereof) I have made over the past 13 years in this sport. And how did you know I wasn't voted "most popular" in my high school yearbook? Is it the teeth? I am beginning to think that all you have to do to know everything in this sport is to move to Florida and stay there. <----some will get this. Thanks Mac, and good luck this weekend. PS- I like Neil and Bill Collins and wish them well. They are both lifers in this sport. |

Ha, and one vote there suggesting I should not announce. I wonder if that was from the same lone wolf that voted that Shawn Merriman was bad for the sport. |

James, I know you are a good man. Im gonna let you settle down a bit so u can realize I was just making a point. For real, Im so sick of grown up people trying to start problems, what the hell did I do. I didnt know ur teeth were so damn ugly, sorry about that bud. The last 3 sentences were not to be taken to heart(I have to explain everything), were just trying to have fun. I really never mean any harm, James lighten up man. I believe thats why this sport dosent grow, some cant brush it off. I was almost done, but for your little joke on the end, sorry Im in college and I have only been pulling for one year. that means Im BROKE AS HELL TRYING TO GET AN EDUCATION, and still they have me ranked 6th in the SE us where ur ranked. If you wanna sponsor me or anything like that let me know.

Grown-ups starting trouble? Come on Dan you are reading way too much into what I wrote. I was having a little fun, that's all. Besides, the Florida reference was more of Todd King joke (go back and read the disclaimer). And yes my teeth are ugly but I can't bring myself to be the older guy with braces especially around my clients.

And what are you doing up so late? I have insomnia and a thesis to write. What's your excuse. Hey MAC thanks again for the support brother. I will have to make it out that way for a tournament when things settle down around here.

James post ur problems in the off topic forum. 2 posts, your definatly in defense mode, so were gonna need some heavy ammo. I bet u were talking about TK(who i go train with occasionally). why dont u shut ur mouth about what you dont know boy? I have respect for them, and they respect me. Im gonna work on that contact list, it shouldnt be too hard. Oh i get the Tk joke now, he didnt remember you, yikes!!!! hes 2 states away lmao, maybe 200Xs more people know neil. NOW LOOK NO OFFENSE, YOU HATED ON ME SO JUST BITE THE BULLET AND JOKE BACK. BTW DONT BS ANYONE SAYING YOU WERE HAVING A LITTLE FUN, THATS SO U DONT LOOK BAD.
