Burns I would pull best out of 5 loser has to retire but from what I hear their might be a legand in the house and pulling him means more to me then ending your career.Team Maine has taken training to the next level we plan on defending it against are fellow flat landers.Their are at least 4 elite 65 pullers in mass 5 if my long lost brother decides to get lean but I have a plan for him.I'm thinking about sending him piazza hut every night so he stays in the 85 that left arm of his is insane.

Sounds great Chris, I'll see you on Friday and be sure you and all the other guys from MA wear your 2013 Maine State Champion hoodies so everyone knows who the defending champions are...I love you buddy, but I'm hoping all those state champion hoodies stay in Maine this year!!!!

Team Gundrum Arms will be in attendance... personally, I can't wait to see where I stack up against some of the best heavies in the Northeast. Been training hard and making great gains.. i'm ready...
All you light pullers get ready, Ray Calhoun continues to impress me with how quickly he makes gains on the table
Grip N Rip, see you guys there

There are quite a few hotels right in the area because Thatchers is right next to both the Maine Mall and the Portland airport--I just did a quick search and for $85 you can stay at the Hampton Inn Portland-Airport which is probably less then a 5 minute drive to Thatchers. For $100 you can stay at Courtyard by Marriott Portland-Airport...there are tons more, that are cheaper then the two I listed, but these seem to be the nicer places...let me know if I can help any further!!
