Loved listening to the show Craig. You did a great job hosting with a variety of guests that were always entertaining and informative. You are one of the hardest working, most passionate arm wrestlers in the sport and it has been fun to watch your progression from afar. Keep training man!

I used to check this board daily for tournament updates as well as the awesome debates/arguments people used to have. I'd love to see some of the more frequent posters back in action like RVJ, James Retarides and the bishops.

Found a table and team to practice with earlier on. Also, I would have started in my current weight class (176lbs) rather than the 242's where I soon realized 1) my hand is way too small for that class and 2) this sport humbles you quickly.

Overall a great event by all pullers. What was your favorite match up? What match ups you would like to see now? The Voevoda vs Bresnan match up was my favorite for sure. Tim looked great in every position and very strong. Thoughts?!

I saw on Facebook recently on the PAL page that Voevoda has decided to make his comeback in Vegas in October. The article posted stated preliminary neogioations are under way for his first match against Tim Bresnan. I hope this match up becomes set in stone because it would be a great battle in my opinion. I'd love to see Tim win this and once again show why he is considered one of the best in the world. What are your predictions on this match up?

Who the heck is Veto Swain??? Beat Logan?!?! I think he is a local guy from that area of Tennessee, I overheard someone say he was won the 76 right hand class multiple years in a row. They had some deep hook wars.

Hope your wrist comes back at 100% man, always fun watching you compete on the big stage. I hear ya, I've been in this sport three years now and luckily only have had a slight taste of the politics involved that make the AW world go round and round.

From the Ottawa High Hookers: Eric Roussin 195 Jeff Slater 226+ Devon Larratt 225 Jodi Larratt Womens (I think 143 not sure exactly weight class) Others I know of: Shea Dickie 165 Crazy Geroge 165 Janek Kwias 225 Matt Mask 225 I'm not sure how the regions are working for Canada. I think Devon is in south and Eric is in West but I'm not positive. I've heard Ryan Espey (226+) will compete but again, I'm not sure. You'd have to get it from him. John will you be competing or announcing? From what I read on the WAL website, they pretty much split canada between the two regions from what I can tell. I'm guessing because of the difference of number of entry's? I was expecting 30-45 per class but either way, one of the best tournaments ever when it comes down to talent in each class.

With the WAL Las Vegas regional tournament a week away, I was just curious who all was making the trip. I'll be going and pulling the left handed 195lbs southern region.

I'm not sure who Matt is? The only person I remembered meeting that I didn't know before the tournament was Roger Nowatzke. He looked strong and did very well for not pulling for a good amount of time. Super nice guy as well.

You would have to ask Jeremy about who was in his class in KC because I'm not 100% sure but I know jim coyle was second in that class. I totally forgot about Greg beating Duckworth in Tennessee. Makes 100% sense now that I know that. I will have to tell Shaun to get out to more tournaments! You are doing a great job with a thankless job josh.
