I think Chad an Alex will be up there at the top lefty in the 198's righty I think Chad will win. Hard to say lefty though cause it gets mixed up a little. 165's I think Matt will take right an left.

I have a tremendous opportunity on Saturday. To be the best, you gotta beat the best, and reality is there ain't noone..........on da Earfth that ain't gonna say TBagent isn't the best left handed armwrestler in the World right now. However, TBagent better hope whats been happening to my recent opponents, doesn't happen 3-4 times Saturday night. Hope, hope to God that don't happen!  Michael Todd, I love ya dawg, you should have made sure you hit that weight limit. I've always admired your amazing power and endurance, we should make for an exciting matchup at some point during this tournament. As for Nick Zinna, he is without a doubt one of the coolest dudes in this sport. But he knows I owe him one(06 Nationals)Saturday along with Don Fritsche who neglegently tore my hamstring at the Harley Pull "leg wrestling".  This man is a crafty cheat and will do anything to win. A warning to innocent bystanders, stay away from this game it is extremely dangerous if you're not warmed up. I would expect my friend John Buxton to be in the mix as well, he is right up there on the list of most improved armwrestlers in 08. Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend. |

That's not true. There are people who would say that Denis Cyplenkov is the best. Not trying to steer this thread off-topic, but as long as at least one person is saying Cyplenkov is the best lefty, that statement wouldn't be true. But I'm really looking forward to seeing you pull Michael Todd (as you can see in my predictions, I put you above him! but it was a hard call). |

I think Ryan was taking a jab at Travis' dialog with Harold Owens at the 2004 Unified Nats. Good Luck Ryan I hope to do awesome at ROTN. What're everyone else's predictions? C'mon I know you have some thoughts.

Jess, your predictions are pretty accurate in my opinion, except the 198's. I think we could all predict who we think will win and only a very very small percentage will get it right. With Gary's format this will test even the seasoned veteran. I wish I could make it but I have Broncos tickets on Sunday and I need to train a lot more to think I can hang with that list!!!!! 2009 ROTN different story for me!!! |

The 98's are unpredictable imo. The brackets will make all the difference in the world in that class.

The 198's is going to be the funnest class to watch in my opinion because there are so many top caliber pullers. Not saying the other weight classes don't have them but there are alot of evenly matched people pulling in the 198's that will make for some Grueling matches.

I think I might be able to upset a few people, especially in the left. Now with that said, I'll prolly go 2 and out lol. |
