Same question as on the other poll:
Right: Travis, unless a heavier Matt shows up
Left: Travis

No Barbosa in the heavies and no Gelashvilli in the 198.
A real shame.
Also, I can think of several Canadian pullers that would have made this class very interesting.

I understand that, but no has clarified as to why it is open to just U.S. citizens. Barbosa and Giorgi live under 2 hours from the tournament, and have for several years. They have a good command over the English language (if interview purposes are a concern) and they both could throw quite a money wrench into the results. I don't have to tell you any of this Christian as I know you train with both of them. However I think you will also agree that the rule is somewhat baseless and takes a few bubbles from the soda if you know what I mean.

Georgi has not proven himself and doesn't deserve to be in the mix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Barbosa on the other hand does deserve to be invited and it is a shame that he will not be there.......
But for some reason I've been sleeping very well since the list came out!!!!!!!
I will win easy both classes!!!!!!!!!!!

Well he may not have the victories Travis, but he does have the arms. He is a very good friend of your buddy Mike Selearis and they train together often. I would say Mike would acknowledge that Giorgi definately has the goods to pull in this event, especially left handed. I would think that any of the pullers in this event that have gripped up with Giorgi's left would say the same.

James...... I think Giorgi does have to prove himself in a field of top pullers in an event, not just in practice. Tell him to come to Chehalis. we can put him in...That is the only way the world will really see what someone is capable of, and could lead to bigger and better things!

He won't go to Chehalis. He's very tight with his money and usually doesn't like to travel. He just likes to sit home and beat up on Mike Selearis and Chris Myers all the time.
As far as Marcio not being included in the Heavyweights, I think it sucks for Marcio but is good for the other guys that were picked. Marcio could and would have made everyone's day alot tougher, if he was invited.
