Sorry I won't be there. Would love to pull Bobby again if I was in shape and ready to go. The last time we pulled was AAA Nationals a few years ago. Anyone remember the results! No disrepect to Bobby, as I love him like a brother and would hate to get him upset!  I just think I enjoy armwrestling as much as he does.  Yes, it was very light last year. ;D Don't remember a single match! Although Pete Wabuda was willing to armwrestle right handed in order to give me a chance to get to the table. Guess you can only pull the people that show up! |

Hi Steve,
How are you doing? We miss having you around. Did they ever find out what the problem is? Hoping to see you soon, Denise

Hi Denise,
Still not sure why I still have pain and weakness, other than I waited so long to have the surgery. Doc said I had a lot of nerve damage because the nerve was compressed so long and I waited until the arm stopped working before I went in for help. He said the nerve grows back at about 1mm per day in the best case senerio, and some nerve may never rebuild. So measure from my neck to my finger tips ( path of the nerve) and I have a long time to wait for things to get better.
Will I see you at Sol's tournament?

Hi Steve,
Just take care of yourself and do what the doctors tell you. We look forward to your return to the sport.
I was asked, and had planned to work the Super Star Showdown my my Goddaughter's baptism is the 30th in Virginia. There was no other date open at the church so...
I hope that someone will take pictures and do a story for ArmSport as the tournament is one of the most exciting this year and all my subscribers will want to hear about it.
Please keep in touch and tell you famil Hi!
Denise

Tim Bresnan will be pulling the open and the masters. He felt amazing in the straps last night and his wrist is getting stronger by the second. He should be the man to beat.  |

I am cutting weight for the 154 masters also. Dan Stroud from Indiana will be there also in the 154. Dan is pulling great! He better not be taken lightly. We are also looking forward to defending our Masters Team title.
