You know it seems that all are looking to move up and fill spots, but everyone is down playing themselves and are willing to take or settle for a second or a third place spot. Maybe have a round robin but exclude certain ones from it. I could care less about the rankings if someone wants my spot, take it i don't care. If someone wants a spot why not shoot for first place, train hard ,make it happen. Have a real goal Junior I look up to you and you are a real goal for me to shoot for you have beat me the last two times we have pulled you are the reason I train as hard as I do bro.!!! COMING FOR YOU IF I CAN MAKE IT THAT FAR IN THE TOURNAMENT!!! HERE I COME!! LOL

Maybe have a round robin but exclude certain ones from it. I could care less about the rankings if someone wants my spot, take it i don't care. If someone wants a spot why not shoot for first place, train hard ,make it happen. Have a real goal Just a few thoughts: - Jr's post shows why he is a true Champion. There is no bravado, one umanship (sp) or behaving like an internet cowboy. Great armwrestler and a great guy. - I do believe that Craig and Chad standout in this class. However, as Anderson Silva proved: On any given day... - Tommy walking around at 160 is a scary thought for anyone 154. (yes, trying to get you to drop down) - Aaron is a beast inside and can ruin anyones day in a hurry. It will be great seeing him back on the table. - Michael P is a very talented puller. His work ethic, knowledge of the sport and desire to win will push him to the top of his class. I do not believe his frame will allow him to stay in this class much longer. - Bryan R, in my opinion is stronger than all but 2 in that class. It may not be fair to say as I do not know them all, but I have pulled many good/great armwrestlers. Once he gets a few more tournaments under his belt, he will be top 3 - no doubt. Would love to see a tournament where A pulls B best of X and then C pulls D best of X and the winners face eachother. Looking forward to getting back on the table and seeing some old friends.

Thanks Bill. I heard that you went under the knife recently and are going to be pulling again soon. When will we start seeing you in practice? Your name will be back in the top tier of these rankings once you start competing again.

I see Craig and Simon are ranked in a heavier class in "in the hook" rankings. Does this change for SEC rankings?

I don't know John. These regional rankings are so different from what's on In the Hook. According to In the Hook, I'm ranked higher in the country than I am in my own region. No love in the SEC! That is probably because we Northern VA guys tend to pull the Northeast guys (i.e. the Klembas, Snooks, and Talbotts of the world) a lot more than we pull the Southeast guys. Rankings in general are hard to do, so I give big props to anyone that tries.

Instead of who beat who, you almost have to get everyone's honest opinion. Then that still wouldnt be too accurate. You should definitely be ranked in SEC though

Thanks man. I agree it can't just be who beat who, but then it also becomes somewhat subjective, and everyone will have a varying opinion. I think the trick will be going with the popular opinion, but then again we're all a bunch of idiots, so maybe that's a bad idea too!
