first off i would like to apologize to each and every person that has felt direspected from me...nothing i said jokinly on the board was meant seriously by me....if you all felt disrespected or insulted..i apologize for that...i made that video of myself last night to show everyone that im a whack job on and off the board...but i have a smile on my face and its just in fun...I made a post a few days ago that i had talked to John Brzenk on the phone...i lied about that and im sorry...but 2 days after that false post I REALLY didi talk to John Brzenk on the phone...I apologized to him in great detail...i told him it was all for shock value...i also added that if i had attacked Tom Nelson Or Frank Hirst..no one would respond....John agreed with me on that point...I also Know that John wasnt happy with the comments that i had made towards him even though it was all for fun...it was wrongg...but it is what it is now...and there is nothing i can do but apologize and tone down my behavior...it was wrong of me to use An armwrestling Legend to satisfy my immature behavior...i knew what i was doing..and i knew that it would cause a HUGE stir....i cant change who i am...im always gonna be a smart ass with something sarcastic to say...what i can do is tone things down and add something to this board in a positive way...im not saying i wont ever stir things up again..but if i do it wont be anywhere near as bad as i have stirred the pot before....I am holding true to my word...come Tuesday night if the votes are in favor of me leaving the board i will delete my account and move on in a positive way....i will still train hard and i will make every tournament that i can....So to all who i offended...I apologize to you all...Thank You..Stop Sign

Good evening Friends ,

When i read in Germany (after my journey in the U.S) that JOHN BRZENK is deleting his Board-account caused by your disrespecting behavior. First i could not really believe it. I checked the Board and searched... and searched but could not find that mentioned disrespectful post that could caused his decision (now i am sure you delete it afterwards) i was irritated & curios to read it by myself but it does´nt really matters after i heard Bob Brown saying that it was the main reason for John.

One of the reasons that i am/was reading this Board (sometimes nonstop from 2004), is/was that most of all the great Champions, (JOHN BRZENK included) had an account here and there was a big opportunity to learn from all of their posts.I am/was always a very auto-didactic person but wanted to minimize the risks of trial & error and this board and some other source was all i had back then and i am very thankful because others don´t even had that.

To all the Champs i am a Nobody but One of the 1000 armwrestling-students worldwide that learned alot from the icon himself JOHN BRZENK. (met him very short twice in person 2004 and 2006).

And he always will be of course one of my greates teachers when i am talking about armwrestling understanding although i learn/ed nonstop from so many other Champions too and still do

OF COURSE I WANT ONE OF MY GREATEST TEACHERs BACK.
But i learned in life, that we can not answer one mistake with just another mistake.

I think you apologized enough and showed all of us in the last days that you want to stay on this Armwrestling-Board.

Bill cox & You wanted everybody to vote on this.

Thats why i am here now and Let me tell you that, in my view nobody needs that much of "SHOCK VALUE" or "NASTY STREET TRASH" on a Athletes Massage-Board to being respected or looking tough..tough and real cool is something totally different to me.

About what happens with JOHN BRZENK or others only JOHN BRZENK and others has to forgive you if he/they likes to...nobody else.

My heart is/was always full with forgiveness but i am the wrong one to ask here.

I can only Vote for you to stay ...thats all i can do right here.

Stop Sign...wish you the best times coming from now on and alot of fun with "our" beloved ARMWRESTLING.

A.K

It's all OVER!!!!! It's 10:45!!! The poll is closed.

Get off the board B I T C H!!!!!

You had two shots and you blew them both. Maybe now the board can go back to normal and we will no longer have to endure the pointless rants of a certified fun.

Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, GOODBYE!!!!!!!!

[Tim Lewis]

I must say that I can't believe this poll is exactly tied at 93-93.

Secondly, this thread has received over 7000 views, more than any legitimate topic on this forum.

Are you guys freaking serious, this is a message board for crying out loud. If you are really offended by what people have to say on the internet, you need to grow up. We are all adults here or at least some of us in the last year or two of high school.

The moderators tried to wash their hands of this and let the people decide.

You know what the judges did in the dodgeball tournament when they had a tie.

What Would Chuck Norris Do?

[Gary Roberts]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO way. In a Tie...you gotta STAY> given the remarkable comeback...in what seemed like was going to be a Land Slide Sheeeeeee-lacking....On the EVE...OF...a S-U-R-G-E of a lifetime to end in a ...drum roll...TIE!!!! Come on. I say Mac learned a valuable lesson here. He can still be funny without pissing 'all off. I say lets give 'em a chance. Something great can come of this.

I don't know of all the evils done by Mac... never got a chance to read the 'no goto Worlds' so not sure what C>A>J>B were done (crimes against John Brzenk) But we can bounce back from this. I think John should come back tho... unless the board was a distraction from training...then it might be a good idea. Just my thoughts.

Like I posted earlier, Mac is like a big child that knows when he is being bad ...just lacks the control and a good spanking wakes him up... or he likes the spanking.. not sure which...

but inside... good heart... and loves the sport. (I can relate StopSign!)

P Y O A SAYS S O S S

and make no mistake Mac counts for atleast 50% of those views.

[Tero Lampikari]

A tie. What does this mean?

Engin, how do we interpret the poll now?
Is the poll legitimate? Does it represent the majority or not? How many votes can we change? Do we roll the dice or what? ;D

That was fun! Engin you made me laugh and learn.

Mac, things worked out

[Bill Cox]

The poll ended in a tie. Mac asked for the poll and said if it said leave he would, since it ended in a tie Mac is in limbo. It doesn't say go but it doesn't say to stay either. So for now Mac stays but the warning level will remain and he will be on probation to prove himself. If he had of acted the way he did the last week then we would not be in this situation. So we will see if he can continue to act according or if he goes back to his old ways. This was strike two so no more polls or warnings will be used. I truly hope Mac that you don't abuse the trust that a lot of pullers have in you.

i may be wrong about my opinion of voting.. i just always hated lynch campaigns!!!

Agreed. Except I don't see a lynch campaign here. Lynched don't start lynch campaigns. This was something else. And it was well played.

[Pete & Tim]

IT DIDN'T END IN A TIE!!! IT WAS 92-93 HE LEAVES AT 10:45 WHICH HE SAID WAS THE CUT OFF!!!! HE HAS TO LEAVE!!!! JUST CAUSE BILL COX WASN'T WATCHING THE BOARD AT THAT EXACT TIME DOESN'T MEAN HE GETS TO STAY!!!!
