First off, Guy Lasorsa....pull "A" tournament first and actually beat "SOMEONE" before you come on here a question my opinions!!! Second, Kurt, it is just my opinion!!! Everyone is entitled to their own, you made yours, I made mine, and Guy Lasorsa is just a moron. Lets just wait and see what happens!!! Third, Thanks alot Travis for making this match happen, and a big THANK YOU for having it close by so that all of us Northeatserners could come and watch. Oh wait, you said it was going to be in West Virginia, how convenient for you that is, what about all of us? Jerk!!! Maybe you are having it down there so Andrew Fournier could actually get to meet Rob Bigwood and they could become the best of friends!!! Who knew that Travis was actually concerned with someone elses wants and needs besides his own!!!  |

I will not be driving 13 hours to pull someone that I could pull in 2 1/2 hours.... BIGWOOD if you want to pull me Im in Maine there has been more then enough tournments around for you to pull me, but your too busy training I guess? If you want to pull me so bad you will have to drive to do it... and pete I don't think I could train anymore then I am now seeing how I was 320 in December of last year and now im 265 hell you wouldn't even enter the tournment a couple weeks ago to feel what I have so don't even start to tell me I need to train... O and I don't have a $1000 Dollars to bet thanks anyways Travis but I don't bet with other peoples money.... if you want to pull bigwood come to maine to kurts this weekend everyone else is im sure you could car pool with someone if not then o well we will just have to wait Im not going anywhere.... EGuevin

WOW, once again my fellow armwrestlers prove to me that maybe they don't want to be "PROFESSIONAL" at all... In fact is there must be some unwritten rule that forbids armwrestlers to pull for something more then Gas Money, and a trophy!!!!!!!!!!!
I will continue to pursue "PULLERS" to put their money up and draw some public fanfare, and hype around the MATCHES!!!!!!!
I am sorry that Pete feels the way he does, I wish he or someone up NORTH would put on an event like
“R. Bigwood – Eric Q"…. They could be on the UNDERCARD for ME – Barbosa or Girdner or Randal or Brzenk!!!! What do you say PETE, can you handle this EVENT for me up NORTH…. It should only take a couple Thousand dollars and a week planning…. Surely you can get your LOCAL people to sponsor you for an event of this Magnitude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I spoke to Eric a few weeks ago and he excepted the invite to pull Bigwood in late JANUARY, since then situations have arrived and he can know longer make it…. So Bigwood needs a “ARMFIGHT” is there anyone that would like to pull HIM on JAN, 29 in WV…. By the way MIKE TODD, and TRAVIS BAGENT would like to pull as well and are ready to negotiate… Best 3 out of 5 ENTRY FEE - $1000.00 winner take all!!!!!!!!!!!!

Travis, with all due respect, your supermatches are more like gambling than professional exhibitions. While I applaud your efforts and think they are great for the sport. (If some of you haven't attended one of his supermatches they are armwrestling at its best.) But in a professional sport entry fees do not make up the purse. I had commented to a few guys up here that I wouldn't enter a supermatch for that much of my own $ because of my propensity to elbow foul. So I can understand Eric not wanting to put up the cash. Nonetheless, I wouldn't mind pulling if someone else put up the $, which is an option for Eric, if he can seek out sponsorship. Seeing what happened to Michael Todd in that last match against Tom Nelson, I couldn't fathom losing that much of my own money on such a circumstance. I think there are a lot of people up north that are jealous of Eric and I think he knows that. It is hard to take though since Eric is such a nice guy (very funny, loves to fly kites and the such) . Eric is the best armwrestler in New England and I think he knows there are a lot of people aiming at him. That can be tough to take, especially since I know he considers most of us friends. And we are. Rob is a great guy too, another friend of mine with all of the potential in the world, and I think people are starting a rivalry around these two guys that have only met each other but 2 or 3 times. With that being said, if you would like Pete to help you put on this exhibition, I will give him assistance as long as the other participants still want to be included in the event. Travis, keep doing what you are doing, because I think you are headed down the right path. Your organization is gaining momentum and you have the energy and ability to keep moving it forward. People are going to criticize, take it constructively and move on. |

Note: So that first line isn't taken out of context, I am not saying the participants aren't of a professional caliber. They are the best of the best in this country. |
