Spirits are high, friendships are rekindled, and people are ready to throw far! Ryan looks and feels good. Brock and Sean look destined to have an epic battle. Gregor is out due to a bulging disc. Also out is Bruce Robb who had to fly home for a family emergency(kids). So quit whining about CC and realize there are things more important things than him. Say a prayer for good weather, long throws, and no injuries! __________________ Let'em Fly, Brother!-The Polish Prince http://www.newenglandstrength.com/ Back to Top   The Jayster Senior Member Joined: 29/10/04 Location: United States Online Status: Offline Posts: 659 Posted: 02/5/08 at 5:23pm | IP 68.224.244.71 good luck to all, have an injury free day and THROW FAR!!! __________________ keep aaron thurman in your prayers Back to Top   Jason J Groupie Joined: 18/2/07 Location: Canada Online Status: Offline Posts: 56 Posted: 02/5/08 at 6:01pm | IP 204.83.171.145 Thanks for the update.  With those two out, the complextion of the games is a lot different.  Now throwing 50' even in the stone should bump a guy up to 9th place instead of 11th. Have a great weekend guys!  Can't wait to hear all about it!

Ryan and Pat

Why are there sheaf standards up at this circus?

 

 

 

At the risk of sounding like a woman...

Ryan's goatee is pretty awesome.

In defense of the people putting up the standards, the
old ones were damaged, new poles were ordered on Monday,
and picked up Wednesday. And since they don't come
rigged for the sheaf, I'm sure some work had to be done.

No, there won't be a sheaf toss in the world
championships. The open amateur and masters' classes
will be tossing the sheaf.

I'll try to get some updates as well. I happen to be really good friends with the scorekeeper :)

I'll be in and out today but I'll give her a call after my 20 mile run and see what she can give me.
