| Great job to everyone, but you will not run across a finer athlete when it comes to James. Old guys rule! Kids, watch out, because we're coming to get you. It's like "Night of the Living Dead." |

re: Barkauskas winning 50plus, setting records.. I hate to say it, but I told you so quite some time ago. When Zeus is on, the thunder rolls. It will be a cold day in Hades before most of us fifties match his marks (and I haven't even seen em yet!) Assume the fires in Napa-Sonoma harshed Kevin Youngberg's glow some. Please advise. ps Steve Conway---I hope the trophies shipped in on time. UPS assured me they would be there. |

Since last year’s winner wasn’t there… there were 12 further than him at this year's comp… Just kidding – the comment prior to the games was based on what people were allegedly throwing – in the heavy hammer, many people predicted higher throws – well in the high teen’s. However, as with many two-day comp’s and the level of competition present, the marks were well off that, with only Ryan busting out a big toss over 118. Most people probably would have predicted higher throws in nearly all the events – especially the 28 and 56 wfd given tosses earlier in the year well over 45 and 85 for four of the athletes – oh well, maybe next year.

Looks like it was a phenomenal competition. I owe you a burrito Ryan. Half a point separates the two Dave B's  . Perhaps a sumo challenge is in order to settle that one. Mike Pocohontasakowski pulls it out with the last throw in the last event of the competition. That's excitement.------------- Cheers, Carlos "Live free or die" |
