ARM MELTER IS KING AND MORE?

[Grippler]

1. I JUST WANTED EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST EVENTS IN A VERY LONG TIME. CAN YOU SAY INTENSE? INTENSE!!

2. DAN KADLEC WILL BE A WORLD CHAMPION ONE DAY AND ALLEN FORD IS A GOD IN ARMWRESTLING.

3. FACT EARL IS A MONSTER.

4. POINT TO NOTE NICOLA GAZZETTO SCARES ME!! AHHHHHHAHHHAHAHHHHHHHHA!

JOE AND BECKY YOU GUYS ARE THE HEART "N" SOLE IN ONTARIO ARMWRESTLING YOUR PARTNERSHIP IS SOMETHING TO ADMIRE.




OK SO HERE IT IS......DEEP BREATH! I AM HAPPY THERE WAS SO MUCH EMOTION AND THE INTENSITY WAS OFF THE CHARTS. BUT WE ALL HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT WE ARE COMPETING AS MEN AND AS SPORTSMEN! I WANT ALL OF ONTARIO TO KNOW THAT I AM SORY FOR MY OUT BURST
TOWARDS THE REFFS AND ALLEN FORD DESERVES THE VICTORY. SO SHOULD MY DISRESPECT FOR OFFICIALS GO UNPUNISHED? WELL SWEARING AT THE TABLE AND SAYING THAT IT WAS A BUL---IT CALL SHOULD OF LANDED ME WITH AN UNSPORTSMANLIKE PENALTY. SO THIS IS WHAT I AM GOING TO DO.

1. ASK FOR FORGIVENESS FROM JOHN MILNE AND MR. EATON
2. DONATE $50 TO THE NEXT ARM MELTER MOST SPORTSMAN LIKE AWARD.
3 DONATE $50 DOLLARS TO A CHARITY TO BE DECIDED BY JOHN MILNE AND MR.EATON.

SO IN SUMMERY I LOVE THE ARM MELTER. WE ALL NEED TO RESPECT THE OFFICIALS ESPECIALLY ME. BUT I WAS NOT ALONE IN THIS DEPARTMENT. AND IT WAS VERY WELL OFFICIATED. GOD BLESS CANADA AND GOD BLESS ARMWRESTLING

GRIPPLER OUT!

We're cool bro. It happens.

To those who it happens more than once with you WILL end up with an unsportsmanlike conduct foul. I will no longer tolerate being swore at by the same people over and over again.

Complaining about calls is one thing, it's normal. Swearing and talking down to ref's is another. Just a heads up for those who think it's fine to do so..

100% agreed. My actions were wrong and I warrented that unsportsmanlike foul. It will not happen again.

[Mikel Gould]

An awsome event for sure. Many great match ups all day. Joe and Becky put on a great event with many incentives for everyone there.

What does an unsportsmanlike get you anyway??? Does it really mean anything. I am just asking cause I dont know.

Ian, that is cool. Not even what you are choosing to do, but the way you are owning it and making restitution.

Passion is one thing, disrespect is something totally different. The line is very wide. We all need to stay away from it. Questioning or disagreeing with a call is ok as referees are not always correct, but berating or demeaning a ref or opponent is never ok. It is not a fine line.

Great job done yesterday by Troy, John and Ryan!! The reffing was top notch all day!!

[Dave Campbell]

Just to clearify what an unsportsmanship call is. If I call you on that, you are out of the tournament. If you continue you are out of the building. Reffs are human we sometimes miss calls, so please be respectful of your reffs. It is a hard job!

[Allen The Hitman Ford]

I totaly agree with you Dave. I have nothing but respect for the reffs it's a hard job that they do and making there job harder is totaly unnessicary. We all need to be a bit more profesional when at the table.
Ian thank you for the complement and thank you for repenting your sins. It is a step in the right direction. You too Gobby good job!

Armmelter ROCKS!!!
