Ok so explain the bad politics that are the worst fears.. The bad politics that caused our country heads to leave our country team behind with no direction. Our team is there to armwrestle and have support of our leaders. So explain Joey please since you have the answers because you quoted you would have left as well. We have country heads who are there to direct us and support us in the meetings as well as on the floor of the competition. Do the competitors not have a right to know what is happening while they are in another country representing Canada?

Tamara: The reason that I'm not saying anymore about it is because, I would rather armwrestlers just concentrated on Armwrestling and not politics. Armwrestling still exists and WAF still exists.
The World Armwrestling Championships have changed, but the majority of people from Canada, that participate at the world level are new to the sport at the world level and the changes will go unnoticed by them.
The rest of the competitors that attended the worlds know that things have changed, because they were there and saw for themselves. What they didn't see, was all the meetings and BS that went on behind the scenes. They should do their best to stay away from the politics because it will consume them and distract them from their goal, and that is to be the best in the world.

Is it up to you Joey to decide what the arm wrestlers should or shouldn't be exposed to? Stop assuming the role of father figure, you barely have a grip on ethics in general.

I have to agree with Chris, I have no idea what happened in Poland, but when our reps leave before the tournament starts I think they should explain to the team what the f. is going on, Good or bad, People who are new to this need to have some info. imho.

The last time this happened we ended up with two WAF's... I think we deserve to know what is going on.

I'm hoping Ryan did. However there are still inquiries on the Ontario board that have yet to be addressed, and it's been over a month. The pattern doesn't look promising.
