| I would post here ... Except that it is about foil only. And yet I don't want to start my own thread. |

| I don't think either Yann nor Cedric are allowed to fence in the individuals since they are not US citizens nor permanent residents (unless they've recently made some change).

Where's Jaime Douraghy? Where's Gidaya? Where's some of the other SoCal fencers? David Drake...top 16 at best.

| Jerry DeRaad?!? I'd expect Johnston to finish higher than Jer'.
I'll pick MacDougall as the suprise winner here in MF. He's due for his A, anyway.
Rachel Becker will unfortunately finish 9th to make the event yet again a B-rated tournament. Jennings will win, but can't re-earn her A. HFC for the nth time in WFTeam.
Cooper Gegan for the gold in ME. GGFC for the team.
Mummery, Marsh, Hall for WE. Marsh-led No Fear for the WETeam.
Barron Nydam over Zach Jones for the gold in MS. Spartak...once again....
Christie Griffith over Sandra D'Asaro for the gold in WS. If Sackamenna makes a team, I'll take them. Otherwise, LAIFC.
Looks like a very small crowd this year. Fares to Las Vegas and the hotel room prices are not enticing people to go, apparently. Or people are deciding to sign up late (which would be financially suicidal).

| Are PCCs in Vegas this year again?
Might make for some interesting betting action.

| I predict: men's epee gold medal bout between LAIFC and GGFC. Should be exciting. |

| DiNapoli will be quietly sleeping off his previous night's entertainment. (Hope Rick doesn't read this..  ).
I'd put Urbain in there instead.
