Craig since we have been having a discussion of Significant dates in Fencing, the 1924 Olympics came up. I believe the information on Van Zo Post, Albertson should be corrected. I believe at least some of the 1904 should be 1924, especially the medals.
I don't know: I think Ed Richards looks (and more importantly, carries himself) like an old movie actor. He may forget the score sometimes, but the guy has class.
Class indeed. He has charm and charisma. What he sometimes don't have is the correct score. Yeah, that's a problem. Great to sit and chat with, but I wouldn't want him refereeing my bouts at critical moments. And especially in epee, when there's a lot of dead time between touches.
You can't trust even the U.S. Olympic Organization. The IOC has Van Zo Post winning the Single Stick competiton for the Cubans and our own USOC has him winning the Gold 20 years earlier than he did.
