I'm debating if luring a top coach to Austin would raise the level of fencing enough to offset the increased traffic...

Do you really need to see the cuts and bruises???

Well, you perverts might, but I suspect the good citizens of Portland can be spared the guts and gore. Take your time. Read carefully.

I'm curious too, lets be honest often the cuts and bruises are the most interesting part, and the denizens of this board are not the Portland community

If you can't find the cuts and bruises here, you haven't been reading all the threads carefully.

Perhaps, just perhaps, Ms. Ward's family didn't actually move just for a better fencing club. Perhaps, (again) just perhaps, there were actually something like 3 saber fencers at the club including the Ward children and another club that they could have been pretty successful at not so far away given the younger Ward's innate talents and abilities. Or perhaps, really seriously just taking a stab in the dark this time, it doesn't matter all that much. I now dangle to the left....my tassle. Get your minds out of the gutter.

There is also the fact that this club is Zagunis territory and other fencers here are second class citizens. They don't tell you that when you come to the club. NZ fencers don't matter enough to have their pictures on the wall even though it was alleged that "everyone winning a world Championship" would have one displayed. Six World Championships and one World Cup Title is not enough.
It is the fact that the coach continues to think the interview done by Becca is her showing a lack of smarts and integrity and won't let it go. He of course will not defend her.
You know, just stuff. So many little things that add up and up and up and up....
Also mentioning who Ms Ward dates is so Romeo and Juliet.
GOOD GRIEF!!!

The Momster Agreed. I'd like to think that people have learned to use Facebook for all of their gossip and further learned that if they are unable to do so that perhaps the gossip is just not for them.  I now dangle to the left....my tassle. Get your minds out of the gutter.

I just hate how they make you go through 5 "pages," even though the bottom of each page has an asston of white space.

Just a hint, a lot of newspapers waste the internet this way, but they all have the option for a printable version (on this article it is on the right side, a link that says print this). This will open an easy to read, click-free version. "LFM for Nationals Attunement. PST."
