    Top 10 Athlete Websites

    I'm trying to compile a list of the top-10 fencing athlete websites.

    I have a few nominees so far at my blog
    http://timmorehouse.wordpress.com/20...lete-websites/

    If you have any nominees...send them my way! Thanks!

    That link got mangled, here's a working one: http://timmorehouse.wordpress.com/20...lete-websites/

    Jason Rogers' site looks great.

    Some very nice photos on this site:

    I can't vote for a Web site (website?!?) where the fencer is not demonstrating proper safety procedure. I see no evidence of a plastron or chest protector in this picture. Not to mention, the zipper clearly needs to be repaired. They may be able to get away with this in some of those foreign countries, but here in the US, I'm sure a referee would give her a card of some type for this. She's a role model for crying out loud.

    Shocking!

    I do like the commentary that Tim's Web site provides...I like the insight he provides into the competition in general as much as the fencing specifics.

    She looks like the type that doesn't wash her hands after touching raw chicken either! Oh the humanity.

    She is being added to the top-10 list...Great find! I know Pozniakov had a website, but for the life of me I couldn't find it.
