    Columbia Fencing

    http://www.gocolumbialions.com/ViewA...DB_OEM_ID=9600

    Anyone who was at the dual meet a few weeks ago already knows this, but I figured I would post the press release.

    No, it says very clearly that he is from Korea, not 'Nam.

    I look forward to Eric's inevitable response as to why this is a terrible decision, and is indeed a forerunner of the Antichrist.

    On the contrary; I think it was a brilliant decision. It allows Aufrichtig to induce any FC members currently taking lessons from coach Lee to switch to the NYAC get lessons for free! Just as he has manage to induce several HS saber fencers from Yury Gelman's Club to join the NYAC so he can "better determine if he can help them gain admision to Columbia."

    For I looked and beheld a pale horse, and he that sat upon it was NYAC, and Hell followed after. And he was given authority over one fourth the ivy league college applicants, to recruit and bend to his will.

    Wow. Just wow. I held back last time you started talking sh*t, but as an NYAC and Columbia fencer I simply can't let this slide. You have no idea what you are talking about. No such thing ever happened. I don't know who these "several HS saber fencers" that you are referring to are. Only one person has recently switched to the AC from MFC, and it had nothing to do with that quote which you most certainly made up.

    I was wondering how you would manage to twist this. Last thread, you were railing against Mike for not being a real coach and not hiring anyone. Now you say it's all a conspiracy. Are you actually this bitter, or just stupid? Please explain why FC members would have to switch to NYAC to get free lessons if they are on the Columbia team. How does a club affiliation affect an FC fencer on the Columbia team? How does an FC fencer taking lessons from Lee even have to directly associate with the NYAC during the admissions process, or in their training? They can apply, get in, stay at FC, and keep working with Lee. Never have to set foot near the AC, least of all represent it.

    It's more the intrigue. I like seeing what people come up with sometimes.
