oldtimer Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Tommy I've congratulated you already but now I want to make it public. The two guys that witnessed you doing the #4 have nothing but high praise for you. Reuben also described with great glee all the other things you did with the blob, the 45s, etc. My question is how many times had you closed the #4 before you got certified? I know you'd done it at least several times before because of the rumblings I was hearing weeks ago. You did it weighing only 168 lb! Guess you and Nathan showed them that you don't have to be extremely stout to pull this off. You're a class act, lad. Any chance you're going to the Arnold?

SilentDude Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 It seems the majority of the #4 closers so far have been lightweight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom of Iowa2 Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 It seems the majority of the #4 closers so far have been lightweight Although Samuelsons close isn't officiall yet?him and Dave have a combined weight of close to 600lbs. Tommy's feat at 168# is all the more remarkable in IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersqueeze Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Actions speak louder than words. In my opinion, you have taken far too much flack but to your credit, you always took it like a man and produced the goods. A huge congratulations! You are a very strong GENTLEMAN! Mike M.
