trading cards? - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- this is why I dont drink....LOL
Hey, anyone going to, actually, do those "tradin cards" ???
funny clip - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good stuff ! Alot of (suspect) slipping and regripping going on!! Tough on the refs and the thumbs. Round robin is good-
4 practice and 2 see who takes 3rd. Not so good on the tendons...... OUCH !!! Happy healing ! Major talent @ this-
one.
- scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LoL - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- best pin on armtv at 2:25 - Kyle Fitzpatrick----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Big Mac "I lost to Tim Lewis" Telle,
Chad all day. It wont even be close Brother - jason burton----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OK, that's who I thought you were talking about, but wanted to make sure because that did not sound like the Brandon I-
ever met. He might be cocky but never once have i personally seen he be a dick to anyone, especially like what was said.-
so that makes sense if it was someone else. - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Man i did not realize i gave bill such a hard time lol Hey IMO Bill is by far the best ref I ever been reffed by honest-
and fair, and keeps the ball rolling in a high match tourney like the round robin. great job mr. collins and mac and-
every one involved.
I will never miss that tourney if there are more! - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tommy how you doing? I hope your recovery is fast and smooth. I missed you in Florida. Maybe your crew will be at-
Unifieds. - Kyle Darby----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The other post have been deleted, I wish I knew how to delete mine. It was a misunderstanding between me and B.Dye.-
Someone had logged on his account and made comments about my wife. After talking to Brandon he doesn't seem like that-
kinda guy and its straightened out. - Tommy Russell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tommy who are you talking about? where did this person say these thing about you? - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- fast hits and floating elbows ... looked like an intense event - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- lol.
"Stop! No I mean keep going!"
- Jerry Cunningham----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary you look really good. You lost alot of weight and I think you should start competing in armwrestling and that Devin-
guy seems like a really cool guy. - Justin Kerns----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nano Cruz is a show off.....LMAO...and his hand is as big as a catchers mit.
Nano is crazy strong, and when he masters-
the tecnique of this sport, I would watch out. Between Jody "Sexual Chocolate" Williams, Nano Cruz, Darren Wartena and-
Sophie, I would say that Team Twisted Wrists is a huge success....Great Team! - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cant wait till thats posted! - Giordano Cruz----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The round robin was fun and challenging but the left handed 176+ open was alot of fun. Me, Brian Brandon, and Kenny-
Hughes battled for the the finale and it was crazy! - Giordano Cruz----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the positive comments. Brandon is strong as hell and if anyone is gonna beat Chad within that weight class-
its going to be Brandon. With that being said a few comments did come off a little sideways during taping of the event.-
Not going to throw the quotes or names out but its all recorded for viewing. Just going to say this, if someone doesnt-
perform and they have a reason. Its usually an excuse. - Giordano Cruz----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a savage highlight reel from a true legend. - Kyle Darby----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quinlan is a hog. Who does he train with. This dude is technically sound. - Kyle Darby----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMO
Nano Cruz = Best Toproll
Brandon Dye = Best Hook
Luke Kindt = Most versatile and fastest
very exciting format-
to watch. Gary, I never saw Nix vs. Kindt? - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Devin has only been pulling 2 months longer than me! Pretty cool, impressive gains in am under 4 year time span - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- this is a top three clip. yours is next - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- hey Gary is this all the video you have of the round robin? - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cruz looked bad ass. - chris heath----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Kindt, you're crafty like a fox. - Kyle Darby----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Let me say this, I dont want to come off as some Dick thats trying to pick fights but I didnt really say nothing out of-
the way and this little stupid mfer gonna talk about fkn my wife,the mother of my children. So be prepared to roll me up-
or whatever it was you said you'll do to me because you'll get your chance when we meet you little stupid mfer - Tommy Russell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ok, first off I made a comment geared towards armwrestling and you want to take it to another level. That's fine with-
me.
Ive been fightin my whole life too and not with the protection of the military, in the street. Im older now with-
3 kids and don't do alot of the things I used to do. But with the way you like to run your fuckin mouth you aint givin-
me shit im gonna take it when I see you. Talk shit to me in person and I'll show you better than I can tell you. And-
lay off the hgh your fkn head is about to explode you little ugly motherfucker. As a matter of fact fuck you I want you-
to come at me with all this with when I see you so I can beat the brakes off your little cocky ass. I'll come to-
unifieds and dare your little bitch ass to talk to me the same way your doing on this board. - Tommy Russell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jimmy Payne
A True Friend
A World Champion
A Great Father
And Loved by all.
You will be truly missed.
Your Legacy-
will carry on. - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thats cool, maybe its the editing that makes him look like a dick, or maybe its when someone makes a comment on a public-
forum and he says Fk you and commented on how he fked my wife. I dont personally know the guy but he comes off as a-
dick. Started off he was to big and too strong for everybody then by the end he was burnt. Either way Chads gonna spank-
that ass!!! - Tommy Russell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually Brandon made over a dozen compliments towards Nano Cruz and a few other pullers in that weight class....im not-
speaking for anyone, but video that has been edited and a live event are 2 different things...Brandon is actually very-
supportive for all pullers win or lose... - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All you ever do is make excuses. Ive never seen you give it up for anybody that beat you or gave you a fit on the table.-
As far as the Fk you comment and the comment about my wife we'll see if you are willing to say those things to me in-
person when theres consequences. Just because you're a good armwrestler dont mean you wont get hit in your mfin mouth-
for makin comments about my wife you little big headed bastard - Tommy Russell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brandon Dye is a heck of a armwrestler, but I think that Chad Silvers is a little too much for him right now. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brandon Dye was friggin amazing. Brandon is for sure on a whole other level. There is no need to put any money on Chad-
and Brandon...they are both incredible pullers, but seeing Brandon's performance in just this last year....Im a 100%-
sure that Dye Vs. Silvers will be probably one of the most amazing matches of the century. Brandon will come out on top.-
- Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOL, Jacob Hale,
The only bet I have ever not paid was to a TROLL on the northeast board....I do however appreciate the-
props on this awesome event...Bill Collins is a mastermind for coming up with this format...Thats why Bill Collins is-
one of the best Promoters in the United States....Im just glad Bill is my Obe One Kenobi.....I will be a Jedi soon! - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Awesome Stuff Gary!!! Now thats what Im talking about!!!!
Mac Telle Congrats!!!! Looks like you pulled off one heck-
of an event.
I Agree. Round Robin style is the furture of tournament armwrestling. Todd King has been running those-
for a few years down here in florida.
Nano Cruz?!?!? Who the hell is that dude??? His hand looks ungodly.
Brandon-
Dye Congrats, beat a stacked class. didnt like your comment at the end "I was just spent" yeah, so was Cruz. You shoulda-
given him respect there. Truth is you got handled.
This just confirms what all of us already know in the South. Chad-
Silvers is about run a clinic on you. You DO NOT have the hand to beat him. End of...
Mac, if you wanna bet some $$-
on it, many of us would love to take your money but word is you welch on bets... Don't know. - jacob hale----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just burnt??? He wont even slow Silvers down. - Tommy Russell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "it's quick and painless. like speed dating." classic. - Kyle Fitzpatrick----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nano is a freak, hes basically a rookie too. I pulled him after OR state, he is strong as hell. He beat Tom Nelsons left-
in the overall. Incredible hand strength for a new guy, for anyone for that matter. - Logan Schuetzle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had nothing left for nano nough said, couldnt get in a hook or hit fast enough, strong hand for sure! - Brandon Dye----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nano Cruz looked like the strongest armwrestler there,no one could match his back pressure. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- good pulls !!! - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NANO! NANO! Taking complete control !! McDonalds in the house !! - scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wow..Wow!! - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- tagging matches now..shocking crazy ass video. future of armwrestling...ENDURANCE. i LOVE ME SOME OF THAT. I know you-
guys want to know who the best is over one or two matches...but Round Robin Style is da shizznits.... :) - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Got to represent Eric! - John Shaw----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good clip. Devin, I used to walk to Raybestos field and watch King's Court play. Those guys were amazing! - James Retarides----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I feel you brother cut backs everywhere, don't get me started but the average public doesn't know that there are-
thousands of inmates getting released back into the public get ready Ca!! - Eric Martinez----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cool, use to run a water well pump rig. - Eric Martinez----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know there was a reason why I like John Shaw MOPAR baby. - Eric Martinez----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Devin Mackin is a honey dipper.....I love it....dont try and class it up....you play with poop.....I love Devin-
Mackin..I will give you free back rubs and foot massages... - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cool video! - Kenneth Leach----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You gotta check out these inteviews with Devin on your water...good stuff. Not armwrestling related but informative.-
Driving home 10 hours from Larry Feezor Classic which was a blast. I have preloaded the interviews with Devin while you-
wait for me to get to work on the Feezor Classic. First videos will be tomorrow..Great stuff. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- fun day :)
- Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mackin vs. Keating or Bishop, Chop, or Tom Taylor, I would looooove to see. - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MCAC part 1 3:26 in James Retarides(sp) commentary was more important the match. There are MANY more that I do not have-
the time to pick out. I understand why, because you do have "passion" for this, but these are the things that are-
HURTING your business. Take my advice man. - jonathan vazquez----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am simply giving you advice, take it or leave it. Not putting what you are doing down, just suggesting. Everyone edits-
video these days so I do have a hint of what it entails. Maybe if you would have put up a poll of what people wanted 5-
years ago, 4 years ago, etc etc You could be making your living off of this sport we love.I now compete in Jiu-jitsu-
tournaments as well, I don't know anyone who watches the interviews of those tournaments...... - jonathan vazquez----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am not sure which event you are referring to. if it is regards to florida. we only had it set up to do a live. we had-
no control over the falling through of that. in regards to PAL matches we only had right to do interviews. In regards to-
my weight loss video...I only posted on my FB and that was for me. In regards towards anything else. I happen to enjoy-
the interviews, it changes the pace of my editing. I am not sure if you are paying attention to everything I explain in-
the past but interviews get posted for a reason sometimes. for instance I am about to post devin mackin interviews while-
I am driving up north for an event. 20 hours of drive time. the interviews are instead of matches. bringing in-
membership? no probably not but it is a video update while I am driving. come down here and intern I'll show you how it-
is done and you can help. And as I have explained. I now have another job to do in addition to ARM TV. ...so there are-
changes coming and addmittedly NOT all good changes. My hope is that I will make more money else where and be able to do-
what I have always wanted too with ARM TV. Time will tell. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honestly I don't want to watch any interviews. I want to watch matches. I think you should put up a poll Gary. Who wants-
or cares to see interviews. Who wants just matches. A healthy combo of both? I am willing to bet that interviews are not-
what attracts new viewers? No offense to your good intentions and hard work but how many of your customers were actually-
interested in the "Gary made weight" video........these are legit questions you should ask yourself and your viewers.-
Also do your viewers want to watch the match at hand or the interview with the "superstar" who just got off stage?-
Missing matches for commentary is a huge No-No in my humble opinion. - jonathan vazquez----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wu Wear at 6:36. man, haven't seen any of that since 97. - Kyle Fitzpatrick----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jake and Brandon great match up,if they go into the straps Jake will win because he got better back pressure,other then-
that a very close match. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- brandon, we all pulled that day. we will pull again and i will show you again that you cant beat me - Jake Smith----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Awesome Stuff the last few days Gary. Good Job! - jacob hale----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nice work Gary. Good to see Todd Hutchings come back in to armwrestling again. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well Logan, we may see if you are right..then again maybe we won't... - Anthony Snook----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason has a great passion for the progression of the sport, and could not have a better group of guys backing him, I-
believe TN is the fastest growing armwrestling state in the US and with Gulley leading its only gonna get better, nice-
work buddy! - david Owens----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Great story. It rivals the Klemba interviews. I am rating this clip a 50. I rated the last clip a 50 too but not because-
of Gulley, because of his dog! - James Retarides----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That dog is the frickin BEST!!!!! - James Retarides----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You got it Gary. - Nathan Seamon----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We were soo behind at one point...I have people complaining about what events haven't been posted that I have had to-
take my eye off the ball and stop what I am currently doing and go back to make others happy. In this situation..NO ONE-
is happy. I am trying to make 2012 better... all I can ask for is your patience to see if we can pull it off. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I used to work many many hours without slip directly after a tournament...so between travel filming and editing between-
friday and sunday/monday I would often put in an etire work week into those three days. If people do not sign up I am-
not going to continue to work those kind of hours..I am sorry. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- video posting got behind for a few different reasons. Tagging matches and too many tournaments. doing more tournaments,-
equals more work but if new members do not sign up then it makes it very difficult to keep that pace. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- you are seeing older videos now because I am not going to start the new year behind....I have spread the older videos-
out recently because I have had to work other jobs to get ahead so I can start the year correctly. I am also beginning a-
quest with CrossFit which will hopefully bring in some more revenue so I can hire an editor. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I appreciate all of the comments but it also shows that some of you are not paying attention as I have explained all of-
this in my previous videos and posts ..the whos whats wheres and whys we are in the situation we are. ... to keep it-
simple I will add another comment separately. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jacob, well said. I was being sarcastic earlier. I too was a member for years but cancelled due things i could find on-
other websites for FREE and much much more recent. Just my two cents. - Taylor McInnis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Awesome Nathan. How long have you been a member? I've been watching ARMTV for 8 years. I've watched just about-
everything on here ad nauseam. New videos are what I'm looking for. - jacob hale----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary, I have no complaints about ArmTV. It would seem that every one is focusing on new videos being posted in a timely-
manner and forgetting that there is much more to this site than new videos, there is a great deal of history here. How-
many people buy a movie and watch it once? If it's a shitty movie maybe, but there is nothing shitty about anything on-
this site. There are thousands of videos to watch and that access to said videos is what you pay for. Go back, watch old-
videos, tag people in them, become a part of ArmTV and not just a viewer. - Nathan Seamon----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The live feed failure was 100% out of your hands. The venue did not have an Internet connection and there was nothing-
that could be done about that.
Let me be clear Gary, I DO NOT want to leave ARMTV. There was a time when you would-
post entire tournaments within 3-4 days of returning from it. Now, you post 1 clip, then 2 days later a clip from some-
other tournament, then a week later a clip of some guys practicing in a basement, then a week later an interview that-
NOBODY wants to pay money to see, then nothing for a week, then 1 clip from 2 year old supermatch that has become-
irrelevant, then another week after that you post another random video, then the next week you post the second clip of-
the tourney that corresponds to the first clip that you posted 6 weeks earlier, and this goes on and on and on... -
Please, put yourself in our shoes.
If this was your hobby and you were doing it for free, no one would have the-
right to complain. However, YOU have my credit card on file and YOU automatically charge it at a schedule that YOU have-
determined. Therefore I have a right as a consumer to say "Dude, I'm not getting my money's worth here Gary".
Gary-
if it were not for blind loyalty and the desire to support YOU and all that you have done, I would have been gone a long-
time ago like many other people have. But I, unlike many others, have chosen to stay because I do not want the see this-
site die. Why do you think people have left the site? Let's be honest Gary, people have left ARMTV because The value-
isn't there anymore. It seems like you are irritated that people have left and you are blaming THEM instead of looking-
at the real issue. It does not appear that you do not have enough time to post entire tourneys or events in order-
because you are obviously spending time posting stuff most do not want to see. The Market is telling you that you have-
to do one of two things; either dramatically up your quality of product, or lower your price. If you do not, then I fear-
that we all may lose access this awesome resource that you have built from the ground up.
Gary, I do not say these-
things to bitch. I say them as a frustrated and concerned member that loves ARMTV and respects Gary Roberts immensely-
and I hope it is around for a long, long time. - jacob hale----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- jacob your comments are extremely frustrating! you need to be more specific. - Taylor McInnis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- well, I have done 5 tourney's
(taped/edited/compiled footage) and its an average of 2 hours of editing, frame-
transitions, audio, etc before 1 minute is viewable, for the public... If you'd like to help the process, for everyone-
... go film tourney's with a 720 dpi or better cam, and go home ... clip each match, create transitions, reference-
points, for tagging, and then set it up for display, then compile it.
It does take a bit of time ... I personally have-
done this stuff ... so I just look forward to being able to view footage, when its available
Thx Gary, for your time-
making these, for us! - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't know what to say other than speak with your dollars and cancel your membership. I am working on getting things-
in order to do 2012 more efficiently than last year. You guys think I like having videos up a month late? You think I-
like having live broadcasts fall to shit? Do you think I like having to take other jobs so I have less time on ARM TV.-
Do what you got to do. I'll find away with or without ya. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What kind of time does it take to upload a video, maybe a little ruffer (not as edited) version of the product to get it-
up a little faster is warrented, and I gotta agree with Jacob the UAL stuff from last may is not really what I'm-
interested in now, I think getting a ruff version of a video up quickly is better than a great version of a video a-
month later.....we know you work hard Gary ..we know you are doing other stuff but we are still here ...still paying! - david Owens----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary, I truly hate criticizing your work because I love ARMTV and respect everything you have done for the sport. But as-
someone who is giving you money for a product, I will reserve the right to voice my opinion when I do not think I am-
getting my money's worth. You could vastly improve the product of the site if you will simply post all clips in sequence-
rather then jumping around all over the place. - jacob hale----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I agree with Jacob. I think you have done many great things Gary for the sport, however; we are paying good money to-
see good arm wrestling, and it just isn't happening. I understand that you are trying to do less with fewer members,-
which means less money, but we need to see more such as the live event that didn't work out this past Saturday. I'm just-
not sure that there are enough new videos and such to justify the price we pay each month. - Bradley D Shinn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- what is it you are looking for? every tournament every time instantly?? would have happened if people stayed-
members...but that isn't the case so we have to figure out how to do less with less...and add other jobs and-
responsibilities. I did my best Jacob. :/ - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just waiting for gary to FRIGGIN' POST SOMETHING WORTH FRIGGIN' WATCHING!!!!! This is getting soooooo old gary I dont-
know how much longer I can justify paying for this site bro. - jacob hale----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GO FRIGIN' PATRIOTS!!!!!!! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So is part 3 ever gonna come out??? - Tayor Beatty----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good pulls Frode & Chad... Silvers hit & hand were just too much this time!! - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Congrates to M.Todd... Tim B. is a beast too! not a pretty match but a win nonetheless!! - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My question is when are we gonna see amateurs try to start using this move. I mean you see brand new guys who dont have-
the technique to flop wrist getting hurt how soon will this catch on after they start watching videos and trying to be-
like their heroes. - Mike McGarry----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Given Bresnan's back pressure and hand strength, I don't think Todd had any other option, but this defensive style works-
for him. He almost beat Cyplenkov in the same position when he was probably weaker. Kudos to Todd for being strong-
enough to compensate for having no hand control, having a killer shoulder press, and wisely using a deformed right arm-
that doesn't completely straighten due to over-healing of past injuries to his advantage. If he can stop you, he can-
figure out how to beat you. Impressive. - Joel Courson----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pullers will certainly need to become more versatile in order to counter this style of Defensive Armwrestling. - Neil Pickup----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chad's a BEAST! - Orin Hubbard----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If this style keeps going and more people start doing this we are gonna have to figure out a new style to combat it...-
not that i have any idea what that is - Mike McGarry----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Crazy George style,come on!!!!! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Armwrestling is better than that !!!!! - scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Todd can do better than that. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That's one hell of a highlight reel. Chads world class IMO - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I disagree, dye could beat him inside. - Logan Schuetzle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- not pretty.. - Logan Schuetzle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This bores me... - Herman Stevens II----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I like the energy of pullers; even if it's somewhat "for show"
I've let out a cpl .... w/e its called after a pull-
with a strong/technical puller. To be honoest, when I get in my "zone" to pull, I dont even see my oponent, the ref,-
crowd, anything ...
Both pullers earned their own riht to be on the big stage and I commend them.
Thx for-
posting these Gary! - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think Matt Harris is my favorite puller due to his sickness to incognito ratio. This is the man I would want to take-
around the world and hustle people lol. - Andy Freeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First off Geoff and Jake were putting on a show. Niether appeared to be upset after. Why do people wanna pop off to-
Jake? He put on a show it's that easy. - Kyle Darby----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- jake you beat me after i had two supermatches with allen fisher and simon berriochoa, give me a break i was spent when-
we pulled i had nothing for you! Come to US Open i will show you what the bam bam slam is all about brotha! I bet you a-
hundred grand even fisher would tell you the same thing! - Brandon Dye----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was told he broke his arm, but I don't the details. - Herman Stevens II----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What Happened to RJ in this match? - Orin Hubbard----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nobody was watching those shoulders out at all - daniel shelton----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I totally agree. I believe that gives a lot of people something to shoot for. Chad has been pullin a long time, so he's-
got the power, experience, and tendon strength.
- Isaiah Tomlin----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- not going to ever happen again
- Corey Miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jake,
Keep that pretty smile. All tho boys in joint love it. - Jeremy Wiswell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeremy, big talk. Internet warrior. Id take your glasses too - Jake Smith----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel, Ron Klemba, matt harris, and brandon Dye are all my weight and yet some how i have beaten them all the last time-
we have pulled - Jake Smith----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think Jake would have been pickn his teeth up if he had grabbed my glasses. - Jeremy Wiswell----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the thing is jake only beats lighter weight good pullers nobody his weight that is good and to bump into him after the-
first match i think is pretty lame - daniel shelton----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the "glasses-snatch" by jake will go down in history as one of armwrestlings most memorable moments. - Kyle Fitzpatrick-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think we need a rematch with Jake and Geoff Hale,that was to funny!
i - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jake, you crack me up - Jamie Sheldon----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LMAO !!!! - scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Corey Miller, You did a great job. Luke just looked like he had a little more back pressure than you and that's why your-
wrist was flopping back. (which I'm sure you're aware of). Cause when someone's got more back pressure they can take-
control of your wrist and make it flop back. You're a great arwmrestler Corey...Keep it up! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIKE....
- Jamie Sheldon----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of the pins are questionable! To close to call a win. Huge elbow foul. Fun to watch in slow motion ! Good match-
up. - scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- man i never realized i sucked that bad, ive never have ever lost my wrist so much in my life. un believable wow i-
actually tried to limp wrist with my right hand lol what a joke i suck balls lol
- Corey Miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- if you watch it in slow motion especially the last match chads elbow was in the air also he was off the pad in his other-
matches great matches both guys top notch - tony patterson----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I thought Frode Haugland had a chance after the 2nd match,Chad Silvers hit was just to much on the last few-
matches,great ARMWRESTLING! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- looked like the first hit silvers had, was close but w/o an extra angle to show it from the pinline, gotta go with the-
call the ref makes.. good matches ... way to keep ur composure Chad - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- good pulls - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Great pulling you guys!!!!! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Awesome pulling Cory & Luke... Great match-up!! - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Will we also get to see the Chad vs Frode Match?
- Johnny Edwards----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GREAT SHOW !!! - scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "THE GARY ROBERTS ROAST" Good thing your not an addict of some sort Gary! Everyone needs the support of there family !-
You could work 6 days a week 12 hours a day for 3 months straight on location an another state...... One examble of-
another JOB u could have. It could be worse !! That being said Gary I believe you made a huge impact on the sport of AW-
! And I also think you have only scratched the surface of possibilities !!! Imo. "Life is not about finding yourself --
life is about creating yourself" Good luck my friend !
- scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary,you got a real nice wife,everyone is feeling the hard times these days,you guys will be really missed. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary, your lucky she is nice cause there would be many wives that kick you to the curb. Do not get over your head sir! - chris heath----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jamie although you killed me the second match you are a beast rt now by the way great job in your recent touneys and-
whoopin me. But the first match you and I pulled was an early call and a bad call IMO. But my match with the new guy was-
the worst call I ever seen. I should have had a restart. mr. Ed Mohle where were you on that one bud? Smith your alright-
to. lol Thanks for the free lesson im coming back so strong we will meet again!!!!!!!!!!!!! - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reichert is close - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry Ron I wanted the cover to be your win over Brent but I couldn't get a decent shot that wasn't blurry :( - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think it was called a bit early. - Jamie Sheldon----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tim Lewis, you're looking lean!!! Nice win on Eric Walls! - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Man im not really sure how they called that a loss on me, my hand was not even close to the pad and my wrist was not-
flopped! Its really hard to tell but looks like his elbow maybe popped up before mine came off the back at about 35 sec-
even if it did not pop off first i should have got a restart and elbow foul at the worst not a loss. Or am I wrong any-
thoughts on this? - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Great match between Spine and Fraley!!! I want to see a best of 5. - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Can anyone tell me if Cobra Rhodes can beat Jim Fitzsimmons these days? They used to be big time rivals back in the day-
and Fitzsimmons used to have no problem putting Cobra down. Just wondering if anything has changed between these two in-
the past 25 years or so. I'd love to see a match between those two again!! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When gary was talking to Griffin he sounded like he never worked out,yes you can hit every piece of equipement for the-
max or 6reps, that could make a difference. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cory got to ride shot gun on the way home for handling Gary ! Made pops pround !!!
- scott wynn----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What makes you say that he does not work hard at IT. Maybe he works incredibly hard in the gym. - Bob Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- well done griffin ! - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can build your arm up with a armwrestling machine or weights,or just armwrestling people,some guys are just gifted -
and do not have to work at it as hard,looks likes like Griffin is one of those guys. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wow
- jeff huber----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fantastic match-up... Cobra & the Steel Giraffe!!! Best vid I've seen in a while! - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The new guy Griff is no joke man!! Beating pros in his first tourny??!! Beastly!! - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nice! Dude is lookin strong for a brand new guy. Anyone got any contact info for him? Im in Palmdale right next to-
Lancaster... and I've got a table. Want to get up with this guy. - Aaron Blevins----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- sorry I was referring to Micheal todd and tim bresnan clip. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wait, they actually pulled? I meant when are we gonna see it as in, when are Robert Drenk and Bill Collins going to set-
it up? I didn't know that it already happened! - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am saving it for next weekend. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, when are we gonna see Michael Todd vs. Jerry Cadorette? - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Så jävla grym Nicklas! - Philip Berencreutz----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh my God...this is too frigin' funny! I love it!!! Great Match. - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excellent armwrestling Cobra! You finally found someone with a hand as big as yours and an arm as long, but they have to-
be about 6'7" in order to match up hand and arm size. LOL! You were one of the best around back in the day and you're-
still one of the best around nowadays. Great Work!! - Richard Brown----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- great match up - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- very good supermatch - daniel shelton----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This was a GREAT matchup!!! - Johnny Edwards----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That match was flippin epic!!! Love it! - Joseph Cordova----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By far one of the BEST Supermatches I've seen!!! - Chris Kaufman----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOL Aaron.
- Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ha! damn....shht was long, couldn't tell how long on my fone. I d@mm sure aint gonna get in a paragraph battle with-
you... you'll be talkin shhht for days. - Aaron Blevins----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aaron Blevins,
Take that long paragraph to Oprah Winfrey or Dr. Oz.
nut swing on your own time. - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Even writing this down and reading it shows me that Gary has truly been the stable force in armwrestling for the past 8-
years, when we have all taken breaks for life, family, $$$ or whatever ...he's still rolling out videos for his-
audience. His job or not ..im glad he does and ill gladly pay him for his efforts. Not nutswingin... just not-
bullshittin. He's the real deal in armwrestling and o or he even would probably hate to see it go away. Btw... im just-
seeing g this video because I wasn't a member when he posted it. But thats my dude for keeping them rollin. - Aaron Blevins----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mac, here's the deal IMO... You are right about everything you are saying. I was one of the ones saying the same things-
you are saying now a couple years ago. I was a member for 3 &1/2 years straight, paying, just like you said...in times-
when I should have been paying other things, ARMTV got paid from me. More recently I got away from it and have spent-
less time armwrestling and less $ paying ARMTV. BTW.... I was also one of the people telling Gary to tag his own-
matches... or all of ours instead of us doing it, to me, it was his job not mine. But, right now, after 6 months or so-
without ARMTV... im back... as a paying customer and look fwd to doing so in the future. Because at the end of the day,-
im here for one thing armwrestling footage... that is all. Its not my place or yours to tell Gary what he should or-
shouldn't be doing... as long we have this website active and running.... when that stops, we all stop no doubt. But, I-
doubt you or me or anyone else wants that. I dont care if Gary doesn't want to tag matches anymore. I can do my own or-
someone else will. Not a big deal. Supply & Demand says Gary has "Control" of this market... yes... and he can do less,-
but, you Mac weren't even a member when this website was a WHOLE LOT LESS THAN IT IS NOW. WAAAY before Leach ever came-
into the picture. Point is supply & demand right? Yes. His website, his decisions, not mine... as long az I get-
MYARMTV.... IM GOOD WITH IT. He actually says too much actually giving a damn about his customers and letting them know-
his thought process and why he is doing this or that. That in itself allows people like you or me in the past to tee off-
on him. He does it cuz he does give a damn... and im also good with that, so im not gonna take advantage of him because-
he informs us of his intentions or decisions going fwd. Im just gonna say, give me MYARMTV and I will gladly pay for it.-
Even in the slight possibility that Gary is using my $$$ to possibly smoke crack and get skinny??? I dont care... play-
armwrestling videos, Thas all I got. - Aaron Blevins----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Were they only calling elbow fouls when position was gained at this tourney? - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Great tourney!!
Enjoyed the after-pulling too... almost had Michael S. there for a minute Gary!!! ;) - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why did someone change "Jason Meyerhoffer" to "Terry Schwichtenberg" in this video? That is Jason Meyerhoffer from-
Minnesota in all these matches. Wtf? - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I did the afterpulling till everyone literally left. I was in there with 2 other people at the end lol. Took my arms-
about 3 weeks to recover because I started before the tournament even ended. I bet thats how Brzenk got so good. Or not-
lol he was just delivered by Chuck Norris. - Johnny Edwards----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stump vs Darnell
Make it happen
Hello does anyone hear me!! - David Marrocco----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes it was in front of his elbow pad which is on the losing side of the table....if both mens hands or any part of the-
natural wristline go below the pinline and they did not slip until they hit the table then a pin must be called....in-
this case on kris side of the table therefor he would have won - david Owens----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- David that wasn't losing side, it was straight down in front of James elbow pad, watch it again - Mike West----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave marrocco.. Please stay out of the 42s.. Thx lol - mike meador----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- kris mikals at 9:59 should have gotten the win on James R by WAF rules, there was no slip and you cannot pin on the-
losing side of the tabel, my dad lost to Ryan Weaver the same way in Reno....people need to be aware of this-
rule....EVEN WITH HAND CONTROL YOU CANNOT PIN ON THE LOSING SIDE OF THE TABLE - david Owens----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Set it up Mr. Rick Laton!!!!! - jason burton----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Should have hooked the first time stump..might have changed the outcome. - mike meador----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Collins will be posting details about Redding Ca soon.
January 28th, Bill is a genius, You will all be happy with-
the way he will be running this event...$$.. - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good win scotty, always a pleasure pulling against you. - Steven Stanford----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JANUARY 28th 2012
REDDING CALIFORNIA!!!!

I think that was Vazgens buddy. - ryan davis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- good pulls! - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I maybe avg an hour a day now? Of armtv time... in 2009, early 2010 I was the #1 armtv watcher for sure. Derek probably-
has me beat for sure now. - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If the video of him breaking someone's arm was him breaking Justin Rhodes arm, that was post 2009 cuz he broke Rhodes's-
arm in April 2009. Good story! - Josh Handeland----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i almost had you, ryan! next time you're going down, buddy... - Kyle Fitzpatrick----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gotta Love Tim. - Scott Harris----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Heath looked strong.. - mike meador----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2:28...

Well done James & Clint!! - robert miller----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Herman McCoy is awesome - David Rue----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- one day I hope to be at that level .. for now, I'm still learning stuff, everytime I grip up - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- that's sooo awesome!!!
More people should share their story too - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chase yourself Bruce! You are the man bro. Train hard and people will be chasin you too sir. - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If it makes you feel any better Derek...you got someone chasing you now...haha.

- Bruce Urabe----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WOW what a nerd. - Derek Smith----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mac I will take that bet all day. Call me and we will confirm it. (229) 291-9599 - jason burton----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LoL Mike Meador......shouldnt you be training for our super match??? you have ALOT of training to do...train hard my-
friend. - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- be quiet mac - mike meador----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Travis Bagent is stupid strong too.. - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Logsdon is stupid STRONG!!!! - Travis Bagent----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am fixing...standbye. - Gary Roberts----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $500 Brandon Dye Over Chad Silvers!! and not one person responds........cuz the truth is Brandon will dominate Chad.
No-
if ands or buts. - Mac Telle----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This was, to me, an awesome event ... and bittersweet though ... if you were there, you know what I mean. Ty again, for-
your encouragement. And Thx Gary, I understand what you mean man, but I am human too. I am enjoying the time off, and-
recooping from Co State, lol.
Thx agn.

Ty, to those who worked with me, on the table too. I really appreciate-
it. Hope to see yas again soon. - Jim Cowan----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | |
