Believe it or not, I had to miss it-getting my 7 year old ready for a tournament the next day. 6:30 weighins are a killer for an old man! And squatting and kneeling 5 days after knee surgery wasn't smart either. 1st home OSU dual I have missed in 21 years, and I guess several people from back home were here because of Ludke. Never crossed my mind at the time.

For entertainment (www.stinkerboys.com) you can watch 3 matches, take about a minute each. Amazing, he does so much in practice that he wont do during a match.

Try to keep up with how you guys are doing. I guess Beims quit at Colby? But it is a little tough to do. Never realized when I quit reffing I would miss it so much, until I started hitting the kids tourneys. Just feels natural being around again. If the legs could take it after 14 operations I might get back in.
