So in other words, a lighter "look a like" to Kesean, got his weigh in card, did the skin check, weighed in, got the markings on his arms, then they went back to the hotel where the REAL Kesean duplicated the markings on the arm, and the "look a like" Kesean was put back in his box to hide until the next tourney?
I'm sure nothing like that could happen. Certainly not. And as you assured us, it "must be a mistake", because nothing like the above is possible. Thanks for clearing that up.
No I wasn't there when Kesean weighed.../quote]
But you assured us it "must be a mistake". Now, formerly being relieved and assured of this "mistake", I am once again confused.
[quote=doug747]...I witnessed my son going to a 3rd scale to find a scale that was 1/10th lighter. I don't know how many scales there were, maybe 5?, but the 3 my son weighed on didn't have anyone working them that was willing to give a tenth of a pound. Of course it wasn't expected that they would, I am just saying............
This in no way (in my opinion) explains any discrepancy that is being discussed here (which was present, but since you assured us all about this being a "mistake", is no longer). It does speak to, however, the unfortunate circumstance that the scales weren't (apparently) certified/accurate (it would seem). How in the world any state in the country (except for California of course) would hold a state tournament without 100% certified scales, is beyond this insensitive sob.
I believe we have a classic case of someone blaming a loss on "he was so much bigger than me!!"
Not in my case, I assure you. My kid is nowhere near this kids age/weight-class.
