OK...Here comes a thread for all of you wannabe odds-makers. Post your thoughts for establishing handicaps for personal challenge races. Here are a couple of mine: 1. Age credit: basic idea.....the older of the two gets a handicap. (as in chaos vs. muppet) the handicap goes to yours truly. 2. Wetsuit penalty: self explanatory....I heard 10% is a good rule of thumb for this one. 3. Personal bests (within 2 years).....swimmers are handicapped based on their best recent performances. (this could make geek vs. gull II a real nail-biter)

  • Bring it on Mollie.....cash in hand...I'm ready for you!! no way man- even with a bum knee and all the applicable handicaps, you'd still smoke me. i don't enter into bets i know there's no chance in h*ll for me to win! Well, I'm sure you deserved the dishing or dissing or whatever she was allegedly doing. and as for the dishing/dissing at worlds, all i did was call paul a troublemaker. cause he was the forum troublemaker du jour right before worlds. but it's the troublemakers who keep life fun around here, right everyone? ;)
