I'm glad someone else has noticed this obvious infraction of the rules.I have been informed that this individual was recently allowed to join a team with less then 8 weeks remaining to the CUP. I hope that Team Jersey Shore complains as loud as they should, they are in a good position to hold on this year and they are on the verge of being cheated out of it.

If OTW can profit from letting him in, then he's in.

Their tourney, their rules, they can break them if doing so benefits them.

What Clammer said, and the same for that striper killing fish wrapper.

Wasn't he in already by himself? How would otw profit more if he is on a team.? Just asking and not being a prick as I ask myself the same question in how did he end up on a team.

Just saying that nothing is out of the realm of possibility when it comes to OTW acting in its own best interest.

Even if he joins a team after the fact, then anything weighed in prior to you declaring a team should not count. Only fish caught going forward

Armchair anglers are now telling OTW how to run their tournament; once a fish is weighed in....anything weighed prior to club afiliation...

Keep em coming,it's the nature of the beast. At least the Cap of Team Stock ASSessment was forward enough to admit his team was granted the same privelege. Albeit in a different time frame.Proof that tournaments bring out the worst in people. I have NEVER been involved in a tournament where I have not seen cheating firsthand.

Go Clammah!

So you'll include yourself in the Armchair Anglers Symposium ?

I have never been involved in a Tournament you haven't had a quip against.

I have fished 5 in my lifetime.
The one in SoCo for the NPT club. (no quip)
The Red Top (no quip)
The Back Eddy ( no quip)
OTW, which I no longer partipate in (quips)
The Newport Club interclub (no quip)
I think you have been involved with at least three.
Nice try though.

Then you have my most humble apologies. It gets difficult to track what you've quipped and not quipped

I completely agree that OTW is not to blame for the lengths people will go to win what should be a fun thing... People ruin stuff... But if you can't fish in a tourney and enjoy the hunt because you are worried what other people are doing to try to win, that's your problem..
Let em cheat... I'll sleep at night... And if you happen to beat them despite their tactics... All the sweeter... Acting(?) like a clueless goog and watching them grit their teeth while they congratulate you? Priceless...;-)

I just made that up in jest based on the Dangler's post. Kinda catchy but the last word, starting with an S to keep the initials good, needs work.

Let us know when the Sgt Potts tourney is so we can get some word out. He was that police officer doing reserve duty when killed on duty in Iraq, right?
