I suspect there's a certain Walter Mittyish aspect to that website...

I'm not arguing. I'm explaining why I'm right.

The thing that strikes me the most about the website is the large team supposedly in place to help him achieve his aims of getting to Rio. Robert Scheidt has come back with probably less of a support staff. The world has got decidedly weird if with natural talent you could not do better than he is doing with no coach and travelling to the events yourself with the boat on you back. Team GBR probably have a similar support structure over an entire class of sailors.

Did someone say that our chum was the number two Irish Laser sailor? The skill of sailing is transferable from class to class so I am not sure those results prove much.

So what if he's never won anything? In a previous sporting existence I never actually won either, but I was never worse than second.
Mind you, I gave up boxing a long time ago...  Edited by Sheetpuller - 09 Apr 14 at 11:26am |

See http://www.trofeoprincesasofia.org/en/default/laregata/vertodoslosresultados/id/1/idsc2r/29 Our hero is currently in 121st ... James ESPEY is 24th ... So he is 2nd best IRL at that event ... Espey need to watch his back ... |

Aren't we missing something? If he's the second best IRL Laser sailor, then he does stand a fighting chance of going to Rio...the best guy might get sick, retire, believe the hype or something...or one of the members of the Medal Gang might be a contract killer.

Depends a)How bright he is and b) What his star sign is as to wether I could help him or not, but I bet I could move him at least half way up the fleet with a few tactical suggestions coupled to the odd grubby trick and if he doesn't already understand the lee bow effect then he really has no place in a big fleet has he?
