We Are In Russia

June 29, 2009

Alright guys, I just got up from a nap. Zeb is still out like a bear. We landed in Moscow today and got picked up by my friend Tigran. If you remember I met him in St Petersburg last year on the last day of Russian Nationals. Tigran is great. He has provided us with a nice flat and has been very accomodating. He also got us some train tickets to Kazan where the tounrnament will be held. Tigran is very enthusiastic and knows everything about freestyle wrestling. He rattles of results and information about wrestlers from every country going back for many years. I will attatch the viseo from last year where Tigran does a prieview for us before the finals of the last three weight classes. Having Zeb with me is great. Last year I was anxious and on edge the entire trip. Being able to communicate with someone and knowing that someone else has an eye on you is comforting, esspecially in such a large populated place. Tigran has a massive wrestling video collection. He told me that he will make me some dvds to bring home. I will make sure and put them on the site. One dvd I am pumped about is a dvd with all Saitiev matches from many different tournaments. It will be nice because we will not see him wrestle at the Russian Nationals. Anyways, I am going to go walk around and see what is near by. I am pumped to go watch the tournamnet in a few days. Zeb will also be keeping you posted. Sorry if I was rambling too much, I am still very tired. In a minute I will try to upload some videos we made. Hope the internet speed is Ok.

This is gonna be the most best most awesomeest coverage ever... we already know it's immediately gonna be twice as good as last years coverage because they will get twice as many matches with the Z-Man, but I can't wait to see what kind of videos these 2 make over there...
