In Response To: Re: Message to Minnesota USAPL Lifters - State Rec (Jason Burnell)

First, Madvig had NOTHING TO DO with the IPF eliminated the 97 and 114 pound weight class. Was it illegal or against the rules to "erase" those records? No. Would I have done it? no.

Second, do think that Madvig intentionally omitted Ms. Anderson from the meet results? No. Is Madvig the most meticulous person to keep track of records? No. Is there probably somebody who could do a better job? Yes. However, is there anybody who works harder or has worked harder in the USAPL in MN for the last 10 years? NO. I've been to 80% of them over the last 10 years. NOBODY HAS. THAT IS A FACT.

Third, I heard from 3 USAPL members/officials from MN, NONE OF WHICH WERE MADVIG AND ONE OF WHICH IS MITCH'S FRIEND , that the records, were NOT BEING kept properly AND TIMELY by Ms. Anderson. Hence, the reason, she is no longer doing them. PERHAPS ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE LYING TO ME? I don't know.

Fourth, Members, including me, just have a problem the way she went around "AIRING" the problem especially the "look how much hard work" I put into volunteer work. Especially when she has ONLY volunteered and helped @ one local meet in MN.

Finally, out of respect to Mitch, I and several others I personally know, have bite our tongues and not said anything for a long time. Everybody likes and respect Mitch. He is a class act. But
people are just sick of the behind the scenes drama and other BS and the accusations that Madvig did something intentional just to mess with Ms. Anderson.
