I have been missing for a while. First I had neck issues, then knee issues, then a cold, then persistent caughing from yelling too much in competitions,
and as I was just getting better from all that, Dylan Bethel slammed on to me a dozen times in the NAC and left my right shoulder as a mangled mess. I am hoping it will get better in a week, but right now it is in no condition to fence. We can't really blame Dylan for this, since the ref apparently had never heard of a yellow card, or calling halt pretty much for any action at all until a light came, Dylan decided he would just run into me at top speed over and over and then score any touch afterwards. My compaints to the ref fell into deaf ears (and feeble mind) as usual, leaving me both defeated and crippled. Needless to say I was pretty angry afterwards, especially because the last time I fenced Dylan I beat him 15-7, but I figured I'll have my chance soon enough. I have to say, though, that was by far the worst reffing I had been exposed to for a while. That in combination with Dylan's willingness to take advantage of the situation made things down right dangerous.
