MOLESKIN:
– Okay, it did look good and paper and honestly, I think it was good in real life. I’d rather set the bar high more so than low. Just make sure the high setting is within reason. Great work by all! I think Kojak did 4+ rounds. Great work Kojak!! I think most got a full 3 rounds. Duly noted, 20 merkin pull throughs is a lot and it was tough, and 20 getups is a lot and it was touch, but that’s the high bar. Much better than setting it low. I heard some chatter, not a whole lot. Either the suck was so bad no one could muster much chatter, or everyone was being nice
