The Blind Tangerine are updated to reflect the rolling off of last year's Pig. SLOC results from this past weekend must need to be properly soaked in orange juice or other citrine based acids and then posted on the web before they can be incorporated. The grammar are slightly off and nobody knows why. There were no Tangerina changes or dispositions. There were much action amongst the more manly Tangerinos however, with John Fredrickson losing his top 10 visitation rights, and Kenny Walker vaulting up to assume John's #7 spot. Sensing the possibilities, Boris "the spider" Granovskiy opportunistically slipped up and past Jon Torrance to take up Kenny's old #9 spot.

Complete citrine standings can, as always, be perused at: The Blind Tangerine For best viewings, configure your browser to accept lime squeezings or zest of lemon skin.

I really do think that my time from the pig sprint should count toward the tangerine, even though I was running my age group and not the young fellers course. I fought my way through attack badgers and chest high mud to get that result just like everyone else. No matter what category I was in, I think I diserve it.

If the Blind Tangerine were run by a Commissioner, knowing what upstanding folks Commissioners are, then I would expect your argument would be looked on favorably. But the BT is run by a ... well, it sure ain't a Commissioner, so don't hold your breath.....

Mr. Joe, if you didn't get sprint points for your sprint race, you should probably file an appeal with the sprint commissars. Write a long brief with lots of complicated adverbs and dependent clauses! I don't know whether good luck or a good lawyer will get you further in that quest.

Of course sprint races aren't nearly tart enough for The Blind Tangerine, and don't get figured in. Why eat bananas when you could squeeze limes instead!

my mistake. I thought the Alabame sprint counted. too bad they don't count though as us old farts fair quite well. must be all the track workouts.

Hmm. Track workouts.... Maybe that would help me move into the revered 89 point tangerino pack...
