Hopefully Nick gets the B. He earned the spot on the team.

Re: So who is on the World Champs team?
Let me preface what i'm about to say with...i am a huge Brad Walker fan.....i wish he made a spot on the team, but he didnt.
Nick Mossburg earned a spot on the team......he is allowed until(insert date here) to try to achieve the B standard...if he does not achieve it, the athlete that finished 4th should go
if we are going to place someone on the team that did not clear a height at the "trials" for the world championships....lets put someone on the team with A standard experience (not that Brad doesnt...I'm trying to make a point.) Hell.... how about Tim Mack. Maybe he could bring his Gold medal and show all the guys, that would probably impress them....If he is busy that week How about Toby, Fresh off his honeymoon, He could crack out the silver....good for some OOOHS and AHHHS from the guys, Hell its not Gold, but still impressive, right?
I was at the OTC last week when Brad jumped 19-2....it was damn impressive.....he put at least a foot on the bar. Mossburg beat the odds and won a spot on the team...Congrats Nick, now go out and get the B standard......If you dont though, I have Macks cell number....just sayin.
