    Could happen today?

    And on the women's side of the comp, I added wild card Bethany Hamilton to my 'team' - - hope she tears it up, what a story she has lived.

    Yes, she has. And she is not done living it yet.
    I wish her well. She deserves it, imho. She shows a lot of inner strength.

    Just saw something about her being a wildcard. She is a bad chick!

    Saw a clip of her free surfing, yah, she is one bad chica on a board....as Slater stated, how would it be if we all had to surf with only one arm?
    Gutsy!

    This thread made me chuckle (agreed on Bethany's achievements BTW).

    Last week you made a noob cry. This week you're gushing over 'Soul Surfer'.
    I'm just waiting on 'tard stating his love for Alana.

    I love you. Really.

    Just listened to his post heat interview. Hes off the CT, that was his last heat.
    He wants to help at risk youth's in Hawaii... Good for him, Maybe he can open a son of followers charter out there. haha

    Nice guy but I am not digging that strategy...and he wins the heat outright and had priority when trying to interfere...just weird. His family seems stoked and he seemed pretty humble in interview. I guess going out on top (with a 10 and a heat win) is pretty cool. Someone will benefit from him pulling out
