In Response To: Re: MARTIROSYAN Tigran 69 kg (sjaak smorenburg)

Thank you VERY MUCH for posting this picture of tigran.

We in the Armenian community are VERY proud of how aweseome our weightlifters are doing and how great they have done at the 07 and 08 europeans. This year we got 13 (!!!!) gold metals in the final count. I find it very interesting that no one is really talking about how great the Armenians are doing in America.

Unfortunatly beautiful hripsime bombed out on the snatch, but did she withdraw from the meet??? NO!!! she won the clean and jerk with 141 kg beating Russian Natalia Zabolotnaya on body weight. that is pretty damn amazing. It makes me so proud to see the flag on the podium I want to cry. It has been soo long since we have had great weighlifters fufill their potential and bring our country recognition.
How about some pics of Meline, Nazik and Hripsime?

Here is an article that someone mailed to me, taken from the Armenian Reporter, that i thought i would share.
