Hall is deceptively strong. IMAR didn't know what hit him on that toss early on, especially after his gesture. Caught him off guard. Usually a decent way to beat him.

And am I right that in 2012 hall would be going into his freshman year of high school whereas Martinez would be going into his junior year?

This match was in November 2012 so Hall was a frosh and IMar was a senior.
 
It was his twitter handle before Sully mentioned it here, I believe that hall quoted a sully post on twitter so he got some attention.

You are mistaken....I came up with it. Willie Saylor tweeted it. Within hours, Mark began using it.

I checked twitter and MH was using that handle for a long time prior to your post (I guess it's possible that once he changed his handle it changes all previous older tweets? If so, I stand corrected)

Yes, if you change your handle on twitter, it changes it on all prior tweets...

Give it up. Sullivan did it
 
It was his twitter handle before Sully mentioned it here, sully's post here was sent to hall by wille saylor, sully was famous for 15 minutes.


So not only does this fine gentleman land a plane in the Hudson he caused mark halls twitter to change????

We have some fine-fine posters on this site. Probably why the traffic doesn't die here...tic of course.

Ps - don't admit your not captain sully and ruin it everyone.
 
Wasn't Hall held back a year? Still impressive if true.

These days almost everyone is held back a year. IMar was born in September 1994, and Hall in January 1997 so IMar is 2 years 4 months older and 3 years ahead of Hall in terms of school year.

Wow, I was 23 months younger than Hall at my HS graduation.

I was 17 yrs, 7 months but I skipped a grade. It would have been nice to be held back if only to not look like I was 13 most of high school - that's not a big thing with the ladies. I grew about 4 inches and put on 30 pounds in about the last 6 months of my 17th year - that would have been nice for sports too.

Definitely something to factor in when it comes to sports. If a 17 year old senior is only slightly behind the 19 year old, take the 17 year old.

Note that Teasdale will turn 19 in late Oct of his senior year.

It would have been pretty cool to "legally" drink early in my Soph year of college

I turned 17 in May of my senior year and I didn't skip a grade. I was 5' and 105 lbs as a freshman in HS and grew to 6'1" /180 lbs by my senior year. It sucked not being of legal drinking age until May of my senior year at PSU.

It's pretty cool that Sullivan gets to participate in a small way in the history that Mark will create. It's similar to how Shaq has extra coolness from nicknaming a bunch of fellow NBA players and how Wheeler or Gell-Mann has extra coolness from naming a bunch of physics terms. Way to go, Sullivan!
