2005 NA's Someone got 69'd?

[Rob B]

Heard a good sailor got into it onshore w/someone and got 69'd. What's the scoop? Are we brawlers now?

GROSS MISCONDUCT
For a competitor to be protested under Rule 69, the 2005-2008 rules state
that the "competitor may have allegedly committed a gross breach of a rule,
good manners or sportsmanship, or may have brought the sport into
disrepute…." While the complete details surrounding a Rule 69 protest at
the 2005 Laser North Americans are not available, it is known that 2005 US
Sailing Team Member Andrew Casey was disqualified under Rule 69. Casey, who
is on the US team in the Finn class, was apparently involved in a
disruption on land after the races.

Are you speaking in English. What does "apparently, was just a real jerk store" mean?

 

[WestCoast]

Seinfeld reference. "The Jerk Store is calling....."

and etc.

means he wasn't being very nice...........

I know Andy Casey personally. He used to sail in d12 with us when he was at CofC. He is a great guy but likes to party HARD!!! I have a feeling that is where this all started....
