Campbell Wrestling is about to cut their program
nhs67 replied to TNwrestling's topic in College Wrestling
This would be ample opportunity for someone young, who might be able to swing a big stick. Think a 'Michael Kemerer' or 'Hayden Hidlay' type guy. Someone who could 'slink' back and become a top assistant somewhere else, were the program to be cut. -
White Conservatives are the biggest threat

I think Scout is only capable of reading and repeating what he sees on Twitter. That explains why he doesn't make a lot of sense usually. -
B-2's are 2.2 billion dollars each and the bombs are 4 million each. I'm sure we could find some retired B-2 pilots who would like to run a few missions. That takes America out of the loop then. Isreal can do the clean up after the bombs are dropped. No American soldiers or planes would be involved in the mission then. Except for the retired Pilots. We could buy the Bombers back at some point.

Penn State, Ohio State - sex abuse problems

I'm sure he got his arse beat a few times during that stretch. No way he molested 200 people without getting his face smashed in. -
ESPN is reporting this is his second speeding ticket in the past month. Also has a 91 in a 65. He missed a court date for that one on Monday. Does missing the court date suspend his license at least until paid? https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45545248/browns-shedeur-sanders-cited-twice-month-speeding

How many of the 356 teams on Bo's list were really in the running? He wants to keep options open and probably is curious about different schools, e.g. campus and facilities. No one knows how long the real list is. It could be three, or it could be just one. Even if it is just one, there is no reason to commit now anyway. Let's go with opening probabilities of 70/20/10, UI, OSU, PSU.

What’s the Best Piece of Advice You’ve Ever Received?

GWN, thank you for providing examples that show while perfect is ideal, done is often better in practice. -

Huge loss for Campbell and wrestlers. With the uncertainty of the program it will be a hard sell for coach coming in. -
Lung transplants are super tough. They have the worst 10 year survival rates out of all solid organ transplants.

What’s the Best Piece of Advice You’ve Ever Received?
GreatWhiteNorth replied to jross's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Why do you continue to post like such a dumb a**? You think posters here don't speak some french or can't translate via Google and see you are a FRAUD? Le mieux est l'ennemi du bien = The best is the enemy of the good Le mieux est le mortel ennemi du bien = The best is the mortal enemy of the good Striving to better, oft we mar what's well = Trying to do better, we sometimes break what is good To go too far is as bad as to fall short = Find the balance between too far and not far enough The (4) bulleted items you listed are, in no way equivalent to your far-too-basic BS phrase "done is better than perfect." Every one of the items in the bulleted list are either something different, or something more. You're reaching and failing badly. "Done is better than perfect" is wrong every single time. (Whatever happened to you stating it once and letting it stand? You changed your rule because your statement is dumb? Sounds right.) The phrase I've used is basically the same as the first two on the bulleted list - "Perfect is the enemy of done." (Not my words, I heard them on one of my favorite podcasts.) If you're trying to get your trash can to the sidewalk on trash day - Done will suffice. Perfection isn't needed. Maybe best to get the cart out and not worry about a straight line or how fast you do it or if a bit spills out. You can fix that in the morning. How about a kid using crayons in a coloring book? Done is just fine. Perfect isn't needed. It'll go on the fridge and look just fine. Let's talk about mowing the lawn. Never cut more than 1/2 the height of the current grass. Always overlap every pass to not leave any grass uncut. Mulch when is appropriate, bag when is appropriate. Change mower engine oil and air filter and sharpen blade every season. Scrape underside of mower between each and every use. Mow only in the evening to allow the grass to recover before summer heat... (and there's far, far more.) ...Or maybe just do the best you can as time allows and call it good. Doesn't need to be Perfect. In all these examples above, why would you insist on perfection when 'good enough' is just fine. Finish it and call it done. Indeed, Perfect is the enemy of done. Sometimes it is advisable to settle for less than perfect. But is it true that "Done is better than perfect?" No - not at all. Never. You are 100% wrong. It is a universal truth that Perfect is the best we can do. Done is never better than perfect. That obviously doesn't mean there isn't room for both. -
I'm saying that you're too lazy to click the links on your own posts. (I chose 'lazy' because it is nicer than 'stupid.') Save your "king" speech for someone else. I don't care one wit about it. (And, from reading your post here - you need some time to improve it. It's crazy dumb as it stands. Do much better.)

Penn State, Ohio State - sex abuse problems
wrestle87 replied to AgaveMaria's topic in College Wrestling
In many schools there is a lot of stigma around being the dumb kids who are only there because they got in the easy way, and the athlete's only lifeline to legitimacy on campus is through their sporting endeavors. "In exchange for being a good part of our team, we give you this education in exchange" sort of a thing. Obviously it's not universal, but it is very common. -

That's just insane. He's...EASILY the greatest actor of this generation. I don't know why his style of preparing for a role would detract from it, but remember when he tapped his plastic eye with that sharp knife? That was a thin layer and he had to train himself to keep his eye open. That's just ONE of dozens of anecdotes that sticks out that adds so much to role. The dude's weird, he's EASILY the greatest actor in history IMO. At LEAST the last 30 years. Has he been in a bad role? I don't think you can find a list without DDL near the top if not at the top of greatest actors EVER. Tom Cruise was great... before he just basically took the same role in every movie the last 30 years(A Few Good Men was great for example...though even there, that was just the non-action lawyer role which he then meshed with the firm and then went to over the top action movies...which is fine, but I can't get past the scientology stuff). Anyway, he's not in the same group as Daniel Day Lewis. More people have seen Tom Cruise movies, they've been ore successful, though if that's the metric, the sister in the Godfather, Adriana in Rocky would be one of the "top" Female actors of all-time and Harrison Ford would be the "best" Male star of all-time.
