  1. Past hour
  2. I remember watching Eric Medina from Blair Academy and thought he was going to be a STUD. Pretty sure at one point he was a Maryland commit, like so many: Never panned out at the next level.
  3. Beat The Streets Newark is seeking to fill multiple paid slots with partner high schools. The schools in question have agreed to provide a point person in-building to take care of administration and paperwork, the new hires would strictly need to run the wrestling portion of the respective programs. Generous stipend available. Contact Harry Turner at hturner@sbp.org or visit www.btsnewark.org for more details.
  4. Unbelievable that two people died in the same arena on the same day...terrible!
  5. Phew...but again they don't make any money from ticket sales anyway.
  6. Today
  7. Not as many Seniors compete at Fargo these days. I think it gives a much better idea to pull them out for HS rankings after NHSCAs for US Open and Fargo. Get recruiting class rankings done earlier. I am an absolute FLO fan but MATSCOUTS HS rankings are lightyears better. Just not their strongest area and Bray seems like a great dude, not knocking him its not an easy task.
  8. Not sure about Kadiev's origin I assume Dagestan but otherwise most of Russia's better young guys are Chechen currently.

  10. She didn’t keep the diary when it happened. There’s no indication of how old she was. And there’s definitely no indication they had sex, as you claim.
  11. I will guess he isn't actually from Hormozgan. Vahabian who just came second at cadet worlds at 71kg represents Gilan but is from Mazandaran. Not 100% but I will assume he is from elsewhere.
  12. Imagine if someone offered something at a much deeper level including breakdowns by initiation by side, defensive measures, second per move, seconds per adjustment and/ or reattach, and much more for the senior team free of charge if the tape could be provided. Yep. Just imagine. Unrelated but has anyone noticed all the ghosts recently?
  13. So peaceful. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-military-preparing-national-guard-activation-washington-dc-officials-say-2025-08-11/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=twitter
  14. You picked 2018 which had 2 AAs that both didn’t place in 22 ( Red and Eierman) and Perry was basically a .500 career wrestler and Lee placed both years..I think Lee, Seabass, Woods Alirez and Micic definitely place in 2018 bracket and I’d like Composto and Matthews chances against the R12 losers from that year as well …those 2009 and 2015 brackets are a different story
  15. He’ll always have a job as a fluffer
  16. Trump stopped the NWO. Wokeism has been slowed to a halt. Commies are,pissed.
  17. Use must be very uninformed. He brokered a peace deals between AZE and Armenia. Cambodia and Thailand, India and Pakistan and the Abraham Accords. There are others, but you get the point.
  18. Are you saying this for real or are you joking? Please don’t tell me you’re serious.
  19. Hamid Sourian, Takhti, Dabir - all Olympic champs, all from Tehran. And then Olympic medalists like Molaghasemi, Naser Givehchi, Mojtabavi, Khojastehpour, Seyfpour, Sanatkaran, Ali Akbar Heydari, Alireza Heydari, SeyedAbbasi, Abbas Jadidi ....
  20. Headline: 'Progressive snowflake era' over as Hollywood studios abandon woke programming. Looks like wokester wingers like rv may be on their way out.
  21. Wrestling as a whole might be the national sport of the country but like Russia other sports are far more popular and widespread. Football is very widespread and everyone plays it and follows it. The only other sport I think has mass appeal is volleyball and even then that is hyper focussed in the West Azerbaijan and Golestan provinces. Urmia the capital city of West Azerbaijan province is essentially Volleyball's Jouybar. The vast majority of top talent in Iran have come from one city in one province. Going back to wrestling, absolutely Persian's do wrestle think the Geraei's, Khadem's, Hamid Sourian etc and more recently Gholamreza Farrokhi, Abbas Ebrahimzadeh, Amir Ali Azarpira. It's just that if you want to be a top tier wrestler the likelihood of achieving that in Freestyle and not being from Mazandaran is incredibly low. Every suburb has at least one wrestling gym with top tier coaches and pretty much every kid wrestles. You would have more chance of doing so in Greco which Mazani's don't really do. Wrestling isn't really one ethnic groups' sport pretty much every ethnic group in the country has some form of wrestling. Whether that's Kurd's (Azimi), Bakhtiari's (Mirzazadeh, Esmaeili), Mazani's (Yazdani's, Ghasempour), Baloch, Turkmen etc. It just so happens that in certain regions greater investment and development has been done to translate their wrestling style into olympic styles so that's why Bakhtiari's in Khuzestan pretty much all do Greco and Mazani's pretty much only freestyle. Of course there are exceptions to that rule such as Saravi and Ghasem Rezaei but for the most part they don't really mix styles. Ethno-linguistic identity is quite complex in Iran as most of the ethnic groups mix together and are far less socially isolated nowadays. So even the term Persian is quite ambiguous as it more or less includes everyone but Arabs, Kurds, Baloch, Armenians/Assyrian/Chaldean and Turkic groups (Turkmen, Azeri etc). However, even then I imagine that is up for discussion and debate as well. Of course those who are more knowledgeable on this topic can also chime in and correct me but I think that's a relatively accurate assessment.
  22. Didn’t Kurt Angle only weigh 209 when he won his title?
