Yah, well you dumb wingers think that any liberal that damages anything is an " antifa member" so yah, in your eyes, they commit a lot of violence. Your premise is the basis for your conclusion. Pure stupidity. I can do the same thing for q Anon.

So, in the end there is no feasible solution to ever fixing this problem. The colleges will never lower there prices and the federal government (the taxpayer) will always continue bank rolling the loans with little or no restrictions. I think in the last go around 5.3 million borrowers received 188.8 billion dollars of loan forgiveness.

Wrestling to make our football players better
HokieDave87 replied to tryingtomakeusbetter's topic in High School Wrestling
Wrestlers are good at football because of leverage, movement, and mental toughness. Mostly the last one. There isn't one drill that you can just add in (maybe some hand fighting on the Dline?). It really takes a full season of training with a good wrestling coach to get the attributes you want to help football players. -
One for one.

There’s no interest in giving up hostages and peace. -
How long until VT becomes a top 3 program?
HokieDave87 replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
Both Bo and Melvin have seen what money is out there and committed to VT. Also, VT isn't poor they're still getting paid. Barring an issue with Bo's experience Melvin and Keegan will end up at VT. - Today

I will add that I think it is worth noting that if David Taylor did not exist Hassan Yazdani would be mentioned here and for that fact I think DT deserves a mention since he is 5-1 against him. He also has wins over Ghasempour,Hidlay,Zahid,Cox (in bo3 setting) 54-4 once he made his first team and wins over 4 previous or future world champs. I understand the Valencia and Hidlay wins were not peak version but they did both occur last year. Beating David and Kyle to me is the biggest feather in JB's cap I will not say he did not beat the best version of Kyle because I think Kyle would have won world titles if not for JB but I think its safer to say he never beat the best version of DT.

I think its Satiev but I would respect Khadartsev or Medved if that is your cup of tea.

My post was accurate.

Maybe they’ll stop terrorizing American cities boss. That’s what we voted for. Qanon isn’t terrorizing anyone. Almost Every week / every day there is a video of antifa burning some shit down somewhere. It’s been going on politically since the blac block or before. Enough is enough

Wow. How dumb can u be? Give them extra time in prison because they happened to possess an "antifa" flag when they committed the crime. In 2029 let's declare q Anon terrorists and let AOC decide what makes somebody a qanon member. I hope it happens and as many winger pigs get locked up as possible, based upon her opinion.

Ikr? Why can't it be more like other websites? Page loads. Accept all cookies? Or just the essential ones? Meanwhile, here's a random video that will auto-play and blare tangentially-related content (after an ad, of course). Scroll, scroll. Pop-up: Hey, enter your email address and sign up for our mailing list! We'll give you a 5% discount! Click around, scroll, click. Chatbox widget slides into the bottom corner of the screen: Can I help you with something? Oh, are you trying to login?

Truzzcat replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
very strong point. In all honesty I am not sure I have ever seen two guys develop like minto and Antrell. Antrell went 4-5 against d1 comp his redshirt year and most notably lost to alejandro herrera rondon who I thought was a slam dunk recruit but has not even been NQ caliber in college. -
This would be an awful way to do banking. The cost of servicing this loan would be so high they couldn't afford to make the loan. And what would happen after the first bad grade report? If the bank cuts off the student causing them to drop out then the bank has hurt their own position. There is no collateral on student loans. The whole point of these loans is that the government decides it is good to have educated citizens. No bank would ever make a loan like that, which is precisely why it requires government backing. There are a whole lot of simplistic takes on this thread. And there is a lot of hypocrisy. Anyone on this thread that has a conforming mortgage only gets the rate they get (lower) because the goverment, in the form of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, backs that mortgage. The government decided home ownership was good, just as it did for education, and so it subsidizes the activity with credit enhancements and tax breaks. And anyone who thinks banks are buying existing student loans does not understand banking. Private equity, private credit, and pension funds advised by private credit managers would be the buyers. They would pay pennies on the dollar for these loans. Remember that there is no collateral, meaning private credit funds will price in the expectation of large loses. The government will take large loses if it sells the portfolio of loans, even those that are performing. This is probably why they have not sold them yet. It may be cheaper to forgive some loans than to sell them all at a lose. Finally, the issue is not the students. The issue is the schools. The cost of higher education is inflated because the schools get paid up front. They take no loses when the student gets a worthless degree and fails to get a job. This is the very definition of moral hazard. The logical result is you get degree mills that have graduation rates below 10% and everyone taking loans. Unless, and until, the schools are made to bear risk this will keep happening. And for the dummies who want to make it about gender studies, or other dumb dog whistle crap, Nazarene Bible College has one of the top default rates among it's students at 13%. Meanwhile Harvard has a 0% default rate.

The transition from NIL to revenue sharing
CHROMEBIRD replied to CHROMEBIRD's topic in College Wrestling
Good point, although who knows with the Big Ten scoring a $2bil investment deal last week. I'm sure the other power conferences will follow. I assume the $5mil budget might be for non-football schools and maybe very blue-blooded bball programs like Duke, UK, and UConn where ADs would actually allocate a little more money away from football. A $3mil ceiling is probably closer to reality for most schools. Although the NCAA is essentially a pro league, it's still a dev system for the NBA, NFL, MLB, etc. so a fairer comparison in this case might be the G League (avg salary < $50k) or what lesser players in the EuroLeague make ($300k-$800k in USD). Feels like the college market is still figuring itself out. -

Indigenous People’s Day in honor of…
WrestlingRasta replied to headshuck's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
I don’t see in here anyone saying YOU need to celebrate one or the other. Likewise, I don’t see anyone saying YOU cannot celebrate one or the other. No need to get so defensive about accurate information. You’ll be okay. I do find interesting, however, the stance on just happen to ‘be born here’, and the celebration of foreigners making the trek to a different land. Veeerrrry interesting. -
Name any land that once wasn’t stolen from someone else. It’s like they forget how the world worked for thousands and thousands of years
- Yesterday

What about the people who had their land and liberty taken by these ‘indigenous’ guys? Columbus accomplished quite a feat, crossing the Atlantic Ocean like he did. Those indigenous were mostly just born here. Do we need to celebrate that - well, Happy Birthday.

“The Free Press” is not honest. It’s Israeli propaganda, that’s why it got bought by the Ellisons.
