Marcus Blaze, HS kid, can be on the national team at two different weights if he beats Brock Hardy (or Hardy doesn't show up) for the true 3rd match.

Your sand pyramid dream feels like a Sisyphean struggle. Did you catch reruns of The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin or The Lone Ranger in the ‘60s? I used to watch Western reruns (80s) with my dad, and quicksand was a classic trap.

Kish doing everything he can to not recruit Oklahoma HS kids. Bold strategy.

I still remember first seeing him in San Diego '79. Someone in our group said- How are you supposed to wrestle THAT?

In elementary school, I would dream I was climbing a sand pyramid and as I get 2/3rds of the way up I start sinking and the sand try's to envelope me. I lived across the street from a forging plant making truck parts where huge hammers would pond in rhythm through the night in the 60's. Would wake up before being swallowed by the sand. Wow I just had a thought. No matter how hard you try there are some things you just cant reach.

Best work advice I ever received was probably "Don't let other people's piss poor performance affect your performance." Close second "Work is like a stage...every time you come through those doors it's show time; however, if you aren't ready or can't perform stay home...that is way better than showing up and not performing to your best ability"...not sure why that one stuck with me but it did.

This right here has been the single most…umm…revealing…aspect of this thread for me.

straight out of Final Destination

A successful salesman from Pennsylvania was offered a promising job in the Midwest but hesitated, gripped by fear of failure. He confided in his father, expressing his worry that he might get fired and fail to provide for his family. His father calmly asked, "What’s the worst that could happen? You’d move into our basement, regroup, and be back on your feet within a year. Go for it." Reassured by this perspective, the salesman found the courage to take the risk and pursue the opportunity. This eventual SR VP shared his personal story with me in a small group setting at work. "What's the worse that could happen" is now stressed in my family with big decisions.

Looks like angry GWN is back...tick tick tick until he gets banned again...

Taco from the league is great.

My most memorable and scary dream that I had a lot as a kid but only every once in a while now is watching a plane crash, and waking up super scared/stressed. Now I have started dreaming that I am in a plane that feels like it is going to crash and somehow doesn't.

Seriously...what is wrong with you??

I just hope we aren't too late for it to really create a positive for schools to have the sport - both men and women. Right now, Flag Football has added 78 women's teams in just a year across all divisions. NFL behind it. That's actual money pushing it. That's going to be the sport we have to contend with when it comes to adding programs - at the Division I level, adding programs at the P4 level for any sport probably isn't going to happen.

As a kid, I had recurring dreams of fleeing a bear in a dark forest, always escaping but waking up scared, heart pounding. I’m not sure what caused them... maybe watching Jason or Freddy too young. The fear stuck with me, making the memory vivid. Now, I rarely remember my dreams. Speaking of dreams... did you ever watch What Dreams May Come (1998) with Robin Williams?

Lisa Moralless: Who wouldn't?

I’m not tracking too close on commits flipping but this is at least two. Losing James hurt big time, Torres not so much.

Depends what % of the crowd is PSU/NLWC fans. But TBH, he kinda deserves to be booed IMO. Just maybe not to the extent some NLWC fans treated Jordan Burroughs (who of course has never been arrested to my knowledge)

"Don't ever call me a TACO." - Don T. Wonder if Trudeau is eating Melania's taco?

How many has VTech lost this year? As an NC State guy, I should be a little happy... but I like to keep the ACC strong and my wife is a former Hokie. (Not to mention Tony Robie's recent selfless act)

Losing Torres sucks, especially to Iowa. He lost to Weader recently so maybe he was concerned he wouldn’t likely start at VT

What a wonderful picture. Thank you for sharing.
