If you were actually reading the posts in the thread, you'd be familiar with and be able to follow the conversation. You are a sad example of who not to be on a message board.

But seriously @Husker_Du If you want interview of the year. If there were ever, ever, everrrr one we would just sit back and go "woah..."

Just want to add - you all saw Taz was running arm bar turns, right? He behaves like a 74 with American finesse. Whatever happened previously is out the window - Sad is going 92 permanently. This dude is a Russian Taylor and I want to hold out hope, but we might be looking at a king's reign... @Husker_Du I would be genuinely interested if you could pull some major strings pre-worlds to bring on a certain Stillwater citizen for insight and understanding that none of us will ever, EVER, posses. I know that is a MAJOR ask, and if you tell me to hit the zoo I respect it. But as a wrestling fan, it would genuinely mean a lot.

To start, I also think the quarter century team is dumb, especially when the majority of guys wrestled at multiple weight classes during their careers and there is picking and choosing regarding which weights guys are being considered. That being said.. I would 100% pick Askren over Pendleton. 4x Finalist, 2x Undefeated National Champion, 2x Hodge winner, most pins in NCAA wrestling this quarter century, and he absolutely dominated his junior and senior years.

Because they were already over there.. Do you really think we're sending one of the Koontz brothers to represent the USA in FS?

I was curious if he was Brian's son. Brian graduated a year ahead of me in Washington. I remember him wrestling a tight match with J.O. in the Fargo finals. Jason, I don't know how you have room in that brain of yours for all of the random wrestling facts you possess. Truly remarkable. Thanks for all that you do.

Brian Owen’s (apostrophe S) son Cam Jones’ kid won As did Mocco’s (beating Josh Etu’s son)

Why would we send this team to face Russia Looks like Russia sent better guys

Hating on people because of where they’re from or what they look like? That’s not free speech - that’s just plain ignorance wrapped in a flag. Maybe the American school system just totally dropped the ball when it came to teaching folks like you what "freedom" actually means. Some of your comments sound like you typed them from a cave with no Wi-Fi. Makes me wonder what you’re even doing with all the freedom and opportunity the U.S. gives you.

POSTED ON JULY 21, 2025 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN BARACK OBAMA, HILLARY CLINTON, OBAMA ADMINISTRATION SCANDALS HILLARY, OBAMA AND THE FBI: RUSSIAN INTELLIGENCE SPEAKS Today the Senate Judiciary Committee released a tranche of documents relating to the FBI’s investigation of the Hillary Clinton bathroom-server scandal. Remember that? This is how the committee’s press release begins: So until now, these materials have been classified, apparently to avoid embarrassment to the Democratic Party. The truth, as reflected in the now-declassified documents, seems worse than that. I haven’t tried to fully analyze the new documents, but this memo is intensely interesting. It relates to Russian-language documents, apparently originating with Russian intelligence services: “In a 1 the | brought to the attention of the FBI Cyber Division two Russian-language documents that mentioned Attorney General Loretta Lynch. These documents were identified in the "Post-8 data" and were translated into English by an FBI linguist. Both documents appear to be reports discussing purported communications between Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who was at the time the Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), and two different individuals who worked for the Open Society Foundations, a family of offices and foundations created by George Soros. The FBI later determined that the would have likely obtained any communications underlying the two reports (if such communications in fact existed) through a cyber intrusion into the Atlantic Council, a private think tank. The first report is dated and the verbatim translation states in relevant part:” That is already noteworthy. But now, buckle your seat belt for the Russian communications: The first report is dated and the verbatim translation states in relevant part: Recent information appearing in the media about the FBI investigating possible facts of corruption connected with the State Department [under Clinton] and the granting of preferences to Clinton Fund donors created a negative reaction within the party, though this Information was known to Democratic Party leaders since June 2015, According to Wassermann Schultz [sic], so far the FBI does not have any hard evidence against Hillary Clinton because data was removed from the mall servers just in time. Obama is not in the mood to mar the very final segment of his presidency, his legacy with a scandal around a leading nominee for the [D]emocratic [P]arty. To deal with this he is using Attorney General Loretta Lynch to mount a pressure on FBI [D]irector James Comey, Alas, so far, with no concrete results, Comey is leaning more to [R]epublicans, and most likely he will be dragging this investigation until the presidential elections; in order to effectively undermine the chances for the [Democratic Party] to win in the presidential elections... The second Russian document: The second I report is dated verbatim translation states in relevant part: By way of forming a consensus relative to the candidacy of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, leading the Democratic Party (DP), sanctioned use of all administrative levers to remove possibly negative effects of the FBI Investigation of the business of the Clinton Foundation and the email correspondence of the State Department. Based upon information from Wassermann Schultz [sic], the FBI does not anticipate any kind of direct evidence against Clinton, as there was timely deletion from the email servers. The political director of the Hillary Clinton staff, Amanda Renteria [PH], regularly receives information from Loretta Lynch of the Department of Justice, on the plans and intentions of the FBI. Active work is being done on clarification mostly with potential witnesses: the primary witnesses are a number of computer specialists in the Clinton private circle. They represent the only tools which may be used in this matter. Therefore, the threat is minimal.... So, to recap: “So far the FBI does not have any hard evidence against Hillary Clinton because data was removed from the mail servers just in time.” That, ostensibly from then-DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Then: “Obama is not in the mood to mar the very final segment of his presidency, his legacy with a scandal around a leading nominee for the [D]emocratic [P]arty. To deal with this he is using Attorney General Loretta Lynch to mount a pressure on FBI [D]irector James Comey.” And how about this: “The political director of the Hillary Clinton staff, Amanda Renteria [PH], regularly receives information from Loretta Lynch of the Department of Justice, on the plans and intentions of the FBI.” Remember the famous meeting between Loretta Lynch and Bill Clinton on an airport tarmac? The word “bombshell” is promiscuously used these days, often regarding developments that are modest at best. But these documents, on their face, deserve that characterization. Russian intelligence, of course, is not the word of God. But this wouldn’t be the first time that we learned about nefarious actions of the Obama administration through intercepted Russian intelligence communications. This deserves very aggressive follow-up. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2025/07/hillary-obama-and-the-fbi-russian-intelligence-speaks.php

Recently saw the PSU football season ticket prices. I was surprised to see a "mandatory contribution" for almost all season ticket prices that represents 20-50% of the total price. Is this standard practice in college football? My instinct is to think this is either a tactic to get fans to pay a higher price by making 20-50% of the purchase price tax deductible or it's an attempt to artificially move gameday ticket revenue to donations. It is my understanding that under the house settlement ticket revenue is included in the revenue share, but not donations.

Illegal aliens committing grand larceny… should have been deported long before they shot someone. The political people that enacted these sanctuary city laws should be sued and held civilly liable for this crime.

If you shoot somebody and you aren't sent to prison for years, unless it was self defense or something, then whoever prosecuted the case laid an egg.

Sure lol Hunter Biden has joined White House meetings as he stays close to the president post-debate While he is regularly at the White House residence and events, it's unusual for the president's son to be in and around meetings his father is having with his team. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna159975 Joe Biden is taking advice from his son, Hunter. This does not inspire confidence https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/jul/02/joe-biden-is-taking-advice-from-his-son-hunter-this-does-not-inspire-confidence

8 times for grand larceny in just 6 or 8 months boss. You are being silly here. These are clearly violent criminals who just shot someone.

For those interested, I put some of the more notable NIL things (dropped programs, Title IX lawsuits, etc.) in a section in my (mostly) Daily Wrestling Newsletter. It’s free, sign up at: https://mattalkonline.substack.com For those unfamiliar, I scour the web for news from around the world, linking to them and saving wrestling junkies hours of time searching for news (but likely taking up more time by reading)

Did he ever hold an official position during his father's presidency?

This thing was put together last week, so promotion was pretty limited as a result.

Because they do things that aren't a big deal. I helped get a guy a green card once who had a DUI. He was facing removal, but we were able to get the removal order vacated and he ended up getting his green card a few months later. There's lots of others who do extraordinarily stupid things that are relatively minor and wouldn't warrant a deportation. For example, disorderly conduct. That's such a catchall for doing anything in public the police or somebody else don't like. Shouting too loudly could be considered disorderly conduct. People get arrested for things like that frequently. Does that mean somebody should be deported over it? I'd rather deport serious criminals who commit violent crimes.

I was disappointed to see Yianni and Rob Koll visit the WH with (not all of) the other NCAA champions and take a photo with Trump. Same reaction when Vito went over to Trump after winning his second NCAA tournament. Neither of them were "blue collar" raised, nor from a rural area (Rochester and Long Island? Ha!).
