Has a high school ever had a better big 3 than McCort?

Where TF did they come from? That is insane. Legitimately zero holes. - Today

Look at ROI on this. It's a losing proposition. Instead of targeting actual criminals and doing real police work, we're going after people who arguably are a huge part of the economy. Now we spend money to hire, equip, train and operate the ICE guys, and they go arrest guys selling corn on the street. Then what? We have to pay more money to detain, house, feed and give this person legal counsel and we have to pay for all of that, then the costs to convene a court hearing, then if they get removed we have to pay for that too. I don't know the exact figures, but to me that seems like a net loser. The alternative is to stick to what Biden was doing which was to prioritize and target criminals who are involved with drug trafficking and other serious crimes. Unless you think being present and working here without authorization is worth the effort to do all of that. Most importantly, what do we as citizens gain from it? Nobody seems to be able to answer this.

They are very good for sure, but as you pointed out not even top in their state this year. Faith also lost to Wyoming Sem, so at best, they were 3rd in the country THIS YEAR. Even though high school wrestling is getting better and better, being 3rd or lower in your current year kinda disqualifies you from being best all time. -
Northern Illinios is leaving the MAC in all sports - headed to the Mountain West for football and the rest of their sports are finding a home in the Summit League so I don't think this is in anyway a concern about the future of the MAC wrestling

And ICE's budget is now greater than that of the US Marine Corps. I'd like to tighten up the border as much as most anyone. But c'mon. We don't have endless billions to spend. Many billions are already spent controlling the southern border. We could do with less ICE guys raiding Home Depot parking lots, farms, golf courses, hotels, etc. unjustly arresting non-illegal aliens because they have a quota to fill. We don't need a secret, masked police force that is controlled by the White House and is independent of all conventional law enforcement efforts and practices/policies. That is a super expensive way to not help at all. We're going in the wrong direction here.

But you're completely missing the bigger picture here. When someone has a wide variety of high-level skills, doors are opened. That doesn't mean any kind of guaranteed success. It simply means there are potential opportunities. Until he tried - he can't know if he can be successful in boxing. Until he tried - he can't know if he can be successful in the WWE. Until he tried - he can't know if he can be successful in the NFL. Until he tried - he can't know if he can be successful in MMA. How about bowling? Maybe shotput or hammer throw? Frisbee golf? My point is simply that nobody should be bagging on a guy who has skills and opportunities and is willing to seek out what is best for him. Don't pretend to know what he can or can't do. You don't know. He's finding that out on his own - and good for him. -

On the contrary, we're still jesting (perhaps you missed that.) I'm a wandering nomad. The bohemian lifestyle is meant for me. From time to time, I perform plays of Shakespeare, and I always deliver. In my circles, I'm what would be considered influential. I might even be as self-important as you. -
So chasing down and spending time and resources to go after people who don't commit crimes and otherwise just work and contribute to the economy is a good thing?

San Diego State dropped in 1981 but added it back in 1992 and dropped again in 1994. Somebody who shall not be named was I think their last and possibly only All American.

Biden increased the deportations his last two years. Here is a chart showing removals each quarter. Q1 2021 was the last quarter of Trump's first term. The rest of them are Biden.

Washington State had wrestling - they dropped it after the 1986 season.

I am reading too much into this or should we be worried about the future of MAC wrestling? Northern Illinois is a core member of the MAC in all of its sports as far as I can tell so that seems a little troubling to me that they are leaving their home conference (as opposed to like an SIU Edwardsville who is affiliate only in wrestling (just using them as example) On the bright side, I would have to think that another addition to the PAC 12 is coming soon because I can't imagine a school just leaving an their home AQ conference to go to a non-AQ conference without some assurances that there are plans in place to keep the AQ.

Maybe come up with our own ideas and not steal them from the liberal media.

Illegals don’t have to sign up for Medicaid or anything else. They walk in the hospital emergency room and taxpayers pay it. Or more likely, it gets added to the debt. Typical of dimocrats, they’re shutting down the gov’t over spending money they don’t have for something the people don’t want. -
