Cool vid. In hindsight wooot No idea why they stopped watching him. -
I remember the good old days when Biden wasn’t any where near responsible for the crazy rising costs. Good times. We were being big bad meanies to him if I remember correctly.

Christian Pyles most disingenuous take.

the flo bros are heavily susceptible to every form of bias no matter how shallow. Take away the hodge's, stylistic influence, olympian status....all those dorks would vote for him just because he had funny hair. -
It's really bad. People are jumping out of there 5th story windows on wall street and across the country. Just go straight to the corner bar and order a double shot.

As we’re getting closer to being one month out from the debut of RAF 01, the organization’s first card continues to take shape. On Friday afternoon, another match on the organization’s initial offering was announced. It will pit Evan Wick against Jason Nolf. Wick was last seen at Final X as he lost in two straight bouts to Levi Haines in the 79 kg matchup. About a month and a half prior, Wick posted one of the biggest wins of his international career when he captured a title at the US Open. In the finals, he downed the newly minted NCAA champion, Dean Hamiti. In college, Wick competed for Wisconsin and Cal Poly. He earned NCAA All-American honors on three occasions and was a NWCA First-Team All-American after the 2020 national tournament was cancelled. Wick finished third in the nation as a senior (and freshman) and held the #1 seed at the 2022 NCAA Championships. Nolf had an incredible career at Penn State, where he captured an NCAA title in each of his final three years in State College. The only blemish on his record during those final three years came via injury default. Three times during his career, Nolf maintained a bonus-point percentage over 87%. Nolf has never made a Senior World or Olympic Team, but he’s wrestled in the series to determine the representative on three occasions. Each time, he was defeated by Nittany Lion Wrestling Club teammate Kyle Dake. At the 2024 Olympic Team Trials, Nolf defeated Jordan Burroughs before getting a shot at Dake. After the Olympic Trials, Nolf announced he was retiring from wrestling to pursue a career in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. This bout will take place at 175 lbs. There was also tragic news on the RAF front yesterday as pro wrestling legend and one of RAF’s founders and the Commissioner, Hulk Hogan, passed away at 71 years old. With the addition of the Wick/Nolf bout, the RAF 01 currently looks like this: Matt Ramos vs. Nathan Tomasello (135 lbs) Real Woods vs. Darrion Caldwell (145 lbs) Austin Gomez vs. Lance Palmer (155 lbs) Sarah Hildebrandt vs. Zeltzin Hernandez Guerra (120 lbs) Kennedy Blades vs. Alejandra Rivera Arriaga (150 lbs) Kyle Dake vs. Aeoden Sinclair (190 lbs) Evan Wick vs. Jason Nolf (175 lbs) Bo Nickal vs. Jacob Cardenas (205 lbs) Yianni Diakomihalis vs. Bajrang Punia (155 lbs)

Yeah they're both great wrestlers. Can't go wrong with either. The original quarter century team is for NCAA wrestling so you can't factor in international. I mean honestly its cool that two of the top picks for that weight overlapped at all. -

Meme Coin Ramifications
Wrestleknownothing replied to ThreePointTakedown's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Digital only. Which narrows down the audience to only those foolish enough to play that game. Many people buy these knowing full well they are rug pulls, but believe they can get the timing right themselves and make a quick buck. The site where the coin was traded was even called Pump.fun no one who goes there should have any misgivings about what is happening. That is not to say Askren should have done this. I would not have. But these things happen among a self-selected universe of people who are looking for a get rich quick scheme. -
All Sun Belt teams have opted into or rather not opted out of revenue sharing. The VA law limits mandatory student fees to 55% of the athletic budget. JMU was way above that. I think they got on some schedule to come into compliance after joining the Sun Belt Conference. Not sure if that has happened, but if SCORE is a total prohibition then I'm sure they are nowhere near compliance. Large fees to subsidize intercollegiate athletics is more of a Virginia thing than a Sun Belt conference thing. Even some schools without FBS programs do it. Below is a table from of the fee breakdown at VA public schools from a couple years ago. The amount of athletic spending from student fees at UVA and VT are subject to a lower limit of something like 20 or 25%. You're right I was wrong about the deductibility of the mandatory contribution. I suppose the only benefit to not just charging the ticket price would be to juke the the numbers for the revenue share. Of the schools I looked at Wisconsin was unique in that they referred to it as a recommended contribution. I wonder how likely you are to get tickets if you opt out of that recommendation and it the slightly different language would make it deductible.

I was impressed that Erfan was competitive with Yoshida because I think yoshida is the 4th best guy in the world right now.

Are you saying prices in 2025 rose a little bit after they rose by a huge amount the preceding 4 years? Great chart to show the truth of the situation. Notice how the charts pretty much stabilize toward the end. Indictment of Trump for sure. If he is to blame for stabilizing prices, who is to blame for having them rise so much? mspart

I don't know much about him. He won Asian juniors, but we have a long, long list of wrestlers who won junior worlds, let alone junior Asians, around that weight class and went nowhere at the senior level. Many of them even won it dominantly. Azarpira is probably lucky he avoided the curse by never winning junior worlds. It will either be him or Yousefi, I think. Or maybe Hosseini who came second at 71kg at 2023 cadet worlds. He came second to Shamsipour at the junior trials. That is the only somewhat similar name to what is listed that would make sense, but is still a different name.

He’s gonna pardon Joe Biden this time in a freak turn of events. It turns out they’re in cahoots together.
