No - that is not a separate issue/conversation at all. We're talking about the Qatar jet being "given" to the US and what a historic failure it is on so many levels: The current AF-1's are the best of the best in the air right now. No other jet in the world comes close. They are in great working order. The Qatar jet is garbage compared to the AF-1's currently in service A Qatar $400 million jet that costs $1B to upgrade to make usable is an incredibly dumb investment I have no doubt Trump advisors have made this clear to him. It has a shiny interior with a lot of use of gold - those with mush for brains like that. It won't be done in time for Trump to use it before the end of his term. It's a bad look for Trump to take sloppy seconds from Arab's "old" cast away planes Boeing contract for (2) AF-1 aircraft is still moving along and due within a few years No changes have been made. These will eliminate any use of the Qatar stand-in. (The stand-in that would cost $1B to upgrade.) Will be done within a year/two of the projected time frame of any dumb Qatar jet upgrade. There is no logical explanation for Qatar becoming AF-1. Zero. None. So what is actually going on here? You're hearing it here first. The Qatar jet becoming AF-1 is a lie. An outright lie. It is too incredibly stupid a move for even the Trump administration to try to make happen. Instead, Trump will soon announce he will be making the Qatar jet available for non-AF-1 government use. For other government departments and/or personnel. Oh wait, didn't WKN just mention Kristi Noem wants to spend $40 million for a new jet? Perfect spin, Trump "saves" the taxpayers $40 million by giving her his Qatar jet. If it's not exactly that, it will be very, very close. Politicians are nearly all criminals. And Trump is the biggest swamp criminal in the history of presidents.

That was AWLAYS the stipulation. Follow along. this was a two-prong debate. 1-He's arguing it's the physicality of a 22 year old vs that of an 18 year old that makes the difference, ergo, Ono won't have a problem. Not the development, not the technique, just the difference in age. 2-I've NEVER changed my position with regard to Ono...and it's so basic, I'm not sure how it's even up for debate. He's going to be fine on his feet...but Mat Wrestling is going to be an issue. I DON'T believe it's about age, I think Blaze, Forrest and Lillendahl could get out and Wrestle on the mat a helluva lot better than Ono. That's not a slight...he's Wrestled a different style his entire career. So one person is arguing Ono won't have a problem getting out due to...his age and physical maturity, the other is arguing he will because it's something he's NEVER had to do and now he's Wrestling the best in the world at it. I'd also point out, the same person said he'd be fine on top because of his Gut Wrench...which again, is objectively absurd for obvious reasons. The primary being...it's not legal in this style. The other being, you don't have a guy just laying on the mat, you have someone actually moving and trying to come up and you have to develop a series of moves on top, not just a gut. -

Ok, lets come up with the criteria? If he gives up a RT point this year WHILE TAKING DOWN, you lose. If he takes down and doesn't give up RT, I lose. Sure...we have a deal. 20, 50 bucks? -
I don't know... a lot of people are very literal about the Bible. I have an Uncle who...when I was trying to make sense of this Religion that I'd been taught all my life(I won't say indoctrinated, I would just say it's just what you did, you went to all the Lutheran stuff, it was just...something you had to do). But I was asking 'Ok, but you don't really believe someone lived for 3 days inside a Whale, right?" And he said "yup." And then I'd asked, 'ok, how about the part where you can sell your daughter into slavery if they disobey you,' and he started to justify slavery in certain situations ...and I just tapped out. I said I can wrap my head around these having messages and...all that, but if you mean all this is 100% literal, I think that's just too hard for me. But...that's what he...and many others believed.

I just think it's a poor decision...in most cases. In Wrestling, I think it's probably about as good of an area to be conservative and promote that than anywhere else. The sport absolutely skews to the right towards conservative Christian values. So looking at endorsement deals, I get it. I've worked in sales and now own a small business and there's absolutely no reason for me to put my name and political or religious views points out there for public consumption. The old Jordan, "Republicans buy sneakers too," comment. I mean... Jordan's opinions reached a billion people, maybe more. Mine reach...like 12, but still, seems like an overall good philosophy.

Snyder will not be given a delay, and from a PR perspective if he had the audacity to request that, it would sour even those most ardent in supporting his endeavor. Seeing as this is the superior board to the parallel-ride stalling board and poop-talking is discouraged, I'll say this: I have zero insight into his personal life, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say he's probably sleeping in a new bedroom. We are (mostly) all adults and have probably seen a friend/coworker/enemy on the rival dodgeball team go through infidelity on one side or the other. What usually happens? Typically two scenarios: 1) Everything stops for the philanderer. Everything. Reasons vary, but this is the most common outcome if the partner chooses to proceed. Results... vary... 2) Everything is poured into work because the partner chooses to move on after betrayal and the philanderer has a sole focus when nothing else is left. If 1 then Snyder's done. No more medals. He may compete, but I'm calling it. He still belongs on Mt. Rushmore. If 2, then 2026 world champ incoming and it will be from Stillwater. This has been your daily dose of USAWTMZ.

There certainly are a lot of chasers on here.

Yes I mentioned this in my OP. I’m honestly kinda surprised that MAGA folk don’t seem to care about this guy, but I guess they’re consistent about not caring about non-citizens (except for white South Africans for some reason). In reality, this guy is a better example for the left to use but many of them may not care about him either since he was a MAGA guy. Supposedly this guy has never been accused of any crimes other than not filling out one form, and reportedly was even told in 2024 that “nothing is outstanding at this time.”

Uh the school has a benedictine abbey on site. There are plenty of reasons for a non catholic to go to a catholic school but it's not just a catholic school for nostalgia, that place literally houses a bunch of monks. It's as Catholic as they come.

I honesly dont see Vito makiing 57 kg again and im starting to think that Yianni’s days may be done at 65kg Vito can be successful at 65kg. The year he won the world title he beat a guy at worlds who teched Nick Lee thay same year at 65kg. If he csn toss on another 6 or 7 lbs even (says he walks arounr at 142) i think he wiol be ok.

Well...he's only got the one kidney left. If my kid needs one, he's pretty much screwed at this point. -
idk, if you have a guy who you can ink in as a 3x champ and no reason to mess with it. Duke is 5’6” 70kg is 154 lbs he has to lose about 6 lbs to make it. I dont see him getting much bigger but could see Kasak continuing to ballloon up to 174. i don’t necessarily agree with the idea that MM needs to wrestle 174 in order to be successful at 74kg (163 lbs). Takatani said he weighed 163 lbs after his match with Dake and pretty much walks around at that weight. Dake was cutting hard you are right and he hasnt looked good at all doing it compared to when he was at 79kg. 2026 157- PJ duke Kasak RS 165 MM 174 Haines 2027 157 PJ Duke 165 MM (senior) 174 Kasak

Pro Hamas terrorists in the USA killing Israeli embassy staff now
Caveira replied to Caveira's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Stolen from another poster (Jimmy speaks) but posting the deets here for you to see sir Viking. In response to the Palestinians electing a pro terrorist government …… ~~~~~~~~ Seventy-two percent of respondents said they believed the Hamas decision to launch the cross-border rampage in southern Israel was "correct" That’s in reference to the Oct 7 attack I believe. So 72% of the people believed Oct 7 was good. So. Let them ride boss. You chose your game. Now let’s play it out to the end. -
Real Woods is the real deal but I have real concerns
bnwtwg replied to Truzzcat's topic in International Wrestling
If you didn't specify Michigan then this would read as basically any Euro world champion. The only ones with a gas tank used as a weapon in recent memory would be Sidakov, Sadulaev, Taz, and prime Uguev (that feels disrespectful to say). Maybe Ann Arbor is focused on a data-driven model of superior technique>cardio or maybe there is cold spray in the water. -
I wrote this in another thread but if I’m Dake, it’s a sumo match. Yes, that makes me feel dirty. Dake can beat Zahid if he can keep it close the first three minutes and scores some 1pt moves in the second period. Zahid was falling apart at the end of their previous match. His tank continues to be very suspect. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
