All Activity

A bunch of it is on youtube. The matches were great. The wrestlers were excited about the pay. The level of competitors is pretty high. Things I love: The team scoring gives individual's points to the team in a well thought out way. The team scoring really improves the amount of action and seems more accurate than traditional team scoring. The modified pushout rule (without the downed rule) is a great show of how well that will work out so other leagues might take it on. I don't see many major complaints on this thread. I would like to see more than five minutes of wrestling since the Championship Wrestling Association has them go for 9 minutes. I've seen more CWA matches than Claw so far. I don't have a preference yet. They're both really good. The pilon idea is exciting and adds more content to wrestling. The body-lock-for-overtime is a pushout-of-the-center-circle overtime. That may make it more appealing than it was in the past. The mat shape being a square means more wrestling area which is a plus. It lets people get cornered which will get interesting.

no just saying you aren't painting the complete picture

Again, so now what? You’ve given yourself a get out of conversation free card. You don’t want your opinions challenged. I get it. Then log off.

They are just starting preschool in the elementary schools in our school district and my wife's preschool is suffering as a result. She was able to hire a helper but no longer. Putting entrepreneurs out of a job. mspart

Tonight Kimmel will tell us about the MAGA-ness of the murderer in Dallas who killed a person sitting in a detention van. Dowd will tell us that the victim had to expect it due to his opinions. Many on the left will bemoan the murderer's lack of skill aiming like they did when a man was murdered in Butler, PA, and Trump was wounded.

Well you can critique the Senate but you can't say it is DEI. Because Senators are elected representatives based on a majority vote. when they vote federally, they are representing their majority of voters

Do the Hells Angels have a roster?

I've got to go, but I can come back and respond later.

PSU would certainly never recruit over a heavyweight and an assistant coach's dad would never recruit someone committed to another team.

If you think smugness equals winning then maybe, but based on merit that never happened.

Guess he isn't very confident in his wrestling or mma then. Weird... Chimaev was.

I’m sorry. As soon as you address my post adequately, including my question(s), then I’ll consider your questions.

You're the one dismissing perhaps THE core principle that defines America - that we have the freedom to advocate for political change! What core principle am I trying to change? The structure of the Senate is not a core principle. Removing the Senate does not eliminate the sharing of power between states and the federal government.

"compromise between the opposite pretensions of the LARGE and SMALL States"

WTF do you want to completely change a core principle in the country that so many foreigners want to join and so many "haters" refuse to leave?

Well, I'm critiquing the Senate specifically, so feel free to join that discussion whenever you please.

Im defending our current Republic not just the Senate. We have more than 2 representing each state and representation that goes across state lines.

See, right there you provided a direct quote about it relating to political compromise for states and nothing to do with demographic groups.

You're defending the Senate, which is 1 state, 2 vote. I'm opposing the Senate on the principle 1 man- 1 vote. Do you need every thing spelled out explicitly for you? I assumed you were an adult of at least average intelligence. I could be wrong though.

"There's no way a group of ragtag colonists could win independence from the greatest empire the world has ever seen." Crazy that I believe in America more than you do.

Quote me where I said that.

Federalism is not solely established through the Senate. It's established through the Constitution. The primary purpose of the Senate having 2 senators was exactly written for demographics - to balance the power between low population states and high population states. "The equality of representation in the Senate is another point, which, being evidently the result of compromise between the opposite pretensions of the large and the small States, does not call for much discussion. . . " James Madison, Federalist Paper 62.
