Maroulis going on Mat B right now against Turkiye

Woods coming out HOT again; crazy sequence The score currently says 3 - 2 Woods on the scoreboard. The official thinks it's 5 - 2. We are only 25 seconds into the match

Woods up on Mat a... he leads 5-2 D3

... great minds think alike! D3

Kilty lost by criteria due to the 4 pt throw in the 1st. D3

Russia drops in on a leg to kill time and then evades Russia defeats Kilty 6-6 off a nifty counter for 4 early

Lot of wrestling on the edge but they end up grounded; no points 30 seconds left

Another TD Kilty; 6 -6 Russia on critera 1:36 left

TD Kilty; closes it to 6 - 4

That'll be the score at the break for Kilty; 6 - 2 Russia This is the deepest weight on the women's side and Kilty's side of the bracket is loaded too

Sujeet is tough. He battled Zain for the last chance spot last year.mm

TD Russia 6 - 2

Russia did a tricky thing; she was in on a single and Russia threw her for 4 but Kilty still held onto the single and finished 4 - 2 Russia

Macey Kilty is up on D

One more match on Mat A and then Real will be up for his 2nd repechage match. A win here, and he'll be wrestling for bronze. D3

She was... like a second Mother! (Mother-in-law jokes... DO NOT apply to her, here!) D3

for an in-law she must have been a lovely lady

I think some of that comes from Lee himself too though; the "I don't even want my silver medal" (I know that's not the exact quote but you get the point) vibe and response by him - as much as he's criticized on twitter and message boards . . . it feels like he's even harder on himself. That weight keeps piling up on him and I think it's making him worse. I will say personally there was a stretch where I wondered if his knees were at a point where he should hang'em up for long term functionality in life. I feel how he responds to these things publicly also opens the door for internet warriors to criticize him cause it now feels acceptable in a way. I think you are spot on that he needs a sports psychologist; it's one thing to have a loss motivate you but it feels like he never lets it go either - still carrying the HS DeSanto loss w/ him and just adding Ramos, Armenia, etc to it and that ain't good Just trying to share my thoughts as an neutral on Iowa (certainly not a Hawkeye fan but I did once wear an Iowa t-shirt to an Iowa/Penn St dual in Carver)

But years ago, my late mother-in-law used to supply me some Scottish Breakfast tea in my X-mas stocking. I like drinking that brew. I haven't seen them in the stores while food shopping, though. (Order online, I guess... ) D3
