    Ben shot all the time. I'll agree he didn't have the best shot or cleanest finishes, but he had enough to get his hands locked around a leg, and once he got there, he wasn't going to lose from that position. Ben knew that if he could just get in on a leg, he could create scramble situations that favored him. And what Ben did wasn't invent scrambling. Scrambling has always existed. What he did was turn what seemed like a spontaneous sequence of events into a calculated and technical aspect of wrestling. In the "Funky" flo film, he talked about a particular scramble situation (I want to say far ankle but I'm not sure) and off the top of his head he goes through "If I do A. he can either respond in 2 ways, if he does A. then I do this, if he does B., then I do this, then we end up in this position.." and so on. He is truly one of the greatest wrestling minds of all time IMO.

    Give me a good reason the Obama judge should block the release?

    Trump said Coca Cola was going to make coke with sugar. One week later, Coke made the announcement themselves. An example that negates your axiom. Therefore your axiom is incorrect. mspart

    Judge denies release of Jeffrey Epstein transcripts in Florida Geoffrey Berman, then the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, announces charges against Jeffrey Epstein on July 8, 2019, in New York City. A federal judge in Florida has denied a request to unseal grand jury transcripts from a separate Epstein case in Florida. A Florida federal judge on Wednesday denied a request to unseal grand jury transcripts of a federal investigation into disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. President Trump had called for the release of grand jury testimony related to Epstein, who was accused of sexually trafficking children, in response to pressure from lawmakers and some supporters to show more transparency with the case. U.S. District Judge Robin Rosenberg of Florida said in her ruling that 11th Circuit law does not permit her to grant the government's request and that her "hands are tied." https://www.npr.org/2025/07/23/nx-s1-5477567/jeffrey-epstein-transcripts-florida

    Pendleton was a beast. So fun to watch. I appreciated Askren's funk but its not like scrambles weren't awesome before Askren. And right or wrong I tend to associate Askren with the "bait ya until you shoot because I don't have any good shots myself" styles.

    More information about "Dake/Sinclair Added to RAF 01 Card"
    The RAF 01 card is starting to come together. The organization posted another matchup for their August 30th card, and it's an interesting bout. One of the most decorated wrestlers to sign with the organization will take on an up-and-coming talent as Kyle Dake takes on Aeoden Sinclair. Dake is a two-time Olympic bronze medalist, four-time world champion, and the only wrestler to win four collegiate national titles at four different weights. Just over a month ago, Dake fell in two-straight matches to Zahid Valencia in the 86 kg contest at Final X. It's the first time since 2017 that Dake has not appeared on the world or Olympic team. Sinclair was the #3 overall recruit in the high school Class of 2024 and signed with the University of Missouri. Even though he redshirted during the 2024-25 campaign, Sinclair did gain valuable experience in duals and tournaments. Sinclair’s most notable win came over Minnesota’s All-American and Big Ten champion Isaiah Salazar. Another solid victory came over veteran Zac Braunagel of Illinois. After the collegiate season, Sinclair made waves at the US Open where he made the finals of the U20 and Senior divisions. A few weeks later, at the U20 Trials, Sinclair won the challenge tournament and made it to the best-of-three finals against Minnesota All-American Max McEnellly. Sinclair won the first bout, but McEnelly swept the final two to clinch a spot on the world team. This will be an excellent test for Sinclair as it has the potential to be a current star against a future one. With the addition of this match, the RAF 01 card now 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) Bo Nickal vs. Jacob Cardenas (205 lbs) Yianni Diakomihalis vs. Bajrang Punia (155 lbs)

    Did Paul ever say he “paid it all”?

    I bet there would be more than a few people who complained if other teams followed Cleveland's example.

    The 2009 freestyle match was the year after Ben made the Olympic team. Chris had not been training the year before because he thought he was done competing. The argument that Ben was better than Pendleton relies on the assumption that Ben coincidentally jumped several levels immediately after Chris left. I think the freestyle match is good evidence against that assumption. Ben was always great. There were just two years where he didn't have to face Pendleton.

    He lies 10x more than all those people put together. He literally lies every single time he says something. Think about it. The report didn't conclude that there was any collusion between Trump and Russia so if any evidence was "manufactured," it sure couldn't have been much.

    If you you think Trump is less honest than Barry Hussain, Hilary, Bill, or Brain dead Biden you have poor judgment. It good that the majority of America is smart enough to dismiss the lying left for the frauds they are.

    LeBlanc grew up about an hour from Binghamton. He's done a fantastic job at The Citadel. If he wants this job, I hope he gets it.

    There is also a fake Amy Askren account:

    Heard on The Quad Pod that the finalists for this are Scott Green, Kellen Russell, and Ryan LeBlanc. I'd personally like to see Scott Green get this.

    Just a distraction from Trump's sexual assaults of little girls at Epstein Island.

    You keep referencing the win after college in freestyle. I think you're putting an awful lot of weight into a 2-1, 1-0 at a random open, Ben wrestling up a weight class, while he already had multiple MMA fights under his belt. That result being as close as it was doesn't really influence my opinion either way, especially considering that Ben would be the first to tell you that folk fit his wrestling style much better than free. I will just leave it at this, I think a match between SR Pendleton and SR Askren would probably be in my top 5 hypothetical matches that I would love to see play out.

    It's just like the Penn St petrol check and the Ohio St HBO special - a great big giant nothingburger.
