Good news / bad news? They had a rough 8 year stretch from 2016 - 2024 where they underperformed each year. But they snapped back nicely in 2025, beating their average seed by 1.1 spots

Seems weird that a mouthpiece can help prevent concussions, but I believe you. How about padding the headgear on top so creampuffs like Meyer Shapiro aren't bleeding out from their scalp every other match?

No. Only 75% of refs are obese fatasses, 100% of the guys in this forum are fat

I’d say that the idea is to help prevent concussions even though there is no true evidence that it either helps or doesn’t yet. I can say from personal experience, I used to get 1-2 concussions a year for a few years in HS/College. I started to wear a mouthpiece and have never had one since. I’d never wrestle without one again.

How dare you mock the Baconator!

You guys should've seen the referee who was a teacher at my old middle school. That fat bastard was about 6'4" and was well over 4 bills and reffed a few of our duals. He was so worried about being partial to our team that he went out of the way to make all the calls go against us! Naturally he was never hired again after that season. His son was a third teamer on our squad.

I can already smell an impressive reek of failure and it hasn't even started yet!

Virginia Tech 125: Eddie Ventresca 133: Dillon Campbell 141: Tom Crook 149: Caleb Henson 157: Ethen Miller 165: Mac Church 174: Gage Wright 184: Jaden Bullock 197: Sonny Sasso 285: Jim Mullen

The only really dumb rule change is requiring mouthpieces for wrestlers. It's not like wrestlers are getting punched in the mouth constantly like boxers or getting jacked in the mouth by offensive linemen firing off the ball. Sure, on rare occasions the mouthpiece might help (I wrestled over 300 wrestling matches, a lot against real brutes, and never sustained a dental injury on the mat), but 99% of the time all it's going to do is at least partially impede a wrestler's breathing, especially if he has a damaged septum.

Interesting that none of those responses talked about trying to make it appeal to one side.

Yawn. Call me when they limit the entirety of the review period to 2 minutes or less.

How? Edit: I imagine 2023-24 will be a medical.

Kurt McHenry in the portal!

The irony will be quite something if Gable was cut from pro wrestling, then pro wrestlers make a move into olympic wrestling where he was anointed The Chosen One but he doesn't participate because he pursued other opportunities. I'm very supportive of a person pursuing what they choose rather than what is chosen for them/ what others think is best vicariously but that doesn't change the narrative.

Resegeregate?

Incoming 5 seed at NCAAs.

"between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty." - Likud Party Platform (Majority party in Israel) “And therefore I clarify that in any other arrangement, in the future, the state of Israel has to control the entire area from the river to the sea.” - Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel

Difficult to really understand why your completely logical line of thought is too difficult to comprehend, let alone follow.

That's how it should be.

you teach youth wrestlers , when you report to scores table be ready to wrestle head gear on mouth guard in shoes taped so, at the end of the match just keep everything on , shake hands walk off the mat

I predict this lasts as long as the last season of his reality show did. The one that caused his daughter to basically hate him and his wife to divorce him.

From what river to what sea?

I get that but by the way this is written, if a headgear falls off and you slide it out of the way, you get an unsportsmanlike? That's about the only scenario where I have seen a wrestler slide anything. Of course they may do away with headgear.

Yep I'm up now. Wouldn't mind another 5 to 10% correction just to re-invest. Maybe rv will make that happen again with his doom & gloom forecast.
