BlacknGold Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 3 hours ago, Fadzaev2 said: How about Lee is in the finals because he won 10-10 criteria. 3 hours ago, Idaho said: They really messed that one up ... they even raised Bartlett's hand when the official score had Lee as the winner. What a crap show! They announced Bartlett as the winner, raised his hand, and the commentators said Bartlett won. Maybe tie scores should go to overtime instead of this nonsense. I don't care who won, this was just a mistake on their part that caused confusion. Congrats Nick Lee for making the finals 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don't we need to wait a few years? Because Dake beat a 1X Champ in Taylor, Steiber beat the kid that took 3 and his win over Oliver was one of the most controversial we've seen. If Starocci beats...Gabe Arnold and he goes on to win 3 NCs, how much more impressive does that make it? You've read 4 of the 5 books and you've determined they're better...but there's still several chapters left. Hell, he could Wrestle 2 more years and end up with multiple more NCs in his weight. But suffice to say, if he beat O'Toole and Lewis, that'd be roughly on par with Dake, Yianni, Cael(in terms of who we built, I'm not talking about who's actually better...because as I've said, I'd have 3 timers ahead of at least one 4X Champ.

Wait...are you saying Penn State is a good team and...if I read your post correctly, they'll be a really good team next year? LOL...so what? You're not breaking news here Woodward. @CHROMEBIRD I think his post was kinda joking...maybe even poking a little fun at Lee(maybe I'm wrong here) and the situation, or at least the interest in it. How does that manifest in "Penn State is better than you?" Which, again, for clarification, we know. And Jesus is better than Muhammed. We've got the order straight now, right?
