Keep leaving Pat Downey off these lists. Show some respect.

In what way are you interpreting my Magic Man reference as meaning PD3?

Greco wrestling used to have such beautiful rhythm. Not anymore

It's a dumb expression and it's incorrect.

The only reason you think it's dumb is because you're not smart enough to understand it's meaning.

I would be very curious to know where the level of Greco is globally right now.  Has all greco gotten bad/cheap the way freestyle did during the ball grab era? Or has US greco just…done what US greco does…no offense intended to the athletes whatsoever.

[Threadkilla]

US greco has had 4 medals in 10 years.    I think 125 is our best chance of a medal.

I'm just sick of it.  Has become cliche.

Too many cows = too much horsing around

Should have focused on horsepower because that's exactly what Brooks brought today. He ran the gamut, got lucky with a wild thumb from Zahid, walked a mile on the dreadmill, and put it on Taylor. Pretty decent 48 hours.

This is the style worldwide. Winners are determined in par terre. Officials are so desperate to award points we now have the 2 point “correct throw” and 8 point tech falls.

I’m not sure I have answers, but I would start by changing the match format to one five minute period and start action on the feet with some sort of chest to chest contact.

I hate correct throws and slips. All crap. You get it done or you don't so why does greco in particular give participation trophies?

At any rate, congrats to Rau on becoming another Illinois olympian. Hopefully Ellis can get it done in Turkey and join the crew.

Whoa there Mr. Dake!  We all know!  Father time will not get you!

[Scouts Honor]

i remember my introduction to slip throw.

a guy who i know is going to hit it, tries, i counter it and put him down and begin to turn him a few times immediately

the ref stops us...i think i'm ahead.. and ask why no points on the board (this was in the 80's)

he says slip throw.

i just looked at him. what a bunch of horse hockey.

great headbutting here

130KG is freestyle's version of Sumo wrestling.  And, yes, this  image is disturbingly pornographic

Schultz looks gassed and over it

[bnwtwg]

Schultz needs to go on the Cassioppi plan and build back from a 50 pound cut. What an absolute waste of talent with his lack of discipline watching his tits flop when he was underneath. He should be the guy who breaks the drought but he can't put down the Banquet Beers.

[Powershouse]

How’d that work out for Cassioppi?

Well he didn't get worse - and he extended his life expectancy and reduced his chance of getting diabetes and heart disease
