Over/Under on Senior World Medals

[Hilton Head Joe]

Sad and Snyder are now old men. Yes they are good enough to make their teams, but I like Snyders chances now that they are older more so. Taz is in his prime and I see no one getting him for a few years. So no more golds for Snyder unless we have a Varner situation where Yazdani blows out knee but it is possible. Spencer is our only Gold in my opinion.

Hardly think Snyder is a lock this year

As previously mentioned, the degenerate in me will take that action. Name your wager

They are in their very late 20s/early 30s. I think your early 30s are still prime, especially at this heavy of a weight class. I think mid 30s can still be prime for 125/130 kg.

He is a lock for bronze or silver, depending on whether he is on the same half as Sadulaev or not. Learn to read.

Fair point!  I will read better.  Still feel he is far from a lock though.  To many recent losses.  Glad for your optimism.

I agree with you mostly on the age for most people. It is just Sad and Snyder have been banging at the highest level since 14. Sad was a phenom like Kyle very young. I think their primes were 21-25. That sounds odd but let's see how they do. Kyle's and Sad's best days are over. But with the right bracket they are still good enough to win Gold!

Taking 4 and the under isn't crazy. Assuming you'd get a push if it lands on 4 that's a lot of medalists. There's a world where Spencer is our only medalist (there's also like 6 guys who are going to win some matches and very well could end up with a bronze).
