  1. And if TNT does the ducking against ISU, does that make it Duck a l'Orange?

  2. What was the point of this titillating little bit of journalism? She wasn't calling out a particular professor, or even a particular school, but all of higher education. The message was "Parents beware. Send your kids off to college and they will turn into a liberal monster." While this guest may not be representative of all conservatives, Fox News is clearly entrenched in the conservative side of the biased news spectrum and they decided to give her her 15 minutes of fame. Bashing higher education for turning kids into liberals is not a new taking point for the right I don't understand what this accomplishes for conservatives. I personally had very few instances of professors mentioning anything political, and certainly nothing akin to brainwashing. If someone changes their views while listening to a professor a few hours a week, they probably didn't hold those views close to begin with.

  3. Not sure if everyone is aware but I do a show once in a while (probably about once a week). Anyway, just passing along. Here's this week's: CKLV Preview, ISU-Iowa, and Buchanan

  4. @ILLINIWrestlingBlog hypothetically speaking, what NILs are available for a 2x AA interested in moving back to the midwest and how long until Braunagel can get back to 184?

  5. I was confident Starocci would AA even after he got tossed to his back 2x by Donnell Washington. Got dumped on by a good number of haters on the old board, but sure enough, he's now a 2-time NCAA champ.

  6. I think he is 20 if I remember correctly..... so their next NCAA champ could come in 2029 if he gets all of his shirts in order.

  9. All that influx of cash to Flo and their product is still sketch. Must have been used to pay for houses, cabins, and cars. Maybe some hookers and blow, too. Regardless, doesn't appear there was enough left over to make a top-notch streaming product at a reasonable price point, with reasonable subscription terms. Now, instead of putting the customer first, they strong arm their customers into annual subscriptions for a sub-par product. ESPN+, B1G+, etc. appear to be destined to take over their market. Damn shame. When they were working hard for it, they used to have a bright future. Now their product mostly sucks rocks.

  11. Well . . . to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, and of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter from various differentiated perspectives and without condemning another's perspective but still trying to be objective and disinterested in my analysis, and by considering each and every sound argument, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say.

  14. Plus it doesn't make a lot of sense situationally. "hey while your competing to win a starting spot at 133, do you mind losing 8 pounds to cover a dual? it will seriously undermine your long term goals but we don't like cyclones!" "Sure! Can I keep the spot?" "No its gonna go to Lee without a wrestle off, what do you want us to look like idiots?" It only makes sense if Lee is done.

  15. I'm crying because Stephen Colbert doesn't make me all tinglingly in my no no place? I have less use for him than I do you. I'd have to have feelings to cry. To be clear, I'm pretty sure I know which way SC voted.

  18. I think he would have been allowed to compete based on your first point. But there is a catch with the five matches on RS rule - it only applies to freshman (which is a bit odd)

  23. Or the professors made too much sense to allow the student's original views to continue to hold sway. Facts, as they say, have a known liberal bias.

  28. Charlie Heller was also in that bracket, better credentials than Potokar going 4-2-3 at NCAA. Hummel went 2-4-4 losing to Reiss in '80 NCAA final and Reiss was also in the '82 177 bracket. Hummel was also a very tough matchup for Mark Schultz. In '81 he beat Schultz in '81 Big 8 finals, then lost to him in NCAA semi in OT. In '82 he lost to Schultz in Big 8 final in OT, and then again in NCAA semi 2-1.

  29. 133, 149, 157 and 174 all have a lot of depth. A bit surprising to see Cole Mattin pull the 1 seed at 141.

  35. Now that you mention it, how about 1982 177 pound bracket ....one of the most epic matches of all time Mark Schultz.....3 time NCAA Champion Olympic Champion and 2 time World Champion vs. Ed Banach ......3 time NCAA Champion as well as Olympic Champion. Also in the weight...Jim Scherr Nebraska NCAA Champion and 2 time world silver medalist, Perry Hummel ISU NCAA 4-4-4 and Ed Potokar Ohio State NCAA 8-3 with 151 wins

  37. I wasn't paying attention, did she tell us what her major in college was or what her career path is? Hopefully it's something innocuous like fashion or interior design. Imagine if you're going in for brain surgery and she's holding the scalpel? Scary. The repeal of The Fairness Doctrine certainly hasn't helped this. I'm always amazed when I keep hearing the phrase "liberal media". Obviously, there is a spectrum of right to left in our media, but ultimately all the biggies, including ABC, NBC, CBS, most large print media, etc. are at the heart of very large corporations primarily owned by rich guys. As such they are big fans of the tax breaks and corporate welfare implemented by the Right. Simple enough for me. I've watched some old Johnny Carson reruns lately and am amazed by how he used to criticize and make fun of our political leaders of all stripes back then. Most everybody was laughing. Contrast that with the Dixie Chicks vs Bush2 fiasco, and it's only gotten much worse. I guess Joni Mitchell, Barry McGuire, etc wouldn't do very well today. Nobody would dare play their music.

  39. Well, I guess positive relationships between wrestling countries when the remainder of those countries are globally at odds is not such a big deal after all. But, I'll still take the open respect between Iran and US wrestling. Wrestling is doing what Olympic sports were designed to do, bring countries together for positive competition. Even chess can't claim to be doing that.

  41. Sounds like they weren't using the Flo software mat side but we're just broadcasting. Possibly scoring remotely.
