Thay maybe one of the worst calls I have seen all year. Maybe in the last 5 years.

He was flatter than a Truax.

Woods played around too much early, gassed out late. Lemley hella impressive late.

I got Lewan winning by tech fall.

Thomas Sowell says things in 2016 that are more true today. If you want to know how a libertarian-conservative thinks about issues... It is astonishing that some people think that the answer to the problems of Obamacare is to go to a “single-payer” system. But “single payer” is another way to say “government monopoly.” Does anyone notice how government monopolies operate — from the local DMV to Veterans Administration hospitals? Politics has turned the lofty ideal of equality into the ugly reality of resentment of other people’s achievements — and a feeling that the world owes you something while you owe nobody anything. The political Left’s hatred of Donald Trump is ironic because both he and they have the same pattern of automatically demonizing those who disagree with their views rather than confronting opposing arguments with hard evidence or convincing logic. If the media seriously wanted to report the news — instead of spinning it — they could stop calling rioters “protesters” and stop calling terrorists “militants.” Letter from a reader: “The socialists want to take the ‘sting’ out of poverty. They don’t understand that it’s the ‘sting’ that got everyone I know out of poverty and not a minimum wage.” Have we reached the ultimate stage of absurdity where some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, while other people are not held responsible for what they themselves are doing today? Any decent human being can sympathize with the plight of Middle East refugees. But other refugees have been helped in their own part of the world — with money, food, medicine, and other things, in settings more compatible with their own way of life, rather than being brought across an ocean to a country that neither fits them nor which they fit in. Have you ever encountered even one human being — whether in person, in print, or in the broadcast media — who denied climate change? If not, why do you suppose zealots for the catastrophic “global warming” theory want laws passed to punish “climate-change deniers”? Is it because they are losing the battle of evidence on “global warming” and need to shut up others? One of the mysteries of the ages is why the political Left has, for centuries, lavished so much attention on the well-being of criminals and paid so little attention to their victims. The monumental tragedies of the 20th century — a worldwide Great Depression, two devastating World Wars, the Holocaust, famines killing millions in the Soviet Union, and tens of millions in China — should leave us with a sobering sense of the threats to any society. But this generation’s ignorance of history leaves them free to be frivolous — until the next catastrophe strikes and catches them completely by surprise.

Lewan is like intermission, but with team points for it.

Starting at 125, Lightweight U. trails 10-0.

maybe. Penn State really doesn't need any help winning this match. So far I'm very impressed with the young Buckeyes.

Welcome to the forum Mr/Mrs Davis

For all the grief people give Ohio State about their bottom wrestling, Kilkeary and Bouzakis just got right out from bottom from two fantastic top wrestlers

no its just a dumbass ref who froze up when it was time to make a big call and then backed himself up for reasons i would call moral cowardice.

Are the refs actually that inept? I mean missing it live is bad, but watching it again and making the wrong call is embarrassing.

Even more than being good, he's unconventional, exciting, and must-watch wrestling.

Randolph's Friday agenda. 4:45-6:00 Gym (leg day). Sauna. 6:10- Home. Pour drink. (Thinking Russell's Reserve and Remus) 6:30-8:00- Watch the dual and stay off this damn forum while remembering the Bucks are facing potentially the greatest NCAA team ever and they can only get better going up against the best. I'll talk to you dudes soon but after 6:30 IM OUT.

He looked a lot a bit stuck

he was flat! call the pin!

Not picking kade to beat Daton by any means but I think this match is going to have a lot of really fun exchanges and I fully expect to see both guys try and hit an inside trip or 3

As a side note 22241 is the zip code for Arlington, Virginia

1:00 MT smart trainer bike workout 4:00 double check that fly posted the schedule correct 4:30 check to make sure OhieS/PSU, ISU/WVU, ASU/OSU, IA/Mi all on record 5:00 pickleball ~7:00 watch IA/MI from beginning FF till live 8:30 watch tape delay first three meets oh ... and stay off the boards and hope wife doesn't want to watch anything

It's still early in his career at Little Rock, but Neil Erisman has to be rising up the ranks with the job he is doing there.

you guys remember last summer when all the libs on here denied soft on crime policies and offenders getting out on the streets immediately? surely those same people don't deny that now, correct?

I'm a huge Penn State homer but even I can admit Davis was taken down and probably gave up 2 back points in the final session. That was DEFINITELY home cooking there for Davis.

I have been loving the Friday Night BTN lineup. Its been excellent. And getting a MAC dual on Thursday nights as an appetizer

I'm excited for Brands post match presser.

Appreciate Michigan letting off the gas, lol.

That's a blow out for Lewan.

man can't wait for Iowa PSU next week!

That IS a tech fall in Will Lewan's book.

Iowa is down 10-0. Lemly just got arrested for assault and battery on Real Woods.

That is definitely something we can all agree on

WHAT!? Holy caboley... and Woods looked a little bit stuck.

Zadick should have scored there

ma'am your opinion has been registered you can move on.

These refs suk!!! And I don’t care who wins but clueless

That’s the worst no takedown I’ve ever seen in my life. What do they want him to do? Obviously there is reaction time but that doesn’t consist of 6 seconds to roll around and try to escape and get out of bottom…. horrible. I don’t care for the Mendez call but at least it’s close.

Why even wrestle—the ref should just give Penn State the meet.

That's an easy three...

Gonna be a fun weekend, let's go!

Yeah, if my college was about to take on Penn State in wrestling I'd have an "upset" stomach as well. Try some Pepto Bismol.

I've already started. I hope to be asleep by 6:30... @ionel, I pickleballed at 9:30...

It was a JV tourney.... 106 lbs ....11th/12th place match if I remember correctly.

https://www.hoover.org/profiles/thomas-sowell for those that don’t know of Thomas Sowell here’s a bit about him.

Some of the ones that didn't become officials, became posters...

MAC: Tom Borrelli *He has been good for a very long time, producing individuals and good teams!

Because his school is never a real threat, nobody hates him and everybody loves him. He's been really good for a really long time, and that's pretty impressive and makes no enemies.

Beard portals back to Penn State to fill 197 for next season

With PSU less than two months away from losing two three time champs, I thought we could take a look at what the landscape currently looks like for guys who can make a three legged stool with their trophies. I think everyone is generally familiar with this: A while back I dabbled with the idea of eras in college wrestling. After spending a little time with the historical rules I came up with something that divided our history into four eras based on a combination of how many weights, All-Americans per weight, and the importance of individual first place in team scoring. That looks like this: Combining the two we get a breakdown of three time champs per era (I maintained the sort order based on all eras combined): Fourth Era (1979 - present, 10 weights, 8 AA's, first place < 30% of placement): It is Iowa's world, we all just live in it... For now (cough, PSU, cough). But PSU will fall farther back this year as two three timers become two four timers. OK State matters. Screw you Fresno State. Three three-timers in the modern era and you drop wrestling? For shame. Current three timers who WILL become four timers: Carter "StarRocky" Starocci, Aaron "Amen" Brooks Current two timers who WILL become three timers: Keegan "O'Funky" O'Toole

There is a chance PSU only loses two guys going into next year and will have SVN back, I hardly think that's cause for a punt season. The way they've stacked the recruits on top of each other I'd say there isn't a chance for a punt for at least 5-6 years.
