  1. For U23 it had always been Senior National team members had first dibs on the spot, followed by the U23 champion. This year it was changed in adding the 4th in line for seniors at the weight prior to U23 National Champ. Couple of notes: - Seems obvious but many have asked.:If Jax passes on taking the U23 spot, No..Marcus Blaze cannot accept both the 61kg and 65kg spots for U23. One or the other or neither. -All signs point to Marcus not taking either spot and focusing on winning a U20 World Gold Medal. Blaze earned a bronze last year losing to eventual U20 Gold medalist, and senior champion Ono in the semis 7-2. Rumorville has echoed that the Penn St staff prefers he does focus solely on the U20 Worlds and passes on both U23 spots. -If this is in fact true in regards to the coaches preference..it could be sign for things to come. I am very curious on which NLWC guys accept their U23 dibs on their weights. U23 Worlds runs much later than U20 and even senior worlds -U20s August 20th-24th -Senior’s September 13th-18th -U23’s October 22nd-26th -First official day of NCAA wrestling practice is October 10th, with the first day of competition being November 1st. If they prefer that Blaze does not do U23, it could very well hint that he will be starting at 133 as a true freshman while Ono red shirts. PJ Duke has showed a great interest in competing in all 3 world championships. When asked yesterday on his flo interview about this, he said it had to be discussed with his coaches and family, however he did not rule it out. Furthermore, Kozalk asked him if he would possibly be going to the ranking series coming up. Duke responded that he most likely would not be, and he would rather wrestle in another world championships than do the ranking series as he still hunting for his first world gold medal. So will be interesting to see which of the NLWC accept the U23 spots. MM did last year earning a bronze. Maybe the Penn State coaches prefer just the two freshman pass on it, especially since they’re already competing another world championships. Or maybe they let them decide and rumorville is BS. if they do prefer they pass it obviously isn’t because they don’t want them missing the week of practice… I’m sure it would be more so a concern that they’re peeking you around and because of that won’t be at their best come March whether it be to the physical or mental toll it takes.

  2. Saying looks are a big part of Clark's endorsements is like saying Larry Bird became the face of Converse because of his vertical leap. Ooof. In both cases, it's just not there. If looks were that big of a part compared to skill in the endorsement disparity in the WNBA, Angel Reese would be cleaning the floor with Clark in endorsements. She is significantly more attractive than Clark, and only gets all those rebounds because she's following up her own missed layups, of which there are many.

  3. So you finally admit Clark isn't getting all the endorsements and accolades because she is white?? But you still think she is making $11M solely because of her looks (which I personally don't think are that great), otherwise it'd be $1M solely on her abilities? Do you even step back and read the things you write...for someone who likes to throw the race card out there a lot, you sure don't have a problem saying a lot of sexist things. Clark is getting paid because she single handily has put the WNBA on the map as a semi-relevant sport...because of her amazing basketball skills...period!

  4. Social, Emotional, & Physical maturity. I drove to college on my 18th birthday. Being pushed back a year before the 6th grade would've done wonders for me in those areas. I would've hated it if I did it after that point.

Since May 2019, however, Iran has continued to violate the terms of the JCPOA agreement. It has lifted the cap on its stockpile of uranium, which is now 30 times the level permitted; increased its enrichment activities to 60%, significantly beyond the 3.67% permitted under the JCPOA

  10. Please provide where I said that Presidents can do whatever they want? I said he is trying to do what he campaigned on and the majority of the people voted for. And if he was King it wouldn't matter what the courts said now would it??? Not to mention THIS is why you think he trying to be a "King"...executive orders?? Something every single President has done and will do in the future?? By the way I never once complained about when Biden did it, Obama did it, etc. Did you complain about it when they did it?? Or can you at least be intellectually honest and just say it is because you hate Trump and leave it at that instead of continuing with these ridiculous and factually incorrect claims.

  11. Valiant has done a lot of the PNL stuff, all of it really which has been great for them. In the fall it is a PNL regional, S32, then the PNL National. They did dual LHP last year and two years ago they went to the St. Christopher's duals in VA as well as had an event with LHP, so that has been good. They had some kids go to College Opens last year which was good for them. Dean wrestled in the Embry Riddle Open, the Doane Open and RTOC College open, placing 3rd, 1st, and 3rd respectively. I think colleges see enough there because so much of HS season matches for really high level kids are so one sided. Valiant also sent a group to Folkstyle Nationals (Barrio, Anderson, Cardinal, Fluckiger) and VA Beach this year (I think like 20 or so kids). The NHSCA group was a really good size group, so yes, you are correct they are doing some more folk. The FS events are kind of open, so it is easier to compete in those. Larkin and Meza met in the RTOC finals a two years ago, both were HS seniors with Larkin winning via major. On the S32 a few years ago Larkin dropped a match to Vince Robinson, so in hindsight probably not as down as thought at the time by many. I am excited to see those Larkin boys compete this year in the lineup at ASU both will be really really good in there. Meza was ranked top 25 ish in December while he used his five events for iowa State. So good to see VCP kids having success in the folk realm as well. They have had a few in the Pittsburgh Classic (Dapper Dan) as well as some in WNO, so some really good events there. Most of the VCP kids drop from ranking for non competition and also they do not see the kids that are ranked during the year so it is goofy and hard to rank them sometimes. Even still with college results it is hard to have anything to weigh them against, that being said I think coaches see what they need, and I agree 100 matches are not needed. Christian Davis true Frosh for Lander took 3rd in NCAA D II this year. Derek Guanajuato had a top 20 win as a true frosh two years ago, so again I think they are definitely having some folk results but I think the FS results overshadow that for sure. Obv, I keep up with them much more than most.

  12. LOL...some serious mental gymnastics going on with this statement. So an executive order is a sign that the President is trying to be a King?? Did the President get appointed or was he voted in? How many of the courts orders against him been overturned by a higher court?? Is the President doing what he said he would do on the campaign trail and hence what the majority of the people voted in favor of happening? Are these the things that makes him a King?

  16. Please, please, please, I beg you Trump supporters to support your president by signing up for this guaranteed to not be a sham service. For $499 you can get a phone made in the USA (wink, wink), and for $47.45 per month you can get phone service from providers that charge much more, for some odd reason, AND telemedicine, AND free perscriptions. Ignore that any single one of these services cost more. You will definitely get what you pay for. And if you do not get what you are promised, you can be certain that federal regulators will be all over this to make the company toe the line.

  18. Stop it. You sound like Jemele Hill. She's become the most popular because of how she plays, not because she's white. Why is A'Ja Wilson and Angel Reese #2 and #3 in endorsement delas? I don't care what percentage of her income is from the WNBA, she's popular because she plays like Steph with better passing. Reducing it to race is ignorant... either saying they hate her because she's white or she's making money because she's white. Everyone here realizes the WNBA has been around for a LONG time, right? The best player or biggest legend has been white as often as it's been a black player. Caitlyn Clark was the most popular coming in because of her game. That created small and petty comments and treatment from legends like Swoopes who said it took her 5 years(extra year due to Covid) and that she was 24 when it took her 4 years and she was 22) to break the scoring record or... just dozens of other obnoxious comments. But if you think her popularity is due to race...that's ridiculous.

  20. It's my understanding that the staff proposed a path for Seth to stay on but he wasn't willing to follow the stipulations. One of the other wrestlers that was involved with the Seth Gross shenanigans was willing to walk the path back and eventually made it onto the starting lineup. Still, big what if

  22. Out of bounds is lava. Literally. Challenge brick is an actual brick. Corner initiating a review must strip down to underwear, Mongolian style, until a decision is rendered. Wrestlers get to choose their opponent's walk-out music. Interlocking fingers: 1st time is warning. 2nd time, wrestlers hands are duct taped together for the rest of the match. Replace criteria with golden score overtime, but with Doja Cat blasting so they get it over with ASAP.

  26. Well there were none on this guy’s list of names, apparently. I didn’t “pawn off the No Kings flyers as nothing,” I pointed out that the other evidence is stronger. There are multiple possible explanations for why he would have those flyers and not be a leftist. Thanks for confirming I didn’t believe any lies!

  33. No. Not when our government account has a gigantic negative balance. Not when our latest big fat ugly government budget bill is pushing our negative balance even higher. If you really want to reward the "military personnel"... Don't make them work some dumb Trump birthday gig. Give them a few days off instead. They'd prefer it.

  34. Army alone is $40+ million. That doesn't include everything else. All in - estimates are roughly $100 million. This for an administration that needed to fire thousands of employees to "save money" Think of how many employees had to be fired to free $100 million for Trump's birthday parade. (~1,700) (... then again, they are hiring them back by the thousands as they continue to realize they fired people they actually needed.)

  36. obtuse: The adjective obtuse is good for describing someone slow on the uptake: "Don't be so obtuse: get with the program!" The adjective obtuse literally means "rounded" or "blunt," but when it's used for a person, it means "not quick or alert in perception" — in other words, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

  37. You made (18) consecutive posts with nobody else posting in between. That makes you a verifiable nutjob. I'm not going to say it hasn't ever been done before. I suspect other verifiable nutjobs have also done it. You are a 100% nutjob poster right now. And your last post recommending I take "pills" ... that sounds just about right coming from you. Slow down. Lay off your pills. I don't dislike you. I don't hate you. But if we're going to correspond, I'm going to ask that you get it together first.
