Second straight match of baffling tactics by Illinois. Do they know they're losing?

That was creative by Estrada!

He did more than Webster, which was baffling, but not much.

That was terrible. What was Webster thinking? He did nothing and let Parco essentially stall the match out without getting called because he didn't press any action until the last 30 seconds. (Both guys were awful to watch, but I'm just baffled by the strategy by Webster).

When you're on one leg, you don't have much control, especially compared to the guy with two legs down and holding your other leg.

If Block doesn't figure out how to actually penetrate on a shot, he may not even qualify. Gross offense.

I guess. He's standing on one leg, bouncing around, they end up near the edge and he gets his leg down already half out of bounds. Not much place to go. Pacino finally gets the TD he's been close to.

Block's leg attacks are terrible.

That stall call on Block was lame.

Truly wondrous how he appeared 4 days ago and had never said or done a single public thing before his hearing.

Decided to do some digging. Here are the results for the name "Hegseth" on this very forum for the entirety of it's existence up until just before he was announced. Like I said, backbencher and a nobody, relatively speaking.

As he's going on about "up and coming promising candidate for years" I legit stifled a laugh. There was legitimate shock when the Hegseth nomination was announced, muted by the shock of Gaetz. The Hegseth shock was more in the "huh?" range than the Gaetz reaction, lol.

LOL. Great so people aren't allowed to have opinions on people they've never met, so I'm sure you've never expressed opinions on this very subforum about people you've never met... He's a backbencher on Fox & Friends. He was not one of the main hosts, and was brought in as fill in or weekends. I'm sorry this simple fact hurts your feefees.

A back bencher on Fox & Friends? He undoubtedly was, lol, WTF are you even talking about. He wasn't one of the main people. This isn't even contested, lol.

If you want to shoot me a timestamp of where the interesting stories are, I'll give it a shot.

ALl stuff that happend with Walz 30 years ago and he has been, as far as we know, stone cold sober since. Hegseth has multiple recent reports about heavy drinking. They are not anonymous. The Senate has names, those names just aren't being released to the public. This was referenced numerous times during the hearing whenever Hegseth would try to hide behind that weak shield. This guy's own mother wrote an email castigating him for abusing women, he promised multiple REPUBLICAN Senators he wouldn't drink if he was confirmed. Because this doesn't match with some people's political leanings they're dismissing commonly used sourcing that they would readily accept if it matched their political leanings. This guy was a relative nobody, a backbencher on Fox & Friends that just happened to match what Trump was looking for (young, good looking, etc) so he got the nod, and so we learned more about him and it's readily apparent he's unfit. It won't matter, he'll get confirmed because many of the Republicans Senators are cowards (although some, I'm sure, are fine with this). Here's the part, it's all about "pissing off the libs." Hegseth isn't "special." There are dozens of guys that could enact the same policies Trump wants that don't have multiple reports about public intoxication, that weren't fired from two Veteran's organizations at least partially for drinking, that weren't accused of sexual assault, that don't have multiple women restricted from commenting by NDAs, etc. They could have gone for any of them, and had a ho hum confirmation. But Trump and his team want to flex and see who will be "loyal". And so the Rs will cower. Maybe they'll have some backbone over a legitimately dangerous person like Gabbard or Kennedy, but just for that whole laundry list up there about Hegseth who's "just" unqualified? He'll sail thru.

Now you're just making things up that nobody said.

It's not necessarily a Penn State thing, i just generally find most athletes in this form to be hard to listen to. Which makes sense, their skills are targeted elsewhere. They tend to work better as sidekicks or just being the guest...but even though Star is the guest here, the interviewer is Bo, lol. If the person ends up being good, I'll find my way back to the podcast. Most athletes interviews in general I don't find that interesting or illuminating. Some people love it though! Not all content is for everybody!

I am pro the side of making the team championship decided by a dual tournament.

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/pete-hegseth-back-scrutiny-grows-misconduct-allegations/story?id=116444894 Thankfully he's promised Republican Senators that he's stopped doing and will not continue to do this thing that is not a problem at all, nope, everything is fine.

I'd rather listen to a Jimmy Cinnabon/Pat Mineo double feature podcast.

Are you talking about Walz' DUI arrest from 30 years ago and comparing it to Hegseth's documented and current drinking issues?

"Hey watch this video of Bo Nickal and Carter Starocci talking abou--" "Nah, I'm good."

Cool story man. Either address the substance or move on.

No, you're trying to make an assertion about a tangent without addressing the actual substance.
