  1. This is one of the worst takes I've seen today. You even edited it to make sure it was the worst possible take. But I get it, you're a fan. So am I. So bring on the bad takes, build up the fervor, be a fan. Cheers!
  2. Announcer just said the mat judge was calling for a caution and one on Nolf for fleeing, and the other judge was calling for the match to be stopped. Suspect mat referee. Stinky.
  3. Can ask for like four passivities on Nolf, though.
  4. This ref is a Penn State fan. Wow. That was bull****! The ref, HIMSELF, blew the action dead, then Nolf jumps over and out of bounds for two? This is stinky.
  5. Yes, but Spencer is especially chubby, so I'm saying we require weigh-ins twice a day for him.
  6. Greco fans: Joe Rau wins, Zac Braunagel loses. The ref in the Brawlnagel match called Zac for passivity twice. I swear on the souls of my children! Not only did the ref eschew the usual call "A" for passivity in the first period and "B" in the second, but this dude called Zac Braunagel for passivity twice. It's like it started raining upwards! Will the mantle of true heel be taken from PD3 and handed over to the PSU crowd? Booing Jordan Burroughs is a nice start.
  7. So, the last person to beat Jesse Mendez was Kannon Webster during the Summer of 2023?
  8. If we all decide to believe in making weight, then Spencer Lee will have to make weight again tonight. So, everybody, join in with me: "I do believe in scales. I do believe in scales. I do believe."
  9. How often do you think they shout "Gas Tank Gary" during the Flo Watch Party? I am willing to bet that 27% of the conversation has revolved around 0-2 Pat Downey, Jr.
  10. If Downey was really a rebel, he would've forfeited to the bye.
  11. Zane Richards and Ellis Coleman winners. GO ILLINOIS! The kids are tough, but the greybeards cleaned up in those two matches.
  12. Joe Rau with the win 7-0 at 97 kg Greco. Announcer (is that Mike Mal?) with some kudos to ILLINOIS Greco.
  13. Zac Braunagel broke "The Wall" aka Ben Provisor. That's a two-time Olympian that he beat. GO IRTC!!!
  14. Wick versus Marsteller is Laurel and Hardy. Crazy different body styles.
  15. Ringer with a beautiful Fireman's and go-behind on Mark Hall. 5-2 winner.
  16. Green gassed. 6-3 Mendez now with 26 seconds left.
  17. Green had 3.15 hours to rehydrate. Green up 1-0 with a step-out. Takedown on the edge for Green 3-0, Husker, but it was white-paddled. Shoulda been two there, folks. The refs are calling stalemates on front headlocks in 2 seconds! What gives?
  18. Not many tech falls so far. What's up with that? These matches are going the distance for the most part. This is the kind of camerawork that we need for wrestling. The announcers (at least on mats 3 & 4) are very good and knowledgeable. So far, Peacock impresses.
  19. Just lost Mat 3 camera. I was going to come on here and praise them. Then, disaster!
  20. Downey was a one-period wrestler. He hurt one of his elegant legs.
  21. The camera operators are moving the cameras to follow the action! The cameras show bright colors! The cameras were not once owned by Thomas A. Edison! Pantaleo got away with not getting close to Gross for about 12 re-starts there. First winner, Larkin, was my first upset. Wow!
  22. Downey / StallRocky in two on Mat 1. For the morbidly curious. I'm going to start on Mat 1 to see the skeleton we used to call Alec Pantaleo versus Seth Gross. Let's Go!
  23. I'll be on Trackwrestling on their dashboard to pick out the best of the four mats with the most intriguing matchup and then bouncing back and forth.
