It appears the Iranians thought Trump would pick Bob for VP so they kidnapped him before the convention. Now that its Vance they stole his papers. It all makes sense.
It does have the markings of an Iranian infiltration. The thread is, "America Sucks, Abolish Folkstyle, Everyone's overrated, hire the Brands to coach USA" .

How do we know its not Iranian or maybe Bob programed some AI bot poster just to spice up the forum?
All valid theories. Bob is MIA. And we all know Bob is Jimmy Cinnabon and now he went radio silent in the last couple of hours. With the new bots are we sure the Iranians didn't take Bob hostage?

It's as good of a conspiracy theory as the rest of them fellas. If you need proof just head on over.

Yeah, I REALLY struggle to fault a Russian for his political views when high-profile people can end up dead if they speak out.
People are just people. They want to live their lives, they want to get up, go about their business. If you're a world class Wrestler, you just want to Wrestle, take care of your Family. I don't like assigning malicious intent to these athletes unless just unprompted they start spewing propaganda.
Good reminder...even if you don't always love the person we've got in power, we're incredibly lucky to be able to say whatever the duck duck goose we want...(except when Bob Dole censors me
).
How sad would it be if Snyder couldn't Wrestle because he spoke out against Biden/Trump-whoever for their foreign policies? Everyone I know would be in prison for...SOME reason over the last ~20 years.
`Speaking of Bob Dole when is his twin Keir Starmer going to join the forum?

Did Dake ever use that wonderful chest wrap in folkstyle?
Dake was a lot older in college. Didn't have the strength like he does now that he is younger. But do you not miss the Dake claw?

This is a new idea but why not just transition to Breaking?
Only 2nd to Beach Volleyball. For different reasons of course

Crazy thing is, Saduleev was suspended in the past by making a political statement in wearing a tshirt that could easily be construed as being against Russian rule of Dagestan. It’s not like he has always been hardline pro-Putin and pro-Russia.
Hear about it all the time about the influence and fear that scum lord Ramzan Kadyrov has over the Dagestani/Chechen fighters in the UFC. Sure same goes with the wrestlers.

I mean, I’ve seen the same picture as everyone else.
Supposedly trying 92 kg for non-Olympic worlds.
Duh. Brain fart on my part

Although 2024 Azarpira could be better than 2024 neck surgery Sad. Who knows?
Hopefully we see him wrestle again some day. Does anyone know what the IOC found that proved he was in support of the invasion of Ukraine?

I’d be concerned about Uzbek 74 kg but otherwise I agree.
PS also Snyder still with Taz. Saduleev is 7 seed.
Good point on Sad with his 2023 result and not being able to wrestle Euros in February. So Snyder still finds himself in the same situation

Russia didn’t send their best athletes. How many medals do we have if they did? Do we think Iran, Japan, and Russia should all be better than the US?
Who gets knocked out? If anything Snyder gets the #4 seed and he's wrestling in the finals against Taz or Sadulaev. Dake gets the 2 seed and wrestles Sidakov in the finals. Theres 2 wrestlers right there that benefit with the Russians in. No one at 86kg that Brooks couldn't have beaten. Zain finds himself in a similar spot and Spencer proved he can hang with any Russian in the world

Really... 5am AGAIN?!?
D3
Unfortunately. Below is the schedule for the US and Seabass starting @5am est. If Seabass advances he'd slot in to the 7th match and if Zain he'd slot into the 8th match for Bronze

Burroughs has ruined your expectations. It's not normal for a dude to rack up gold after gold. You guys started think your favorite NCAA guy could do the same. Nearly 100% of the time, it's just not so.
Jordan only won One Olympic gold. Goes to show how hard the Olympics is

If you told me before the Games that Spencer, with his injury history and in his 1st year of international senior wrestling, would outplace everyone else on this team of veterans, I would have given you a cookie
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie? Because I'm pretty sure I said those exact words to you

They didn’t disallow the challenge, the coaches cancelled it. The rule is actually straight forward. If the wrestler who initiates the action steps out in the process of a TD, then it is still a TD. Dake had a TD and the challenge would’ve failed and put Dake back in the lead. It was a good call not to.
Thats what I assumed. But, @HumblestMumble had me doubting for a second

They rejected Tsabolovs challenge and screwed him lol…
that was absolutely not two for Kyle
Was a little confused myself on Dakes tkd. This is what i found but it takes a law degree to litigate Freestyle rules
"In all cases, in standing position, if one of the attacking wrestler’s foot is in the protection area, which is outside the passivity zone, the referee will not interrupt the bout and will wait for action to be completed."

Do the American coaches need to study the Uzbekistanis on how to pin the Japanese? Asking for a lot of haters

He made a career off a blast double. I definitely would not call him a superior technician.
Not the point of the post. Just some particular posters claiming everyone is overrated etc etc

I saw Snyder flying through the air to an 11/0 loss.
I guess he was afraid to wrestle hard for 6 minutes. When he pushed the pace, he scored or was close to scoring. Wrestling like Varner isn't going to get it done regardless of your religious beliefs.
Yeah. He got blanked on counters. So your plan is to what? Let's hear it. Wrestle harder? Be more aggressive? What shots should he set up?

Have Russian Troll Farms Infiltrated our Intermat International Wrestling Forum
in Non Wrestling Topics
Posted · Edited by PortaJohn
It's starting to add up. First, Jimmy Cinnabon aka Bob Dole posts an Amit Elor should wrestle in college at Iowa thread. Israel infiltrating American wrestling through Iowa City would further their stranglehold on America and give them what they've always wanted. To change international wrestling to Folkstyle. The Israeli's bought @flyingcement or have dirt on him. Throughout the Olympics all he's been doing is posting portal info on the college board. Then the Iranians/Russians fearing the Israeli plot, capture Bob Dole and infiltrate the International Forum. Wonder what @uncle bernard thinks about this
