Great comment and Rogan is the only man I've seen been able to keep him somewhat on track. Maybe ESPN has Joe on speed dial. Cormier needs JR not JB

Shapiro is going to torch him

Any chance you can get them to switch it up? Putting in a request for "I Got A Story to Tell"

Anyone else have Biggie Smalls Who Shot Ya playing in the background on the matcast?

Because....Penn State

You two can have your 17's. I'm riding the Rogotzke pony Express to the finals

Carter wrestled a smart match. I was extremely impressed. Came on here and the narrative is he sucked. So, take it for what it is. I remember Nolf was going to lose to Kem then Micah after only winning 6-1 over Crone in R2 (2018)...Too injured, didn't look good, etc etc

Yes, I believe the most of any team. But don't let that get in the way of a fun narrative for the haters. It's tourney time!

Rogotzke/Salazar McKee/Fig Poulin/Ramos

espn+ has the matcast with all 8

Yes

dim Gobaith caneri

I translated bnwtwg from Welsh to English. It's btwwg

How much more to suck? Why am I doing this? Would rather be getting laid. They're out where? Those f*ckers. Damn, did I tell myself this sucks already

Most likely but why not spike your kool aid the night before and get a little crazy on Crunk Juice

I've been able to win many of my pools with usually only taking one #1 seed. Sometime I take none and build it around #2's & #3's. For the big board luck definitely has to be on your side

I wouldn't say that but think of it this way just for fun. Using WKNs chart lets say the admin let you take 5 #1 seeds for your 1,000 & I took 5 # 2 seeds (800) I'd have 200 points to spare and could take a #1 seed. Chances are I beat you by having 6 scoring wrestlers vs your 5. Your five #1's expected score (102.65) vs my five #2's & one #1 (106.93) It's all about value. Also, you have to take Carter Starocci. A) he's the best value pick at #9 and probably at any weight B) It's an offset pick. Have to strategize because everyone is taking him or at least they should

I'd drop O'toole and pick up another top seed if you're looking for bonus value. He has a tough go quarters on. There's an obvious top seed that I think a lot of people forgot has been wrestling this season

I've heard about the back issue from posters on our forum a few weeks back

I believe next year pretty much finishes off the covid cycle.

Jared Franek has to be well into his 40's

The Bastida over Kerk picks are as nutty as the previous Caliendo over Mesenbrink fantasy

Aaron Brooks Mistakes Stadium for Mosque: Misses on Opportunity for Fourth Title Kansas City, March 24, 2024 In a hilarious mix-up that left bystanders amused and Aaron embarrassed, a college wrestler, Aaron Brooks, mistakenly confused a bustling stadium for a mosque during a recent event. The incident occurred last night at T-Mobile Center, one of Kansas City's most iconic sports and entertainment venues. Aaron, known for his fervent passion to win a fourth title, had eagerly anticipated Saturday night's finals. However, what unfolded was an unexpected twist of events that had Aaron seeing the world through a different lens. As crowds flooded into the stadium, Aaron, caught up in the excitement of the moment, failed to notice the telltale signs that he was not entering a sports arena but rather a place of worship. Ignoring the architectural cues and the absence of a wrestling mat, he confidently made his way inside, his mind filled with visions of having his hand raised. It wasn't until Aaron found himself surrounded by rows of individuals engaged in quiet prayer, their heads bowed in reverence, that the realization of his mistake dawned upon him. Shocked and embarrassed, Aaron attempted to blend in with the worshippers, but his unmistakable sports attire made him stand out like a sore thumb in the serene atmosphere of the mosque. Witnesses to the amusing incident couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of the bewildered athlete amidst the congregation. However, rather than causing offense, Aaron's unintentional intrusion sparked laughter and camaraderie among those present. "It was definitely an unexpected moment of levity," remarked Salman Ahmed, one of the worshippers who witnessed Aaron's blunder. "We were in the midst of our prayers when suddenly this guy walks in wearing a Penn State track suit. We couldn't help but find it amusing." Despite his initial embarrassment, Aaron was met with kindness and understanding from the mosque's attendees, who reassured him that everyone makes mistakes. He was invited to join them for tea, where he shared laughter and stories with his newfound friends. Reflecting on the incident, Aaron expressed gratitude for the warm reception he received and vowed to pay closer attention to his surroundings in the future. "It was definitely a memorable experience," Aaron admitted with a sheepish grin. "I'll be sure to double-check where I'm going next time, but hey, at least it gave everyone a good laugh." As Aaron's accidental adventure came to an end, it served as a reminder of the importance of embracing diversity and finding humor in life's unexpected moments – whether they occur on the wrestling mat or in the halls of a mosque.
