Scout, do you think it's time to also reveal to @RockLobster that the earth isn't flat or is that too much for him?

These people are completely nuts. The right-wing propaganda and divisiveness have created a nationwide mob of whackos and they'll shoot Democrats, Republicans, and everything in between. There's no limit to where these people will go and I think we've just seen the beginning.
Even though he was shot by a right-winger, there WILL DEFINITELY be retaliation and shooting of minorities and Democrats.
Where are you getting this info from? From what I've read so far is the FBI hasn't found any evidence to this point that reveals his political ideology. Facts that I have found and are corroborated
1) He was a registered Republican
2) He made a small donation to Progressive Turnout Project, a liberal group
3) He voted once in the 2022 midterms
4) They have yet to find any social media posts that reveal his ideology
5) No one who knew him intimately has come forward revealing any political ideologies he might have had. There is a classmate "claiming" Crooks mocked him for being a Trump supporter in 2016. Emphasis on "claiming"
6) The NYTimes reported that Crooks had searched for images of both Trump and Biden. He also searched for dates of Trump Appearances and the DNC Convention. This report is based on a 2nd hand account of a "person" on a conference call with lawmakers. Supposedly he also searched "major depressive disorder"
7) His father is registered as a Libertarian and his mother is registered as a Democrat

They ended up being the USA team reps at 145 and 152 at the Dapper Dan that year, pretty cool:
Here's some Dapper Dan Trivia.
-The year 1992 is probably the most famous because of the Bono/Kolat match. Manning heavyweight that year for team USA was now Wisconsin head coach Luke Fickell.
-NCAA champs who have lost at the event are Kellen Russell, Eric Juergens, Jake Herbert, Darian Cruz, Anthony Ashnault, Cory Clark, Alex Dierenger, Chris Perry, LeRoy Smith, Barry Davis, Jeff Prescott, T.J. Jaworsky

I will always remember the Pico hype that the owner of my first gym had. We used to watch all of his matches together, just in total astonishment of what was going on. It came a huge shock when he decided not to pursue the sport any further.
Would've been fun to watch him compete in college. His run at the 2016 OTT's was extremely impressive. Side note, first time I ever heard of Yazdani is when he impressively beat Pico at 2014 World JR's.

Yes. The definition is the right of citizens to political and social freedom and equality, equality being the key here; all women everywhere should have complete control over their bodies.
Before I start I consider myself pro choice sometimes and pro life with restrictions the other times. I'm all over the place on this issue but here is the crux of it for me. Let's throw out the extreme scenarios. Which I hope all of us can agree on. Let's say the female and the fetus are healthy. At what point does the fetus have rights? Or does the fetus deserve no rights until it exits the womb?

Agree they are different scenarios but there is relevance. Would you classify abortion as a civil right?

I just typed out a whole long reply, but then the thread seems to have been deleted while I was typing, so that sucks.
Well, hopefully a few posters can refrain from name calling and instead enhance the conversation with actual facts.

He's a stud and will fit well into Taylor's room. He has a lot of upside. At this point he's not up there with the other guys you mentioned. He's placed at some major tournaments in Folk and Free but has yet to win any of them from what I remember.

Or not. Same shit, different toilet...
5 minutes ago, JimmyBT said:And you’re the toilet ……. Someday you’ll figure that out
Fellas fellas. Lets clear our heads and get some facts straight. Toilets, sanitation in general, is an important component to a healthy society. It provides protection from disease and infections. List of waterborne disease a toilet helps prevent: hepatitis, amoebiasis, and gastrointestinal infections. Toilets also offer prevention of environmental contamination. Also the spread of mosquitos that can transmit diseases like dengue, yellow fever, and zika.

The shooter only missed killing President Trump by about 1/2 an inch. or less. The bullet was traveling at 2500 feet per second. If Trump hadn't turned his head to look at the huge graph to his right, he would have been killed.
Not trying to argue but that was less than 1/2". Grazed his ear. Another point is that the shooter (if he had any training) would have waited for Trump to turn to his right. The target (Trump in this case) turning towards the shooter created a larger target area. I'm guessing the shooter used an AR-15 chambered in 5.56/223 and used a 55 or 62 grain bullet. FPS would've been slightly higher than 2500 at 150 yards. Anyways, just some trivial stuff

While the conspiracy theories pile up I choose to believe it was a kid who was a loner, detached from society, and acted alone. Also, I still find the BBC interview disturbing. Failure on the part of the SS.

given the actual shooter was on a roof, i bet the secret service panicked and fired blindly into the crowd.
No. They didn't panic. The snipers were set up to the back corner of the stage. More likely they didn't have a clear line of sight. In the video you can see the sniper had to re adjust.

Quite possible. Lot's of questions have to be answered.

My understanding is they can’t get in trouble as long as their staff stays out of it.
But to your second point, yeah I’m sure something like that (just not Cael himself) could and probably already does happen. Kerk being one example who may have been influenced by others to transfer to PSU.
I'm sure @Husker_Du or @Jason Bryant know best on the situation but I thought Kerks move to PSU had everything to do with Kyle Snyder. If Snyder stayed in Columbus so would have Kerk

Are you being serious here? You don't think professional sports agents are in contact with teams their clients don't play for? Most agencies represent players on dozens of teams and they can have legitimate talks with any team in the league with total deniability. In every pro sport guys will sign contracts in literally the first minute of free agency. Is it your opinion those contracts just happen with super fast negotiations?
At least in the NFL since 2012 the league opened up a small window prior to the official start of Free Agency. Only the player's agent is allowed to talk with other teams. Was solely done to prevent backdoor deals and is why you see players sign official contracts within seconds of the free agency period.

Apparently Joe Rogan works out with kettlebells only. Is that a common habit these days?
There's tons of different workout regiments these days. I started training with resistance bands , cardio, and pull ups/pushups. I'll probably never go to a gym again

She only gets trotted out when they want to try and insinuate that trump shouldn't have been president. She's useless as far as positive messaging goes.
Not a fan and would never vote for if she rtied to run again her but I will forever applaud her for coming out and endorsing George Latimer

Invest in a good window cleaning system. Squeegee, scrubber, bucket, telescopic pole…
@Hammerlock3 to add on to this check all your windows and exterior doors. Caulk where necessary. Check your window panes and make sure they are up to snuff. Weather strip all your exterior doors. Homeowners waste a lot of money on heating and cooling due to poor maintenance on easy fixes

Marsteller was a major one, as I remember. 4-time undefeated out of PA. I still wonder (especially with his later success) how his career may have gone differently not being at OSU.
The Alton brothers were big names, as was Metcalf and Nickerson.
Close to home for me, and was a BIG deal out of the Missouri wrestling scene at the time, was TJ Hill.
https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2000-mar-16-sp-9420-story.html
All great ones for sure. I remember hearing about Nickerson from a Cornell wrestler who said was going to be better than Travis Lee. That was a pretty big statement at the time. Altons also legends. And of course there was Spencer Lee. But I put Marsteller above all of them. I heard about Chance when he was still in middle school. Some freak of nature youth wrestler who never lost and was training with Cary Kolat.

Palmer a brother who was also destined to be a 4x state champ (he was) his family was known for wrestling bears, and the St. Eds notoriety certainly helped.
Collin Palmer vs David Taylor is the best HS match to ever happen

My top 3/4 are
1) as a kid it was Cary Kolat
2) While I was in high school Mocco
3) As an older feller tie between Chance Marstellar and Aaron Pico

(Unless you think the primary job of the president is to watch TV and send tweets.)Not the worst President in US history. It will be hard to ever overtake Jame Buchanan for that title
