  1. He is only there for the dodgeball
  2. To paraphrase Prizzi's Honor: Donald Trump would rather eat his children than give up a 4% commission. And he is very fond of his children.
  3. Everything you got. And everything you can borrow. Thank me later.
  4. You are welcome. This is your big chance to meet your hero. Mortgage the house. Cash in your retirement accounts. Sell your car. Borrow from your parents. Liquidate the kids' 529 plans. Get as much $TRUMP as you can while the getting is good. If you truly believe in Trump it is time to prove it by putting your money where your mouth is. Trump wants you to put up so we all shut up. Do it. Do it. Get some of that sweet, sweet $TRUMP. Just think of the riches. Well, not for you. But what is your happiness compared to Trump's? Are you a true believer? Do it. Do it.
  5. Trump is not sure how the real economy works, but he seems to be mastering the crypto economy. In the past, if you wanted to bribe a President you would have to give him a bag of cash, which could be problematic. Or maybe create a PAC. Now you can just buy his memecoin. But the problem with the memecoin is Trump needs to sell it to monetize the bribes (unlike World Liberty which just puts dollars directly in his pocket). This can present a real problem. Trump owns 80% of $TRUMP and his lock ups are starting to expire, allowing him to sell. But... If you sell too much, too fast, the market collapses and what you thought you had in bribes evaporates. And the thing about bribes is you do not want them to evaporate. You need buying pressure to offset your selling pressure. What to do? What to do? On a completely unrelated note, Trump just announced that he will host a dinner for the largest 220 holders of $TRUMP. And the top 25 holders will attend a reception with Trump before the dinner. The way it works is that they will track who owns the most $TRUMP between April 23 and May 12 to determine who gets the invites. Oh my goodness, I just realized something. This will create buying pressure right when Trump needs it to liquidate his holdings. What a coincidence. Someone alter the President. He probably does not realize this would be a great time to sell right as his lock ups are expiring. How fortuitous.
  6. Whatever the punishment, it has already happened. This was over a month ago.
  7. The judge is pushing back on roster limits to the extent they impact currently rostered athletes. https://www.si.com/fannation/name-image-likeness/nil-news/house-v-ncaa-judge-wilken-threatens-reject-settlement-over-roster-limits
  8. And the guys with 30 or more matches had something in common. A lot of loses. 63 of them took 586 loses (and probably 2 more each during the tournament) to average 9.3 per.
  9. A lot of you guys are acting like load management is a PSU-only thing. Going into the NCAA tournament there were nine undefeated wrestlers. And none of them had a shot at 30-0.
  10. Based on the Big Board data you shared with me in the past the expected AA's for PSU is 7 and the expected AA's for OSU is 9. While those both seem a touch low I think they are directionally correct. Top 10 BB recruits AA more than twice as often as those ranked 11-20 (2.3 vs 1.1). Since OSU has 3 top 10's to PSU's 2 top 10's, you have to give OSU the edge.
  11. I want to expand on my answer a bit. Do you people in Intermat hate nerds? No one on this message board is nerdier than I am. If you look at any of my content it is all about the math and probabilities. While I do not get universal love, I get damn near universal love for that content. But who would want universal love anyway? That would be boring and not help you to grow. I have found this community to be VERY open to new ideas and ways of looking at things. Be original and interesting and no one will care if you are a nerd. Am I gonna get bullied and ostracized? In Intermat? Sure a little, but that depends. You will find that you do not agree with every point of view or every method of expressing them. This will bother you a lot at first. But after a while it will bother you less. When it is bothering you the most you will be tempted to engage. But engaging is a choice. If you do not engage people tend to leave you alone. And if people get really unreasonable, the mods do a good job of banning people, or putting them on pause for a while. In the wider world? Sure. We all get bullied to some extent. But I think wrestling is very accepting of hard work. Hard work is easy to see and even easier to respect. Take a guy like Mitchell Mesenbrink. He is as nerdy as you will find in wrestling, but he is also respected for his high attack rate and mental approach.
  12. Depends on who you ask. One reason I did that was to get a sense of traffic on the different sites. In the 14 hours since I posted this the numbers look like this: Intermat - 668 views HVI (PSU) - 331 On3 (PSU) - 174 HR (Iowa) - 564 34 and Counting (OK ST) - 207 Rutgers - 254
  13. I have not found a good source for scraping NCAA results, so that is all manual. When I do my expected points and AA's I scrape the rankings from Intermat, Flo and WrestleStat. Most everything else is derived data.
  14. six (two PSU forums, Iowa, Oklahoma State, Rutgers, and here)
