  1. This just in. Over the weekend Aaron Brooks was forced to appear at halftime of the PSU football game to turn over his 197 pound title to a guy they found in the stands who weighed 197 AND was taller than Brooks. When asked about the seemingly arbitrary way to determine a national champ, Brooks said, "Some SOB on Intermat realized I was too short for 197, so they are making me do this. He better pray to Allah I do not find out who he is." Sixty seven year old Baron Rooks, seen clapping to Brooks' right, was not surprised. "I knew I could take Brooks on the measuring tape and equal him on the scale. This is the right thing. It is just a shame it took so long," Rooks said. Rooks, a manager at a mall-based fast food chain in Omaha, Nebraska is planning to display his well deserved trophy next to the cash register.
  2. Another thing that makes you go hmmm is taking Minnow's word for it. But Sanderson is always forthright with the media...sorry had to wipe some tears while typing.
  3. One more. Because they wrestle the NWCA on Saturday, expect to see some back ups at some of 141, 149, 157, 174 and 184 against Drexel on Sunday.
  4. I just want to be clear. Now it is value, right? Not just revenue generation? Before you said value and revenue generation are the same thing. But here you are saying they are different in different cases (you know, not the same thing). Before you were saying it was only about ability to make revenue for the school. But now you say all professional jobs have subjective criteria. Maybe take a minute. Give it a little more thought. And then decide which you want it to be.
  5. No, they are not. For the reasons I listed above.
  6. There you go again, switching definitions. Now it is about value? Before you said it was about generating revenue.
  7. No. Nowhere in the working world is everyone's pay based solely on their revenue generating capacity. There are profit centers and there are cost centers in ever business. If you are a sales person, then sure there is a revenue component. If you are the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Compliance Officer, the General Counsel you generate zero revenue, but you are likely among the highest paid individuals at a company.
  8. https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/news/5-penn-state-wrestling-takeaways-from-media-day-updates-on-greg-kerkvliet-aaron-nagao-starter-battles-more/ From the article: 1. Aaron Nagao is hurt, Greg Kervliet is not 2. No decision yet at 157 between Kasak (up form 149) and Facundo (down from 165) 3. Coaches wanted Starocci to go 184 last year 4. There is still a chance Lilledahl redshirts(assuming if Kurt McHenry impresses) 5. 197 is also undecided between Lucas Cochran and Josh Barr 6. While there has been a round of wrestle offs, they will also use the non-conference schedule to make some decisions 7. Both Mirasolas are redshirting
  9. NIL has never been designed to be equal. No serious person is talking about equal NIL. Nor would it even be possible to make payments equal because there is not a single payor who could control it. Stop conflating NIL payments with the potential payments made directly by schools to athletes as part of the House settlement.
  10. The Minnow is claiming Facundo beat Kasak. Not sure if that was a wrestle off, or if PSU even does wrestle offs.
  11. Very Muskian of you
  12. I would be surprised if they did not do this.
  13. The new Wrestlestat rankings are out this morning (I believe Intermat updates tomorrow). Take a bow Freshmen. They have entered the building. Below are the highest ranked freshmen who were unranked in the pre-season rankings. Virginia Tech leads the way with three freshmen on the list (and both are in the top 14). Followed by NC State with two top 19 entrants.
  14. I do not see Caliendo, Arnold, or Keuter as title threats.
  15. It seems like you are looking for hypocrites with this thread. Sophie Turner - A British citizen said she might return to the UK. Not exactly shocking. Oh, and she did return to the UK. So not a hypocrite. Cher - Said she would leave, and changed her mind. Hypocrite. America Ferrera - Said she would relocate to the UK and was seen checking schools in West London for her kids. Seemingly not a hypocrite. Billie Eilish - She was cited in the article in spite of never having made the claim. Not a hypocrite. Christina Applegate - Ditto. She was cited in the article in spite of never having made the claim. Not a hypocrite. Jimmy Kimmel - Already covered above. Not a hypocrite. Billie Joel - Not even named in the article. But Billie Joe Armstrong was. Not a hypocrite. Billie Joe Armstrong - said he would renounce his citizenship in 2022 in response to Roe v Wade being overturned. Nothing to do with Trump getting elected in 2024. Not a hypocrite. The article you want to cite as a list has seven names listed (and you want to add an eighth) of which only one has done the thing you are looking for. The hypocrite in this situation is the author of the article. You have to read beyond the headline. The article does not support what is in the headline. There is a lot of talk about how the mainstream media is lying to us. But the same people who make that claim have no qualms with citing articles from the jenkiest of jenkitty sources. Talk about hypocrisy.
  16. Clearly not or else they would be called nuns. But they both don't date, have sex, have children, or get married. The things you listed.
  17. Explain the priesthood or being a nun.
  18. I read the article and it appears to be a list of one. Billie Armstrong, whoever that is. And I looked up what Kimmel said. It was a skit at the open of his show after the election where he was packing his office to leave because he was on Trump's enemy list. The skit ended with him agreeing to stay and fight. Not exactly saying before the election he would leave if Trump was elected. Instead joking about it after. I was afraid the list would be something like this.
  19. Does All-American Nelson Brands being defeated by the art of the takedown count as an upset?
  20. Certainly the marriage of academics and professional sport makes no sense.
  21. #23 Tyler Knox (Stanford) 15-10 over #7 Drake Ayala (Iowa) in CHA
  22. I will clear it up for you. What I mean is your are particularly bad at math. And at arguing your points. You do seem very good at using a random word generator.
