A guy with 1965 in his username is worried about giving away his age?

No, it makes me Sgt. Hulka, the big toe of the army.

Lighten up, Francis. The Babylon Bee is satire.

How many times have my lawyers crushed you already? Why do you want to come back for more?

Ideally NCAA final.

Is there a more exciting match up than Andrew Alirez vs Jesse Mendez at 141 this coming season?

These ranking series events are problematic if you want to take them seriously. To perform optimally, you should get there about a week ahead of time to get over the jet lag and acclimate to the time zone. That is not just time consuming, it is very expensive. If you are just going to show, not worry about performance, and collect some minimum points it is less so.

I don't know if this is 4.38 speed, but man he has some wheels on him. Just ran past a lot of people who thought they had an angle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urjayGmL94Y

I did not realize that either until watching this. Gotch and Hackenschmidt were a couple of scary dudes.

Yeah, but he couldn't beat Conan the Destroyer on his home court.

Wait a second. Common sense prevailed? Maybe all this litigation against the NCAA is paying off. Now imagine they had just been reasonable in the first place...

Both BJJ and submission grappling are offshoots of catch according to the doc.

And they have one kid who saw me in my Penn State swag and looked at me with contempt. That is what made the experience great. Oh, and that time Kemerer almost beat Starocci at the buzzer and the place exploded with a sound so loud it made me dizzy. No, but it is the contemptuous kid thing.

I have been there a couple times. Highly recommended.

To unionize, be subject to right to work, and at-will employment the athletes would have to become employees first. This is something the NCAA has fought against successfully....so far.

The NBA is on the verge of signing a $70+ billion dollar media rights deal that will nearly triple their annual take even though their viewership has been in steady decline. With the skyrocketing valuation of any live sports programming it really is inevitable that college football and basketball would become big business.

A mandate providing a significant portion of the content for free IS providing broadcast rights for less than what they are worth. All that achieves is providing even larger profits for broadcasters (they have no cost) thereby moving the money further away from the athletes who provide the live entertainment that is the single most valuable commodity in the world of broadcast/streaming today. The impact of money on sports is not a new concern. From the 1928 National Collegiate Athletic Association Official Intercollegiate Wrestling Guide: "Extend the foregoing argument that the influence of professionals is condemnatory and it becomes applicable to practically every known sport. One might just as fitly stigmatize tennis, football, baseball ad lib as being attainted, because the "root of all evil" sometimes grows into a giant and casts its shadow over almost every human activity." But I do not see how you can un-ring that bell. The money is here, and it is not going anywhere. We live in a country dedicated to economic activity. This is just one more example.

after he has used all his eligibility?

That Iowa fans are the most awesome ever? I took the survey. Seemed pretty straightforward. Asking to rate different aspects of the CHA experience.

I watched this topnotch documentary on youtube yesterday and wanted to share. Curran Jacobs (MSU wrestler and catch world champion) has put together a documentary on the history of catch-as-catch-can wrestling along with Mike Chapman (WIN Magazine, creator of the Hodge Trophy, 5x National Wrestling Writer of the Year) that is absolutely fascinating. I cannot recommend this highly enough. Learn about guys like Billy Riley, Karl Gotch, Frank Gotch, Farmer Burns, and many more. Watch Terry Brands volunteer to get his tibia broken with a toe hold in front of the Gable statue. See the passion Dan Gable and others have for the history of the sport. It is an hour and seventeen minutes well spent. To paraphrase Mike Chapman, get hooked on catch.

The few articles I have read that mention this say it is undetermined. Heck, a lot of how this impact D1 is still undetermined. But as this is an NCAA issue, I do not think it directly impacts NAIA.

Re-read that sentence. You have mis-comprehended again. The article made a dumb claim. Of course, by extention, you made a dumb claim. So there is that. Why did you post that article? What about that article made you think it was a good idea to post it? My prediction that you would not provide straight answer was accurate, but also very simple. Not providing a straight answer is the coin of your realm.

Don't forget mother's maiden name.
