  1. This forum (I include TheMat) can be a very schizophrenic. There have been multiple threads complaining that stalling on top needs to be called more because too often the top man is not attempting to turn. But now we have a thread complaining that a turning move should be against the rules.
  2. Sarcasm is my second love. Behind behind bow and arrows.
  3. Participation trophies seem in order.
  4. There is a solution. Go over. Besides I can't recall anyone getting injured in a bow and arrow.
  5. My glass house does not allow for commentary.
  6. They said he was 215 last year and 265 this year. It took me longer but I ground my way to an extra 50 too.
  7. I cannot imagine anything worse than being the bow in a bow and arrow.
  8. Both times I thought, no way he survives, but man did that dude fight to stay off his back.
  9. I have Lee with the upset
  10. Especially that last one. He was flat underneath, took a moment like he was ready for the stalemate, but then pulled it in for the TD.
  11. Was Gomez limping?
  12. Yes, Cael Sanderson is most known for not caring about winning. You are a keen observer of the human condition.
  13. What is your level of confidence in that prediction?
  14. Come on. How has no one said "the fand" yet?
  15. While I am militantly central, I love all the people.
  16. Now we are getting into the meat of it. Hopefully the load management / resting / nicked up / seed protection portion of the season is over and we get to see all of these match ups. D'Emilio v C Rooks, Smith v Washington, Van Ness v Gomez, Facundo v Hamiti (though WS doesn't agree), Kerkvliet v Hilger should all be juicy. 7 p.m. Eastern Ohio State v Indiana - Wrestlestat has it 31-3 anOSU Heinselman 9 - 4 Moran 3-0 Mendez 11 - 3 Porter 7-0 D'Emilio 8-5 C Rooks 10-0 Sasso 13 - 4 G Rooks 14-0 Gallagher 6 - 7 Gilcher 14-3 Kharchla 12 - 3 Major 18-3 Smith 10 - 5 Washington 21-3 Romero 14 - 2 Harris 25-3 Hoffman 7 - 4 Willham 28-3 Orndorff 7 - 4 Bullock 31-3 https://www.wrestlestat.com/compare/dual/55/ohio-state/33/indiana 9 p.m. Eastern Penn State v Wisconsin - Wrestlestat has it 25-12 PSU Steen 2 - 10 Barnett 0-4 Bravo-Young 12 - 4 LaMont 4-4 Bartlett 10 - 3 Zargo 7-4 Van Ness 7 - 8 Gomez 7-7 Barraclough 8 - 6 Model 10-7 Facundo 1 - 17 Hamiti 10-12 Starocci 17 - 3 Otto 14-12 Brooks 19 - 3 Dow 19-12 Dean 9 - 3 Amos 22-12 Kerkvliet 9 - 2 Hilger 25-12 https://www.wrestlestat.com/compare/dual/60/penn-state/77/wisconsin
  17. I was at a conference in June where Scaramucci spoke. These were the questions submitted to him by the audience.
  18. I tried looking, but couldn't find anything. Since the round was chambered I fired anyway.
  19. Luke Pletcher would like a word.
  20. Dan Gable is The King First a pretty graph showing the years that each coach coached and the percentage of the bracket that AAed each year. The % of a bracket to AA takes into account both the bracket size and the number of AA's each season (which was variable over the time period). The assumption is that the higher the % of the bracket to AA, the easier it is to AA. I don't know if this is exactly correct. In the open era with more wrestlers in the bracket there is, I believe, a higher incidence of soup cans. In the qualifying era that gets sorted out before the tournament. So take it with a grain of salt. Next a table. Based on AA's per season Gable is clearly head and shoulders above the rest, with Cael Sanderson a distant second. But I also wanted to adjust for field size and number of AA slots (in spite of the caveat above) so I also calculate the percentage of all AA's available during their tenure that each coach earned. Again, Gable runs away from the field, but now Harold Nichols pips Sanderson as there were between 4 and 8 AA's per weight and between 8 and 11 weights during Nichols' tenure.
  21. Re-dubbing that scene is endlessly entertaining. Thanks for that.
  22. Wait, there's a party? Should I bring an appetizer or a dessert?
