Revised projected finishes assuming no changes in weights and Kilic does not start in the top 32:

I thought you liked JB? If JB wrestled the same number of events as Ledecky swims he would have far fewer Olympic medals as he has qualified for a single Olympics while she has qualified for three. And he would have fewer World golds as 86% of her medals are gold, but only 67% of JB's are gold. Or we could flip it around. If she swam a single event she would have 3 Olympic golds in the 800m (2012, 2016, 2020) to JB's 1 Olympic gold (2012). And she would have 5 World golds in 5 attempts (swimming has Worlds in odd years only, except 2021 - they had it in 2022 instead, you know, cuz Covid) to JB's 6 golds in 9 attempts.

Too bad for him. How long is that recovery typically?

dipshittery? twat waffles? The Oxford English Dictionary is going to have a busy year.

The ranking services are feeling you:

I loved his reaction when asked about wrestling elsewhere. The quizzical look was priceless without being combative. He seems to have a very comfortable relationship with the press.

There is a massive gulf between Robbie Howard and Nick Lee. Much larger than the gap between Nick Lee and Zain Retherford.

I too find it weird. Has Spencer Lee ever even said coaching is one of his goals? The last interview of his I saw, he placed heavy emphasis on international competition, but I don't recall any talk of coaching.

I started this on TheMat.com and a lot of people added good stuff to it, so I think I will reprise it here. I cannot remember everything I had on the list, never mind what others added, so hopefully the collective brain can recall it all. Not one, but two 4 timers - Both Spencer Lee and Yianni Diakomihalis are heavy favorites to do the deed and join the pantheon of all-time greats (Pat Smith, Aaron Brooks has a shot at his third title with four still on the table. Also with four still on the table is Keegan O'Toole, but he needs to win number two first. Carter Starocci is the only wrestler in NCAA history that has a shot at five titles, as long as he gets number three this year. Gable Steveson and Roman Bravo-Young can each finish their career as 75%ers (assuming Steveson chooses to wrestle this year). ASU is looking to win their fourth straight PAC-12 championship. NC State is looking to win their fifth straight ACC championship. Campbell is also looking for their fifth straight SoCon championship. What else?

You had to know where I would go with this. Katie Ledecky wins on longevity stats too. She has not lost a 1500 meter race in over a decade, going back to when she was 14. She has the 25 fastest times in history in the 800 meters. And she has 18 of the 25 fastest times in history in the 1500 and 400. Bonkers stats. Sorry, sorry. I forgot my place. Go JB.

And what if you don't know? What is the significances of magistrate.

yours or someone else's?

There are also 20 who went 3 for 3 during the no-freshman eligibility eras.

There have been 30 wrestlers to win 3 out of 4. None lost the chance at four titles their senior year. Three did lose their attempt for four in their junior year. The aforementioned Dick Hutton was first, followed by Ed Banach, and Lincoln McIlravy. They each lost in the final their junior year to go 1, 1, 2, 1.

Right on time

I love numbers. And when you love numbers, you also love outliers. Yianni is absolutely, 100% an outlier. You can believe my motives, or not. But, it doesn't make Yianni's situation any less interesting.

That ship has sailed

You start calling yourself King Brain and Indianamat is starting to look better.

The other Dan device when he is shown to be wrong - "if true" - has made an appearance.

Say it in four.

I feel a need to further clarify my intent here. I want Yianni Diakomihalis to win a fourth title, because I want there to be beautiful things in the world. And winning four titles would be beautiful. I also want Spencer Lee to win a fourth title for the same reason, and because two four timers in the same year would double the beauty. (And Fix with a fourth second would not be displeasing from a symmetry perspective). But there is also a part of me that wants Yianni to win all of his matches by a single point, and not because he is not dominant. No, I want him to win by a single point to prove his dominance. He can call the score before each match, and then demonstrate complete mastery and control by delivering that exact score each time. His opponents' will and desires will be irrelevant. That would be a Uetake level of dominance, and who would not celebrate that?

Red was an AA 2019

I didn't go through everything, but it looks like you are missing some AAs for at least Lee and Diakomihalis. I think Lee has wrestled 9 AAs and Diakomihalis 10. For example, Josh Heil is a two time champ, but you do not have him listed as an AA. And Chad Red is a 4 time AA (some say 3, but they bore me). And Zach Sherman is a 1 time AA.
