And a new one this year. Taking a barbell approach, the most interesting results are often the extremes. So, here I have the probability of being in the final two versus the probability of going 0-2, BBQ.

Next comes the probability of All-American by seed.

I spent a little time yesterday folding the 2025 results into the model. First, expected points, including bonus, per seed. Not a lot of big changes, but the hump in the 26/27 range has begun to flatten out a bit. The other interesting thing is, despite the change in scoring there was not a noticeable change in bonus. While it is higher than the previous two years, those years were very down. I am looking at 11 years of data (the 16 and 32 seed era), and across that range 2024/25 bonus scoring does not stand out.

Yeah, those stats range between hard, and impossible, to come by.

Hell, I am not knowledgeable enough to start the topic, but here we are.

692 views and only 36 votes. Call me confused.

If by alleged you mean admitted, then sure.

Ok, the story says alledged. Many people have been accused of many things that turned out to be false. That the Trump Administration is now attempting to win in the court of public opinion when they canmot win in multiple courts of law means nothing to me. But it sure does to some people.

What article? Do you mean the screenshot of a headline from the ny post?

Oh, yes it can. It does it all the time through its control of the world financial system. That theater in the White House was orchestrated by Trump. The funniest punchline was when a guy who calls himself a charismatic dictator said he had no power to return him. And he did it with a straight face.

I don't know what it is, I just know it is 12 long per Casey Cunningham's email today.

Maybe ask ChatGPT what it thinks of defying the Supreme Court. And ask it what it thinks of the head of the department of education not knowing what it is.

No, it is a long list.

One more fun fact. The 16 seed is 35-25 against the 17 seed. Better than expected for a toss up match. In spite of earning the extra half to one advancement point, the 16 seed scores less than the 17.

Chad Zaputil (Iowa) was the #1 seed. He lost in the final to Henson. That was his third straight finals lose, once as the #3, once as the #2, once as the #1. Lou Rosselli (Edinboro) was the #2 seed. He lost in the semis to Henson.

That there is some good sleuthing

Since when does the White House determine the tax status of entities? This is a pretty dumb debate about a very dumb concept.

Indeed. Just like a Chinese businessman filled Trump's money void.

Henson also had 11 pinfalls that season.

So stipulated.

I have two for you to mortgage everything and buy: $TRUMP : https://gettrumpmemes.com/#tokenomics $MELANIA : https://www.coinbase.com/price/melania-meme These are can't miss opportunities. This is in no way Trump taking advantage of the gullible, and stupid, or those looking to pay bribes. I did not mean to scare you though, you can still pay bribes, so don't worry about that. But if you want pay bribes, he has a different cryptocurrency for that. World Liberty Financial : https://www.worldlibertyfinancial.com/ Pro tip: If you are a Chinese businessman currently under investigation by the SEC and you want that investigation to stop, this is definitely the currency for you. Now you may note that the first two links are for COINBASE where you can buy and sell the coins, but the third link is not an exchange since you can only buy, and never sell, the third coin. If you are looking to sell, you have clearly missed the point, and this cryptocurrency is not for you. Who even let you in here?

I had this grand plan to fill in all the blanks for the Hodge Trophy from 1928 to 1994. I kinda dropped the ball after 1994, but thanks to a timely reminder from @11986 and @NotThatDave we are back with year two in the series. To review, 1994 saw Pat Smith run away with the Intermat Hodge Trophy. He collected a 53.57% of the votes. Runner-up, Lincoln McIlravy, has a third as many. As with 1994, I will list the ten (or in earlier years, more or less) individual weight champions as our finalists. Vote early, don't vote often, and let your keyboard be heard.

Thanks for the reminder. I was going to do this for all the years during the off season.

No, but a 33 did AA

There is a pigtail match where #32 wrestles #33 for the right to wrestle #1 in round 1.
