  1. A little fast and loose. Joe Smith won the wrestle off with Chandler Rogers.
  2. If anything Mesenbrink has regressed at PSU. He had nothing but pinfalls at Cal Baptist
  3. You are babbling more than normal tonight.
  4. I never took instruction well. You should probably just hit me with the stall.
  5. I find the Angel Rivera complaints to be unwarranted. He does a fine job.
  6. A lot of times it is for the coach's benefit. Makes them feel like they are coaching. I knew a high school soccer coach who said practice is where coaching happens. Games are where the players figure it out and coaches take notes for what to work on at the next practice. He said his first game in charge he got yelled at by the school principal because he wasn't "coaching" during the game.
  7. Why bother?
  8. Bartlett is waaaaaaay more boring.
  9. Ohio State consecutives D'Emilio and Sasso
  10. Same team, also consecutive. Van Dee and Hardy
  11. The Starocci tweet is very weird given that he had previously bragged about getting the largest NIL. But then self awareness has never been his strong point. Folkstyle wrestling on the other hand...
  12. Very good, from scratch food. Another place to consider is in Bellefonte. Axeman Brewery. Especially in the summer and especially when they have live music.
  13. Ypu both clearly have no answers. Not unlike Trump.
  14. Stella got her groove back.
  15. He may have said they could, but did Egypt or Jordan say they could? These are sovereign countries. Egypt has a population around 120 million. Jordan has a population around 10 million. How will they absorb 2 million people? Where will they house them? And what will they do with this extra housing when they are gone. How will their infrastructure support them? Will new hospitals, schools, transportation systems, etc. be built for them? Do they get jobs with these new modern homes in beautiful communities? Do they pay taxes? Or do they get welfare? If so, who pays for that? Are they citizens? Can they vote in elections? And when Gaza is rebuilt do they move back in? For free? Or do they need to re-buy the buildings that got bombed out from under them? And where do they get the money for that?
  16. Just realistic. He aint Jesus. He had to give away something very valuable to get this debt sold. Equity in xAi is a very valuable asset.
  17. That is kind of the point. Trump has not asked them what their plans are. Instead he has made up a fictional beautiful community with new modern homes, that rather inconveniently do not exist. Neither the land nor the homes.
  18. Tell me more about these "more beautiful communities, with new and modern homes, in the region." And tell me how you plan to relocate people who do not want to be relocated.
  19. That is earnings BEFORE interest. With $13 billion in new debt and an annual interest charge of a little over $1.2 billion, they really only broke even. The good news is there is enough revenue to service the debt now. There is no doubt that Musk's decision to align himself completely with Trump, including providing massive financing to his campaign (where is @Paul158 with his outcries of buying votes now?) and Trump's very transactional nature, has made it difficult for companies to not do business with Musk. But the reason the debt is able to move at these prices is because Musk included an xAI equity kicker to get the deal done.
  20. If you are ever in scenic downtown Pleasant Gap, PA (home of the American Top Team gym) stop in the Red Horse Tavern across the street. If you are looking to move up a weight. This is your place.
  21. Betting wrestling duals without knowing who the starters are is a fool's errand.
  22. Of the current crop of teams vying for the fourth spot Northern Iowa is on the longest streak without making the podium Minnesota - 2nd 2014 Nebraska - 4th 2009 Northern Iowa - 4th 1953 (when they were Iowa Teachers) Ohio State - 4th 2023 Virginia Tech - 4th 2016 I am pulling hard for Northern Iowa this, both as a lover of underdogs and as a lover of symmetry. With PSU the prohibitive favorites this year a fourth place finish for UNI would match the 1953 placements: "For the first time in 23 years of tournament competition, the National Collegiate wrestling championship belongs to the East. Charlie Speidel's Penn State matmen, unbeaten since 1950 and three times Eastern champions,' deposed Oklahoma in the 1953 tourney at State College, Pa., March 27-28. Virtually every. record of the tournament was shattered as the host team rolled up 21 points to 15 for runner-up Oklahoma. There were 208 matches, 127 on opening day, as entries reached an all-time high of 166. Attendance at the four sessions climbed to a new high of 15,000. The East, which waited until 1951 to cop more than one individual title and until 1952 to gain three, walked off with five individual crowns as Cornell took two, Pittsburgh, Penn State and Lock Haven State one each. Only one of three defending titlists-Hugh Peery, Pittsburgh 115-pounder- retained his crown as Joe Lemyre, Penn State's 167-pounder and Gene Nicks. Oklahoma A&M heavyweight, were defeated. Even the outstanding wrestler award came to the East when Frank Bettucci, Cornell 147-pounder, was accorded this distinction. Cornell's Don Dickason, who had eliminated Joe Lemyre in the semi-final round, clinched the team title for Penn State when he won a referee's decision over Oklahoma's Frank Marks in the 167-pound' final. But it remaine~ for Hud Samson, Lion 191-pounder, to set off the celebration when he pinned his opponent in the next-to-last bout on Saturday night's card. An overflow crowd of 6,000 was on hand for the final session." This year, Cael Sanderson will hope to become his generation's Charlie Speidel.
  23. One of the signs of age related decline is the lose of filter. Trump says whatever pops into his head without the ability to control the idea long enough to think it through. Then he and his staff spend their time either walking it back if it is too ludicrous (move Palestinians to some fictional "good, fresh, beautiful piece of land"), or doubling down if it plays to their base and requires no action in the real world ("they are eating cats and dogs in Ohio"). Add on top that Trump just listens to the last person in the room, like an old man in decline, and you get a press conference with Netanyahu at his side struggling to contain his glee over how easy it has become to manipulate and use Trump.
