Maxwell Smart

Cathy Lee clearly demonstrated how Hawkeye fan acts after a loss. Her son dominates for years and he gets pinned and the craziness ensues. He still hasn't recovered, which is a shame in itself.

"We are ( not We're) busy piling on the turdbiscuit." and "we still haven't resolved the possibility that Maxwell is a turdbiscuit cinnabon offspring." is the deluded banter addressed. I explained who I was but, unsurprisingly, it's not accepted. Not an Iowa bashfest? Only to a Hawkeye.

Joined the forum on Monday and based on the replies, there's no way this will be a fair vote. Some of the responses were humorous, but some were deluded. I learned that the conjecture was all in the name of "banter," more rhetorical than any thing else. Somehow having 2 individual champions in 10 years not named Spencer Lee instead of 1 rendered the position that Tom Brands and the Hawkeyes underachieve moot. That's just total bias IMO. Hawkeye fans will run over Ban, he has no chance.

Sounds like a topic for Jagger's mailbag. Very interesting topic.

The website, it's where this all began. Had no idea it would cause the response it has. Thanks.

Steamboat - If your going to quote someone, use the exact words and try using quotations marks.

Maxwell, when you say anything about the Hawkeyes, you will be viciously attacked by fans who are so angry that their dynasty ended years ago. They will attack their enemy with crazy "God above all" insanity to justify their hate and above all their envy. You will rise above it all. Agent 86's response "And loving it."

Thanks for the hilarious posts. I'm a senior citizen in Tucson and have been following wrestling since high school. I'm not an Iowa hater and, not knowing about forums, was sending emails to the intermat "contact us" because I didn't know any better. When I complained about comments being blocked on the website, Willie suggested I join the forum. Not to wreak havoc, but to share my thoughts. There's a lot of Iowa coverage when they've underachieved with the top recruits they had/have and I cited examples going back 10 years. Other stories like a Sammy Sasso update would be nice on the website, now I know to go the forum. The mailbag consistently has non-wrestling stories that are sophomoric, can't questions be found that deal with wrestling? BAN responding to my comments when they were on the website, I have no idea who cinnaban was/ is. Still not sure. I'm a fan of great wrestling and wrestlers, so of course PSU is up there. When Vito took out Fox and RBY, I marveled at his achievement. Loved watching Spencer but when Ramos pinned him, I went nuts. That's what makes wrestling so great. I stated previously that I would learn from this forum, and, thanks to the responses, I have. Some of the conjecture has been very entertaining. The pictures and Get Smart references made me laugh out loud. Look forward to reading the forum. Thanks.

PJ. Thanks, that's just hilarious.

How does one "obviously" explain how Flo Wrestling is so much bigger than intermat? They cover wrestling at all levels. Each brings something different to the table which makes both a good read.

I should've clarified, it was back when intermat allowed feedback on their web page. I was Maxwellsmart1. Sorry, it wasn't cinnaban. Enjoy your evening.

Since you mentioned Ban, He set me straight several times. Hilarious post, time to move on. Thanks.

I'm new, I'll strive to be better.

There's no "dislike of the Hawks." They get more coverage than others and I don't understand it. I've learned a lot from responses of people. To quote my wife. "I'm not always right, it just seems that way." Look forward to the banter. Thanks.

Idaho. Post falls flat? 1 championship in 13 years and 1 NCAA champ not named Spencer Lee in 10 years? Just the facts.

Loved the "cone of silence" post. Was a classic when 86 demanded it.

Willie Saylor sent an email suggesting I join this forum, props to him. Obviously a great guy. The "Hawkeye Love" is non stop IMO. There're other teams and individuals that deserve mentioning. No arguing that the Hawks were once dominant and fun to watch, that was many years ago. OK State is in the same situation. I enjoy reading others opinions and always look to learn.

Thanks. I enjoy reading other's posts.

Don't understand your love for the Hawkeyes. They've won one national championship in the last 13 years and have one individual champion not named Spencer Lee in the last 10. Jagger "all eyes are on the Hawkeyes." Why? The Brands brothers are entertaining but their wrestlers underachieve. They're hoping to get A J Ferrari to wrestle with his brother (who is legit). How old will he be when he returns? Betting scandal suspension needs to come with a loss of one year eligibility, letting a person back one year older isn't fair to a kid coming out of high school.
