Graat memory. I say after you have cut weight made it through hundreds of grueling practices and wrestled against tough competition everything else seems a little easier.

I struggled in high school in the greater Cleveland ,Akron area in Ohio. I was 16 starting my senior year. Highest finish in any tournament was 3 rd. Missed going to state by one match. My district was tough . State champ ,3rd and 5th place finishers ( I finished 4th). In college attended a Junior college. Had 50 wins. Placed 2nd at CKLV Tournament to Joe Tice. Qualified for nationals twice. Placing 6th. Went into coaching wrestling. Did well. Lots of state champs and 2 all-American's. At 41 I laced the shoes up and along with taking 60 youth wrestlers from our state entered in the Open Div. at the AAU Nationals. After several wins and a pin I was in the finals against a 2 time Div.1 all-american and NCAA Champ Keith Stearns . Lost to Keith 4 to 2 in overtime in the finals.

Maybe they are cousins.

Yes please. By the way do you think 3 point tkd sounds an awful lot like ban basketball?

How stupid can Michigan be to be stealing (in illegal ways) signs from teams that they can easily beat straight up. Now they are under investigation again by the Big Ten and the NCAA.

Thank you for sharing. It was very insightful. Your families story is very similar to mine. I sometimes refer to it as breaking the chains of poverty. Who is willing to sacrifice through hard work, insurmountable odds to make a better life for themselves and their families? Not everyone understands this.

Doesn't 3 point tkd seem eerily similar to another poster that used to post on here every day?

Is it just me but doesn't 3 point tkd sound an awful lot like another poster that used to be on here every single day. His never ending rambling. His very dismissive responses to very well thought out common sense solutions is eerily familiar to you know who.

Mr3 point. Hope you are doing well. I've been reading your comments and I'm curious about your background. Maybe your education and what field of work you are presently in. You may take the 5th and that would be ok. Thanks.

The picture shown has a horse hit by an ambulance. the horse is underneath the ambulance. The right front of the ambulance is damaged. They must have used the wrong picture to depict an airstrike .There is no way that ambulance was hit by an air strike.

Personal responsibility used to hold a lot of weight. Integrity used to hold a lot of weight. Making well thought out smart financial decisions used to hold a lot of weight. Its sad that today in our society that many of these things don.t carry much weight.

If you look close you can see a horse under the Ambulance. The van hit the horse causing the damage to the Ambulance. I think if it was an airstrike the Ambulance would have been destroyed.

If you look close, you will see that ambulance hit and ran over a horse. that is what caused the damage to the Ambulance. Not a bomb or missile.

I would say it is close to criminal what the Democrats were doing with Feinstein in order to get her vote.

The IRS is already fully funded. The 80 billion came from the Reconciliation Bill .WE have added a little over 2 TRILLION DOLLARS to the National Debt in 2023. We still have 2 months to go. We are at 33 TRILLION Dollars in debt right now. Would it be fair to say we could easily cut back 500 billion dollars in spending. Then you have 100's of Billions of dollars in waste and fraud that never gets resolved. Then you have old Joe wanting to forgive 500 billion dollars of student loan debt. I have no problem if Joe and all of his buddies want to dig into their own pockets and payoff student loans but don't take my money to pay off the loans of others. Myself and my 5 children have all paid off their student loans. Its called personal responsibility. You signed for the loan ,you got the degree. You owe the money

Rightfully so. The military men and women are generally younger and in phenomenal shape. They were at the lowest risk of just about every group. I hope they all get reinstated with full pay.

Or .If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck. its a duck

China isn't communist. Unbelieveable.

I'll donate.

Absolutely they would not. they would become more violent.

Trying to figure this out on a forum behind a computer.

Another great job. Accepted.

We are living in some very strange (SAD ) times. The amount of hate and anger mixed some the highest severe mental illness IN THE WORLD might be one of the contributing factors. My son who is an officer in the military just had one of his soldiers commit suicide. He was young with a wife and two young children. He had suffered an injury that may have ended his career and he was struggling with that. So many questions . Not many answers.

Only a small handful of wrestlers had a chance to win 5 because the free year because of covid. So yes getting the 5th wouldn't be anything special . He knows it .
