  1. How about the rule change to if you get pushed out, 1 point and par terre? mspart
  2. I am sorry to say that I have searched all over the internet for that story. It used to be there but I am not searching correctly. As I remember it, the OSU wrestlers were playing something on a field. Nick Simmons had a problem with one of them and decked him. Zalesky did nothing. It is probably discussed on the old themat or theopenmat forums. But they are gone now. Simmons should not have done what he did and Zalesky should have fired him on the spot. On theopenmat forum we had a dad in Oregon that was wary of Zalesky and actually pulled his kid out of the program, not just due to this but to other things his kid said were going on. It was a bad situation there and Zalesky could have been a man and did something about it, but he couldn't have cared less about anything. That became apparent about 5 years into his time there. mspart
  3. When we moved from Huntsville AL in 1973 to Seattle, there were no BBQ places. Now we were from Seattle but were in AL for 10 years. My dad would hear of a place with good BBQ and it was a piece of meat with BBQ sauce on it. It is better here now. We had a neighbor that was a BBQ dude and he is pretty good. We are almost that good with our little smoker. Good BBQ is beyond description. mspart
  4. I have a cheap smoker, propane, one can, meat above the burner. Wood chips above the burner too. Have smoked brisket, pork butt, a Turkey, and steak. All came out good except the steak was way well done as I didn't watch it very closely. The meat still was good even well done. I haven't had a miss yet and I am way below novice in this arena. Smoking meat is just awesome!! Great idea for a new topic HuskerDu. mspart
  5. Thee Feds didn't have much to go on his Mom until that. That is what made it a federal case. She is facing federal charges of falsifying the document, same as Hunter. They are not prosecuting her for the gun that shot a teacher, but that she got that gun illegally, same as Hunter. It is the state that has the law that they will go after the parent if they leave a firearm where a minor can get at it and use it. Totally different cases. The Feds are charging her with falsifying the data on that form, same as Hunter did. There is no difference in context. Only a difference in outcomes, at this point. The case against Hunter in this regard has gone on longer than the case against this Mom. According to https://news.yahoo.com/hunter-biden-reportedly-violated-federal-152649044.html He filled out the form in 2018, but was kicked out of the military in 2014 for drug use. This article was written Mar 2021. According to https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/shooting-virginia-elementary-school-leaves-1-adult-injured-rcna64695 The boy shot the teacher on 06 Jan 2023. So this did not require years of study etc, the Feds indicted her within 6 months of the event. The Feds have known about Hunter's very similar lie since at least Mar 2021 and probably earlier. Yet, funny enough, no action has been taken in the 2 years since. Context is a funny thing. It is a felony to lie on the background check. Apparently more so for the Mom than for Hunter. They did the same thing and the consequences are vastly different. mspart
  6. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/beer-wars-bud-light-loses-top-spot-to-modelo-in-may-144733135.html Beer wars: Bud Light loses top spot to Modelo in May Bud Light now holds 7.3% of total US beer market retail sales, Modelo moved up to the No. 1 spot with 8.4%. Move over Bud Light, Modelo is now No. 1. The Constellation Brands (STZ) beer knocked off previous leader Bud Light (BUD), which has been embroiled in a boycott from the likes of Kid Rock over an endorsement from a transgender TikTok influencer — and possibly a reverse boycott from the LGBTQ community. In the four-week period ending June 3, Modelo Especial made its way to the top. Modelo holds 8.4% of total retail sales in the US beer market. That's compared to Bud Light, which now holds 7.3%, per Nielsen and Bump Williams Consulting. At the start of the year, Bud Light held a 10.3% share, higher compared to Modelo, 7.5%. The future looks bright. mspart
  7. For the reasons above, I have not yet subscribed to flo. msprt
  8. Both are federal situations. It did not take 5 years for the Newport News Mom to get indicted after they found out she lied on the federal arms form. If they will roll all of Hunter's gun and tax issues into one big indictment, then I guess that would work. I'm not getting the feeling they are moving with any discernible speed on this. But boy, did they move on the Mom. mspart
  9. Our America should have a blind justice system. You break the law, you are charged with a crime. If it is good enough for some lady in Newport News, it is good enough for Hunter. Shouldn't Our America have a system of justice that is equal for all? They are not even pretending that anymore. mspart
  10. Ok, thanks for that TR. So the coaches are on administrative leave. What else should be done? Innocent until proven guilty correct? So they stay on administrative leave until they find enough evidence to charge or don't. After I left my HS, we had a new coach come in that was my brother's coach. Apparently he had an assistant who beat up the kids regularly, showing them that he was meaner and tougher than the HS kids. I would count that as assault too. I was in college when that happened so wasn't anywhere near and only heard about it after the coach was let go and my brother told me. I'm not big on assault, especially from a coach. That's why I was incensed about what Zalesky allowed at OSU when Nick Simmons was assistant there. I can't find a link but it happened and that was my turnaround on Zalesky. I was very happy he was fired from there. mspart
  11. Yeah, I was saying earlier was that they need to increase the points needed to tech fall. Otherwise I think there will be a lot more tech falls. mspart
  12. What is this about? I haven't heard of this. mspart
  13. Happy Flag Day everybody!! mspart
  14. https://www.wtkr.com/news/mother-of-6-year-old-that-shot-newport-news-teacher-facing-federal-gun-drug-charges NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — The mother of the 6-year-old boy accused of shooting his teacher on January 6, 2023, is now facing federal gun and drug charges. Federal documents outline how Deja Taylor is accused of knowing she was an unlawful user of marijuana when she possessed and purchased a gun from a gun shop in Grafton, Virginia. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/10/hunter-biden-may-be-hit-with-tax-and-gun-charges-report.html Federal agents investigating Hunter Biden believe they have enough evidence to charge him with lying on his taxes and on an application to purchase a gun, according to the Washington Post. The possible gun charge involves Biden’s answer on a federal firearms-licensing form that asks if the applicant is “an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance.” He reportedly answered “no” when purchasing a firearm in 2018 despite having chronicled his addiction to crack cocaine. So why is an unknown Mom in Newport News facing federal gun charges for lying on her federal gun purchase form and Hunter Biden is not for the same thing? Maybe he will, and he should. But he is high profile and she is not. It is things like this that are extremely concerning. Both broke the law, one is paying for it, the other is not. One is unknown, the other the son of the sitting President. You do the math. mspart
  15. And that's the name of the game. Take the match out of the hands of the refs. Dominate. Then there is no question. I'm guessing this is easier said than done. mspart
  16. What change(s) are you talking about? mspart
  17. Snyder has been consistent since 2015. He has medalled in each WC or Olympics since then. That is pretty darn incredible. mspart
  18. As well he should. That should not happen and should be clearly dealt with out in the open. Interesting how we came around again to all this. mspart
  19. Why would they not have the proper scoring equipment? How long has USAW been in the business of international wrestling? I'm not one to complain about this kind of thing really, but with scoring changing every few years, maybe it is too much to invest in when it will go obsolete soon. mspart
  20. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you very much!! mspart
  21. Yikes, and people think there are crazies here. Those are some real crazies. mspart
