Something the NCAA championships don't need tonight
mspart replied to SocraTease's topic in College Wrestling
Glad to hear it. mspart -
Actually 8 of 10 3rd placers this time lost in the championship semi finals. That's the data for what its worth. mspart

Was it worth it for Lee to forfeit if it saved his knees from further danger and allow his Olympic aspirations to take flight? I'm guessing this was his thought process. mspart

Yeah, that's what I remember!! mspart

I said nothing about first amendment rights. Why derail with a baseless accusatory question. Who do you know that defends to the death someone's right to free speech these days? Are you denying that Twitter and Facebook banned and censored? If so you are living in dream world. Look at college campuses. Protests are one thing but what happened at UC Davis just recently does not constitute a protest. Egg throwing, pepper spraying, cop beating, these are not people willing to defend your right to say what is on your mind. And this is not isolated to UC Davis. You can google it and find examples of excessive protests that move to assault based on who is speaking. https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article273154315.html The ideal of stating your opinion and that being the end of it is no longer valid. You have people on this board who slammed Pres Trump from attending the NCAAs, who vociferously wanted Brooks not to say what he said and think he should be expelled for breaking PSU code of conduct rules. Are they these saints you think who protect free speech? You can state your opinion on Twitter or Facebook as long as it doesn't contradict what the monitors and algorithms want you to say. If you disagree with that statement, you are not paying attention. NYPost was a big loser with their Hunter Biden story. It was cleared out of Twitter and every post defending it was erased as well. The subject could not be discussed. It was Russia disinformation except it wasn't. FBI has acknowledged that the laptop belonged to Hunter and Hunter is even suing about it, acknowledging that it is his laptop. Else why would he sue? But you could not say that on Twitter or Facebook after the NY Post story broke. Wasn't allowed. But they will fight to the death to protect your right to speak your mind. Yeah right. And the last of the Twitter files from Taibi show that the Federal Government was in on the censoring. By understood law, that is not allowed. Yet it was and is. Where do you find the reporting on this from Taibi? You will not find it on Mainstream media because they don't want to discuss it. You can find it at Fox, NY Post, Twitter and not much else. https://www.foxnews.com/media/latest-twitter-files-tackle-great-covid-19-lie-machine-flagging-true-content-disinformation https://nypost.com/2023/03/17/private-federal-censorship-machine-targeted-true-misinformation/ https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/mar/17/twitter-files-vast-censor-project-unleashed-agains/ As for the Hunter Biden laptop issue, please see the following: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Biden_laptop_controversy https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/03/17/hunter-biden-lawsuit-computer-repairman/ mspart

The Republican Primary is going to be insane.
mspart replied to VakAttack's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
I would agree. Except Trump can easily knock himself out of contention even without DeSantis. All he has to do is go off script with one of his crazy things he says and I think it will remind everyone how much he can derail himself. mspart -
Yes it has happened before. Those that did it are incredible I think. mspart

mspart replied to SocraTease's topic in College Wrestling
I can be on board with this train of thought. But that is not where Jammen was coming from I suspect. But I could be wrong. mspart -
That does not apply anymore. It is a great ideal. It was all the rage in the 90s. A mere 20 years from then and we are on the other side where what you say can get you banned from Twitter and Facebook and have lasting consequences from one of the intolerant sides of the political debate. mspart

Something the NCAA championships don't need tonight
mspart replied to SocraTease's topic in College Wrestling
Jammen, If they said that, I'm wondering why that would be offensive to you. If any other ex-President showed up and NCAA said the same thing, would you have a problem with that? Do you have a problem with Trump attending, or would it be offensive to you for any ex- President to attend? I'm really not sure where you are trying to go with this. I said Trump can go where he wants as a private citizen. He should not be excluded, as long as he pays the entry fee, he is free to attend. People are free to attend too. If it had been Obama, would the NCAA be wrong to point that out and suggest folks get a pic with him? Other than invading his privacy (which may have been the intent to which you would applaud I'm sure), what harm is there in doing that? mspart -
Looking at the brackets I am always interested who lost their first match and made it to AA. It appears that only one person did that this year. 184 (11) Gavin Kane UNC - took 8th. There were a number of folks that AA'd after winning their first match but losing their second. But I am only listing the guy that went the furthest after losing their first match. I say congrats to Gavin in his Herculean effort to come back from a 1st round loss and come back to AA. mspart

The Republican Primary is going to be insane.
mspart replied to VakAttack's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
As for the Primary being insane, we have Trump, Ramaswami (sp), and Haley so far. Doesn't sound like a huge barn burner to me. What I do think will happen is Trump will overshoot and folks will just be sick of him. I have to say I liked what he did from a policy point of view while in office, but I do not like the man. I wish he would just go away. mspart -

DeSantis hasn't even said he is running and the attack dogs are already on the move. Crazy. mspart -

mspart replied to SocraTease's topic in College Wrestling
Yeah, I noticed that too. As for any controversy, Trump is a private citizen and can go where he wants. He pays the entry fee, he gets in. It really is pretty simple. Making this about politics is ridiculous. Did anything happen that wouldn't have happened if Trump was not there? In a bad way I mean, other than folks wanting to get an autograph or a pic. mspart -
It is Monday now and I am going to go out on a limb and and say Sasso did not prevail. Just a guess on my part, but I think I have good reason to say so. mspart

Its called playing politics on both sides. mspart

I think this statement is objectively true. I don't know Plasi personally, but from what I have seen from his posts, this rings true. mspart

https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/16/politics/house-gop-memo-biden-family/index.html House Oversight Republicans said in a new memo issued Thursday that members of President Joe Biden’s family received just over $1 million indirectly from a Chinese company – the committee’s latest disclosure in its investigation into the Biden family’s business dealings. The memo, which representatives for the White House and Hunter Biden’s legal team quickly dismissed, does not provide any evidence tying the payments directly to President Joe Biden, which Republicans have said is the purpose of their investigation. The memo names Hallie Biden, the widow of the president’s son Beau Biden, as a previously unknown recipient of payments from Biden family associate John Robinson Walker, who wired members of Biden’s family money after receiving $3 million a China-based company. Hallie Biden and Hunter Biden, the president’s younger son, were romantically involved for a period after Beau Biden’s death. The House Oversight Committee quietly subpoenaed Bank of America for the financial records of three of Hunter Biden’s associates, including Walker, on February 27, which is how it obtained these records. mspart

BREAKING : Previously Unseen January 6th Footage
mspart replied to headshuck's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
This is what now constitutes valid debate. A question is asked, it is not closely responded to, and the topic goes to who is more stupider than the other estupido. And then the question doesn't even have to be addressed. mspart -
Still a pretty incredible stat. PSU brought 9 to the dance and 7 are still jitterbugging. That is pretty good and explains why they win the team competition most of the time. They wrestle at or above their seed. 7 of 9 in the semis is pretty incredible. Only one of them is out. Dean still has the opportunity to be AA. So 7 or 8 out of 9 AA. That's pretty good! mspart

Perhaps I just don't read as well as you Mike. But it looks to me that you quoted me. Perhaps you mistakenly quoted me and thought you were quoting Plasi. mspart
