Kazak knows ducks. Brooks being smarts. Wins 4-2 with gimme step out at end. Damn, 4-3 due to caution.

That was a sweet TD by Brooks. Nice finish. 4-1.

Thanks for obeying.

Well, Brooks has smiles. Now need offense.

Let’s go Brooks!!!!

Japan is in repechage? What did I miss? Or is this not a repechage bout?

She started well. And then the tide to turned big time. Mongolia figure her out?

@scourge165 is right. She trapped the arm and then cranked. No attempt to throw it by. Watching it again right now. Looks like clear attempt to harm to me.

It’s a move? Ok. She tried to have the India wrestler’s elbow go against its natural range of motion. Very quickly. And she succeeded. Tucked in the arm and made it hard to release. Ugly.

Losing 8-2 with < 1 min to go … India has underhook. North Korea keeps it in tight and controls arm. Then quickly wrenches body around and causes India Elbow to bend out of place. Hurts bad. Dirty move. Very purposeful. It worked for NK. Was losing 8-2. India in a lot of pain and emotional but tries. Can’t hold on. NK wins 10-8. Indian woman sobbing on mat. Really sucks. That crap needs to stop.

I’m guessing everyone that says Bo Bassett is just a kid building his social media and isn’t narcissistic- you old folk just don’t understand. These young people are embracing social media, leave them alone old person!

Seems like the crew doing that are bullies. Aim to offend the group that will simply wimper over it. Why didn’t they dress up in drag and stage a scene from the Koran? Have the lady be Mohammed.

More Instagram posts with team / teams having some fun together and no Brooks. Dude just super locked in?

Ahhh, interesting … and a seemingly tough choice. To be clear, they could avoid paying players and still compete at NCAA championships? Obviously at a distinct disadvantage recruiting wise. I wonder if schools that do this would effectively drop from D1. Perhaps have own championship. Eh, probably not. Wow - really curious how this will unfurl.

Thanks for this. It is making me think of the ivies. Wonder how they are thinking about this.

Thank you!! I appreciate this. Very clear. I did see mention of an exception on 30 person limit if not sharing revenue or something like that? Can you clarify this? Is this a decision for all sports at school? For example can the school say will follow the rule for Football but will not with wrestling? Can school find a way to give scholarships and NOT abide by the 30 person limit? And so, can they give any number of scholarships? I’m going to extremes to understand the limits. Say I donated $100M to a school and it is just for wrestling and field hockey scholarships … can they do something to actually give 50 scholarships to wrestlers and 50 to field hockey players and thumb their nose at these rules above?

If someone finds a well done wrestling impact specific article on this topic, please post.

Being pointed out that he is not in the mens freestyle team pics today. He good?

The degree of tortured logic to somehow suggest Yazdani could be considered better than Taylor is laughable.

@RockLobster is a clear idiot. Worse, is a clear idiot that loves to shout the idiocy to others. This thing still have an ignore function?

You make a fair point but miss the failed effort to ensure logical firing locations are clear, protected and or observed. One of the very few nearby roofs was left alone. Note a good look. Seems incompetent on its face. (And if that BBC interviewee is right, local police join this club as well). What I wrote is a prediction. But I do agree that more info is needed before knowing if firings should actually occur.

Until any actual evidence to the contrary arrives, I agree. The secret service will be excoriated for this, as they should be. A poor job. People will be fired.

Seriously? The world is flat. We didn’t land on the moon. Newtown school massacre didn’t happen. Many revolting and stupid conspiracy theories out there.

Thank you @VakAttack. The collective IQ of society is being dragged down by arm chair conspiracy theorists that see conspiracies in everything and try to sow doubt and confusion. Well before they do solid research using verified information. For those that do this - you actually are an ass. You add no positive value to the society you live in. You actually are a negative addition to it. Fine to be cynical but you go way beyond that.

You actually bet that the secret service fired into the crowd. Ok. You really are making yourself the poster child of conspiracy crazy whack jobs.
