    Pls explain what he said that points to Kasak vs wrestlers in general? Seems like you are projecting what you want to project.

    Can someone connect the dots for me with what Shapiro said? What did he say that suggested ANY particular wrestler? He was talking about ideas moving up to 165 but can make 149. Then some guys may or may not be taking steroids - wink wink. Where is is accusing any particular wrestler? Please - need help here. Some are saying he is talking about Kasak - pls be clear on what he said that would suggest that.

    Enjoyed Philly. Good place for NCAAs. Not as awesome as KC but very good. Easy in an out on the Septa line. Downtown - lots of life and food / drink options. But do need to get away from Arena to find stuff. And the smell of Pot was pretty much everywhere. That said —- place is good for big upsets putting chinks in the armor of legends. Bubba / Taylor … now Wyatt / Gable. Had a great time. Thanks Philly!!

    I get it, my love of Gable dropped. But I don’t dislike him and don’t root against him. Fairly irrational to hate a guy for taking some risks and trying to succeed as they define it.

    Human psychology is at play in the Hodge, big time. #1 Wyatt’s mega explosion at NCAAs will have a lasting mental effect. #2 I imagine there is some Penn State fatigue. #3 I think most, when think hard about it, think that 5 titles is bull poop. Any of the priors with 4 would be heavy favorites to get 5. Not a big deal. I think these heavily lean Wyatt.

    Maybe because he is a Penn State guy and people are tired of their dominance. I’d like to see him come back. I think we need him on the world stage.

    Eh, security was not an issue … yes took a bit longer to get in but glad they are being careful. For me, not worth a moment of complaining. Yes, some overlap. But not a big deal for me. Small price to pay to have POTUS attend the championships. A pretty damn big deal for ‘our’ sport. Great recognition. High honor. Note, I’m referring to the role of POTUS. Not the actual person in the role now.

    The villain? Where you seeing that? Some wackjobs on this board? Come on. Get your head out of your forum posting ass. People love the underdog. And Wyatt hype has been built up. Was fun and exciting to see the underdog beat the champ. No hate on Gable. I get some may not be big fans of Gable. I’m not one. But villain? That’s ridiculous.

    Not sure what you mean. Pls clarify.
  10. Dark Energy
    Reaction time? I don’t think so. It settled in for a bit. There was a pause before the TD was given. Anyone have another reason? Really feeling this was a crap call reversal. Is ref association required to explain?

    Loved when Vito told Crookham to get the F to center mat and wrestle. So many just backed to edge and stayed there I was expecting the offensive opponent to just go back to center and point to mat in front of them. Make opponent get there and highlight to ref the stalling that was occurring by the other guy backing up. Showy? Yes. But it is a great way to tell the ref to wake up and call the stalling.

    Can someone please explain how the Henson TD was overturned? In front, had both legs, opponent on butt, Henson head down between opponents legs. What was precisely different from the rule they put in after Jordan Oliver match?
  13. Dark Energy
    I don’t know that I see any casualty linking the 3 pt to fewer TD attempts. Can someone explain the rationale? I do agree that a 3 or 2 pt margin does promote stalling at end. Which is pissing me off.
  14. Dark Energy
    Well, that would do it for the new Captain America.
  15. Dark Energy
    Someone have his pin and tech count? Thinking Hodge is his.
  16. Dark Energy
    Lovett / Henson. Snore until the end. When Henson is robbed. Crap way to highlight wrestling
  17. Dark Energy
    The better wrestler lost
  18. Dark Energy
    Someone please please explain how that TD was overturned? Henson was the only one attacking in that match.
  19. Dark Energy
    Finally!!! Thank you Mendez & Hardy!!!
  20. Dark Energy
    And finally, excitement in OT. Ayala OOB many times to evade being scored on. No calls, again and again. And finally a stall and a point … lots of activity from Ayala then. I’m liking the freestyle idea of no tie after a couple minutes.
  21. Dark Energy
    4/5 through match 3 (Byrd / Ayala) - snore. Finally something happens. Not good for the sport.
  22. Dark Energy
    At 2025 championships - Matches boring. Need more incentive to try to score. Refs not forcing action
  23. Dark Energy
    Are you sitting with Iowa people? I’m not. Saw and heard fans all around including in Penn State section. Other Iowa wrestlers got 1/3 the applause or less.
  24. Dark Energy
    And the squad is kicking ass in third place bouts. Amazing.
  25. Dark Energy
    Yes, best team ever. 8 in top 4!!! Others top 6!! Holy crap!!! Yes, no doubt best overall team ever. No debate.
