  1. That was a bad look for Dake though… I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone yell so much, and I really don’t think he had a legitimate point
  2. Wow!! Dake should’ve got pissed against Takatani
  3. Shouldn’t have challenged and at all and Dake would be in the lead!
  4. Wow that’s bad. Get it together Dake
  5. Awesome match! Congrats to Blades!
  6. Wow. Bummer. We’ve got to make some adjustments
  7. Let’s go Snyder! I think Taz is hurting a bit and he looked a little vulnerable. We need Captain America to get us back on track!
  8. Wow! That was impressive! Hopefully that shuts up everyone giving Zain crap… maybe he lost just because Amouzad is really freakin good!
  9. Definitely a lot is the culture… they value hard work and dedication. They value wrestling and put a big emphasis on technique. However, you have to include the influence of genetics as well. Like Jamaican sprinters, the Japanese wrestlers are very quick! There’s only so much you can do to train that… sometimes you have it or you don’t
  10. Seems like that’s what he wants to do first period and then tries open things up second period. Might not be a bad strategy… we shall see
  11. Muz vs Aliyev one of the best matches so far. I get the impression they don’t like each other lol. Muz is just so stinkin explosive when he goes
  12. Blades survives but does not look like she did first round
  13. Rivera wrestled tough!
  14. So even Zain gets pulled in, he’d have to beat Musakaev for bronze
  15. Ugh, frustrating. Amouzad is just better. Hope he can make it to the finals… won’t be easy but he’s got a good shot
  16. How is a singlet grab not a caution and 1?!
  17. Snyder with a great comeback and Blades out there almost literally killing her opponent That double and then the best throw of the tournament! Go back and watch it if you didn’t see it…incredible! Hope her opponent is ok!
  18. He will claw back
  19. Yeah I think that was 4 blue. Yikes!
  20. Wow. Valiev destroys Kadzi. Wins by tech off a challenge, but actually pinned him earlier and the ref missed it
  21. Did you predict Sarah to win gold? Or the Bulgarian at 86? Yeah didn’t think so. You never know what’s going to happen. That’s why they wrestle.
  22. Wow that is sad. With the heat Cael has taken so far, I’ll add a compliment… he definitely gets his guys to focus on more than just wins and losses
  23. In four years he might be too young for the Olympics
  24. Agreed. One thing I really like is that he is constantly improving. I believe he listened to the criticism that he talked about himself a little too much at NCAAs and made some adjustments. There were plenty of opportunities to insert himself into the conversation and he didn’t do it this time. Kudos to him. He’s always be fantastic for our sport. Also, you have to keep in mind he had his heart set on competing here and trying to finish with one more Olympic gold. I’m sure he’s still heartbroken over it and those thoughts creep up being in the arena and watching. He’s be extremely professional about it all. I really wish he could’ve got the perfect swan song this weekend, but it just wasn’t meant to be I guess
  25. I know it’s not prime time or anything, but they just put on the American medal matches on regular NBC over the air… pretty cool you can watch wrestling with just an antenna! Thanks to NBC for giving the sport some good coverage!
