Mine was just lazy accounting. I had things I could have written off and didn't on a 1099.

I had to mail the IRS $600 today

The only reason it matters to the administration at ASU is because they had a major donor leave and apparently several others who Zeke turned off have stopped writing checks. Again this is all second or third hand information. The consistent story is that some felt Zeke had run his course and wanted to shift him into something else, and go after a big name like Taylor. Zeke didn't want that and since the university has no reason to get rid of him, the people who write the checks couldn't actually force him out. So now we see what happened with Parco and Teemer leaving, now Figs, and Schultz almost leaving.

If what I am hearing is accurate, and this is from multiple people who are in different circles, if they bought him out it wouldn't come from ASU. Zeke isn't under the same scrutiny as Hurley is. UofA doesn't have wrestling, so there's not a lot of pressure to do much other than have an AA or more per year, and nobody gets arrested off the mat. It's really a sweet gig Zeke has, and him not wanting to leave is a sign of how good he has it.

Hearing things about this already

Somebody closer to it explained that Martori wanted certain things done and that ASU was not going to stay in the Pac 12, so they needed to get new blood as far as a coach. Zeke basically refused, and again this is what somebody closer to it told me, so Martori "retired" and shut down Sunkist, partially because of that. Word was they wanted to pursue Taylor or somebody like that. Zeke felt he should go on his own terms and that's where the disagreement was.

Best to ever beat you (more post-NCAA banter)

I lost to Cheney Haight by tech fall once. Also once took a loss to Neal Rodak in 2003 or 2004, not a tech fall but fairly one sided. -
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/nov/22/john-allen-chau-man-killed-by-tribe-north-sentinel-island-declare-jesus This idiot got himself un-alived trying to force them to worship Jesus. https://people.com/american-youtuber-arrested-north-sentinel-island-diet-coke-11709703 And this moron went to go give them a Diet Coke and got completely ignored. Still got arrested because it's illegal to go to that island. Maybe take a hint that the people there don't want outsiders there and might kill you?

If they got captured they aren't heroes either.

What will they have to bitch about ???

In the early 90s, Trump found himself the owner of a personal debt of $900 million. That's not the companies he owns. At the time, his companies were in $3.5 billion of corporate debt. No, he himself owed almost a billion dollars personally after somehow convincing the world he was worth more than NASA's 30-year Voyager missions to Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus. You could offer to buy everyone in the United States a drink and not owe as much money as he did. He could have personally cancelled out the Seychelles' economy by moving there. While sane men with jobs can't borrow a few grand, a man who's filed more 11's than a fantasy soccer manager was allowed to spend the lifetime income of over five hundred of them before anyone noticed he didn't actually have it. The corporate debts equal the entire education budget of two states, meaning society would actually have seen the exact same fiscal return if they'd invested the money in educating millions of children. And people still lend him money today. Enjoy that thought as you chew dry macaroni to pay off your student loans. -

It's like a guy who has declared bankruptcy 6 times isn't the most financially savvy person? Who knew? -
HS: 112-112-160-135*. I was injured junior year and wrestled one match on JV at 160. Didn't wrestle senior year because of an eligibility issue but would have gone 135 most likely. Post HS: 141, 132, 184.

This is a man who considers owing someone almost a trillion dollars as the time to start playing tough. If Trump was flushed out of an airliner and you tried to sell him a parachute on the way down, he'd sue you for implying he could fly.

Wisconsin Landslide: Referendum Against Trump/Musk
Tripnsweep replied to red viking's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Friend of mine looked at the data. Not going to be a pleasant ride going into 2026. -
I know of a local guy, made a fortune through some less than ethical means, and became a far to the right Republican who actually changed his name legally so it would sound more like a campaign slogan. He had never played sports, but man did he love to act tough and like a big shot because his son wrestled. I don't typically root against kids, but it was satisfying to see his reaction when his kid got upset in the first round at state, after he'd spent all year bragging to anyone who'd listen about how much money he spent and all the things he bought for his kid to win a state championship. He was an election denier before it was cool, after he got trounced in a primary, and I wanted to say he should sue for a rematch.
