  1. That would sever much of the funding to the rest of the world’s NGBs. If it’s not an Olympic sport, then they won’t get funded by their government and Olympic committees. I get the position, but it’s sport suicide on a global level.
  2. Columbia is in NYC … Hofstra is 20 miles outside of Manhattan. They served as the host institution in 2016.
  3. And absolutely ZERO technical support. I believe the project was created by a teacher and his students. It was the standard for a bit, but I always liked Kreider PC tournaments before everything was updated live. I ran a ton of tournaments with it a while back.
  4. I always thought there should be a setting when logged in that could be modified for your favorites. Like a default screen for logged in users, and then a default view for the public (such as the NCAAs or regionals for the drive by results seekers)
  5. Track isn’t hard to grasp if you start using it frequently but it’s not exactly easy to understand walking in off the street. It’s got everything I need (for the most part) on its public view on tournaments. I’ve always disliked FloArena when trying to cover a tournament and look deeper at the data
  6. All you need to do is go to the Colorado HS state tournament to understand why. Sure, they can get 10 mats on the floor, but the mats are right up against the dasher boards and the scoring tables are in corners or in penalty boxes. The 200x85 NHL-sized ice sheet makes the new arenas pretty tough too. St. Louis had the Olympic ice (200x100) for a short time, so their floor space is wider, which is why head tables and scoring tables at the Enterprise Center were optimal. New arenas that have hockey aren't going wider than NHL boards with their floors as much as they used to.
  7. Fargo B-Dubs, Bison Turf and Herd & Horns count: Currently 0. What's the over-under here folks? I'm there the whole time (Save the first session as I'm driving in Saturday AM)
  8. Best weather forecast for tournament week I can recall. My first year was well over 100 degrees and we stayed in the non-AC dorms. I wasn’t cutting weight but I definitely lost weight by simply existing that year.
  9. We acting like this is the first time someone's done blow in the White House?
  10. This. I’m all about this.
  11. I threw a large sirloin on for dinner, quick marinade in Worcestershire (this for some reason has to be capitalized?) and soy sauces with a hit of garlic. Smoked for about an hour at 225, then cranked the Traeger up to 450 for the final 15 minutes and boom. Only reason I went that long is my wife doesn't like medium rare, so I had to at least give it a bit more than I normally like.
  12. Twas my tagline on TheMat when people seemed to believe I still worked at USAW almost a decade after I left when people went off the reservation on various forum posts. I stopped working at the NWCA full-time and operating InterMat in 2008, so it plays with the fact I don't work here either. It's got a double negative, but it's not factually incorrect.
  13. If you’re Team Pinfall, you’re on Team Pyles. That’s the reality of the situation.
  14. Update on the funding needed to make this a reality https://wrestlingtexas.com/texas-collegiate-wrestling-foundation-kicks-off-division-i-campaign/
  15. Kind of a morbid request - he wasn’t exactly a nice guy - esp. to the female posters on TWT back in the day, but here’s the link https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/yevgeniy-bashmachenko-obituary?pid=172173028
  16. It was an oft-quoted myth that the Big Ten required wrestling for membership. That speculation wasn’t rooted in anything factual, unfortunately. The only conference that requires wrestling for full all-sports membership is the Division III American Rivers Conference (formerly known as the Iowa Conference)
  17. It’s across all sports …
  18. They were active for a spell as an NJCAA program with only one All-American, a JC heavyweight in 1963. Now they’re a D3 school.
  19. Detest Beam. I don’t have a super diverse palate with the bourbons, but I can pick that one out of a lineup just by its smell.
  20. Jeff and Pat might be friends, but they're far from the same. Jeff is actually a friend of mine. Goes back to his days at ODU before he transferred to East Stroudsburg.
  21. I answered your question to the best of my knowledge. You asked there still isn’t D1 wrestling in Texas. I gave you the reason why this hasn’t yet been announced. I can’t give you a place to go because I haven’t been told a place to go to contribute.
  22. There has not yet been an announcement on this. I hear there is still a fundraising figure that needs to be met for this to become a reality.
