Yeah let’s not go throwing stones into glass houses. Americans cheat, they just have much better technology and advanced doping systems to not caught, or at least avoid getting caught for a longer period of time. The only difference is that because America is privatized, it cannot technically be “state-led” but I can guaran-damn-tee it’s coming down straight from the top. I know this for a very good fact. At least (or maybe the problem is??) our wrestlers haven’t popped for the really good stuff and are too busy wasting their time with adderal and weight cutters.

This is a very serious shitpost and can only be taken literally

Gilman is in a real pickle… Spencer Lee has GOATed him out of the 57 spot. He also just got teched off the mat by a no-name at 61. Maybe he moves up to 65?

That's because armbar tilts are worth 4 points but freestyle exposures are only worth 2. It's simple math that adds up to Gilman packing on muscle to compete at his new weight class.

You're telling me that a 4x and returning world medalist is not scared of a college wrestler with exactly one senior tournament's worth of experience? I don't buy it. He reads these message boards and knows Spencer Lee is inevitable.

Going up a weight in the off-season can only mean one thing: Gilman, a former Duckeye, is ducking Spencer Lee.

He doesn't have the gas tank to fix his mullet after the first period

Finally catching up. MFS - McKenna needs to either get a haircut or quit shaking his head every 10 seconds. It’s the championship match of a senior rankings tourney and every detail counted.

I recommend using SpotHero. You can type "Tulsa BOK Center" which will generate parking results for Big 12s and NCAAs (and the Harlem Globetrotters and Journey w/ Toto, etc.). You can then click results to choose parking by the hour/session/day/etc. Guarantees you a spot + likely less than/equal to standard rates. Some are street, some are garage, some are private. Can't confirm what types because I have never stayed in Tulsa and I plan to keep that streak alive.

Switzerland came in as the 33 seed with a record of 0-0 but everyone knew they were the absolute best when choosing neutral

Focus has been waiting

Gable Stevenson revels in embarrassing Mason Parris at every stop, and therefore will be announcing he is coming out of retirement and burning his covid-shirt. Twitter melts down, Tulsa rejoices, Vince McMahon pushes for him to be the first to simultaneously hold the Olympic-NCAA-WWE heavyweight belts.

Real Chicagoans eat tavern style (thin crust) pizza. Only tourists and business clients go for deep dish. Vito & Nicks and Barnaby's come to mind. But if you do make the decision to ruin your waistline, Lou Malnati's is the best deep dish.

McKee dominates the championship bracket in the greatest plot twist since The Sixth Sense

I remember why I didn't participate last year - this is always a crunch time of year for me and the time cost especially after work is just too much. If I can send a queue of picks and hop into the google sheet from my mobile as time allows then count me in, otherwise I'm jealous and will eventually join when life slows down.

I made the mistake of saying “what’s wrong?” last night and now I’m in overseeing weight management of the lightest weight. Joke’s on her because there is no better bro-love relationship than the lightest dude and the heavyweight! (if you unwrap the above then that means I’m in charge of meal time of our toddler and me & little dude both have stupid fun which just gets me into infinitely more trouble)

I'm not around many wrestling friends anymore so whenever I say this phrase they just stare at me like a fool (so does my wife). Oh well what can you do. Wrestlers have them, other sports play with them...

About as crappy as my karma 'round these parts

Am I too late for the Last Chance qualifier?

They will also look at ESPN+ membership spikes for people who enroll for a free trial, renew a lapsed membership, upgrade the Disney/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle around tourney time too. The Mouse House is very, very, very digitally forward and data-driven.

Luckily ESPN can do analytics of things like Unique IDs watching, Unique devices watching, etc. to get a quick and easy understanding. Cable viewership is the outlier with outdated methodologies due to inherent analog ideologies forced into digital devices. I'm sure that ESPN has taken notice that wrestling is the #3 most viewed sport on Big Ten Network behind football and men's basketball. I don't know ACC or Pac12 network stats. Whether those info and sport v sport rankings means much to ESPN or not is the other question...

125 Lee goes out with the season grand slam of Hodge, Most Dominant, Gorarrian, and OW 133 RBY. My heart says Fix breaks through, but my heart really wants to see him stay in college for 8 years just to be runner-up every year. 141 Matthews. It will probably be Woods or Barlett but where is the fun in that pick when you can go for the dude who just happened to run into both of last year's cinderella stories (Willits and Clarke) 149 Yianni. And I'm calling it now: he hits a lat drop at some point in the tournament. 157 Andonian. Fun! (sorry AOC/Illinois ) 165 Depends on seeds for the Saturday night matchup. Carr over Griffith over O'Toole over Carr 174 Starocci. This will be the bracket that blows up. 184 Brooks. Terminator. Next. 197 Dean over Beard in the finals. The entire arena is rooting for Beard and is deflated. Life sucks. Sunday's hangover will be twice as brutal knowing the bad guys won. 285 "Dark horse" Cassioppi. The bracket gods are going to shine over the weekend by giving us the two least top-tier heavyweights, Cassioppi and Schultz, go to SV2. No amount of cold spray can save the lungs in this match. Or if you want to be boring, Parris is back and will wreck the field without his big brother around to beat him up anymore.

Humble mindset, superior technique, willingness to fully dedicate yourself. About as secret as Big Mac sauce lol.

Why should someone cancel a credit card in order to cancel a subscription? How is that personal accountability?

That’s not really how business operations works in the legal or customer experiences realms though. I’m going to get a bit personal when I say that I get your tough guy schtick and applaud the consistency no matter how many ellipses must be sacrificed, but maybe just once don’t mash the send button before thinking “does this help our niche sport’s bigger picture?”
