Chicago is warm... about 5 weeks each summer. And yeah Heartbreak is brutal and has that name for a reason! I do lots of up and downs on parking garages because that's about as close as it gets around here for "hills." How good or bad was it mentally for you when you saw the Citgo sign and the distance to go sunk in?

He'd win nearly as many matches at a single NCAA as the current starter will rack up in 4 combined tourneys (currently at 2 wins in 2 appearances)

Can you give us an executive summary? I refuse to give clicks to those turds in the punch bowl.

Can confirm that Boston sucks. It's brutally technical and every first-timer blows up from the downhill start unless they are treating it as a long-run victory lap. I'm just aiming to finish under 2:50. FWIW every race I have run with Kipchoge, he has set a world record... maybe he goes for the course record in Hopkinton?!

I put my Yiannis on the table last race when things went haywire and required digging deep into the well and I’ll be sure to send a couple pics from Boston on April 17 as a direct result of wrestling motivation. FloSports won’t be there because it will be covered by a legit media company covering a niche sport so if you miss the broadcast you will be stuck with me being “that guy” (again)

@SetonHallPirate three enhancement requests: As a viewer I would like to see which wrestler has the highest SOS when viewing P4P tab. As a viewer I would like to see a sort-filter option added to all tabs for School, Rating, SOS (pending), and Weight. As a viewer I would like to see Name and School column headers added; this will increase capability of drill-downs if #2 request is implemented.

I'm a very self-loathing individual if that's what you are asking

@Husker_Du about to go on an all-timer Mardi Gras for 2 months straight

Don't yuck on someone's yum. Just silently judge them for liking the trashy soap opera like a good midwesterner.

Hope he's packing some heat because he doesn't have a chin or balls

But what about Oly weight finalists? If the whole point is to get the best team then how can that be accomplished? Let's use Cox as an example as assume for this hypothetical's sake that he wants a world medal and is open to going 92 if he doesn't win the spot at 97: Cox goes 97 and makes the finals. Does he also compete at the WTT tourney down at 92? Does he compete at both Final X? I'm asking these questions because this idea has good traction but there would be scenarios to be addressed before FloRadio wholesale lifts this conversation and comes up with invalid talking points.

Just the cost of the venue. Everything else looks good that you suggested minus the US Open which @Eagle26 wisely pointed out. So maybe it's 3rd weekend of March: NCAAs 2nd weekend of April: US Open 4th weekend of April: Last Chance 2nd weekend of May: Olympic weights 4th weekend of May: Non-olympic weights including invitation to all Oly weight qualifiers But how are you going to do Final X? Or will Olympic weights go back to the two-day system that gives a supreme advantage to the incumbent a la JB over Dake. Or is it such that any Oly weight finals participant cannot compete in a non-OIy bracket and thus rendering this whole exercise futile.

for the first time in the history of two forums, someone has accurately used the word "states"

@nhs67 is this what you are suggesting? 3rd weekend of March: NCAAs 2nd weekend of April: Last Chance 4th weekend of April: Olympic weights 2nd weekend of May: Non-olympic weights including invitation to all Oly weight qualifiers With the deprioritization of National Team Member status due to the rise in support at the RTC level this seems like a great idea and worked well after OTTs the past two cycles. The very large snag is reserving two venues rather than one.

Zahid looks good and is a bonafide medal threat. Crazy to think he is a distant third, err, second on the ladder domestically. Levels…

Musukaev saw the Dan Gable statue in IC and applied cold spray before the plane landed. HELL YEAH!!!! to Ghasempour!!! If that doesn’t embody the spirit of wrestling then what does? And Snyder is a selfless warrior that would relish the opportunity no matter the outcome. Yaaasssssssss

I think it is because he can’t make 92 and be effective. He got big brothered at OTT even though he wrestled two nearly perfect matches, but thems the breaks. If he has committed to going down and Zahid is crazy enough to go up I am here for it. I don’t think it will happen but if it does then I think Zahid beats Jackson and Moore lays the smack down.

You should take a step back and ask yourself if the current macroeconomy is directly due to three items: 1) The fed accomplished what was probably the most optimal outcome in an unprecedented scenario to continue propping the economy, but the can was kicked down the road and now we have to pay it back but it could have been much worse. This is neither a D or R result but rather an economical result. 2) A significant amount of inflation is due to energy costs directly attributed to the dependency and decoupling of Russian energy post-Ukraine invasion and the ripple affect experienced at a global scale. 3) Americans workers finally saw significant wage increases despite no federal minimum wage increase. In turn, prices across all sectors immediately shot up. I am not entering into an argument of the right or wrongness of that outcome but am merely bringing it to the forefront as a major point in this particular conversation Maybe those bullet points resonate or maybe they don't. But I think the current state of the economy is not Sleepy Joe's fault - it would have happened no matter who won.

He may not even be a national team member because he's not getting past Cox anytime soon and Cox is certainly far away from Snyder. ETA: And that sucks because I'm a huge Moore fan. Consistently underrated and behind all-timers in Nickal, Cox, and Snyder. That's a rough career break.

I couldn't decide whether it was the goofy wet chicken nugget or Mymar

I think Moore would be the favorite and with a good draw he could be in a medal match, or with the wrong draw he could bbq. But I thought he was going 97 permanently?

That seems like a pretty valid reason. Selfishly was hoping for an IRI/GEO matchup but that’s how it goes sometimes.

I could be wrong but I thought Geno is working out at NLWC currently? If that is accurate then do you have any insight as to why would not participate in the World Cup if his team is here?

Is Waste Management in the transfer portal?
