Want to see my Boston marathon medals? Sorry for being a tweener not as good as Kyle Snyder

I need him to keep losing so I can get a bargain pick in the Wrestlestat tournament pick em

Fun fact: One of Zane Richards' training partner has the same # of NCAA titles as RBY. And he was so good they had to change the rules because of him. Nobody ever changed any rules for Mr. Bravo Young just sayin

And lower weights just beat up on other midgets who aren't athletic enough to overcome their deficits to be successful in other sports so they get more weight classes so they can increase their participation trophies. See what I did there?

Olympic qualifiers are allowed to compete this week at Pan Am Champs just not the qualifier. That's why we have seen Helen, Adeline, Dake, Snyder, and Parris this week.

Same reason Zach Esposito was listed at 61 a few years ago - it's a glitch where the training partner is also listed.

Throw some more shade at the GOAT while you're at it

And where did they finish? I'm guessing you were once a 103 back in 2004, is that where you finished?

Don't forgot those tig ol' bitties on Mason "double D" Parris. They're right above his six pack.

Like that FMF Jacob Kasper

Exactly! Fat bums like Kerkvliet and Hendrickson and Davison and Elam and Feldman and Pitzer and Keuter and Catka that never shoot! foh

David Carr, junior world champion and NCAA champion, disagrees with your mentality. Here is what he said last year before their first match

It gave me no joy to have to say those things about top notch dudes, especially all-time underappreciated Kollin Moore.

The good news is that The Mizzou Tigerducks are gearing up for greatness... and protecting their rankings

I heard the same thing about Glory not weighing in against Lee

Who are those people beating? I appreciate the homerism but you are talking about very good wrestlers like these were random upset and this deserves a deeper dive. Steiber got hurt and additionally had unfair expectations based on his name. He was a lot more Eli than Peyton ya know? Moore choked exactly one tourney "down" to 4th place (frosh made semis/took 3rd with Cox winning the bracket, Nickal, and covid) Tomasello overachieved his frosh year if anything. And he can always hang his hat on beating Spencer Lee at B1Gs. Sasso wasn't ever beating AOC or Yianni McKenna lost to Meredith who lost to the champ then DNP, transferred to tOSU and lost to Meredith in the semis again then lost to Yianni

Either 1) RBY is following the NLWC mantra of "we don't care about seeds we will just show up to beat everyone" OR 2) All-time duck of Spencer Lee. I'm taking door #2 and not even Baschamania can change my mind.

Could the 125 31, 32, and 33 seeds sit on each others shoulders and be the 1 seed at 285?

Say what you will about him, but at least Chris Bono never forced his crappy album onto my phone and wouldn't let me delete it.

It will be good right up until it isn't. First the NCAA revenue sports will transform into amateur sports. Then the MBA-ification will occur. Then interest will wane rapidly as results are dictated by a bottom line rather than championships. Oh and don't forget that higher education attendance both in person and general enrollment is about to radically transform over the next decade which will have a much larger impact on NCAA sports/what it becomes than I think anyone is acknowledging. Here is some additional food for thought: You don't need a degree to code, you just need a place to begin building your network. You don't need a degree for manual labor, you need to attend a trade school. You don't need to be weighed down with a lifetime of high interest student loans at the beginning of your adult *life that have the ability to cripple you for a lifetime, you just need to gain relevant skills in the upcoming automated world. I work in high level technology for a company that dictates, literally, how the world runs and some of my best and brightest are folks with only a high school or associate's degree. Teachers and medical education are two of the few fields that will be fully excluded but even they are already being heavily transformed. I don't bring these topics up as debate fodder that could derail the conversation, I'm only sharing them as additional bullet points to support what @Idaho is saying.

For the uninitiated of when Dake decided the internet was wrong and he was sick and tired of being 0-100 in fantasy matchups versus Taylor because of what happened in high school. Undefeated for going on a dozen years against Taylor since 4/21/2012. First Period: Second Period:

I'd say it's a 33.3% bet since that is his current winning percentage against Carr

I really like this because it incentivizes competing in other tournies with the goal of increasing your seed therefore increasing your likelihood of reaching the finals. It's not perfect and nothing ever will be, but I like the intent behind the decision. ETA: a lot of people were already forfeiting once they qualified, but this clearly bifurcated the competitions into two mini tournies. No ambiguity, just incentive.

Down with the east coast coastal elitists showing off their travel plans and views from their suites! Like this guy! Heard there will be a leak called the #WillieFiles that will put the Panama Papers to shame.
