  1. True, but he was a D2 wrestler!
  2. We can't do that. If we do that we'll end up making the list 20 guys long, then 50, then 200. Eventually I'll be on the list.
  3. Truth hurts! But at least Pennsylvania produced a some HOF NFL QBs.
  4. Haselrig was D2, actually.
  5. That skinny punk? Plus, he was D2, technically.
  6. How do you guys have them ranked? Here's my top 5: Gable Steveson Kyle Snyder Stephen Neal Jimmy Jackson Chris Taylor
  7. PSU has always been mid-tier in the B10 in football, and I don't see them rising above that. Pennsylvania may be ripe wrestling ground, but the football up there is pretty "bleh".
  8. Comedy? I thought that was a documentary filmed in real time.
  9. If I was one of the jurors it would be a well hung jury.
  10. Ah. Well, sometimes I guess it doesn't work out so well. The guy I was referring to was Karl Lynes. He finished 4th at OSU in 1984. I think he was the coach at Ponca City HS for a few years.
  11. Did you know that the commercially popular banana is known as the Cavendish banana and that it cannot produce sexually, but rather through clones? This combined with how the banana is cultivated means that it's highly susceptible to disease and other issues and potential extinction. Can you imagine a world without sweet, ripe bananas? It would be a hellscape unfit for even the lowest vermin.
  12. I'd like some capitalism with a slice of colonialism. Man, some of the scumbags we supported on behalf of US owned fruit companies.
  13. Hehehe...Arnold looks like a hobbit in that picture. Could Wilt bench 300#? Man, that's a tall order for a dude with arms that long. I think Shaq benched #375 in his prime, but Shaq was a lot thicker than Wilt. Maybe Wilt could bench 300, he was a great athlete. But 500? Hehe, no way. I found a pic of Wilt from his bball days.
  14. What NJCAA champ are you referring to? I know one from the 80's who finished 4th at NCAAs.
  15. More likely after he discovers Hideaway Pizza! Several years ago I was in Stoolwater messing around and I ran into Dieringer coming out of Hideaway. I yelled at him "Hey Ringer, I'm gonna rat you out to Smith for eating pizza!!". He just laughed and waved.
  16. Exactly. But I've learned it doesn't do any good to argue about that in this forum.
  17. I just assumed you guys thought that was my weight.
  18. I remember when Cael was being touted as a can't miss type guy.
  19. Sounds like a sure bet. U23 Asian Champ shows he's world class on his feet (FS), and 2 time Jr College champ means he knows folkstyle.
  20. Geez. The bowl system. I have never seen such a reward for mediocrity in my life. I may be giving away my age a bit with this comment, but I remember when there were only about a dozen bowl games. If your team made it to a bowl they had to have a pretty good record. You'd see the occasional bowl team with 4 losses, but it was very rare to see one with 5 losses. Most of the games were pretty competitive. Now we have 43 bowl games. FORTY THREE. That means that 86 teams out of 128 make it to a bowl. That's ridiculous. It seems like half the games are between teams with 6-5 records, or worse. The kids love it, of course, because they get gifts from the bowl sponsors (and sometimes they are super cool), but I absolutely hate mediocre football. Shit, that was a bit of a rant, wasn't it?
  21. I always thought that american folkstyle wrestling was catch? What's the difference? Oh, I had no idea there was 2 Gotch brothers, I only knew about Frank.
  22. Exactly. I can believe the bball claims, he's probably the best ever (sorry Jordan). The track and field claims, I believe some of them. But the 500 bench? No way.
  23. No way he benched over 300 pounds, let alone 500.
  24. All I can say is the wrestler in this video is a lot more merciful than I would have been. I'd have been feeding that guy a steady diet of my elbow in his face.
