D3 for LU

Over on FLO... nothing on the Watch Party. (Sleeping in today?) D3

tanxs for the info. D3

... consolation prize for being the 1st seed? D3

Meanwhile... what about Adam Coon? D3

D3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ... what he said. D3

... does that mean there's a chance that they'll move Iuna Fafe of Guinea-Bissau into Micic's spot? D3

I'm at work today... (but I'll be home on Thursday & Friday to start the men's FS tournament.) BUT I'll be checking in from time to time. Those at home watchin on Peacock will be sitting in the catbird seat. (ALSO... check the UWW site for brackets and mat assignments and other stuff of importance to you all.) D3

Since both her and Coon have the 1st seeded wrestlers right off the bat... as soon as the wrestling comes on the air today @ 9am EDT, they'll be on the mats., first. Mat A will wrestle the 60Kg GR bouts... Mat B will wrestle the 68Kg women's FS... Mat C will wrestle the 130Kg GR bouts D3

Okay... I'll play the part of the Old Maid and start this thread. Day 1 will start the GR tournament @ 60 & 130Kg. Adam Coon @ 130kg will be the first one up (literally, folks as he's going up against the Iranian who nabbed the first seed (do anyone thing he's lucky today?) No US rep @ 60Kg... but we DO have Amit Elor @ 68Kg going up against the #1 seed from Turkiye (I'm so used to sayin' Turkey here... muscle memory!) I would think the Turkish woman would be wondering here, about who she ticked off to get Elor as a 1st round opponent? LET the WRESTLING BEGIN! D3

Anybody want to start the Olympic wrestling thread? The action begins @ 9am EDT w/ the weights mentioned above. (Let's Get This party Started... ) D3

I put all the names in a hat and had my brother pull one out... IT WAS IUNA FAFE of Guinea-Bissau. (I asked for a "do-over" but my bro said no.) D3

^^^^^^^^^^ Just to set the scene... D3

We're just waiting for the wrestling... Just waiting... D3

Hey, let's give it the ole Austin Powers Test... BUT, at times, it doesn't always work that way... (woops!) D3

^^^^ ... strong, indeed. (Tanxs, to WKN's vast computational and info gathering skills. He's the ayatollah of info-nollah. ) D3

alias as that alter ego to that man of steel... D3

D3

Good shot there, WKN. D3

Frightfully bold. D3

I remember watching Jerry Durso... who wrestled for Ridge HS in New Jersey. 1985 NJSIAA State Champion @ 142. 134 lbs Jerry Durso A three time NCAA qualifier for the Irish, Durso took eighth place honors at the 1989 NCAA tournament as a senior. New Jersey wrestling should be proud w/ Jerry becoming an AA for Notre Dame! D3

Their pre-weigh in meal consists of French Fries w/ French Dressing, & French Toast using French Bread. (After eating all that, they would be Better Off Dead... ) D3

^^^^^^^^^^ ... indeed. D3
