Not sure if this is true but I heard someone say it looked like they would send him if Nebraska didn’t send Smith (Nebraska also weighed in 2 guys at 125)

Was the wrestler himself actually involved or just his dad?

OK if all he was looking for was literally any response, then I’m OK with it. But I think where people got rightfully upset was thinking that what specifically they responded with could impact whether they still had a job by being judged by people unfamiliar with their jobs, or worse, AI.

Agree. Especially since it was towards the end of the dual so there were probably a bunch of people tuning in to get ready for Iowa/OSU. Not to mention he may have still gotten the 1 seed at B10’s even if he lost.

He was warming up

Ok he didn’t shoot “from” the knee, but the second period TD shot came about 1.5 seconds after coming up from the knee. Plott definitely seemed to be leaning prior to the SV TD, but I did not think he was leaning during the second period TD. Angelo was just too quick for him. Interestingly I believe both his TD’s were from outside singles to Plott’s trail leg, which many coaches would probably advise against. Overall I don’t really see much difference between a guy in a stance and a guy on a knee. There are certainly ways one could try to attack someone on a knee; or at least maybe try to time your shot for right as he’s coming up. Ferrari also tended to leave the leg that was up kinda far in front, so I think an outside single to that leg could be an option. But stalling should be based on the action or lack thereof and Ferrari was far more active overall.

Lol I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic, but isn’t a banana split just what some people call a spladle?

lol c’mon even people that “don’t do anything” while working from home usually at least check their email. Even moreso considering this one is national news.

I agree cut the fluff. But we should care about how how much is actually being cut and if it is actually making a dent in reducing the debt, or on track to hit what IIRC was Musk’s stated goal of $2 trillion

I have no idea. I assume you’re implying they don’t normally get killed. But if you look at it that way then DOGE could claim cancelling a $10 million annual contract was worth $1 billion over the next 100 years or something stupid

Correct, when I said “keep it close” I meant have a chance to win, heck I picked him to beat Hamiti . But I see some people saying because he wrestled yesterday they think he has the spot which I’d disagree with, especially since he didn’t look great IMO

What did Brands show yesterday to earn the spot? I think they used him because they thought he could keep it closer with Hamiti. I think it’s going to be Kennedy at 174

Agree

Correct, was anyone saying otherwise? In fact the anonymous x user specifically calls out their claim about the list only being 20%. His point is that they never changed the overall savings from $55b despite removing $10b worth of errors. I suppose they could claim the $55b was an underestimate to begin with, or they found another $10b since then.

Correct

Yea there was, at least after the first period. Regardless, IMO in general it is the lack of action that is stalling, not the fact of being on a knee

Nothing in the rules about “taking a defensive position.” Key words IMO are about “maintaining action,” and if he is shooting from there he is maintaining action, and nothing is stopping his opponent from trying to initiate an offense (snap down, etc).

Someone that backs up (such as Teemer) is preventing the other guy from initiating an offense. Someone that drops to a knee is not preventing the other guy from initiating an offense IMO.

Trolling 2/10

I feel like the question needs to be clarified. Is it: 1. Should wrestling from your knees be considered stalling, based on the current rule set? or 2. Should a rule be added to make wrestling from your knees stalling? If it’s #1, I’d say no, since the Ferrari bros often shoot from their knees. For that reason, I’d also say no to #2

About the 20%? Not sure what you’re getting at.

Yes. But the appropriate comparison in your example is they budgeted $2.5M over 5 years and stopped using it after 4.

DOGE updated the specific examples he called out after being called out on them. Your screenshot still shows “$55b saved,” despite the significant reductions from the errors that were called out…

And unlike AJ he wrestled in the Little Rock and Oregon State duals

If Starocci is “the highest paid wrestler…by a lot” wouldn’t Iowa/PSU probably be higher?
