Did Spencer walk out of the Olympics with head held high though? Wasn’t he so upset that he was considering retiring? Good thing he didn’t though, I thought he looked good despite the loss. I was afraid Ono would dominate him like he did to everyone at Worlds. But since this is the college forum, I think the match was evidence we don’t need a stepout point in folkstyle. There was some action in bounds, but almost all the points were from step outs which seemed a bit anticlimactic

I don’t think this should surprise anyone, although I might disagree with 5 champs as “most likely” even when considering PSU’s history. Not doubting your numbers I just think the specific circumstances of this year are lower chances than historically. Most notably Kerk at the 2 and Bartlett and Kasak as current 1’s.

North of 195 = North Jersey

Has it exacerbated things though? Seems like it’s pretty much the same as it’s always been, the only gap that’s been widening IMO is PSU vs everyone else and it’s not primarily because of money (don’t let them fool you though, they’re paying guys well). Yes, it’s easy for top guys from smaller schools to move to top ones, but It’s also easier for guys that can’t crack the lineup at the top schools to transfer to smaller ones. To the OP, no one is beating PSU next year. I guess I wouldn’t rule Iowa or OSU out in 2-3 years depending on the recruits/transfers they get. But I also wouldn’t rule out other teams from beating Iowa or OSU.

As long as the kids actually establish residence in the state I don’t see an issue with them competing at the state tournament. The Herrings were also move-ins but they’ve been living there for years at this point. But in NJ I believe most of the guys at Delbarton, Bergen Catholic etc are actually from NJ anyway. I think the reason Blair isn’t part of the state tournament is because it’s a boarding school, so a lot of the kids don’t really live there. There’s also only one class for the state tournament in NJ. Putting the private schools in the small school division in PA is silly IMO. I really doubt any kids were deliberately trying to get Knox DQ’d, but considering how much SJV kinda dominated (looks like they were also the only North Jersey team in a district full of South Jersey teams) I’m not surprised if they were happy about it.

Some additional bullets from the first link you left out: Voters are split on Elon Musk and Mike Johnson. 58% of voters say DOGE employees should not have access to sensitive information on Americans who benefit from government expenditure programs; including names, social security numbers, addresses, and incomes (Democrats: 75%; Republicans: 39%; Independents: 63%).

Good news. I guess the fired government workers really should learn to code.

Didn’t Bondi recently say the Epstein list was “on her desk”? I get that’s a euphemism but sounds to me like she’s seen it. If the list disappears I think you have to blame the current admin. But I don’t think it will. Hopefully it gets released sooner than later.

lol community notes for the win ”Neither of those policies were in this bill. ”

Can you purchase a “green card plus” gift card for someone else?

What’s your opinion on prioritizing bringing white South Africans to the US?

Wow this x post is incredibly misleading. -We’ve already been over that Reuters and “Thompson Reuters” are separate divisions. Not to mention there’s nothing indicating that the government contracts paid to Thompson Reuters had anything to do with Musk’s companies. This is the Politico nonsense all over again, trying to tie unrelated funding to a bias for something totally different. Major stretch IMO. Besides, was there anything false in the Reuters reporting into Musk’s companies? I would think we should celebrate shining a light on dangerous workplace conditions, regardless of who the CEO is, but maybe that’s just me. -Is there evidence that “all 11 agencies targeted Elon’s businesses”? I just see a picture with a bunch of lines, some of which just say “oversight.” Others say “violations/fines,” if the violations were legitimate I wouldn’t call that being “targeted.” I can’t seem to find the source of the image, possibly this but it’s paywalled - https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/20/us/politics/elon-musk-federal-agencies-contracts.html -Interesting to call out millions in government funding paid to Reuters, but not billions paid to Musk’s companies. As I’ve said before, hopefully DOGE can find some waste there too.

Too bad Brands refuses to wrestle UNI, or else maybe we could’ve seen him against Keckeisen

Blair is not in the state tournament

I don’t mind the private schools being in the state tournament, but they should probably have separate districts/regions.

Well that would certainly be worthy of a DQ if so

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
