  1. oh i thought this would be about prostate trouble
  2. i agree with this... but it was hardly uncommon, in my mind. back then there were myriad political battles fought. the book 'wrestlers at the trials'? has some interesting insights into how the team was picked over the history of the olympic trials. https://www.amazon.com/Wrestlers-At-Trials-wrestling-1960-1988/dp/0979905109
  3. you are referring to the hardy match correct? where the PSU wrestler said ouch, the ref stopped it... and did not require injury time or choice?
  4. desanto was actually hurt and gave up the position to choice... so... not really the same.
  5. athletes in general. especially high level athletes like college wrestlers
  6. bigger, faster, stronger was correct. take a look at the guys that way 225 today compared to 225 in yesteryear then look at 300 pounders no debate. today they are faster and stronger
  7. but why does the NCAA love her
  8. did he peak too ealry i kid i kid
  9. who is christina
  10. yeah.. how could i forget
  11. spencer lee am i wrong in assuming his only losses were last high school match and last college match? or did he lose to desanto in semis
  12. imho they should have sat probb as well... just a tough stretch here... and he isn't at the right spot mentally i think.
  13. its the middle of the season.
  14. i was always told freestyle taught you to finish faster and cleaner... so i mean... maybe the funk should have made us finish faster and cleaner this whole: there oughta be a law mentality is what has gotten us to where we are in society
  15. i mean they already put in neutral back points... what more do we need? just call the stalemate faster
  16. ok so i dive down am legitimately trying to score, but can't get my own ankles free, the guy on top is just grabbing them and not letting me move so now HE is stalling?
  17. i will take that. straw man however is it wrong to say that you are just giving someone points for doing something you dont personally like?
  18. now compare it to freestyle. the pushout. the guy with the leg up can't finish. b/c the other guy has to much defense. so instead of calling this a stalemate or no points. we let the guy walk him out of bounds for a point. I say it's stalling. he has my ankle, or perhaps whole leg and isn't working to finish. he just pushes me out now b/c we gave him a free point. or maybe i just dive down to the mat so im grounded... now im stalling to avoid the pushout. so what you guys are saying is any time someone grasps in desperation we should just give a point to the other guy. wrestling is about control. if i have controlled part of you such that you can't score.. so be it. that's a stalemate.
