  2. biden said today.. he wants to shut down the border and work on a path to legal status

    why do we need both?

    if he shuts down the border, the only way is legally.

    if he uses the legal path... the border can't be shut down.

     

    the only people who appear to be above the law are illegal immigrants

  3. the immigration bill did more for things that don't deal with immigration, than immigration.

    and as far as 'tough'? it allowed more immigrants than is currently coming in. so yeah

    trash.

    I don't really buy the defeatist, niche sport argument. MMA, beach volleyball, and sport climbing were niche sports until they weren't. 

    A big challenge imo is that wrestling doesn't really have any big charismatic personalities that have broken through outside of the sport. JB and Chamizo are popular, but they're not household names like you see (since women's sports were mentioned) in women's swimming, gymnastics, tennis, basketball, and soccer.

    Even non-sports fans are able to connect with names like Katie Ledecky, Simone Biles, Naomi Osaka, Diana Taurasi, and Alex Morgan. That gives them a reason to tune-in and watch. Wrestlers otoh tend to be more subdued and humble, stick to generic talking points, and don't amplify rivalries as they should. So there's little reason for the media to pick up  on wrestling.

    I mean, there are a lot of reasons why wrestling doesn't get more mainstream attention. The lack of personalities to love or hate just doesn't do the sport any favors. 

    i dont disagree. but i think this is DUE to the fact the TV follows and promotes those athletes.

    when was the last time a wrestler was promoted? maybe JB

    maybe Rulon, AFTER he beat the russian.
