  1. I said it was funny that people get worked up that I call it by the sponsor's name, not that it was my intent to get them worked up. They do a fine job of that all on their own when they see fit to disagree. My take is that Sanderson understands or at least believes that there is a group of folks who would really like to change the way this sport settles national championships. My take is that he believes these types of events just promote those ideas and he doesn't want to participate in that promotion. The N in NCAA stands for National. Anyone else can put that word in their event, but it isn't really the same thing, hence my reference to the commercial sponsor of the event.
  2. I think you actually have it right in the second paragraph. I saw a video clip somewhere of Cael saying something to the effect of this being a re hash of long held arguments that he doesn't think make sense. Not those exact words of course, but that sort of meaning. I don't think they will have any issue filling comp dates.
  3. Yes. "Sponsored by Paycom" "Paycom Duals" Pretty much the same thing. Btw, I dont hate the event. Its a re hash of the old event. No big deal. It is funny that people get worked up because I call it by the sponsor's name.
  4. My point is that everyone calls this the "national" duals. That words means something that does not apply here.
  5. A man bun in a bonnet with a dangling price tag?
  6. Paycom Invitational.
  7. The camera angle, the overly animated Jesus talk, and the 'look at me' cockiness remain strong.
  8. I don't normally disagree much with your posts, but I have to here. Hendrickson beat Steveson straight up and exposed any small weaknesses in his game in the process, whether physical or mental, plus he has no other losses. He earned a spot ahead of Gable for those reasons.
  9. This msg board is never short on interesting threads.
  10. The Romans won for 300 years, way more than Iowa or Ok. State
  11. Whatever weight Ono goes, he wins.
  12. <<<Wrestling Twitter After @NCAAWrestling Is WILD……. PED Accusations People Taking Dives (Betting Accusations) Politics HIPPA Violations Laundering Money Character Attacks>>> All the while they play commercials telling people who lost bets to not attack athletes. Maybe they should just tell fans to chill out. Its a sport. A game. Life will go on.
  13. It would also produce a new source of revenue for International wrestlers
  14. He won't win that weight either.
  15. Fist fight? No one attempted a rear naked choke?
  16. When they lose do people call them chokers? Seems an obvious short leap.
  17. 100% certain that Taylor will bring Okie State back up. How far is anyone's guess, especially with how special Penn State has been under the legend Cael Sanderson. However, just nitpick, almost half their points came from two portal guys. I give him a little cred also for Plott getting 15 points (he scored more last year though) and Spratley getting 17.5 points for 2nd place. Their other 6 weights added up to 21.5 points. They won't match PSU anytime soon with that.
  18. 3, 2, 1 ... IMPLOSION!
  19. Linda scripted it at the DOE.
