  1. What the hell is Sonnen drinking in that can? Liquid something something. Lol.
  2. Nagao is actually injured, a level above "hurt".
  3. I just wanted to know if he was hurt. I think his stall may have started last March under Brands Bros.
  4. What is up with Glazier. His performances of late have fallen off a cliff.
  5. PSU needs to give the back ups some work Friday night because otherwise they might bonus every single Michigan State wrestler. Good thing there is some compelling football on ESPN that night.
  6. I might need to watch a Rodney Dangerfield movie tonite. Caddyshack or Back to School.
  7. Didnt Stoddard make the U23 team? And Cole majors him? Nice win for the true freshman. Wont be shocked when they turn him into another freak in that line up.
  8. McHenry earned a 1 point penalty. PSU now at 110.5.
  9. Army leads after day 1.
  10. Well, at least let me be clear what my conclusions are. 1. Both Brooks and Lee are obviously world class wrestlers. 2. Brooks tends to wrestle more freely in his biggest matches while Lee wrestles a little tight, perhaps negatively impacting his biggest matches. 3. NLWC is a far better club than HWC. Too many results to not know this is the way that it is, so not sure why it was implied in this thread that HWC was better.
  11. Both Brooks and Lee are top notch wrestlers. Brooks lost when his opponent scored a last second Td. Lee lost because in the last 2+ minutes he trailed on criteria and could not score a go ahead point.
  12. It is true your objective is simply to defeat your opponent in match play, but in my example player C beat a lesser player D on that day. Player C also took 6 more strokes than player B. And match play semi finals take place in consecutive pairings on the same course and pin locations.
  13. So you think 4 wrestlers were closer to winning the 2023 NCAA title at 125 than Spencer Lee? That 6 wrestlers were closer to winning at 165 when Alex Marinelli was finishing 8th? Ok.
  14. The concept isnt very difficult to understand, unless of course you just like arguing for the sake of it
  15. They were just talking about this concept on the golf channel. Colin Morikawa said of match play golf that in the semi finals player A shoots a 7 under 65 to beat player B who went 6 under 66. In the other semifinal player C shoots level par 72 to beat player D who shot 73. Player B shoots another 66 in the 3rd place match to beat player D. Player C loses the final to player A while shooting another 72. Who played better, the 3rd placer, player B, or the second placer, player C.
  16. Canada is part of America. North America.
  17. I agree.
  18. Yet, not a single pastry recipe.
  19. Oh, if I can remember to plan ahead then 24 hours is even better than 1 hour. It will make the outer surface ever so slightly less soft, but what that accomplishes is that it seals the meat even better AND the seasoning gets even deeper into the meat. When it cooks it gets a slightly thicker crust to it and the juice is sealed in even better.
  20. I like to add the salt (and pepper) an hour in advance to get it really into the meat. If left just on the surface you don't taste it as well.
  21. I made a beef tenderloin on cast iron griddle last nite with cut potatos and carmelized brussels sprouts. The tenderloin was with just a little oil, salt and pepper on it one hour in advance. 3 minutes a side, then 1 1/2 minute on the sides of the tenderloin. 5 minutes rest. Meat eater's delight.
  22. There is no control in that still pic, and count me among Penn State fans who did not see a TD for Haines. KOT won the match on superior scrambling ability. There is always a few fanatics who can't see straight, but that has no bearing on the entire fanbase.
  23. Spot on. I actually thought when Haines started to break KOT's grip he would be able to get around for the TD. Haines is a great wrestler and was in a superior position in that instant and KOT turned it all in his favor, so gotta give him the credit he deserves.
  24. KOT was masterful in avoiding that late single leg, then won the next scramble. Awesome wrestling.
  25. No way that was a singlet grab.
