How in the world could Ben shoot? Go down on his chest with someone on top of him while he was gassed. Unbelievable.

Ben looks really nervous

Crazy the high level of production. Even of the commercials that are just for RAF.

Askren should wrestle in shorts only. Just for effect.

I agree. I never say anything to anyone at the gym. I usually get in and get out as quickly as possible. Very occasional I'll offer some safety advice to young people who seem open to taking advice. In this case our gym has 10 squat racks and 9 were being used. So i used the open rack. I would just do something else if there were no racks open as it seems most people on here would. It was a busy day. Just a interesting topic of discussion with like minded people. Also interesting discussion about how we all handle our injuries as we get older. There's no one right answer about that.

I had two disc spaces fused. It was one of the best decisions I've made. It was when they first figured out how to do fusion. Of course I was 28 at the time, but I would guess the surgery is better now. Lifting really helps my back.

But what if there weren't any squat racks left?

I had "Superpath" total hip replacement. The first one was about 4 years ago and I had the second one 2 years ago. It's outpatient surgery. I went in at 10AM and was home at 2PM. I can cross my legs, do squats within reason. The only thing I need to watch is everything needs to be low impact so no running or jumping. If you're having a hip replacement you definitely need to get the superpath surgery. A good friend of mine who was a college heavyweight wrestler suggested it to me. He's about 50lbs heavier than I am and he lifts and plays golf multiple times a week with no problems with his hips.

Wednesday was leg day for me. I'm a 60 year old former high school wrestler and a D1 college football player, so I've been working out in all different types of gyms for over 45 years. I've had two hip replacements and a fused back so I squat, but I'm not setting any records. I lift to stay mobile and to increase my lifespan. This day every squat rack in the gym was being used except one, so I started using that one. When I looked to my right, I noticed the guy next to me was doing curls with the Olympic bar...65 lbs. He would do a set then sit in the rack on a moveable bench...there were no other benches available either. It really annoyed me, but I quickly finished my sets and broke down the bar. Should I have said something to him? I thought about showing him curling in the squat rack memes on my phone.

Did Sinclair really just get teched? They had to have the score backwards on wrestlestat.

Frippertronics is a tape looping technique used by the English guitarist Robert Fripp. It marked the first real-time tape looping device, evolving from a system developed in the electronic music studios of the early 1960s by composers Terry Riley and Pauline Oliveros and made popular through its use in ambient music by composer Brian Eno, as on his album Discreet Music (1975). The effect is now routinely found in many commercial loop station guitar digital effects boxes such as the Boss RC-3 The term "Frippertronics" (or "frippertronics") was coined around May 1977 by poet Joanna Walton, Fripp's girlfriend at the time, for a performance they planned to do together at The Kitchen performing arts space. Frippertronics is an analogue delay system consisting of two side-by-side reel-to-reel tape recorders. The machines are configured so that the tape travels from the supply reel of the first machine to the take-up reel of the second, allowing sound recorded by the first machine to be played back on the second machine. The audio of the second machine is then routed back to the first, causing the delayed signal to repeat, while new audio is mixed in with it. The length of the delay (usually three to five seconds) is controlled by the distance between the two machines, and the number of repeats is controlled by the volume on the second machine. Fripp used this technique to dynamically create recordings containing layer upon layer of electric guitar sounds in real time. An added advantage was that, by nature of the technique, the complete performances were recorded in their entirety on the original looped tape. (Pasted from Wikipedia)

The mellotron is my favorite instrument. Kind of kidding, but the mellotron worked by running a length of magnetic tape across a play head when a key was pushed down. I believe the musician could change the feed of the tape which would change the frequency of the tone. The mechanical feed of the tape would create a warble sound. Stuff like this is lost in today's digital world. Same thing with Frippertronics.

The freshman in 1947 were probably just back from WWII and 27 years old. Probably some really tough hombres.

When I first looked at the title of the thread, I thought it was another one about DAKE vs. Taylor.

There is a round of consultation at 330 CST. Follow Mizzou 's X account. They are doing a good job of keeping up with Mizzou results.

This is the last year for the Cougar Clash. https://fox2now.com/news/illinois/siue-rebrands-to-an-alternate-identity/

On a family trip a couple of weeks ago to Yellowstone, we passed though Montana and I played this song for the family. My mother in law in the seat behind me had the same reaction as Ike Turner.

From Wikipedia: At 1:55, right after the chorus, Zappa plays a long guitar solo. A middle section with vocals by Tina Turner & The Ikettes follows. Zappa follows singing the last verses and finally there's the coda, where the line from the chorus ("Moving to Montana soon...," sung by Tina Turner and the Ikettes) is repeated constantly and answered by a high-pitched "Yippy-Aye-O-Ty-Ay" (sung by Kin Vassy). This goes on until it fades out towards the six-and-a-half minute mark. Of the Ikettes' harmonies, Zappa later said: ”It was so difficult, that one part in the middle of the song "Montana", that the three girls rehearsed it for a couple of days. Just that one section. You know the part that goes "I'm pluckin' the ol' dennil floss..."? Right in the middle there. And one of the harmony singers got it first. She came out and sang her part and the other girls had to follow her track. Tina was so pleased that she was able to sing this that she went into the next studio where Ike [Turner] was working and dragged him into the studio to hear the result of her labor. He listened to the tape and he goes, ‘What is this shit?’ and walked out"

Sorry. A little late. In the court of the crimson pig.

I get it D3. I'm a Prog Rocker. Yes is one of my favorites.

Looks like they turned over the coaching staff. Anyone know any details? Are they de-emphasizing wrestling?

The first concert I saw was Jethro Tull and Uriah Heep at the Checkerdome in St. Louis. Maybe 1979 or 1980.

The first album I ever bought was the 8-track version of "Songs from the Wood" in about 1978. It's still my favorite album and Jethro Tull is still my favorite group. I have every Tull album on vinyl now up to Broadsword and the Beast, though I rarely listen to vinyl anymore.

Right. Aeoden definitely looked too small for 197 this year. Rocky always looked too big for 197.

Maybe Rocky transferred because he couldn't make the lineup.
