Weasel words are the true victors.
There was no inferring even being attempted or insinuating until BB lost the bet. Then he weaseled out of it.
Under technicality, @jrossis correct. It was clear that BB weaseled out of having to pay by saying he inferred a different set of dates. There was no reason for anybody to believe otherwise aside for himself which was a deliberate attempted at being a turdbiscuit (you know what I am saying here, gents).
I must applaud his tenacity in claiming he won that exchange. He lost. Everybody lost and left the thread even more stupid than before they entered it as a direct result of his (BB) poor attempt at being a turdbiscuit.
For that and that alone he should have to donate $2k to CKWC for having wasted my time twice now. The first time in 2012 and the second time just now.
Also, Kasak as GS would allow him to come in right after SVN. I just am not sold on Sealey. Which also goes a long way towards my concerns with Ryder, being as he just beat Ryder last year down at 152, correct?
Crap I knew I missed Haines. I think Haines takes whatever weight he wants, 165 or 174. I couldn't pick which weight.
I don't see it with Sealey. I think he is a 157lber and I think Kasak will end up being better than him. Kasak could end up dropping to 149 after SVN and then Sealey is in at 157.
I didn't mean to forget Haines. I think he takes whatever weight he ends up wanting there and I am not going to put Messenbrink above Facundo until I see him in the lineup. So if Haines were to 'choose' 174 then I would say Facundo at 165.
In two years this is what I want...
125 - Davis
133 - Nagao
141 - Lilledahl
149 - SVN
157 - Kasak
165 - Messenbring
174 - Facundo
184 - Barr
197 - Mirasola
285 - Mirasola
Not really sure why he is dismissing Barr. Barr is likely looking at 3 or 4 years starting. Not sure why someone puts Ryder ahead of Barr at this point. Barr is a year ahead and is in the room now.
Awesome for Davison, man. It was cool to see that he didn't even take a visit to Michigan when he committed this last spring. He just knew. Despite him and Parris getting quite heated in more than one of their matches, they seem to get on nice. That is awesome and hopefully we see some sort of level jump from Davison this season. It looks like he won't have Cassioppi to contend with and Steveson might very well be out too...
That would be cool as hell to see Michigan get two in a row at HWT.
Ottawa County? Nice. I frequent the shores on your end of the state as often as I can. One of my kiddos lives in the Grand Rapids area.
It is difficult when you actually know things. My boy did tell me that Parris was keeping fresh in case the WWE did not allow him to go. I am happy that Parris was able to face Gwiazdowski and beat him at OTT so there was no doubt as to who should have been the rep to go.
When I saw Davison listed I texted damn near everybody I knew in and around the program still to ask if Parris got the nod and got injured so the only one ready was Davison and basically all of them did say 'Parris is fine and good to go' more or less. Almost scripted, so it does make sense now.
I feel for Steveson. You never leave wrestling after you are done. It isn't as port or a game, it's a way of life and a mentality that you don't escape - ever. You always have that itch. Hell... I am far above the 61 KG back in the day... depending on the day it's 70 KG or 74 KG... but whenever I see some of these older guys giving it a go... I want to as well.
I am with you and I agree... I just don't want to dismiss Mason as a legit thread yet. I don't see anything that Zare does that Mason shouldn't be able to physically handle. He is bigger, faster, and stronger than last time - same as Zare.
Definitely not crazy if you factor in that Steveson hasn't wrestled a competitive match internationally since the 2020(1) Oly games. Ergo he isn't an active international wrestler.
Imagine if(when?) he wins gold how silly that makes the rest of the wrestling world look.
He got sonned by Steveson... again. Three times this year.
And Steveson hasn't been actually wrestling competitively.
The biggest baddest wrestling man on the planet (weight classes exist for a reason) isn't even the best wrestler.
