  1. That's not what we are talking about... you specifically came out against due process when deporting illegals. Why do you hate illegals and the constitution so much?
  2. The point is: It doesn't get much more conservative than Afghanistan and they choose to ignore it. So let's not think we understand everything coming from another culture. Meanwhile you ignored this part: "But: Stuff was said about Khelif before the tournament; and to say that nothing was said in the 10 years prior just demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge."
  3. First of all: I'm not even sure where I stand on the Khelif situation. There is too much contradictory info out there. But: Stuff was said about Khelif before the tournament; and to say that nothing was said in the 10 years prior just demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge. As far as laws: Afghanistan also has laws against being gay; however that does not stop the widespread Pashtun custom of men repeatedly violating young boys; even having harems of them.
  4. Looks like Minnow took an 8th in 07. Pretty solid. Pyle would be in a world of trouble.
  5. Well, you see... this was OK, because it wasn't Trump. Nevermind that they all committed a crime by entering illegally or overstaying their welcome. Basically: either you're for due process or you're not. It shouldn't matter whom the president is.
  6. Wait... so you just came out AGAINST due process?
  7. If I recall correctly, Lee was on a "pitch count" that season and really gearing up for the Olympics. I think he wrestled day 1 and shut it down by design. He is absolutely not afraid of Patrick Glory. You are completely ignoring what Lee did to the US Open field, and especially Vito on December 21, 2019 while not wearing a knee brace. Midlands was 8 days after outscoring his opponents 50-4 in a field that included NaTo, Nahshon, Cory Clark, Zain Richards Vito, Zach Sanders, Nick Suriano, and Darian Cruz.... but he was afraid of Patrick Glory? Other Midlands facts that you misrepresented. 1. He was not facing Glory in the semis. He was facing Michael DeAugustino. 2. Patrick Glory struggled mightily in his own semi, needing sudden victory to defeat the immortal Brock Hudkins. Lee actually wrestled in in what was supposed to be an Olympic year; how many matches did Abas win at Midlands during his Olympic redshirt? Misrepresentation and PRIMACY EFFECT.
  8. I feel like brother was the state placer, abd Minnow was a 4x qualifier?
  9. I think @nhs67had the best explanation last week.
  10. I have no major problem either, but this earlier post is the first time I saw someone say that Lee was underwhelming in 2019-2020. He won the Hiodge AND the SULLIVAN! Yes, "very mid." Not to mention he demolished a strong field at the US Open, including a tech over Vito--- during the folkstyle season (wearing no knee brace).
  11. I think that some of us have some "primacy effect" to counterbalance the recency bias.
  12. That's a lot of writing to MISCHARACTERIZE everything. Was 2020 nationals cancelled or not? Did Lee ever lose to Pat Glory? Did Lee tech the fearsome Vito in freestyle during that 2019-2020 season? Did Lee lose twice at NCAA during his second season (like Abas) or ever? (No) And if Lee places at Worlds in September, the argument is over.
  13. But Lee was forced to miss an NCAA tournament (in which he wrestled the entire season and was healthy and in prime shape) whereas Abas chose to miss both of his seasons. Also, Lee was competing in a field with a lot of other sixth years, Abas was not.
  14. There was an update on an Iowa board saying: "Saw a message from his wife . He opened his eyes yesterday and was able to follow commands and squeeze her hand . They're starting to wean him off the sedation . He's in a tough fight but that is some positive news" I'm hoping it is accurate. (Thanks "west2east") (I tried to copy the URL, but this forum turned it into a picture file or something...)
  15. I just double checked and didn't think it was so bad upon second listen. I think the first time I listened was on a 12 mile run or something and may have been miserable. So at about 5:00 he basically says that he can't see Spencer beating him. OK. I get it. Then he comes back at like 8:00 and says Rivera took Spencer down 3-4 x in a match, so he pretty much sounded like he knew he'd be able to do the same. Talks briefly about some of Spencer's close matches and about being thrown by Ramos in the dual. Critical of Lee's awareness when caught in the position that got him pinned. It is possible that he mentions him again, but I started skipping through and didn't hear much. He loves Vito and liked Pat Glory though!
  16. Abas HATES that people think Spencer Lee is even in the conversation. He was on "Wrestling Changed my Life" circa 2023 and was clearly disparaging Lee.
  17. Do you predict an eventual downfall, or do you believe they will be the top NCAA team for eternity?
  18. Even though they collectively seem to have no respect for their existing infrastructure?
  19. Should they receive the federal funding to improve the infrastructure? Will they receive it?
  20. And I liked this aspect of the poll
