How could I forget bison?

I've had a lot of stuff, but I don't think I've had antelope. The basics: cow, chicken, turkey, pheasant, whitetail deer, elk, gator, rabbit, kangaroo, lamb, goat, snail. There are still a lot I want to try, and I've probably forgotten a few. I actually think I have had some form of wild goat in addition to domesticated.

Geez! I clicked on this hoping to get a good recipe!

LOL GM Coastal. Yes it was intelligent. What makes Nagao "untouchable," especially since the last time they were in the same nationals bracket Bailey placed and Nagao was DNP. Bailey is also younger than Nagao who will be 24. Davis got a little out of hand. I wouldn't say that he is necessarily in the staff's good graces, as previously mentioned. untouchable lol

I'm talking around the wrestling world. People assumed Tsabalov was a dirty cheat. Gilman was just in "IDGAF mode." A lot of it has to do with laundry. The timing around the OSU departure is a bit odd, too.

They are both cases of people refusing to test. They are chosen because they are in the USADA pool. USADA is independent of UWW. There are those in the MMA world that question exactly how "random" USADA testing is btw

Yes, it is absolutely very similar. It is similar in that with both cases, you refuse to take a drug test. And some people are acting very differently about this than they did when Tsabalov was suspended for the same thing...

Totally incorrect.

You know the answer to that. The point is, a suspension is not a good look. Maybe not someone you want associated with your program. Are you aware that refusal to take a breathalyzer often results in a OUI conviction?

Because he is working with their athletes and he is suspended by a drug testing organization? Granted the PSU athletic department does have a history of looking the other way, but I would think that would make them extra vigilant.

I do wonder if PSU administrators are aware or even care that a coach/mentor with an association to their athletes is currently serving a USADA suspension. No, NLWC isn't officially a PSU thing, but PSU coaches are on the staff and are NLWC athletes. The NLWC coaches/athletes work with the PSU kids. Etc. Etc. There is a lot of grey area, and I have to wonder what admin would think about Gilman?

I don't recall saying it was. I'm just using it as a sign that he wasn't retired.

Which Iowa starters would not make PSU's 30 man roster?

... not to mention Gilman had a freestyle match against a Cuban on the ISU roster.

Ummm... guys use PEDs all the time and test negative. The chance isn't 0% though, especially when you are dealing with extreme fluid loss, I'd imagine. The only time a user is 100% sure that he won't test positive is when he doesn't take the test.

I mean, if I used PEDs and still didn't make the Olympic team, I would definitely avoid the testers over the coming year. And I'd have an alibi or two: " I had retired;" "I was in IDGAF mode" and my legacy would probably be ok. Imagine the stigma of losing and then testing positive? Not to mention, he's a really bad role model for those boys at NLWC. Also: loved how : Gilman has changed... "he got away from Iowa and turned over a new leaf " instantly turned into "he's a weird dude, cut right out of the TnT mold."

I'm happy that you learned something!

Is that why they are your heroes? And you actually believe them?

Leon Klinghofer begs to differ. 1972 Israeli athletes beg to differ.

Not if legislation, executive orders, pardons, etc. were being signed by autopen!

Joined Tuesday. One post. "Without facts or proof you shouldn’t throw someone under the bus let alone their son without knowing them."

You literally put "genocide" in quotes above, meaning that he literally used that term. And you call me stupid?

Oh... so he didn't say "genocide?" Didn't think so.

And you had a very odd interpretation of all that.

Netanyahu and Smotrich had to calm their supporters after letting a limited number of food trucks into Gaza by explicitly telling them "if we don't make these small symbolic gestures, the West will make us stop the genocide and we won't get Gaza." Those words were not spoken
