  1. I was thinking Baby Billy's Bible Bonkers
  2. Not that it matters, but where does it say who he was meeting?
  3. That and "Brooks was closer to winning gold than Spencer Lee."
  4. He has often been mentioned as being PSU on this board. "PSU has four USA Olympians Zain, Dake, Brooks, and Snyder." I would say: "They have two: Zain and Brooks. Snyder and Dake went to OSU and Cornell and are NLWC." The response would be something like: "They are PSU now. When they actually wanted to get good, they moved to State College. They are in the PSU room every day. They help the PSU kids and root for PSU." The same was said about Gilman.
  5. I'll be very surprised if this has any effect on his competition status. Didn't he basically receive a ticket?
  6. Sandhagen is notoriously bad on the mic and probably knows it. Bo is also horrendous on it; but clearly does not know it because he will gladly embarrass himself at every opportunity.
  7. I'm just saying that if RDR's English is not strong that it might account for the lack of RDR interviews in American MMA media.
  8. Nothing discriminatory about this statement whatsoever. Judging a person by their appearance. Ableist, classist, etc. What happened to the compassionate left?
  9. Yes, when I was coaching football I had angry coaches approach me after the game bc our SS was trying to punch the ball out of their HBs in as we were losing late in the game. The coaches though he was throwing body blows.
  10. No, look at my quote... y'know the one you responded to. I said 1953. So, that was constitutional law at the time. You would have enforced it, correct?
  11. So in 1953, you would have upheld Plessy v. Ferguson's interpretation of the 14th amendment?
  12. I think it is also important to note that Bo has been involved in MMA a lot longer than 3 years. He began pursuing it in 2019. DC was involved in trying to get Bo managed by Zinkin Entertainment, but it looks like Bo signed with First Round Management instead. That was November 2019. Bo was sidetracked by Covid (and so was everyone else) but I'm sure he was still training MMA, even going into 2021 Olympic trials. So, basically he has been a pro MMA fighter for about 5.5 years. That should be enough time to figure things out.
  13. Bo started out in Masvidals iKon Fighting Championship,
  14. And its not true either. Bo started out in the IFC.
  15. Wouldn't be my choice of words, but I bet Bo has used it at least once!
  16. I'm guessing they don't want some "bowling" style celebration, so they are covering all bases? Flagrant misconduct would generally be a punch, a brutal headbutt, a bite, etc. Not a thrown headgear. I would imagine a situation came up last year where a ref thought a kid did something flagrant and it was a mistake. I'll give an example: When a shrug first started becoming big in the 90s, I taught my team the technique. My state champ 171 attempted one in a match. The ref had not been evolving with the sport and thought my guy had thrown a forearm shiver. He was penalized, thankfully not a flagrant. It only takes one or two situations like this for a rule to be put into place.
  17. As a ref, I'm already seeing the ways this can be gamed. I'd love to let Bouzakis up to avoid the reversal and not even have to give up an escape point.
  18. Don't tell Bo that! He thinks he is full of 'rizz. Honestly, I was not a fan of his in college. I liked his style but couldn't stand his blue hair or most of his interviews. Guy was good though. I have been rooting for him in MMA, though. Honestly, I have been rooting for him in the way that Mineo thinks we should all be rooting for him. He's a wrestler; I support wrestlers. At the same time, I am fine with Iowa (or other) fans who wanted him to be humbled. It is their right, and the guy has been cringe. But what I saw against Paul Craig, and even worse against RDR, has left me very disappointed in him.
