  1. I would have been all in to keep wrestling if I were in his shoes. That's why the NFL, NHL, MMA, Hockey etc. all have ways to pull the concussed athlete from competition. Don't leave it up to him/her or the coaches.
  2. There is a lot of info out there. Some symptoms last for over a year. Look what happens to most fighter's careers after they get knocked out for the first time. And then there's CTE. not to mention some other stuff. Surely you're aware?
  3. Much easier to get concussed after the first one. The more you have the easier you get them.
  4. NLWC coaches let a clearly concussed Taylor wrestle in World semis and finals. Of course Taylor wanted to go, and he's an adult, but he wouldn't have been allowed to continue in the NFL. In fact, he would have been done even in boxing or MMA.
  5. Captain America - no matches ranked #2.
  6. Unless you are Florida State.
  7. It is a thing! When I was coaching (d2/d3 college and high school) and had a Dad-bod, athletes who looked like statues of Greek gods and/or could lift a ton of weight would comment on how strong I was. And I didn't even feel particularly powerful for most of my college career (and was very average).
  8. And Bradley injured Cassar 4 years ago. Bad mojo.
  9. Yep. Wrestling with no ACLs has nothing to do with toughness or ability to handle adversity...
  10. https://thisislowermerion.com/shah-peer-oh-sha-pie-roh-how-do-you-say-shapiro/#:~:text=Everywhere else%2C the name Shapiro,not Shah-PEER-Oh.
  11. Wonder what Minnow's screen name is?
  12. His sister went on the flo insta to confirm this exact pronunciation.
  13. Same high school too, I think. But I thought Askren gave a lot of credit to Mike Eierman for funk development?
  14. Do you mean shrug, slide by, pass by, or PA.
  15. Allegedly very close friends, correct?
  16. Possibly too good at scrambling for Iowa. (with that being said, Spencer was one of the better scramblers in recent years)
  17. or quit the vape?
  18. 30 years ago, I was on a D2 team generally ranked in the 9th to 16th range. We probably wrestled almost half of our matches against lower tier D1 schools, and had plenty of dual wins. Much different time, though.
  19. Well, I suppose Foxcatcher beat them to it with Val, but I can't remember it happening in large numbers until PSU and the RTC era. They were certainly a pioneer in this regard.
  20. Perhaps fewer than 100 people over the age of 18 named "Austin Gomez" in the US (according to an unreliable internet source.) Still, I think its likely we have a match.
  21. His ambush phone-in to FRL was very heel-like, so is his "off the mat vibe." Gives off Bond-villain type energy.
