  1. Always like that line. Applicable everywhere, always.
  2. I was watching - then closed my eyes at the end - I'm thinking it didn't happen if I didn't see it. Kind of like a tree falling in the woods.
  3. No doubt, Spencer isn't unbeatable this year. I'm sure the guys in the ACC are assembling their best wrestling minds and are going to make a run at him.
  4. We've got the JV team of Tim Johnson and that other noisy guy.
  5. Agree that Bernie is not the guy - don't agree with many of his positions. I never voted for him. But I like to listen to politicians who are honest about real change. Most pay it only lip service - and nothing ever changes. I also like U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas). Don't agree with a many of his positions either, but he seems honest about calling out the self-serving, circus antics of some of those currently in Congress. Instead of being supported for political reasons by those that should know better, those clowns should be exposed and sent packing. That's a change I'd like to see. Won't fix everything, but throwing the bums out would be a good start. Marxist, fascist, socialist, etc. are all labels being thrown around to get people angry and distract them from the things that are simple, obvious, and we can all support. I don't have a problem with politicians making money. We all need to make money - the world runs on money. As long as they aren't taking taxpayer/government money, insider trading, making decisions based on the money they receive from lobbyists (aka 'bought off'), or other underhanded/under the table shenanigans. Books, events, and the like seem legitimate to me.
  6. Sarcasm. Good way for you to vent, but not useful for anybody else in the conversation. The federal government has been inefficient for many decades. Through both blue and red administrations. The NEXT question is - except for whining, what are we going to do about it? More promises that aren't kept by more BS politicians? That is exactly what Bernie is trying to address. He's different than the others because he's all about significant change and making it happen NOW. If you don't agree with Bernie's policies - that's just fine. I understand that. I didn't vote for him either. But I like him. He's honest and no BS. Nobody else is. We can keep bitchin' around in circles and get nowhere, or we can try to find somebody who fits the bill and puts helping the country above helping themselves (and those that financed their campaigns.) I don't think Bernie is the guy... but I think Bernie is the guy to listen to, because he's got the right idea - and the right guy may be in the next generation of candidates. Lord, I hope so. We really need a leader who is about leading instead of being about himself.
  7. After further review, I've got to agree with LJB here. ND is the west edge of the 'midwest', but not quite proper 'west.' Also, a point worth mentioning, NDSU is basically on the ND/MN border - more east by the length of ND. In any case, good stuff on this thread.
  8. Yes, people realize that. And every single time, it is a pathetic display of poor sportsmanship that should be rectified. Every single time.
  9. ... let's be clear, overhook below the upper arm and instead on the elbow against the joint. and then twisting hips for leverage to swing in and snap it. Ouch, damage. Mspart then smacks the sh** out of him first - then calls it illegal and DQ's him. And then gives him a swift kick in the as* for good measure. Good work by the ref. That's the name of that tune. I feel much better.
  10. Posting link(s) one more time for those that are on the tail end of the thread. If I'd have pulled something like this, my coach would have slapped the sh** out of me afterward. Kids are soft now, living in a world of privilege and entitlement. Not even remotely afraid of rules or coaches. I guess, maybe it's better... but, I do have my reservations from time to time. This kid being one of those times.
  11. I'll give you maybe 2 out of 5 stars. Not great at all, but solid effort.
  12. Your alter-ego JackrabbitFan239 seems to have called it a night. Maybe you need to fire that username up to start posting again... not sure if that would make you more or less pathetic, but fire it up. We'll see.
  13. I never said 'irredeemable'... But I'm not against euthanize for you. You seem to be a rotten, hateful, SOB. The world has more than enough of those.
  14. Thanks for the thoughtful post. If anyone hasn't watched the video, watch it. Tanner is a very, tough wrestler, and he was looking around trying to figure out how the heck this guy was getting away with trying to maul him. It wasn't wrestling, it was a kid who clearly wasn't mentally stable.
  15. .. he cleary knows what a 'punk' actually means, though. Right?
  16. To most of us, untrustworthy is an insult. Not to mention being a liar and a cheat. You seem to accept it willingly and gleefully... This is a weird deal.
  17. Putting silly forum squabbles aside, let's get back to the subject at hand... This situation is a problem. The coaches and refs need to be held accountable, as well as the wrestler.
  18. Seems odd that your handle is JackrabbitFan239, yet you are not a fan of SDSU at all... you seem untrustworthy. More likely a lying cheat.
  19. You can't possibly be serious. If you can't differentiate between wrestling moves and punching, you are in the wrong place.
  20. Yes, Yes, LBJ - it is that some supposed to be some. Others thought you were dumb as a stick, but I defended you. You're just fine.
