(Rumor) Three Penn State wrestlers wanted by police for assault
gimpeltf replied to RAFWiki's topic in College Wrestling
Davis IS still listed as certified and "eligible" on the OPC. Understand that being listed as eligible there only means he made it through the certification process. -
Are you suggesting the "Mission" would be held in Happy Valley?

I should clarify something in this. I wasn't saying that Flo didn't contribute to the issues with either scenario (V Tech or Kazakhstan). The complaints I saw here or on other fora were about blaming Flo Streaming issues. With most Flo tourney events, the streaming is from Flo cameras inside the arena and then interfacing with internet in that arena before it heads to the Flo cloud. I was saying that these two scenarios had nothing to do with Flo streaming, per se, since Flo wasn't filming either one. They were taking feed from others and distributing it. From feedback I was getting or seeing it seemed clear that V Tech issues were 100% at Flo (Flo cloud, I suppose as Willie was suggesting). I didn't hear anyone watching Service from the area having an issue it was all people outside the area. With Kazakhstan, it seemed to be that the complaints coincided with issues we saw with the UWW feed. I was basically asking if it seemed there were further Flo issues there also. I am just trying to get people to realize there are possible issues at all areas of a production - from local cameras to the local in house network to in house internet (those are two different things- the network is the connection between the head table and the mats before leaving the arena using internet).

There's no doubt it was UWW. They told us as much. We were watching their feed to use with Flo. We reported to them and they admitted. By their end, I don't know if it was the stream itself or the fact that they were having internet issues in that arena. But the problem was in Kazakhstan

Maybe Willie will know- Lehigh broadcasts with Service Electric and then it goes through Flo outside of the local service area. Do we know it was a Flo issue or a Service issue? It could be similar to Senior Worlds where it weas actually the UWW feed failing at times.

Mr Bassett is 20 as of this past August.

Unless you live more locally. It's a local broadcast.

To paraphrase Andy Murray correcting a reporter saying someone was the first American to reach Wimbledon finals Adeline Gray won 6 Worlds without winning an Olympic title. -

No, but the point is Flo has nothing to do with the local internet. Flo is passing along the UWW feed. I'm watching their feed and the UWW people are telling us the internet issue is at their end. -

Not sure who these hundreds are but if you're referring to ESPN or the like- they usually film from larger, better arenas. NCAAs, for example, are at professional team arenas. Flo is typically streaming from HS/mid to lower college or civic arenas. -

UWW tech sent us a message about them losing internet (spotty I guess). Been happening regularly this week. Maybe Elon cutting Starlink? -

BTW- on the audio/video issues- It's all from the UWW feed. watching that feed now- Flo can only pass it along and cut them into individual archival clips. -
Tommy (former Hawley Staffer) Gets Dunked on by Abdul
gimpeltf replied to Doublehalf's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
England: Button Gwinnett, Robert Morris, William Richardson Davie. Ireland: George Taylor, William Paterson, and other delegates born on the island. Northern Ireland: James Smith, Matthew Thornton. Scotland: James Wilson, John Witherspoon, Edward Telfair. Wales: Francis Lewis. British West Indies (Caribbean): Alexander Hamilton (born on the island of Nevis). Not sure that's very few but point taken- I was really mixing groups to the original group that did come over and how many of the actual founding fathers (Jefferson, Franklin, Paine, Madison, Hamilton and others) were Deists or at least influenced by them -

gimpeltf replied to Doublehalf's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
A number of you need to actually study US History (and pre-history). For one thing, although the majority of those that became the founding fathers were at one time Christians, one of the reasons they came over was to have more religious freedom to NOT have to worship in the Anglican system. Please research the concept of Deism. An argument can be made against whether atheism was originally considered valid under their plans. Please read the couple of phrases in the Declaration- Nature's God and the Creator. What Christian do you know that uses those phrases (especially Nature's God)? -

1st NCAAs 1928. Ben (~2 years younger brother) was a 2x NCAA champ graduating only a year earlier than John. It might have been named after Ben but he learned from John Lampe (Iowa St teammate) -

For Lehigh- Trenge mentioned earlier. His best year to win might have been his freshman year when he had the retinal injury and he had beaten both finalists. Colin Kilrain- 3x 3rd. Seeded 3rd/1st/1st. Lost 12-11 to Ed Banach in semis soph year. Joe Peritore- 2nd/2nd/3rd. Both 2nds were to 2x Olympic Gold and 3x NCAA 1st Yojiro Uetake. Some of you know this story (mostly the Lehigh people). His junior year final had Uetake winning but he was taking it easy (they knew each other). The ref called Uetake for stalling. Uetake says- "Sorry Joe" and pinned him. As Peritore walked off the mat and passed the ref- he told him- "Next time mind you own f$%^in' business!" -
