I hear it was by the Wagner Medical Group!

Just so you guys can compare numbers between repechage and full double- It's hard to give an exact number of bouts in repechage because it's dependent on whether the finalists had a pigtail or a bye. A championship bracket always generates 1 bout fewer than the number of wrestlers in each weight. Repechage would then add ~2x (R-2) where R is the number of possible rounds. So for example, if there are exactly 8 in the bracket, that's 3 rounds so 1 repechage bout on each side. Semi loser vs quarter loser. In a full double, you would again have 1 fewer bout than wrestlers on the championship side. If you wrestle to 8 places, you would again have exactly 1 fewer bout than the number of wrestlers if you place to 8. If you place to 4 it would then be 2 fewer bouts per weight (lose the 7/8 and 5/6).

Repechage is very similar to the system used at NCAAs in the 30s. It had two names attached but I don't remember them. The losers to the champ wrestled up the line for 2nd. Then the losers to the second did the same for 3rd. You couldn't get pictures of all the placers together because the champs were home already.

Dresser said he would host one so we could qualify 5 per weight!

Today was my day off so I can't speak about issues from today but I can attest that the UWW brackets and updating were often a complete mess and our group was reacting on the fly. One day they'd do 1 mat for semis and 2 on another day even though the original schedule was often to the contrary. And the Flo video was taken from the UWW feed. Not sure how others saw it but several of us were commenting on how choppy that feed was the first couple of days and then was quite smooth later.

I imagine Solomon appreciates somehow bringing his father's name into this but I assume you mean Ira Lubert.

I think the award is something like- Most Technically Prepared

Are you saying he was "off" about being "jacked"?

If his knees are down he's considered to be grounded and no step outs called.

Well they do have someone named Bolat!

Last qualifier match comment- The two crackheads!

I was wondering if that was it.

I love the "Please Rise For The Anthem Of United World Wrestling"!

Maybe it should be termed Challenge Accepted and/or Corrected

Did the Serbian crowd leave? I don't hear much. Sounds more like the Americans cheering.

Kirk Douglas?

Borat for Kazakhstan?

Buxton- with D Pritzlaff nearby

Ruby On Rails- not that I really know anything much about it. I've heard of it. I probably should have switched to something like that some years back.

2018 was a "grey" shirt year not red-shirt. It says in the article he was at Finger Lakes.

The corner video I saw from UWW (I was doing some minor work for Flo) showed pretty much empty. But given the crowd noise between the Serbians, Iranians and Americans they must have been mainly on the other side. The hundred or so I saw couldn't have made that much noise.
