  1. I said the sign wasn't exactly the same . I just saw the only thing similar I understood. I asked about it because there was no fire in the kid's eyes- and I forgot to mention his coach was directly behind me. It might have been one of a few signs tied together as they might have been having a more substantial conversation. They told me it meant he was tired. But in looking the signs up before the previous post, I realized that the water sign was closer and he might have been saying I'm tired and I want water. Having the fingers like you mention near the mouth would have looked similar enough to the picture to fool me.
  2. LJ is tech support for Flo (mainly in the setup area- he's by far the best cable pull-up/arm wrapper ever). He came and worked the Preps the first couple years of Flo Arena software. The Flo table was a few yards from the head table and other side from the stairs coming down from the head table. For me to get his attention consisted of me throwing a frisbee into his sight line. Also, about 40 years ago I reffed the World Deaf games trials in Philly. No whistle. All hand signals. I enjoyed it. I don't know ASL. After one match, the kid that lost looked over towards me and made something like this- I guess he wasn't Italian and this means water. It's not exactly the same but ...

  4. Cejudo. He went to Grand Canyon graduating in 2015. Even if you discount that he went to college later than usual by age he was only 21 when he won in 2008. And he graduated HS in 2006.
  5. Once again, our JB takes the cake!
  6. Illinois is like a Little Croatia!
  7. For sure, although I hear there's someone else in the running with him now. (And no, I don't know who)
  8. Yevgeniy Bashmachenko Did become BIG literally and figuratively but believe it or not I remember him from the Prep Tournament. He wrestled for Poly Prep in 1994. Took 7th at 140! (pounds not kilos)
  9. You do realize who you're talking to here?
  10. Not sure I understand the question but someone trying to attend somewhere out-of-state might be offered a higher percentage amount than someone in-state to try to balance or beat the out-of-pocket total for that wrestler.
  11. They're in the WAC now.
  12. That was actually the main reason tech falls came up in the first place. I saw some Wisconsin scores around 50-25 and they would never try to turn. This was 70s and early 80s.
  13. He might not have been fully matriculated at Liberty. An article I read did mention grades as to why he didn't go immediately to Maryland. Plus the current rule of allowing someone a year after HS graduation before enrolling full time before it counts against eligibility might have been enacted for after his first year at Liberty. I think it went into effect in the 14-15 school year.
  14. And when they are pressured to testify- they'll all Singh!
  15. I wonder if she worked her gloves like Nomar?
  16. But just Berra-ly so!
  17. Whether you're crazy is irrelevant to this discussion. But he wrestled for both Sent from my Pixel 7 Pro using Tapatalk
  18. By the time I was involved with the D1 event (I started in '87), the main determination for the number of qualifiers per conference was the collective conference team score. Apparently, the Southern and SEC had waned considerably by then. The committee asked me to do the conference team score calculations and give my conclusions. The algorithm was simply (total conference score / total tournament score) * 330. IIRC, D2, D3 were always 20 and 10. I assume that by conclusions they weren't looking for wise-ass but wanted the number of qualifiers. But I decided to use this one as a loophole. As it turned out one of the conferences "earned" 0.6 qualifiers and the other 0.4. So in conclusion I suggested merging the conference and qualifying only the OW. They didn't use my conclusion.
  19. TBH, I didn't feel like listening to 10 minutes just now but did he say a loophole as to NCAA rules or to Ivy rules? Since Ivy rules are more stringent in this area it would seem to be more of an Ivy loophole.
  20. Was wondering what he was driving at!
  21. And all the previous generation (at least the males) were apostle names. John, Mark, Matthew, Luke, Jude, Andrew, Thomas and Simon. Sister Nancy Jean Skove (they told me as in NJS- New Jersey States)
