  1. It’s between David Carr and Aaron Brooks, and it’s a tough one. Brooks literally called out Muhammad as a false prophet after winning one year. But Carr started wearing those “100% Jesus” headbands that look like they were made as a 3rd grade art class assignment. I can’t choose.
  2. I hope the cop that got her ass grabbed by lots of these dudes got a big bonus. I didn’t realize that was in the job description. She must have gone home and taken a long shower that night…
  3. Ted Haggard? You know what he did after getting caught? A few years later he started another church…with his wife!
  4. Interesting, I didn’t realize this type of game already existed. In any case, the wrestling version is very cool.
  5. If you expanded this to football/basketball you could probably make some good money off this.
  6. He is the face of FCA in the wrestling world, he puts on camps mixing wrestling and Christian belief. That goes way beyond just attributing success to faith.
  7. You get a lot right here, but I have to take issue with the idea that people are just calling out his faith. They aren’t. They are calling out the hypocrisy of what he says and preaches to others and how what he does behind closed doors goes completely against it. If he wasn’t so outspoken about lifestyle, morality, the right path, then I’d be with you.
  8. Reminds me of the Grajales Alton match where the build up was who was going to gas first. Let’s just say the crowd got their moneys worth.
  9. I didn’t list the quote because of who said it.
  10. Exactly, Islam has all the same hypocrisy and fake personas as Christianity, Judaism etc.
  11. This captures it all. 1st retort is not a heartfelt empathic public video apology. its another virtue signaling bible verse
  12. Exactly. This is why people are reacting. It’s not the same as lots of other athletes/celebrities that get caught. It’s because he has a holier than thou persona and speaks as an authority of Christian morality. It’s beyond hypocritical. And all the other guys in that camp giving him a free pass reveal their true colors too. It’s all a schtick.
  13. Of course he will. It’s the perfect “out” for him.
  14. Why, does he have a history of that?
  15. Very difficult to see him competing in trials at this point.
  16. Is it part of Gods plan that he did this? What if it was with a man, is that part of gods plan? If so, where does free will and personal accountability come in? This will end up getting framed as I transgressed and I’m getting back on the right path. All part of gods plan.
  17. For those of us without twitter what did Nickal say about all this?
  18. If he wasn’t so outspoken about what other people should believe and the “right” way to live I really wouldn’t care that he did this…
  19. The Russian criticism of the US approach is that it’s too focused on conditioning/physicality, and not enough on technique/strategy. And they consistently prove that criticism to be true each World Championship/Olympics. This refutes the whole argument that success in wrestling is purely or mostly conditioning based.
  20. So one style of wrestling technique is not more special than another. Why does that matter? Technique is extremely important in any kind of grappling/martial art etc. Who is saying wrestling is unique in this respect?
  21. Hasn’t Cole usually been in a weight class or two below Connor? But this past weekend Cole was heavy and Connor was two classes below. Seems they both are naturally somewhere in the 92-97 kg weights for freestyle. What are their planned weights for the up coming college season? Does one of them take over for Kerk? Also curious how they each stack up vs Barr in the room.
  22. Yes, that’s what I’m saying
  23. Messenbrink Sr. and AWA have been around long enough that there are many great wrestlers they’ve produced. I can’t think of any that have the attack rate and pace of MM (maybe there are, I just can’t think of any). I’m sure the way Messenbrink Sr. ran practices had a lot to do with Mitch’s style. But what other Messenbrink guys wrestle that way? To me, this supports the idea that he has some inherent quality or trait that’s very hard to train for.
  24. I agree it’s something along these lines. We had a guy on our team in college with an endless motor (but not near the skills of Messenbrink). I remember one of the coaches, who was an AA, said something like he didn’t just anybody could train themself to have that type of pace. A lot of it was probably genetic.
