I think that ship has sailed. It's both smooth and wet...

Well...that, but just trying to shift the "who's the biggest domestic terror threat," discussion! This is TRUMP'S FBI. Who is he describing? Pretty much the epitome of the man who shot a couple Elected politicians!

it was el luchador.. you are both morons, so forgive my mistake pol pot was a domestic terrorist, just in a different country. that's an amazing statement for someone to make. How do you write like that and then talk about the USA's educational system? Look at the Blue States? Their Math, Reading scores, they're on par with China, Japan. It's the Red States bringing us down(in nearly every metric). Second, LOL...did you seriously just say Pol Pot was a "domestic terrorist, just in a different Country?" Boy, you're a special brand of stoopid! We're talking about the USA you clown! Not a Cambodian who's been dead 30 years that nobody gives a fecal movement about! LOL..."domestic terrorist, just in a different Country." Emperor Hirohito(another example of the FAR Right like Hitler) was also a "domestic terrorist, just in a different Country," which... is a HILARIOUS way to try and completely change the topic, but I don't think you're trying to be funny, just your natural state of stupidity! Legal definition of "Domestic Terrorism." But yeah, people should KEEP bringing up...Pol Pot!

Riiiight... but equating with assassinating LAWMAKERS and "damaging Tesla's." Scout, you're a pathetic excuse of a human being.

Ok...but he's gonna have to RS one year. Next 2 years, I think Mesenbrink stays at '65. He doesn't have the frame for '74 IMO. So...unless one goes up, they're best weights will be '57. Makes more sense to RS Duke, then Kasak, Duke goes '57 year 2, '65 the last year. You also have Cunningham's, Sealy, Jayden James on his way(not as pressing), Henckel and several others right now. Unless Mesenbrink can grow into '74...I don't know if it matters.

Well, no, they're going to call them men because... they just can't wrap their head around it. They can wrap their head around a story in which God sends his Son(who is the same) to Earth and then there's also a Ghost and that's the same(all three are 1...the Dad and he Son, same entity)...and that makes complete sense. But a dude who thinks they're really a women is just this thing they CANNOT possibly fathom! Either way, yes, you can just be polite and try and call them what they wish. That said, no, they don't get to compete against women. 1-You shouldn't be starting kids on HRT before puberty. Way-WAY-WAAAAAY too many children not old or mature enough that have made that decision...end up regretting it. So there shouldn't be kids transitioning before puberty. Those numbers are high and vary a great deal because... to Matt Walsh's ignorance, there are not "millions and millions" of kids who are transitioning. There are too many responsible Doctors and it's a pretty...vigorous psychological testing you need to go through(or there is supposed to be). 2-Either way, the number of those who transition before puberty is nearly 0. There is an unfair genetic advantage, we have men and women's divisions for a reason. I don't pretend to know what to do about DSD. Have THEM take HRT or whatever else for 2 years to get their testoterone down and maybe they can compete.

Sure...I'll get right on that. I hereby decree any criticism of Iowa coaches Terry and Tom Brands null and void as their training style has evolved with the sport of Wrestling, they are regularly peaking in March... namely as I'm REALLY tired of hearing anytime another Wrestler of any age or circumstance, no matter how unrelated to the criticism the Brands Brother and Iowa program received(and then amplified more than any person could have by continually and daily expressing their outrage at this wholly unjustified critique) ... being used to complain about... something. There shall be NO questions asked why Iowa transfers more often than not(yes, I know multiple 3rd place finisher in a weight Aaron Broks and others vacated won the title this past year...barely edging out Josh Barr) You hoped I went after the "Iowa is always hurt!/Knee brace!/Shoulder Brace!" crowd, though I doubt I've evicted them from the minds of Iowa fans where they live rent free. You repeated you hope I go after the guys. This was so important so as to mention it twice. So ladies, you can say this all you like and it is fine. Weekhawken does not wish me to "go after" you with the same enthusiasm.

LOL...you're not a serious person. You type a lot of words just to say you don't live in the real world, just in Matt Walsh documentaries. Also, can I just ask; How often are you doing this and why? Never once has this been asked of me...or anyone I know.

Well...as much as you post here and as often as I post here, you'd think I'd know THAT, now just how much you talk about Penn State and Iowa. And what happens? It's Wrestling dude. I've had 15...16 surgeries. There's no avoiding it. They'll come for everyone. Concussions aren't generally the result of training-Shapiro. Vito has ben pretty consistently healthy, but they pile up. Especially when it's Sr level Wrestling. So...I don't know why "nobody" talks about it because I give it so little thought.

I don't know...they seem to perform well in March, so it's really not an issue. That's the key component people don't seem to be getting when they belabor this point made by both their own fan base or other fanbases. 1-It's about their College team. 2-It's about doing the best you can to keep them healthy and performing well at a high level. It's not about a 34 year old Kyle Dake getting banged up, or a ~27 year old Vito Arujau who trains part time with Titan on the West Coast. Seriously, Iowa fans...let this one die. You've been keeping it going for so long...

LOL...imagine living in this world? A Matt Walsh documentary! The guy who studied "the trans issue" for decades and then when asked how many kids(ie, those below 18) were on HRT, he said "oh million, millions," and...about 3-5 minutes later, Rogan, dubious of the intellectual Matt Walsh's claims fact checks him...4200, less than 1000 a year! That's where you're getting "the left" can't answer what is a women? How pathetic is your life dude? You live in a social media bubble. I guess the right then is a short, fat, bald middle age to elderly man espousing racial slurs with their fat wives...and they can't wait to stop talking about a civil war! I mean, I see that on social media! Also, how ignorant are YOU that you're just constantly asking what a women is and being asked to leave? I can picture it, foam coming out of your mouth, screaming, 'ANSWER THE QUESTION! WHY WON'T YOU ANSWER IT, WHAT IS A WOMEN,' as the scared day care assistant ushers the kids back inside!

Was his wife there? That's the only reason I'd really care...it'd still be his fault, but you feel bad for her.

A world gold medalist vs a world silver medalist... A 4X NCAA Champ vs a 2X Champ That's a horse apiece IMO. I think PJ Duke is gonna be the guy who takes over the 74KG weight for about a decade in the near future. It MIGHT not happen until Carr-Mesenbrink get to Wrestle in LA, but it's the perfect weight for him. He can grow into it and he's obviously already elite.

I'll still take Ross over Bassett. Finding a guy who can dominate and score points at HWT is harder than finding a '49 pounder. The way Blaze is getting to his offense? That's gonna be a problem! His defense is so insane, if he can keep getting to the legs and scoring, he could be a 3X and win it next year at '33 and would end up at...what, '49 most likely.

You are just an incredible moron. 1-We're talking about POLITICAL ASSASSINATIONS. That you're even citing Tesla's "Being damaged" is a sign you know you're soooo full of crap here kid. 2-Trump was shot by a WHITE REPUBLICAN. -You had the right storm the CAPITAL in order to stop the PEACEFUL transfer of power...for the first time EVER. -A plot to KIDNAP Gretchen Whitmer - Buffalo, New York (May 2022): 10 Killed by kid espousing the "Great Replacement theory. Allen, Texas (May 2023): Far right nutjob killed eight people at a shopping mall. He wore a "Right Wing Death Squad" patch and had tattoos of fascist symbols. Jacksonville, Florida (August 2023): A shooter killed three Black individuals at a Dollar General store. Authorities confirmed the attack was racially motivated, with the perpetrator leaving behind writings expressing hatred towards Black people. How about JUST Black Churches shot up RECENTLY? 1. Emanuel AME Church, Charleston, SC – June 17, 2015 White supremacist Dylann Roof entered the congregation and killed nine Black worshippers at a Bible study. It was classified as a domestic terrorism and hate crime. Roof was sentenced to death 2. St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church, Vestavia Hills, AL – June 16, 2022 A 70‑year‑old gun dealer opened fire during a potluck dinner, killing three senior parishioners and wounding one. He was subdued and later sentenced to life in prison en.wikipedia.org. 3. Shiloh Gospel Temple (predominantly Black), North Providence, RI – February 2024 Arsonist Kevin Colantonio attempted to burn the church exterior, motivated by racist writings found at his home. No injuries occurred, but he faces federal charges that could bring decades in prison Should we keep going? Gabby Giffords, Paul Pelosi, on the Minneapolis riots set off by a White Supremacist COP who covered his face, but was too stupid to cover other identifying markers. And seriously, stop with "Pol Pot." It's a punch line and I thought it was a joke, but because you know how stupid it was to bring up Pol Pot when talking about the greatest threats to DOMESTIC TERRORISM, you have to double down now and force some tenuous connection. I'm not going back and doing the Pol Pot, Hitler thing because you're not intellectually capable of understanding that fascism is far right because you're not capable of having that type of intellectual debate and you just post someone else's YouTube videos...LOL... So we're JUST going by actions. I can see why you'd want to cite "damaged cars," when talking about TERRORIST attacks.

LOL... no, you didn't say anything with any level of nuance. You just later found an article from THIRTY YEARS AGO that said his "legacy lives on," and you...DIDN'T READ IT! it had NOTHING to do with the left or Domestic Terrorism! You're too dumb to actually red what you write, but it's even more obvious you didn't read that NYT article

Minnesota shooting suspect told friend in text message: I might be dead soon | Reuters Pol Pot was behind another Domestic Terrorist attack...

You moreso than others. You cited Pol Pot as the largest Domestic Terrorist threats. You see Pol Pot shoot up any Democrats today?

LOL... PSU has a World Champ, a guy who just took 3rd and now a World Team Member all joining their record breaking team last year. Wrestlers who will score a single team point for Iowa in the future-0 Wrestlers who will score points for Penn State in the future. Duke beat a 4X Champ and a World Silver Medalist... Blaze just smoked a guy who's a 3X AA and took 2nd at a weight higher than he'll Wrestle! Haines won easily and Mesenbrink is running through 165 the next 2 years. But impressive little narrow pathway for Iowa to tie PSU in...some way!

I'd ask again why you are the way you are, but I'd get nowhere. Lee was a heavy favorite. Barr...was also a dog. Duke is a Sr in HS who wrestled a 4X National Champ. Did ANYONE think these guys were "unbeatable?" In fact, I think Flow picked these matches and...didn't they ALL pick this except for Mesenbrink?

I mean...I'm not saying you're "wrong." This is a totally subjective exercise to begin with and frankly a little pointless.... other than just BSing and having fun! Who's better, LeBron or Jordan, Brady or Montana...it's really all just subjective and people love arguing them. I think Dake, peak Dake at 149 was better at the NCAAs and would have beaten Caldwell. I also think Metcalf is right up there with Zain and anyone else at 149. That would seem contradictory, I get that. But I'm also thinking about that Caldwell 19-3 loss vs Metcalf in the same season he beat Metcalf by throwing the kitchen sink at him. I see a 149 NCAA Dake not being scored on, at LEAST not easily...and then just riding the hell out of Caldwell. But being as it's a fictional matchup... so you can't be wrong. I'd also argue that...149 when Caldwell won it wasn't particularly tough relative to any other year. Kyle Ruschell took a 3rd, Bryce Saddoris was in the semis. Both tough Wrestlers, but not quite like the prior year with Burroughs, and that "toughest weight ever," discussion. Brooks did lose to Marcus Coleman. That's my mistake. And yes, Askren being ahead of his time and you're belief that he was better at his "peak" definitely makes sense to me. All these make sense to me. Each point. Askren's... appearance also belied his strength and physical ability. I remember Dana White insulting him physically, but anyone remember him in on a single, arms stretched out, Jake Herbert, a BIG '74 pounder and Askren was on his stomach, Herbert was heavy hipping the hell out of him, he was trying to break his grip to get around behind and he couldn't. Askren's grip was insane and his shoulder strength AND flexibility was...just freakish. I don't think there's a Wrestler who could match him in that regard.

Very. I don't think he's touching Zain. I think Metcalf tried to bully guys a bit too much and got out of position and Caldwell let it fly, but...for instance, Soph Dake is dominating Caldwell...IMO. Also, didn't Metcalf tech Caldwell that year? May have been the All-Star Classic, but, I thought he teched him the same year he lost. Caldwell got the spladdle, Metcalf came back and just overwhelmed him. But I could be off on the year. He took a loss vs an Olympic Bronze Medalist. Who he lost to has to matter, no? Ruth lost to a guy who went 3,1,1,2 I don't think Nickal is beating Brooks. I just think Brooks had tougher brackets and Ryan Preisch and Nicholas Gravina, 1 AA between them(I think) wrestled Nickal to a 1 point match. He still won... but Brooks...I mean, the Olympic Bronze Medalist beating him in the B1Gs in OT... I think the way JB was ascending may be coloring that view. I remember him having a GREAT match with Andrew Howe where he jumped out to a lead and Howe just kept coming back and wearing him down. JB wasn't quite there yet(in terms of his peak) but if you think he beats Dake, Taylor...even Mesenbrink...I can see it. Askren, I think his peak year was his Jr year. What he did to Herbert and just how free he wrestled. The thing I'm doing is looking at how Starocci would Wrestle him NOW where he can limit the scoring and he's always in position, but nobody could do that to Askren. Take that Askren and put him in the 2025 NCAAs and I think Starocci beats him. But I can see the last two...I definitely can't see the two before that and I don't know who wins peak Abas vs peak Lee, so sure! They're definitely different perspectives and I don't have a problem with Askren over Starocci because...again, I think just going by tittles is boring and misleading. Not that I have a problem with any, the only one I think is a bit out there is Caldwell, but he did put on a display vs Metcalf!

I don't like Metcalf(the Wrestler...not the human, I don't know him). I just found so much of what he did to be performative and I don't care for the extra shoves and the pushing yourself up off a guys head and the extra shove out of bounds. It's...fake tough to me... BUT...when I saw someone say he didn't belong in the discussion, I thought that was...ridiculous. I think it's a given that as a Freshmen, he'd have competed for an NCAA Title. I think he'd have won it...which would have made that Caldwell match all the more important historically, but...still, he was the best Wrestler in the Country. Just as I still think Stevenson was the best Wrestler at HWT this year and Spencer Lee at 125 a few years ago. Not taking anything away from Caldwell. He did it twice. He wasn't afraid to pull the trigger and Metcalf's style was a detriment in that match, but IF you give Metcalf a 4th year, I think it'd be a REALLY tough call. But I don't know how you go against Retherford. 3X at 149... I don't think Ruth ever let his foot off the gas, I just think the sport got easier for him. Are you crazy for thinking a guy who went 3/1/1/1 would beat a guy who went 2/2/1/1? No...of course not. Ruth is an all-time great. Maybe he beats Starocci and Brooks. He was so smooth and so easy, relaxed. But it's an opinion. It comes down to how do you think Askren scores on Starocci/Ruth vs how do you think they score on him. I think Starocci was so methodical and Ruth was similar, but he was also more aggressive pulling he trigger in other area's that it may have actually hurt him.

What are you babbling about now? You're certainly not the only one who thought he'd be able to Wrestle at FinalX. In fact, most did. Saying "no one cares," is ignorant. Meanwhile, Downey, who you are a big fan of for some reason did about 20X what Snyder did and was not wanted just about anywhere. But sure, it was for "just breathing."

I'm sorry, what the hell am I missing? How is HE classless? Can't be this part. We all agree with this; Ignorance...as most of us are about the cause or his vaccination history. Still...hoping he makes a full recovery. Still not seeing what's classless yet. This surely can't be it. This is just... information how it could have gotten it a number of different ways and in no way focuses on Askren's personal issue or lies any "blame" or does anything to show any lack of class...so far as I can see.
