  1. Yeah...for exactly that reason. Do you think they want to know your location just for their own amusement? They want to know so they can test you whenever they feel like it. (Not...literally you, the royal you, I'm assuming you understand this). So...just NOT Wrestling doesn't mean you're immune from testing...which was the stupid theory. 'If he's not Wrestling, he can't be tested, that's why he's taking a year off.'
  2. Oh...that clown show was embarrassing. How do they get SO much wrong? And why are they bringing him in to do a video presentation? But even setting that aside, it was just riddled with factual inaccuracies. Bringing up pictures from the Congo and then talking about this mass grave(Where nobody is buried). But...nobody really seems to mind. It's kinda like 'eh, that's Trump, funny hair, makes stuff up...par for the course.'
  3. It's really just a weird move to not show up to this if you're PSU. Make a million dollars and you get some good early competition and... I don't know, it's just good for the sport. I really don't get why you'd NOT want to do this. But, this should be cool. Okie State vs Iowa...and then I'll take Ohio State. Iowa vs Ohio State Final this year...I think.
  4. Ok...so lets circle back to the logic that Aaron Brooks is using this year to just take steroids to get bigger. Do we see now why that doesn't make any sense?
  5. You do realize how stupid this bet is, right? I mean... I've said I think Penn State may have added the BEST Wrestler in the World as of right now(a bit hyperbolic, but not much). I'm not down on Ono...but you ALMOST certainly lose. He gives up a RT this year, I win(and not if he doesn't go down). He doesn't, you win. You're basically betting that he's not going to get ridden once. So, hypothetically, he can win a match 9-4(Crookham for example) and give up a RT once, you lose, I win. We can just make this a fun little wager. I'm not all that eager because...I'm also kinda rooting for the kid, this just seems pretty obvious to me.
  6. Yeah, that's usually a short term thing. Immediately following a concussion. If someone is getting concussions to the point they can't work out or train...they gotta stop. It's not worth it.
  7. Ok...then I win. I don't expect him to Wrestle a whole bunch of matches. I'd expect he'd only take down earlier in the season...if even then. I don't expect a 5-10 Wrestler in Rd 1 of the Black Knight to necessarily ride him, but vs the better Wrestlers, I think IF he goes down...he will. That's it.
  8. So tell Gene that! I didn't want to make this about money. It was a simple disagreement that is pretty basic, but if he wants to put money on the line that Ono is not going to get ridden because he's...21, then so be it.
  9. LOL...Thank You! Now we have other people bringing in odds! No, I'm saying it's not a bet if he chooses neutral(how is this confusing). That'd undermine your whole point. If it's so easy for him to get out because he's 21 years old...which is just a weird take, then he'll go down. That's it. It's simple. You wanting to make it one period is...really stupid...for you(also kinda confusing HOW that would work) Now you're eliminating the RT he will get from taking guys down? Yeah, I really have no idea how you would even make it one period? It's a simple premise. I don't think he's going to choose down vs tough riders. There's enough he's already got to pick up in short order. I think he's going to do the SMART thing and try and Wrestle on his feet. You can just watch Bastida or other guys who came over and hadn't Wrestled Folkstyle. It's not the age of physicality, it's...HAVING NEVER DONE IT....which, again, how is this even being debated? If it was the physicality, then you'd see kids having the same or more of an issue with hand fighting. It's about a mindset that's different in College, it's about stringing moves together, it's about not being able to use junk to be able to get out. It's a mental exercise as much or more than it is physical...and I think it's silly to think he's just not going to have any problem with that.
  10. LOL...no. I didn't bring this up or start with this nonsense. This started with him arguing Ono won't get ridden and the only reason kids get ridden or have trouble wrestling on the mat is because they're not physical enough...but Ono is, so it won't be a problem. I don't agree(and it seems really basic IMO).
  11. That was AWLAYS the stipulation. Follow along. this was a two-prong debate. 1-He's arguing it's the physicality of a 22 year old vs that of an 18 year old that makes the difference, ergo, Ono won't have a problem. Not the development, not the technique, just the difference in age. 2-I've NEVER changed my position with regard to Ono...and it's so basic, I'm not sure how it's even up for debate. He's going to be fine on his feet...but Mat Wrestling is going to be an issue. I DON'T believe it's about age, I think Blaze, Forrest and Lillendahl could get out and Wrestle on the mat a helluva lot better than Ono. That's not a slight...he's Wrestled a different style his entire career. So one person is arguing Ono won't have a problem getting out due to...his age and physical maturity, the other is arguing he will because it's something he's NEVER had to do and now he's Wrestling the best in the world at it. I'd also point out, the same person said he'd be fine on top because of his Gut Wrench...which again, is objectively absurd for obvious reasons. The primary being...it's not legal in this style. The other being, you don't have a guy just laying on the mat, you have someone actually moving and trying to come up and you have to develop a series of moves on top, not just a gut.
  12. Ok, lets come up with the criteria? If he gives up a RT point this year WHILE TAKING DOWN, you lose. If he takes down and doesn't give up RT, I lose. Sure...we have a deal. 20, 50 bucks?
  13. I don't know... a lot of people are very literal about the Bible. I have an Uncle who...when I was trying to make sense of this Religion that I'd been taught all my life(I won't say indoctrinated, I would just say it's just what you did, you went to all the Lutheran stuff, it was just...something you had to do). But I was asking 'Ok, but you don't really believe someone lived for 3 days inside a Whale, right?" And he said "yup." And then I'd asked, 'ok, how about the part where you can sell your daughter into slavery if they disobey you,' and he started to justify slavery in certain situations ...and I just tapped out. I said I can wrap my head around these having messages and...all that, but if you mean all this is 100% literal, I think that's just too hard for me. But...that's what he...and many others believed.
  14. I just think it's a poor decision...in most cases. In Wrestling, I think it's probably about as good of an area to be conservative and promote that than anywhere else. The sport absolutely skews to the right towards conservative Christian values. So looking at endorsement deals, I get it. I've worked in sales and now own a small business and there's absolutely no reason for me to put my name and political or religious views points out there for public consumption. The old Jordan, "Republicans buy sneakers too," comment. I mean... Jordan's opinions reached a billion people, maybe more. Mine reach...like 12, but still, seems like an overall good philosophy.
  15. Well...he's only got the one kidney left. If my kid needs one, he's pretty much screwed at this point.
  16. 1-No, he doesn't. He's experienced zero NCAA Wrestling yet. In fact, has he EVER Wrestled ANY Folkstyle match? It's kinda amazing you think these kids coming out of HS are struggling because of the Physical Maturity rather than the adjustment to a different level of Wrestling, but you think it's going to be EASIER for a guy who has NEVER done it to be able to get out on bottom? Marcus Blaze, Jax Forrest-Not as physical, 3-4 years younger than the guys they'll be Wrestling. I promise they'll have less trouble on bottom than a guy who has never done it before. ....no. Because I don't think he'll TAKE the bottom position. If you want to account for that, then absolutely I'd bet you. He takes bottom vs Crookham, he's wearing a saddle. Though I assume he won't be stupid enough to.
  17. I call a Freshmen finishing each match with a TD over a defending Champ...both NCAA and World....to be soundly beating him. And he gave up the 1st TD. So Crookham came from down 3-1 and won 10-5. That's...really controlling most of that match. I also never said Vito didn't end up winning it, I pointed out that as a Freshmen...Crookham beat Vito twice. That's it.
  18. They get ridden because they're not used to that level of Wrestling... but at least they have SOME exposure to it. They don't get ridden just because someone is 4 years older. As for his gut...yeah, that's gonna be a bit of a problem in Folkstyle for pretty obvious reasons. He's also Wrestling people who aren't trying to get away in Freestyle. So that's an enormous difference.
  19. KId, you replied 5 straight times! LOL...I'm just pointing out how you're so clearly lying. Ok, so after quoting me 4 times in a row, you come back with this? Jesus Christ...it's like you really do have some disability where you're unable to follow rationale thought. With your Cocker Spaniel like attention span, did you somehow miss Trump paused his MORONIC tariffs for 90 days? Then he started to go to different Countries and take credit for things that had...absolutely nothing to do with him like he just did in Qatar? His tariffs lasted less than 2.5 full trading days and we saw historic losses in the market over that time frame. So...yeah, I think it was playing out...pretty similar to the last time and even you...I'd have thought, would have known he STOPPED doing the thing I said caused the last Great Depression...and would have caused another. Did you see how much the GDP grew last quarter though Jimmy!
  20. Jimmy... ya said he didn't deny it. You're a moron. HE DID. How am I the one who looks stupid there? The oversight committee investigated this for 2 years. So...no, I responded to the right moron in THIS case as per usual, you're the one who posts 2-3 times at ones despite being the most ignorant. I rest my case. Also...your obsession with homosexual references on here is probably more about you than anyone else. You repressing something there...lil Jimmy? I mean, we're talking about a guy who... in your smooth brain version of events, never says, "I didn't sleep with her," which was never even alleged, but you still come up with "swallowell?" Sophomoric humor? Certainly possible given your level of intellect, but I also think it's covering up clear repressed homosexual desires. LOL...Little Jimmy, the G part of the LGT group...makes exponentially more sense now!
  21. Then there are posters who are just the Jesters and don't really care. That's Jimmy. He's the kid in 2nd grade that was so hyper, he annoyed OTHER 2nd graders. He's never really learned, never calmed TF down, doesn't have anything to add...ever, but has to add it.
  22. Yeah, the 'why doesn't Warren Buffett just pay more if he wants to,' is...yet another intellectually dishonest argument. The people talking about how much they care about the future of this Country are just...so clearly frauds. At what point do we care about the debt? When it's 2X the GDP(which contracted last quarter, Trump's first)? 3X? It used to be the debt shouldn't exceed 25%, then 50%, then 75%...now the total debt of the United States and it's people is 700% of the GDP. That's all debt held by the United States. I think our debt to GDP ratio...well, before the last GDP reading was in the 140% range while China was in the 80s. Big difference; China is at least building...MASSIVE infrastructure projects. We're just...giving it back to the uber wealthy. And I'm at the point where...I'm starting to not care. Cutting the corporate tax rate is going to really help the market and I've got enough in the market that I'll be fine, my kids will be fine and...I guess I'll stop worring about the rest. I will note, I did give a couple stock tips. QBTS, AVGO and...the obvious, NVDA. That was following Trump's moronic tax. QBTS is up to ~17 a share from 6 a share(and .76 cents a share just a year ago). AVGO up from ~145 to ~230 and NVDA from 87 back to 135...though most people FOMO'd into that one already.
  23. It's...so clear you don't know what you're talking about and you didn't actually watch the video. She WAS arrested, that's covered seconds into that video... You didn't...someone ELSE did and even then, you got literally every fact you cited here wrong other than she did have her hands behind her back as she was walking for a few steps. 1-3 years ago. So "it's recent" is...not accurate. 2-Again, seconds into the video they even reiterate she was arrested, so...you couldn't be bothered to watch this video(or just have a basic understanding of the topic you brought up.
  24. Ok...well...then you seem to agree with the House oversight committee. Again though, can I see your posts about all of the people who worked in the Trump administration or for the Trump Campaign who were being paid by foreign Governments and lying about it? I mean, I can't even FATHOM how outraged you are about the...well, the list I just gave you that you apparently ignored.
  25. Why don' Republicans have the balls to save our Country like they did under the likes of Eisenhower? Back when we were trying to repay the debt we'd built up after WWII and the Great Depression? Of course you can go back and look at who is responsible for adding to the debt and you find out VERY quickly the Republicans don't actually care.
