  1. Thanks - I was thinking that myself but after a couple of recent conversations here on the board, it seems many folks only know how to be tough on the mat. Whether an old fashioned beating, or some other creative way of screwing these guys over. It's just not right. Let's stand up for ourselves and our kids.
  2. @1032004 @pokemonster Re: shorts and shirts, I have young kids and both have been given shorts and tshirt (nice asics ones) which are their uniform. no singlets. I am relieved.
  3. Sorry I replied to Ionel erroneously (I'm sure he deserved it ) but we basically said the same thing at the same time
  4. For me it comes down to what is more forgivable? Uncontrollable narcissism or recklessness by a person with autism? I would say the latter every single time.
  5. I agree with you - he seems like a nice kid. But I said perceived as bad eggs, because I think that was accurate
  6. I think yes - they have had success in the past investing in people perceived as bad eggs like Desanto. Brands are not high character guys, but higher than the Ferraris. And plus, I said the best thing they can do - meaning - it would be a way to move forward as positively as possible whether it was true or not. For leaders that is often what must be done
  7. Best thing the Brands can do is move forward and say: our starters are Caleb Rathjen and Zach Glazier - who proved themselves on the mat, and through unnecessary adversity brought upon by people who are below the level of our program
  8. This is new to me - and I am just relaying the allegations from falling down the rabbit hole of posts on twitter since Allyson Schwab was brave enough to start the conversation. But I hadn't even considered the sounds aspect. I was thinking about the singlet aspect. I am admittedly naive, but I do have two people very close to me whose lives were destroyed by sexual predators and my heart has always been lit with a vengeful fire since knowing
  9. The allegations are not that it is an outright porn site. But that it is a hotspot for those who are interested in seeing high level detail of such things, even if they don't know anything about the sport of wrestling itself. This has resulted in an unusually high number of views for these videos, several levels of magnitude higher than the comparable video which is not filmed in the same way
  10. handful of folks in Iowa City have spent the evening researching whether they can reclaim the NIL money
  11. Funny Big Ten Plus doesn't show that. Little do they know they're sitting on a cinematic masterpiece
  12. I think even if that is the overall truth - there is some truth to what you were saying. If this was a different guy in the same situation - even a fellow Italian who may be more mild mannered like say old boy Mickey Phillippi - doubt he would have been tossed to the point of losing the title after winning the match. There is a reputation tax and I enjoy watching when the collector comes around
  13. Rathjen and Glazier are now two of my all time favorites
  14. I'm so happy for Glazier. I also tip my hat to the officials for having the balls to do the right thing
  15. Let's go Glazier!
  16. Stanich takes it in Rideouts! Excellent sportsmanship exhibited by Griffin who raises up Stanichs arm in victory after the match. They must know each other?
  17. typically I would since he's the underdog and original commit, but I've always liked Caliendo
  18. There was a gruesome arm injury in the womens third place match of 109 lbs. It made me nauseous and she was screaming in pain
  19. Just him and Eischens (fresh in from Stanford on the Koll express)
  20. We need practitioners of the law to focus on spirit of the law and use some human judgment. On the other hand, promotion of blind, letter-of-the-law rule following seems like something that would sow the seeds of anarchy. If the law can be proven to be more reasonable, anarchy is unnecessary
