    so these $hitbirds have quarters matches on mats 3,5,6,7,8 simultaneously in a platform that lets you split between four mats and doesn't show the mat assignments.
  2. flyingcement
    This actually made me wonder if they were doing the repechage method where you have to monitor the results of the guy who defeated you

    When this tournament is complete, I'm cancelling BTN+ and never looking back

    Appreciate it Jon. Have you had any luck with mat assignments for the Salute? I have spent a lot of time navigating that weird bracket site, but I couldn't find it and wanted to make sure I didn't miss the Quarters.
  5. flyingcement
    Yeah it looks like it was not on the actual Soldier Salute website at all (which is strange to me). It does appear to exist on that bracket site you shared earlier. I have never heard of that site before so I have no familiarity. It also doesn't show (as far as I can tell) how each victory was achieved (points, pin, etc). And when I clicked on one of the videos to see if I could watch a replay, it said it would be available after the tournament at a price of $9,999 . So that website itself is a bit odd.

    No clue. They only list the times of the sessions, without saying what each session contains:

    What was frustrating to me was that once I finally found that mat assignments, I was hoping they would separate consolations on certain mats and 2nd round on other mats - this way you can stick with three or four mats through the round without having to jump around.

    thank you sir!
  9. flyingcement
    so this tournament is half over and we haven't seen any brackets yet?

    I lived in Ireland for a shorter period of time (six months) vs England (six years), but never saw any attitude that rejected alcohol like what we have here in the US. It could have been a matter of the circles we ran in or just the times we lived there.
  12. flyingcement
    Has anyone had any success finding mat assignments? I'm just blinding picking mats and hoping for the best
  13. flyingcement
    Where in Western Europe out of curiosity? Many of those countries do have issues that stem from alcohol, but its so culturally ingrained that it tends to be defended as an institution. Many of the people that came to the US for religious freedom when the country was being stolen from the native Americans were the weirdo types that were teetotalers .

    This is his fourth year as a student so he may be graduating. I'm not really sure.

    Looks like Gavin Hoffman to Lock Haven has been approved (?) since he has been added to their roster
  17. flyingcement
    He was originally included among Wisconsin's registered wrestlers. Since that time, Wisconsin seems to have removed their registered wrestlers on Track (unless it was a mistake). Some folks on the Wisconsin board mentioned that Amos is going to be wrestling unattached in Midlands while the rest of the Wisconsin squad does not attend.

    I was lucky enough to call Trenge a teammate my very first year of wrestling in 1992. This is one of his most famous matches. Here is an old highlight video:

    This isn't the same thing, but in a similar vein:

    Not a bad way to start life - a Stanford undergrad degree - a graduate degree from another school, a couple hundred thousand in the bank, and all American wrestler on your resume.
  21. flyingcement
    Few guys that are registered but have not wrestled this year: Braxton Amos Marc Anthony McGowan Ohio State has a selection of backups/redshirts: Davino, Kilkeary, Birden, Cannon, Bell, Gonzales
  22. flyingcement
    I was hoping we could see Crookham vs Byrd, but neither are registered for their respective team
  23. flyingcement
    Could be that absolutely. Could also be financial if he sees himself getting his Stanford degree with another year left of eligibility for the highest bidder. Could also be health related even if not a true medical redshirt. Saying weird reason from me was the wrong way of me phrasing it. I was noting that it was an unexpected outcome, but the reasoning may actually be sound.
  24. flyingcement
    It was Cardenas from Stanford in a 5-4 match. He got revenge in the consolation finals when Shapiro beat him 10-4 for third place. Cardenas is redshirting this year for some weird reason.

    They also chose to use Rokin, which is mostly home to crypto scammers and an extreme political fringe. Which is sort of beside the point because they flubbed important pieces of the broadcast on Days 1 and 2.
