A half a million people with substantial means have left cal. in the last two years for some reason.

Seems the portal and NIL are turning college sports into a version of fantasy pick-em.

Sometimes it’s hard to tell when you guys are kidding.

Is that guy getting his pick pocketed?

Tulsa has casinos.

Your choice.

If YES on 1, will starting wrestlers avoid attending tournaments? If YES on 2, how many wrestlers will be DQ’d in CHA? If YES on 3, will the oob area of the mat be enlarged and the uniform changed to sumo style? One change I’ve thought would help is adapting the freestyle rewarding of moves that are initiated inbounds, but finish oob.

The arena is downtown with limited walk-to accommodations. Probably built with shorter, garth brooks concert type events in mind. Most of Tulsa’s offerings are driving distance from there.

Yeah, maybe. Pins are contested on this here forum.

They’ll definitely test your endurance. Haven’t we all heard of “tunnel rats?”

Playing the clarionette, no doubt.

You sure about that?

Hendrickson didn’t enter the consolations till after the semifinals. He had two matches there and pinned both. He had one fall and two MDs in the champ div. He’s a bonus machine.

There’s already a push out rule - it’s called stalling.

Doggone your confusion, I had to look up who that was.

Especially since he was there to create it.

We’ll see. The NFL is pretty rigorous with their physical examinations, so he was determined to have had a healthy heart before his collapse. Are those same physicians now going to say he’s good to go, again? After what happened, I don’t see anyone in the NFL putting their name on the line to say they’ll take responsibility for allowing him back on the field. What I saw did not resemble commotio cortis, it was something else. Something they missed or that is undiagnosable. I hope Hamlin lives a long and happy life, but I don’t believe he’ll be playing NFL football again.

Same response. If that’s the best you can do, then that’s the best you can do.

Well, if that’s the best you can do, that’s the best you can do.

It’s not that there was a lot that wasn’t known about covid, a lot was known about respiratory viruses, and how they act. The WHO plans that Theo alludes to specifies that lockdowns are not to be imposed because they have been tried before and only made things worse. It’s also well known among epidemiologists that you can’t vaccinate your way out of a pandemic. For some reason, governments worldwide stood this knowledge on its head for this debacle. The fact that U.S. dollars paid to design and create this virus, and China’s responsibility for spreading it, may hold the answer for why. The “vaccine” didn’t keep you catching the virus, it didn’t keep you from spreading the virus, there is some evidence that it diminished the severity of symptoms if infection fell within a small window post injection, at the risk of a compromised immune system. And the virus did what viruses do, it mutated to a point where it is still dangerous to some, but not many. Kinda like the flu. Which brings us full circle, because the very similar attempts at controlling a virus in about 1916 taught doctors what worked and what didn’t. But the ones associated with government tried to force something else on us for this one. My wife’s 75 y/o sister has had covid three times, once prior to being vaccinated and twice after, is still active. Their oldest sister, who was somewhat compromised, died. Our next door neighbor, a 66 y/o nurse who refused to be vaccinated, has had it twice and is fine. I saw a 20 something elite NFL athlete die on live tv. They say he died twice and was brought back, he’s still having trouble. He won’t play in the NFL again. That’s another one of those things people don’t talk about in mixed company.

Don’t be giving them ideas.

Could bee, could bee.
