  1. It's seriously unlikely that a brake inspection would have shown a failing bearing.
  2. The clean up should have been to remove all contaminated soil.
  3. I like the side bite for when you're trying to get flat and roll a lock.
  4. As long as they still make the aggressors
  5. OMG I know all about government regulations, holy cow. I totally live my life around them. Although I'm not aware of the regulation around starting a toxic chemical fire. Maybe you could educate me on that?
  6. https://www.ncaa.com/news/wrestling/article/2023-02-13/austin-oconnor-surges-top-157-pounds-latest-college-wrestling-power-rankings
  7. Is AOC undefeated? Odd that he would get moved to #1 without Robb losing. Not that I think he isn't worthy of the spot, just weird that he he got it without beating #1 or the #1 guy losing.
  8. Thanks for bringing so much to the discussion. Real impressive.
  9. Also what Trump Era deregulation said to burn everything after the wreck?
  10. Well apparently my opinion was more valid than you give credit for because they shot down 2 more object without waiting for them the cross the country.
  11. It was full of methane. Numerous reports say this.
  12. Incompetence is what caused it. The quality of employees in a unaccountable union environment is what did thus.
  13. Every time you can't refute an argument, you attempt to discredit the source but succeed in discrediting yourself. He is a Pulitzer Prize winner. I'll bet you didn't discredit him when he exposed Adu Graib prison scandal. He is a well connected experienced investigative reporter. He certainly isn't a crazed right wing conspiracy theorist.
  14. Greco hand fighting is the world's most brutal chess match. If you don't understand chess it's not entertaining.
  15. https://nypost.com/2023/02/08/seymour-hersh-claims-us-navy-behind-nord-stream-2-pipeline-explosion/ Between the pipe line and the fire set in Ohio I think we can all agree that Biden is the world's biggest environmental terrorist.
  16. Getting rid of SSI doesn't have to mean doing nothing, the same 15% can be invested without the government having control over it but still requiring it be set aside. The worker doesn't get it and neither does the government. It would be put into safe, insured investments, or private insurance.
  17. Listening to experts on covid and nutrition will help you understand just how little expertise the experts have. It should also help you understand the bias in science.
  18. When the first group of wrestlers entered MMA you had guys like Royce Alger, Kevin Jackson, Chiapparelli, all successful on the mat in FS but not in the ring. Then you had Lindland, Couture, Henderson, Chael, who all had long term success. I view this from the perspective of the Era where MMA still hadn't developed into it's own sport and primarily was a contest of styles.
  19. WTF, they literally said they weren't ruling out aliens.
  20. Your ability to link 3/10, ability to twist data 9/10. My point with Rutt is that he was a greco guy and he was competitive with the top guys If not for injuries. Deitchler you dismissed as being inferior as a college wrestler, base on success. I maintain he was a legitimate top dog based on his actual matches. His match against Dake was amazing. I also note that the style itself is brutal which I think goes hand in hand with it being a style that requires a significant amount of toughness not always required in the other styles. I also noted the greater success of Greco in the UFC as a counter to you linking it to Folkstyle and what you perceive as it's lack of success. Probably the biggest reason the Greco style isn't more successful in Folkstyle is because refs allow guys to block and back up when they give up dominant ties against a greco guys.
  21. Rutt was plagued with concussion, he very much was a top guy. In his match against Heflin he knocked himself out throwing him. Also do you remember how Dake did in his match against the Armenian in Greco. You'd think the superior wrestler could have scrounged up 1 point. Every argument you have as to why greco is the easiest of the 3 styles can be used to show why FS is is easier. I have a friend who TF the world Silver medalist in FS and was 4th in the world in Greco the next year. Your assertion that greco is all the lower tier wrestlers is just false.
  22. On this topic, not out of everyone on earth. Arguments of authority carry no weight.
  23. So why don't those superior wrestlers wind down their careers with an easy run in greco. Rutt was plague by concussion, that ended his career. Jake vs Dake is a match you should watch before you dismiss his folk skills. If I remember right Smith won international freestyle tournaments before he won an NCAA title. You will also notice MMA has shown greco to be the most effective style.
