Aj was a true freshman national champ. I don't get the famous for being famous thing. I just want to see him wrestle but he can't get his shit together.

We already tried this. It was awful because they didn't think through the rules and paid big names. We need the pit from karate combat. I've told several people. No one cares. And jiu jitsu just beat us to to it again. Embarrassing. Edit: the in cage wrestlin is on ufc fight pass and called wrestling underground. Amazing opening, stinker of an event and rule set.

Aspects of freestyle that are realistic to implement
forkemaz replied to 1032004's topic in College Wrestling
Greco-Roman is boring but from a sports and/or rules stand point it makes more logical sense and is better constructed that freestyle is by a country mile. Freestyle is bottom of the barrel rulesets for grappling in a conversation on game theory. -

I just showed you the time length is the same. But smart not to engage the fact of how unsatisfying criteria is too literally everyone in the world besides freestyle fans who have the worst taste in sports rules among any fan base. -

The pushout is a mess in freestyle already. Dudes not finishing shots because a push out is easier, the drop down fiasco. Everything you mentioned plus the amount of TDs scored because of current edge rules. You want less take downs in folkstyle? Add the push out. -

A wrestling duel which is the team version of our sport goes for an hour sometimes two which is about par for the team sports so there is that as. any other cute arguments to skirt the fact that people find neither ties nor criteria satisfying outside of the freestyle niche? -

Criteria is garbage and it's embarrassing people are endorsing it. A match is 7 minutes. We don't have time for a definitive answer? If Criteria is so great why don't they use it in the NFL MLB, NHL, NBA hmm? Cause it's garbage that's why. Just stop guys I mean really. Same for the other other two but I'm not going to write an essay. -
FRL would be good if they talked about wrestling.
forkemaz replied to Threadkilla's topic in College Wrestling
I complimented them in the post you quoted. There's a reason they get a lot of hate. Where there is smoke there is fire. In a recent baschamania lays out the issue with flo but he is talking about why they don't win media awards. It's a vote system and when you go around bullying, backstabbing and information throttling you don't win a lot of friends In the industry and apparently the fan base seems to have similar complaints. Fans cry about media. There is a an entire shtick that is just upsetting fans think Stephen A Smith -

And now if it's free you also can't criticize. Tell me, in your utopia where only praise is given is the currency lollipops? And I love that the flo ride or die defenders always insist no one on here could do better. It's simply not true. Unless you're saying we can't afford the camera angles and useless office space. Here's the real deal: people listen to the show because they love wrestling not because they love flo. There are things to appreciate about flo. Their consistent content is the number 1 reason. It's not because no one can do what they are doing. there are better podcasts, the ufc fight pass wrestling match broadcasts were high quality and more reliable. Flo has brand recognition and they show up to work. Good for them. That doesn't mean we all need to never say an ill word about them. -

"If you criticize flo you are a fat abusive loser". Sweet argument. I'll give you props though, that reads like the cynical Gen z version of a playboy article. And we all know Gen z loves to be miserable as much as former generations loved hot women taking their clothes off. You have real talent as a journalist in the year 2024 where the writer is meant to defend the establishment or corporation while brow beating the reader without addressing any bit of reality. You're great at it. -
Too fresh still. Check the handle. Their first match was wild too.
-
There is a high light of that match with horrible music available but better than that Flo posted JBs entire cklv run
-
I'm not sure what you are asking me. I agree with knowsnothing here. You said something was likely to never happen again and he gave you data showing that scenario is very often hanging in the balance and is basically a coin flip probability at the point the 7 seed is in the finals not accounting for the other wrestler in any way.
-
No room for hyperbole when you're dealing with knowsnothing. He brings the the goods with precision.

What are some of the best matches between two prominent double leggers? I do not have the wrestling memory or knowledge to answer the prompt myself. So I will just name some of the very easy to think of double leg guys. Jordan Burroughs Brandon Slay Aj Ferarri Nate Jackson? I've seen a double high light but am not super familiar
-
You can win ugly against anyone just like you can win big against anyone. What you're saying doesn't even make logic sense.
-
Shutting it down early and running away, getting called for stalling and then the over the top celebration. It was ugly. And I did not like it. I'm an ASU fan just like you but I'm not going to be served crap and say it tastes good. That's not what you want to see right before nationals. Richie has fallen a lot since his potential last year.
-
Ugly as hell win
-
Perfect breakdown of the useless video where Christian said absolutely nothing for 10ish minutes.
-
Wow you are right. That ruins my whole day lol. Welp the anticipation continues.
-
Didn't know I could and don't know how. Sorry.
-
It's match day. Who is winning? Carr looks to have the hotter hand right now and I'm going to pick him today and root for O Toole in march.
-
And Flo chooses not to share. It's all relative. They do not have to. But if it was on free TV and they pulled it off that's not a good look.
-
Like you said they expanded the market right? They didn't make enough? They preach all this grow wrestling and they don't share or play nice. They sued a former employee and tried to ruin his lively hood they're trashy business people, not good faith wrestling folks. And that's fine but let's ALL stop pretending.
-
It's almost like flo could have still let them have it free locally then right? But they didnt.
