Stay classy San Diego. Calling people stupid during the holidays is always cool.

Wait. If you make the majority of scoring simply higher values. People score more points.? Who knew? Ha. I saw someone on fb raving how Mekhi had never had double digit points put up against him Now I think he was definitely dominated but c* got 2 td + a 4 pt near fall (And a stall I think) That’s 3 extra points…. Almost a 30% delta it’s been like two weeks. Can we not make more rule changes until we figure out if it is even a good idea to change the td to 3 points??? also just call stalling. And stop changing rules to hope it stops people from stalling (it won’t…. Humans get tired). It’s hard enough to compare eras already……..

Hopefully this thread helps with this. Doesn’t seem there are a ton of 4x AA multi time finalize / champs for a reason. When people say things like …. So and so stinks he is barely a r12 guy…. Or is only 2-8 in the big 10 or whatever. It’s pretty sad sometimes. It’s like we eat our own sometimes. I say sometimes to much.

In high school (Illinois 2a the big division at the time) I was defensive on my feet. Had ok shots but was better at position and go behinds. Good positional / hand fighting etc. I was tall / lanky and used that to my advantage. Could defend from most I came across in the state etc. I was a good pinner / rider. Had a good leg ride and cradle series. Could turn almost anyone except some of the better kids. I didn’t realize then but I was below average on bottom. I don’t recall getting pinned but I do recall getting ridden a full period quit a bit. in college. Well everyone had good position and could hand fight. And the average to above average we’re taking me down quite a bit. The AAs / national champs in the room at will. Not to bad but defo not high school. Also kids in college can get out from bottom so my riding skills didn’t really translate as I thought they would. Not getting out from bottom was now really exposed. The better kids punished this tremendously. If not for back points but brutally kicking your butt for a period takes its toll on your head kneck arms shoulders etc. I know that now when they hurt when I sleep lol… that or I’m getting old. Also. Not dominating like 70-80% of matches was very new….. I didn’t like that very much lol. I prolly cut to much weight as I tended to have to work more on that than getting out from bottom or developing better offensive capabilities on my feet. When your coaches tell you to work on xyz when your young. Work on it. Kids think but I won?!?!!!?? Or I’m winning!?!!?! Or I placed at state.!?!?!!?! That doesn’t matter. they know what you need to work on. Leave the hubris at the door. No need for that.

Wrestled d3 for 3 years until I got hurt. Doctor said if I want to be able bodied later in life it was time to retire. I was 0.500 spot starting for a top 10 team nationally. Was never a threat to AA or anything like that. Someone made this joke earlier so I’ll steal it as it was good ….. best thing I never want to do again. this was the late 90s and the weight cutting was brutal. Hopefully they don’t cut like that any more. I don’t let my son cut weight. I help coach the local kids team.

I thought minnow or someone announced Spencer Lee attending? Is that bs? I’ll try and find the post

Just call stalling yes. Humans stall when they have a lead and they are tired. Or when they are just tired. 3 point takedowns will make that worse imo. wkn maybe a question for you. Did 4 point near falls lead to a meaningful deviation in the number of pins ? It certainly doesn’t feel that way…. And certainly didn’t get rid of staling by incentivizing pinfalls. please stop changing the rules every darn year.

I think this case has already been tried on rescue me.

I read somewhere Jordan Burroughs is going 74 kg

Break out the BRIO or crystal reporting.

Sounds like psu shouldn’t be so dependent in the transfer portal.

Not unreasonable mac getting a major. Osu went into ncaa the 10 or 11 seed I think. Mac majored the 8 seed in the quarters. At least I think it was the quarters.

The brothers? Not far enough. All family should be banned from carver. Take their names out of the program. Send them to jail maybe. Stop showing brands father in all documentaries or that farmer that was helpful to them when they were young. I think gable may be implicated next as he coached the brands brothers. Take his statue down while we’re at it as stalling isn’t called anymore anyhow.

You can literally cheat. Steroids. Lie about it and not miss as much. on the other hand. Folks like to bring up this behavior (gambling) may cause you do do bad things down the road if you get stuck. So a situation where literal cheating is a lesser slap on the wrist so you can potentially stop potential cheating down the road is a more severe penalty. Does not seem to be fair. Yes It is a rule. I’ll bet they knew that as well. There should be a penalty. But it shouldn’t be this severe.

There are two bronze medalists. And y’all looking for normalcy

867 5309 occurs at position 9,202,591 in the first 10 million digits of pi.

As opposed to lying about something like……….. steroids? Don’t you usually get sentencing consideration criminally for pleading guilty?

Now this looks like a crowd. (An actual good one) https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8joWRt8/

NCAAs is hugely attended. Carver psu Ohio state dials are hugely attended. Illinois state tournament is highly attended. Ikwf state is highly attended. world championship attendance? Fargo? Final x ? Wtt? Us open? I don’t think that argument holds water when there seems to be more evidence fans like folkstyle. The argument that we are not as prepared for free has been debunked with the performance over the last 10+ years or so as well. I bet distinct click analytics on a site like flo for various competitions it sponsors would be interesting here. For the record. I liked competitions in freestyle. What I don’t like is the free world trying to turn folkstyle into freestyle.

I don’t hate freestyle. For the record. I hate turning a much more popular folkstyle product domestically into one that is inherently less popular. Bending the rules in folkstyle into something more freestyle over time (imo) will make the sport less popular. We say things like We should change ncaa to free or more like free. …… to make sure we’re more prepared / better on the world stage. We’re enjoying the best / most competitive us teams maybe ever and over a 5/10 year period if not longer. to grow the sport? Into what? An barely attended world championships. For what? Find pics from Fargo. Wtt. And even final x….. are highlights from this on ESPN? Are NCAAs on ESPN? Does ESPN even mention this in their daily highlights?

How is attendance at the world finals?

To lazy to look. But there were comments earlier that in college dake was always super boring/defensive? His ncaa tournaments: 4-1, fall, 11-0, 3-2 tb, 7-3, 9-0, 8-0, 3-0, 4-0, 8-1, fall, pinfall, pinfalls, 4-0, 4-1, 3-0, 11-0, 13-0, 2-0, 5-4. 4 falls. 5 majors. Out of 17 matches. At least 10 shutouts. That’s crazy. 9 points scored against …. Although the score in the falls I don’t know. Pretty amazing.

Ok. I do see on Wikipedia he took one in 19-'20 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vito_Arujau#:~:text=All-American honors.-,2019-21,all winter sports that season.

I thought I saw on twitter that Vito was taking an oly redshirt? Did I imagine this in my head ?

Imagine. It’s thanksgiving. Bb made a meal for the family…. one of the kids says the turkey is dry. Or one of the cousins says the gravy is salty. Or a relative married a republican.
