What about college curriculums is "far left"? I was a wildlife major, so beyond gen eds, I took courses primarily in the sciences; biology, chemistry, wildlife management, genetics, statistics, etc. I know some on the right consider evolution, a round earth, and science in general to be "far left". But nothing in my courses would objectively fall under that designation. I had plenty of peers on the right and never heard any complaining. 

I can't speak to business, philosophy, journalism, etc. courses, and I can only relay my experiences from the two schools I got degrees from.

I think Republicans may be thrown off by the fact that some colleges are referred to as liberal arts schools. That doesn't mean what you think it means. 

i spent way too long in college. particularly in grad programs. 

it's a cess pool of wokeness, victimhood, and all kinds of pie in the sky jibberish. 

Let's talk about the atrocities in China and the fact that Apple (who uses sweat shops and benefits from horribly ecologic mining practices)

is helping the Chinese gov't w/ damage control and censoring of media. (This is the same company currently beefing w/ Twitter b/c 'free speech is bad).

And then let's consider that these tech companies, auto makers, the NBA, Nike - are all defenders of China and yet are the most virtue signaling wankers on earth.

discuss. 

are you guys suggesting that colleges don't have far left curriculum? 

It's a really great field. 

He's going to OU

Not sure if everyone is aware but I do a show once in a while (probably about once a week). Anyway, just passing along.

Here's this week's: CKLV Preview, ISU-Iowa, and Buchanan

Yes - Intermat for College Rankings; MatScouts for HS stuff. of course both will cross over often for content, but that's the plan for rankings. 

if you subscribe to Intermat on Rokfin, you get all the MatScouts stuff already.

Josh Lowe, who used to do the rankings for Intermat, still does the National Team Rankings (and all kinds of great info pieces to accompany them) for MatScouts

not from Luke himself but my hunch from being around him

OK State, PSU, Nebraska, Missou perhaps Michigan

tbh i didn't know ISU was in the mix

why is USC in and tOSU not.

USC lost to a 9-3 Utah team. tOSU has 1 loss - to undefeated Michigan - in a game they lead at halftime.

are we debating if killing people is wrong right now? is that what's happening? lol

ah yes. you're right. i forgot about that last year.

M* was walking wounded one year too (i think his SR year)

that being said, everyone is hurt in post season.

Nolf was. Cassar lost a year. Kerk was going through so stuff. etc. 

Tom Brands is a sharp dude. While they have seemingly experienced a rash of injuries, i don't think for one second that it's b/c of Tom's methods.  1) Tom's too smart for that and 2) think of the group w/ McDonough, Ramos, Metcalf, etc. none of them ever missed time and they were as just as much 'run through a wall' types as any of these guys. 

Actually let's take inventory or Iowa's injuries

1) Spencer (but he still won 3 so they didn't miss any points at all)

2) Murin wore an arm brace for a short period of time but he didn't experience any drop in ability 

3) Kemerer - could certainly argue his placements could have been higher - particularly the years he took 6th and 5th - but i also don't think it was shocking. 174 last year was crazy last year and he lost to CStarr when he was healthy.  

is that it? who am i missing? Nelson, i guess but he's kinda been in a platoon most of his career.

Yianni is a really great all around human being. among the most level headed wrestlers in the game imo. someone you'd want to hang out with regardless of wrestling.

As I mentioned earlier, putting someone to death costs many times more in taxpayer dollars, than does life in prison.

everyone says that. 

it doesn't have to. 

perhaps we should just shut down the boards until january.

here i was under the impression we wanted to talk wrestling.

apparently knownothing was too. silly us. 

that you listen to/like that npr woke drivel is the least surprising thing ever.

you're a cliche. 

1) i suggest you click on 'expand' on the quote

2) if you're talking about K-12 education it already is 'free' (although taxpayers foot the bill)

if you're talking about free college, then yes, it's extreme and stupid. even considering that $1 of my tax money attributed to you becoming the way you are has me puking up last night's cranberry sauce.

imagine being so enlightened that you come on a wrestling message board and suggest you not worry about talking wrestling for a few months.

genius. 

if you don't want to engage in wrestling talk until January, then shut up.

Education.

Pretty much fully agree, but also believe that it should either be free or greatly made cheaper.

Extreme and stupid. It's called socialism.

Environment.

Same view, plus easing into 100% renewables.

i don't disagree but, 'Easing in is not what this admin is doing.'

Govt. Spending.

Need much more of it and higher taxes on those paying single digits to pay for it.

Extreme and stupid. It's called socialism.

Gun Rights.

Full bans on public ownership of anything outside of shotguns and rifles for sport or hunting. 

Extreme

Immigration.

We need more people in the U.S. to solve worker shortages.  Massive overhaul to alliow more legal immigration and citizenship for those already here. 

Perhaps. but not the way the system is currently, which is broken and stupid (and probably indictable.)

Military.

Defund the poop out of it and put the funds where they are needed.

Extreme and stupid. It's called socialism.

Personal Responsibility.

Pretty much the same view, except I'm a full on social libertarian. 

One of the (unspoken/unaddressed) hallmarks of the current woke idiots like yourself is the absence or reduction in personal responsibility. name a topic, any topic - your class of idiots are removing the personal accountability aspect of it.

Govt. Regulatons.

They keep our society civil and functioning.  I'm ok with even more of it.

More gov't regulation. Yeah. That's not extreme. Go take your booster, nut bag. 

Death Penalty.

100% abolishment. 

Extreme, stupid, and waste to tax payers.

Taxes.

Need much more of it, done far more equitably to fund our society. 

Extreme and stupid. It's called socialism. Who the eff wants someone taking more of their money to do with it as they please?

Voting.

Even though I don't vote in any partisan elections,  I do like the national holiday idea.

Never should one person in America be denied the right to vote, including those with no  I.D. If ONE American can't vote,  that's criminal. 

Anyone that suggests that you should be able to vote without an ID is a full scale moron. 

that you think your positions on these things are tame is a giant problem.

unfortunately, there's a decent size percentage that are equally indoctrinated. 

lol. npr is god awful state media. literally. 

now do things that turned out to be true that weren't know to be true at the time and taken down.

you know how many doctors were banned from twitter for posting (even with empirical analysis) 'disinformation' regarding covid?

what about the hunter laptop story? 

i agree that there are more obvious situations of posting ridiculousness, but where does it start/stop? 

Ban Basketball: "All republicans are extremists"

Also Ban Basketball: "Here are my ideas, and they're all extreme"

did you not just say the funny stuff is coming from the new CEO?
