  1. there were people jailed for merely being there. little old ladies and *I poop my pants, don't laugh at me*. some of the cases were definitely ridiculous.
  2. that's part of my problem/confusion. why does sex/sexuality rule or attention or consciousness to the degree it does? i understand that there's an innate draw to what humans find sexual. but damn, it appears that a significant portion of the world's population cannot and will not control itself. it's bizarre to me. they know it's wrong, they know the victims will be scarred for life, and they can't help themselves. it might be the one most pervasive act of selfishness on earth. it's almost like they are uncontrollable. at least they used to know they'd go to prison. but it in light of recent events, for some reason, governments around the world aren't much interested in holding them accountable. it's difficult to not be misanthropic about this.
  3. the left is re tard ed
  4. i love you too, Rasta.
  5. has nothing to do with their norms. you're the one that constantly posts borderline racist *I poop my pants, don't laugh at me* (without realizing it) what i scoff at is the concept that the concerns on the res as a reason why there should be mass fraud in detroit. it's fixable. your party don't want it fixed so they make stuff up.
  6. you're one second away from being banned. that's your warning. it's utterly stupid to connect the two, and utterly disgusting to insinuate. and why? because you're protecting people that enable the rape of children. anyway. that's your warning, scumbag. test it.
  7. gimme a effing break. they can figure out the reservation stuff. or they can not vote. this *I poop my pants, don't laugh at me* is ridiculous.
  8. Lucas Davison - another one that spent multiple years at 197 before becoming a top 5 hwt. there is WAY more data that says you can effectively move from 197 to HWT and be great than there is to suggest small heavyweights struggle. again, you're trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist.
  9. i don't think you addressed your assignment, which was to show why/how Warner would have won NCAA's if the weight were higher. if you can, your next assignment is to make the case for several more people.
  10. ok, that's one guy. and i would disagree with it. what's the evidence of it. you're arguing that a 5x AA would have placed higher once? he actually made a final. weighed in in the morning. JR Year - Lost to perhaps the smallest 197lb champ EVER 8 hours AFTER weigh ins - Max Dean. SR Year beat Silas Allred on RT. Silas is now a 184lber. Weight class was won by Aaron Brooks who started out as a 184lber. SO Year lost to Myles Amine started as a 174 and only wrestled 197 to keep size on for the OLY. FR Year lost to Shakur Rasheed who started out as a 165lber. Weight / Size had nothing to do with him winning or losing.
  11. the number of college wrestlers who make Senior World teams is almost nil. not to mention 98% don't turn around and make an international weight for months. there's zero reason to suggest aligning collegiate weights with international solves anything.
  12. there's one reason and one reason only - to obfuscate the results. to effin cheat. any other suggested reason is asinine and makes you look like a shill. so don't even.
  13. after testimony in the .... (idk british politics well)....House of Lords i think it's called outlined several stories and statistics of young girls being raped (a plague, and nothing is done about it) it's long overdue for a conversation. not a political one (it happens on both sides), not a racial/ethnic one (every faction is guilty) but a human one. in every corner of the world this stuff goes on. and it's becoming increasingly clear governments (everywhere) cover it up or at least aren't acting on it enough. my question is - why is humanity so hell bent on sexualizing minors (i think humanity has a sex problem in general fwiw) and 2) wtf is going on with institutions around the world?
  14. i get that. but the two circuits (World / NCAA) are not the same. that talent pool is just not there.
  15. if you weigh 215 you can make 205 after 1 practice. if you weigh 225 you can put on good weight and have zero excuse at HWT. we're back to the issue of people acting like all hwts weigh 285 except the tweeners. i'd like to get the weigh in sheets for the final day of NCAA's the last decade or so for the HWT finalists. i'd put money of their average weight being around 245 ish. Snyder, Cassar, Gable, Paris, Hendrickson...all 'small' hell, Derek White had a completely uninteresting career at 197 then all of a sudden became a Top 2 guy at HWT. Zabriskie won a title and he was small as hell. he, White, Cassar....all three former 197's the weight is atrociously thin. and despite 197 being relatively deep currently, it's historically been very thin. there's no depth, guys. y'all are trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. you're suggesting rule changes based off a few anecdotes. name me ONE guy....one guy...that didn't make his mark solely because he was in between 197 and HWT.
  16. 125 133 141 149 157 165 175 190 205 285 any takers?
  17. we need better democrats here.
  18. oh, ffs, stop with the college Sophomore sociology babble. anecdotes don't make true a problem at scale. define 'elite'. where's the study that say elite wrestling prospects choose football over wrestling because weight class is an issue at anything close to a significant rate. can you name a single one? name an 'elite' high school wrestler that went DI football for the primary reason of weight class. real for whom? a handful of prospects over the last decade i can do the same thing in inverse. Recent World Teamers that Wrestled 106 57kg - Spencer Lee, Gilman 61kg - Daton Fix, Vito 65kg - Yianni, Stieber, JO 70kg - Zain 74 - Dake 79 - Dake 86 - David Taylor 92 - Zahid Valencia 97 - ? 125 - Zillmer who cares there is no 'problem'. not at scale, anyway. this is much ado about nothing. i don't here anyone crying about perennial World Teamer James Green being an obvious tweener at 65-74 in olympic years. how many weight class shifts are you going to entertain for the sake of a few outliers? should we re-wrestle NCAA's with a 170lb class b/c Dean Hamiti was struggling with 165? here's the # of DI Wrestlers by weight participated at this year...
  19. Semi's Picks? TEX vs. TOSU ND vs. PSU Vs. The Spread Texas +8 tOSU ND - 1 PSU
  20. he was defenseless and it was helmet to helmet. i'm not big on the targeting rule (and disagree with the call 8/10 times) but if this aint targeting, what is?
  21. they just said on the news that his (estranged) wife had to limit their kids' visits with him b/c he started acting funny.
  22. wtf are you talking about? the 106's that lose two matches from placing are vastly more skilled than half the (upperclassmen) placers from 170-285. say you don't know ball without saying it.
  23. 190/195, 215/220 and 285 in high school effing suck. i mean, it's terrible. but go off about how Braxton Amos and Kyle Snyder and Christian Carroll are tweeners.
