  1. wtf is this supposed to mean? i posted several things from prominent, renowned scientists. and your response is that i saw that on social media? there's a term for that - it's called genetic fallacy - or dismissing something not because of the veracity of information, but because of where it came from. except you take it one idiotic step further b/c the original source wasn't actually social media. conversely, who told you man made climate change is real? what material/s have you looked through to convince you it was indeed the case? or did you just listen to Al Gore and John Kerry? i'd love to know, considering there's a long line of the best climatologists who destroy the notion.
  2. i'm going to have a seizure.
  3. i do ncaa projections every week or so. imo they are much more sensible than any set of college rankings which goes off relatively arbitrary rules. https://rokfin.com/ranking/3491/2024-Crystal-Ball-Week-6
  4. Buchanan hasn't wrestled for a year. you don't move a 3x AA down for missing one match unless you have totally changed your methodology. why didn't Fix drop for missing CKLV? Brooks? i mean, i can follow the A->B->C logic, but i've never seen rankings done like that. and i can follow their rationale for Maida. it's not lost on me. but it's never been done like that in the history of sports or rankings. the guy literally fell 18 spots and didn't lose lol.
  5. good pull, Lu. Duane Goldman has to be up there. didn't he go 2, 2, 2, 1 ? so three at minimum.
  6. lol. i was overwhelmingly liberal. which makes me feel Great Disgust
  7. he literally is at odds with them at every turn. that's the entire effing point. like when your beloved dipshit party wanted him to help in that giant money laundering operation in ukraine. wtf are you even talking about?
  8. talk about a 'reach,' Vak. geesh. he's clearly half joking. drilling and closing the border aren't even dictatorial moves. but know what is? opening the border. TDS is real.
  9. and i remember a time that the government weren't so hellbent on controlling information. and a time when people listened to Rage Against the Machine instead of defended the machine.
  10. i'm pretty sure it was World Teamer Cody Pfau that was studying to be an undertaker.
  11. i mean, i was part of this. pyles was kind of a front runner for one of the positions. he was already freelancing a ton, including doing our college rankings. he did good work and we were familiar with him.
  12. That's an all time bad ranking. I'm thinking of starting a weekly segment where i discuss rankings moves I like and don't like. and that's not a knock on flo. i like some of their decisions, and i don't wholly agree with every Intermat decision (although it's considerably less frequent). maybe i could look at other sets and make a thing of it.
  13. 400k from the Chinese company in question to Hunter exactly 40k from Hunter to Joe that's not '10% for the Big Guy' ?
  14. same. it's one of my favorite things.
  15. i think Pyles is one of the best guys to call a match that we have in the sport. he really knows tendencies and arsenals - i.e. what to watch for. the pool is small, but there's not too many wrestling announcers that are better.
  16. well, we definitively know now what the 10% for the big guy was. not only was that phrase in an email, but the money (400k in hunter's and 40k in Joe's) were in their bank accounts. chalk up another conspiracy theory come true.
  17. Paper Tiger? WTF does that even mean? anyone who hasn't won a title is a paper tiger? 2x AA w/ lowest being 5th? every single loss of his career was to an All American. What in the sam hell are you talking about? He's lost two in-season matches in the last three + seasons. One to Keckeisen who he beat two weeks prior, and one to Hunter Bolen who he beat 4 times.
  18. my point, unlike the author of that tweet, was about the practice, not the administration it's under.
  19. congrats on your planet-saving virtue based on zero science. take a bow, sheep.
  20. i didn't write the article; Politico did. but if you want to continue believing this administration is anything close to functional, you do you. hell you've already taken all the boosters and believe the earth is coming to an end. keep going.
  21. Reporter: "Did Joe Call Hunter's 'business partners" Joe Biden: "Never" Hunter's Partner: "Yes. Often" Reporter: "What did they talk about" Hunter's Partner: "The weather" Democrats: "Well then. Case closed."
