  1. If you have a Rokfin account, watch PSU vs Cornell from 2021 at the collegiate duals. Brooks wrestled Loew; the length of Loew was not exactly a problem for Brooks. Loew AAd in 21-22 and Brooks beat him 15-3. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. “Show me a good loser and I will show you a loser.” Go watch Brooks lose to Coleman. Particularly the bit after the final whistle. Then watch his NCAA tournament. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. I’d hope that’s for both of them, combined. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. So, the theoretical Ferrari transfer outweighs Cael, Taylor, Dake, Snyder and Varner? Is this Bob Nicolls? Only Slumlord Supreme would believe something so batshit crazy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. You’re betting 200 PC that Koll is doing … what? Do we have any evidence that Koll did anything at all? Someone see him the airport? See him at OU? Anything beyond what Minnow claims? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. If you’re Bernie Truax, would you rather practice with Brands and Assad, or Starocci, Brooks, Taylor, Dake and Nickal?
  7. Truax won’t go to Iowa if he actually wants to win an NCAA title. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Retirees with massively overvalued homes, who saw the writing on the wall re: inflation/housing market and cashed in while they could? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. All that considered, no one in their right mind would leave Stanford for Oklahoma. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I read some other perspectives on it. It’s massive overreach, and a violation of privacy laws. It’s likely illegal. But, it does NOT require, per the language of the bill, actual physical examinations, because it’s so vague. The bill’s author has said that she envisions this determination to happen in a sports physical, but that’s not in the bill (law). So, it’s not as bad as I originally thought.

  12. I did. Tell me what you think I missed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Instead of talking about these imaginary scenarios that are in no way backed up with proof (I.e., legislation), let’s talk about actual batshit crazy behavior by an elected body. Today, the GOP-controlled Kansas legislature just passed a bill that will require girls in the state to have a physical to prove that they are not transgender. Specifically, they will have to have genital examinations to prove that they are not transgender. https://www.newsweek.com/kansas-republicans-pass-bill-genital-examinations-schoolchildren-students-transgender-1792954?amp=1 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. That's the example of two guys who would stall a modern guy like Aaron Brooks out of a match? Seriously? A modern 184 like Brooks isn't getting into a scramble with those guys. He's just taking them down, repeatedly. If the video had no title and no names/scoring graphic, and you told me that was a high school match in 2020-2023, I would believe you.
  15. Who? Hard to keep track of recruiting classes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Those old dudes would get smoked by PSU upper weights. Just technically superior in every aspect of wrestling. I mean, maybe they wouldn’t be breathing as hard as some others when getting picked apart by Taylor or Ruth but smashed all the same. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. An acquaintance of mine was in the pool for that selection. She’s a former (due to new occupation) pro cyclist with a PhD in biological engineering. Her boyfriend/partner is the first man to ever go below 4 minutes in the individual 4000m pursuit. Whenever I read the resume of the average astronaut I am reminded of how utterly amazing some people are; these people are literally the best of us. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. NLWC traditionally registers near the registration deadline. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Ramos and Clark. Crap. Point still stands. Iowa is hardly blowing Penn State out of the water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Is that actually true, though? If you look at the last ten years, Penn State has 5 national championships at 125, 133 and 141. Iowa has 3 at those weights (all Spencer). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Using a flow rate calculator, it’s moving at 3.3 feet per second. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  22. The water is moving through pretty quickly. I’d guess 2-3ft per second. The tubing is 1”/25mm ID and it’s putting out 500 gallons per hour through that tubing. The UV unit itself is 26” long, and I think the bulb itself is 23”. It’s pretty common for a UV filter to kill off a “green water” outbreak (water so full of algae you can’t see through 1’ of it) in a day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Maybe (gasp) he already had the infection before he set foot on a mat at NCAAs? Or, alternatively, he contracted his infection through skin to skin contact? The assumption that he contracted it from failed UV cleaning of the mat is kind of crazy. Also, to the crowd: UV doesn’t kill bacteria, viruses, etc. Anyone with a clue would know that. It works by damaging the DNA/RNA of the bacteria/virus and preventing it from reproducing. It’s regularly used in aquaculture to eliminate disease in fish production operations. I have a 36w UV sterilizer in my 140 gallon aquarium’s filter action system. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. So, a 125lb guy who had a night before weigh-in would have the same physical ability as that same guy, who made 125 an hour before he had to wrestle? The science of exercise physiology would suggest you are very much wrong. A guy who weighs 135 and sweats off 10lbs to make 125 is going to perform completely differently on a night before weigh in (and can use IVs) vs that same guy doing the same thing with only an hour to rehydrate. It’s a pretty widely studied topic in physiology and it’s kind of crazy that you believe that. Guys from the 80s/90s would most likely have to go up two whole modern weights to not get their teeth kicked in. Here’s an excerpt from a paper written by a coach of some of the world’s best cyclists: “Fatigue toward the end of a prolonged sporting event may result as much from dehydration as from fuel substrate depletion. Exercise performance is impaired when an individual is dehydrated by as little as 2% of body weight. Losses in excess of 5% of body weight can decrease the capacity for work by about 30% (Armstrong et al. 1985; Craig and Cummings 1966; Maughan 1991; Sawka and Pandolf 1990).” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Most of them would fall over dead making weight and then wrestling on a 1-hr weigh in. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
