  1. It’s kind of wild how you trivialize the deaths of children, and the subsequent demonization of their parents by the person in question. The piece of shit you’re referencing was sued, found liable, and then moved his assets around in order to minimize any financial liability. He made hundreds of millions of dollars spreading lies he knew to be lies, and then turned turtle like the whiny little shit he is when it came time to pay the piper.

  2. The Swiderski to 157 thing never made sense to me. He’d be a very short 157. Give up a lot of reach. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Because red states generally have significantly higher poverty rates, significantly lower educational attainment, lower opportunity and resultant higher murder, SA and violent crime rates. Also, you’re a fan of painting with broad strokes. You keep using the word “all”, when it’s painfully clear that, if you read jross’s article, many “progressive” cities have murder rates well below the national average (LA, NYC, and SF for starters). If progressive policies were truly responsible for high murder rates, SF would top the charts. But it’s not even close to the national average, at 2.6 per 100,000 vs 7.8 nationally.

  4. The authors of that article conveniently ignore the fact that violence is closely tied to poverty and education. And, as it turns out, state policies in red states result in greater poverty and thus, greater overall murder rates. It’s also hilarious that they list NYC and Alvin Bragg as a “Soros funded prosecutor” as if NYC has a murder problem. Per the chart that they provided, NYC is sitting at 2.2 per 100,000, which is about a quarter of the national average. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Now do states. Helpful hint: The murder rate is higher in red states. The top 3 and 7 of the top 10 voted strongly R in 2020. Unfortunately, this is not an R vs. D issue. It’s most strongly correlated to poverty, which knows no political affiliation. After that, education, which is perhaps why a city like Boston has such a low murder rate. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/homicide_mortality/homicide.htm Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. Let’s perhaps start with Kushner’s access to SAP information that he had absolutely no need-to-know. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  7. I’m not sure what his justification would be other than, “Some other people got an extra year.” The guy got four seasons. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. It’s great that they feel reassured, I suppose? Personally, I’d prefer to use actual crime statistics rather than the word of stranger, but that’s just my opinion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Unfortunately, even if you remove urban areas from red states, they still have higher murder, SA, and other violent crime rates than blue states. Meaning, non-urban, red-leaning areas drive the violent crime rate up. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. McHenry would be an NCAA champ at 118 under the current weigh-in rules. He’s a kid who walks around at 125 wrestling guys who weigh 10+ lbs more than him. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. Poor, rural, bright red areas. At least, according to the last several decades of FBI crime statistics. States with lowest violent crime rate: New York, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont. States with highest violent crime rate: Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Tennessee and Alaska.

  12. It’s carried in water droplets when you cough, which are very much large enough to be stopped by a mask. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Gabe Arnold can back up his words against Starocci in the dual. Perfect. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Cornella is 5-8 against common opponents, whereas Bartlett is 12-0. I don’t think Cornella would score an offensive point on that match. I could see Brooks putting an MD on Cardenas, too. That said, good picks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. The interesting thing is that WS has Nebraska predicted to beat them at 141, 149 AND 184. I could see Pinto trying to YOLO-throw Truax but I think Truax gets him 9 out of 10 or more. Pinto has some pretty bad losses whereas Truax is 1-1 against the returning finalist at the weigh. Also, isn’t Pinto rumored to be dropping to 174? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Penn State, assuming everyone goes, will have a particularly stacked team this year. 8 of their 10 starters will start the year ranked in the top 3, with 125 and, ahem, 165 being the exceptions. On WrestleStat, for example, they are predicted to lose no more than 3 matches to any one team, mostly at 125 and 165. There are a good number of very good teams predicted to score 3 or 0 points against them. So, which two teams do you think could combine to beat them, with their best 10 against the best of Penn State? A good one that I saw someone else post was Nebraska + VT. They might get four, maybe even five but PSU picks up bonus to win. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Lachlan McNeil would have to be certified, batshit crazy to transfer from UNC to OSU. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. He has never competed at U23s, and he skipped at least one year of HS wrestling to joint Yianni at Spartan Combat/Cornell. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I tried to describe her technique to someone as Greco and Judo with Freestyle reattacks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Terrible news. Hope he makes a full and speedy recovery. All the PSU board guys say he’s a great young man who is very kind to kids at clinics and camps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    UNC

    Taylor has already coached a couple kids that have impressive results: U17 silver with Kasak, U17 bronze with Ryder, and Haines took 2nd at NCAAs as a barely 18 year old true freshman. Dake coached Yianni to one degree or another. JB was at Nebraska off and on. In terms of hanging it up, JB, Taylor, Dake. I don’t think Taylor leaves Penn State short of basketball/football coach type money. He’s got too much invested in State College. M2, his wife’s juice bar, and I know he just bought another building. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. That lineup will blank a good number of top 10 teams. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    UNC

    Correct. If he didn’t take the Michigan job, as rumored, he’s not going to UNC. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  25. Jordan Burroughs took 3rd at 149 before moving up to 157 and winning. Retherford took 5th at 141 before taking a RS, bumping up to 149 and killing everyone for three years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
