PSU Best Ever vs Iowa Best Ever - who wins?
Le duke replied to Zahnarzt's topic in College Wrestling
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. -

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 -
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

Ramos and Clark. Crap. Point still stands. Iowa is hardly blowing Penn State out of the water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

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 -
Using a flow rate calculator, it’s moving at 3.3 feet per second. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

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

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

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 -

Most of them would fall over dead making weight and then wrestling on a 1-hr weigh in. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

Just imagine the absolute pistol whipping an 80s or early 90s, night-before 125 or 133 would get at the hands of a Cael at PSU-era, 1-hr weigh-in 125 or 133. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

This is what I’m hearing: Person A: Beats the shit out of Cop A Cop B: Fears for his/her life, decides not to intervene with violent mob. Random internet dude: Person A is innocent of beating up Cop A because Cop B didn’t do anything! This is insane. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If it was a Brady violation, he would still be in jail pending a new trial. They don’t just open up a jail cell and release you when your lawyer claims something. He also wouldn’t have been released to a halfway house if he had been found not guilty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So it’s not exculpatory evidence, though, because that would have to be filed with a court, a new trial would have to be conducted, etc. All of which would be public record. Sorry, I don’t believe you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

By sorted out, do you mean, “The state of Florida will abide by the terms of the legal agreement they entered into.”? They don’t get to tear up a legal agreement simply because they don’t like it. Disney even had public hearing notice and comment meetings. Florida simply failed to notice. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -
He was released because prisons are overcrowded and he’d served enough of his sentence. He did not successfully appeal his conviction, or any other legal avenue to be found not guilty. He was simply released because, as his lawyer clearly said, BOP math. Only murderers and rapists, if that, serve a full sentence. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
