Do yourself, and the sport of wrestling in this country, a big favor: block that douchebag. He is the wick to the TNT of everything you wrote, and a detriment to the idea of support wrestling.

They didn’t follow a repechage process, at least not the one that is in the book.

People don’t like it, but it’s the right call. There’s nothing that says time left on the clock has anything to do with avoiding wrestling. There’s nothing that says there has to be a duration of time between the last caution. He was absolutely avoiding wrestling. He was absolutely warned before they started dinging points. Very similar to the scenario that led to the Mongolian Strip Tease

I felt like from the beginning, the decision to not award the medal is pure and simple in the book. It’s a DQ from the tournament and DQ’s from the tournament results are erased. What I felt was wrong was just plugging the semi loser in. There is already a repechage set. Wrestle the repechage and bump up the medals. No one likes a final on a FF but in that scenario, that is the reality of what happened. You had one person standing unbeaten and within the rules.

Grouper is my choice. I wouldn’t say significant increase but an increase for sure. Not nearly enough to get me away from it or really have an impact, but enough to notice. Roughly 17-18 a pound back in the day to maybe 20-22 now.

Excuse me. This thread has a very direct purpose. Can you take that nonsense y’all repeating over and over and over again to one of the other multiple threads you’re arguing about the same shit on??? Play the game, or go to a different field.

How about the decision to just roll over on his back once they hit the ground, basically handing him four on a platter? I can’t believe what I was watching.

Easy tough guy

They were suspended for a little bit but it was an administrative thing. Not a Russia type thing.

All of these comparisons in the international wrestling world have to be split <2000> You simply cannot compare medal counts between 10 weights with 1 Russian, and 6-8 weights with multiple Russians. Yea the satellites were their own federation in ‘96, but they didn’t have their shit together yet and there were still ten weights.

She is the face of the fastest growing sports in the United States. A sport that not only allows for Olympic opportunities but now also college scholarships opportunities. And the United States team has already cemented their best Olympics ever, with four more athletes to go. People who have jobs studying trends because marketing contracts depend on trends take notice of these kinds of things. She will have enough revenue to focus on her international career and her pace course work, if she so chooses.

I am doing nothing more than just guessing, but yes I believe she can match in endorsement deals whatever she would get from an NIL collective. Money is not going to be an issue, she is going to be just fine either way.

She can enroll in a full time schedule, work a full class load and follow the college team training and competition schedule, to compete with a group that have absolutely no business being on the mat with her. Or she can earn a degree at whatever pace she feels like while continuing to focus on her solo career, with the money she is banking from her competition earnings and endorsement deals.

Agreed, people are going to hang in the fact he is the one seed but brooks got the absolute best draw he could have.

According to an article I read, (can’t remember where, but sourcing India media) they did cut her hair and even drew blood.

Derangement syndrome is at a high level during the Olympics.

I can't believe people are still butthurt over this. Wow.

Debby visited this past weekend. Lots and lots and lots of water.

Excellent way to kick this off. I am a fan of combining different varieties of SBR, with some other stuff. But i think if i were to go just straight BBQ out of the bottle.......Stubbs might win that one. That's tough.

This is on here a whooooole lot. So maybe this will be fun. In this thread, call out anyone you want, and ask them any question you want. The person to be called out must answer. In order for this to work, we will all need to commit to two covenants. 1)If you are going to participate, you must answer if you are called out. 2)If you are going to participate, you must agree to ignore, for two weeks, anyone who participates...but fails to answer a question. Making any comment in this thread, with an open question to you, constitutes failing to answer a question. This is stupid, but to show good faith, I'll throw myself to the lambs first. Fire away.....

I said this to a friend earlier: This is not a discussion anymore. The GOAT discussion is over. From now on, everything else is: Who is the Lopez of this era. Or.....Who is the Lopez of that weight....or....Who is the Lopez of basketball. The man won his fourth Olympics, and didn't wrestle again until he won his fifth Olympics. No one actually scored on him in either one (I haven't gone back to look at scores for the first three). He could have 8-0 everyone in the field, but he didn't want to. He didn't want to humiliate anyone, he just wanted to 3-1 his way to the unquestionable greatest ever. Even Micheal Jordan took a break, came back......and got beat. (He didn't even make the finals).

It’s absolutely about control of the middle and not who’s the aggressor. The other thing it is, by putting the aggressor down first, you give him the second chance, to put his opponent down. Many of those matches are going to go to criteria, and by way of going down first, and top second, the aggressor wins the match with last point scored, whether it be 1-1, or 3-3. You won’t see that written in any officials handbook, but that’s part of what that’s about.

Three point….are you okay?

HDS coming through!! Got a package people!!!
