  1. Youtube tells you exactly where your videos are embedded as a content creator. All law enforcement would have to do is 1. get that info from youtube. 2. Search this person's computer and internet history to show he's posting stuff there. The real question is why doesn't youtube do this and then report it to law enforcement? Why has youtube allowed this crap on their website for so long? And why can't parents sue youtube for hosting the content and profiting off of it. Yes, Youtube has made money off of this sick shit, but for some ***ducked** up reason isn't allowed to be held accountable for it.
  2. So they're saying he's likely to be an Iowa student-athlete. Good reporting SHP
  3. Good ideas. This is only going to be stopped by updating the laws (both criminal and civil). You don’t need congress-do this at the local level too. The video quality is definitely part of the problem. YouTube has been around for 20 years.
  4. It was always burning, since the worlds been turning
  5. How many of those guys faced sexual battery charges?
  6. Do they currently live and train in Des Moines? If yes, he needs to go because he already brought them in regardless of whether they are wrestling unattached. If no, I agree.
  7. I knew the name was Rodriguez, so I googled it. I’m not that good.
  8. My point is that no community is immune from this behavior and people will defend those who do it in all those communities. It is a big problem that needs to be addressed. And yes, legal action is the best way.
  9. C.J. Rodriguez. I don’t think he was dqd but opponent was awarded a point. Took the case to court, but lost.
  10. Climate change isn't complicated at all. All you need to do is read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_effect. The simple explanation is that some gases absorb infrared radiation released by the earth and release that energy as vibrational energy that then heats the atmosphere. This is directly measurable by simply doing IR spectroscopy of gases like CO2 (vs O2 and N2). Here is the key paragraph: The wavelengths of radiation emitted by the Sun and Earth differ because their surface temperatures are different. The Sun has a surface temperature of 5,500 °C (9,900 °F), so it emits most of its energy as shortwave radiation in near-infrared and visible wavelengths (as sunlight). In contrast, Earth's surface has a much lower temperature, so it emits longwave radiation at mid- and far-infrared wavelengths (sometimes called thermal radiation or radiated heat).[6] A gas is a greenhouse gas if it absorbs longwave radiation. Earth's atmosphere absorbs only 23% of incoming shortwave radiation, but absorbs 90% of the longwave radiation emitted by the surface,[9] thus accumulating energy and warming the Earth's surface. All the data collected by climate scientists only confirms what is obvious, as the % of IR absorbing gases in our atmosphere increases, global temperature will also increase.
  11. Really? There weren't these types of issues in Italian NJ towns from organizations like the Boy Scouts of America or The Catholic Church? What about that coach at Bergen Catholic in New Jersey who was defended even after extremely creepy text messages came out? I have no clue what the solution to this problem is, but it's a huge problem and no community is immune from it. Maybe there can be some type of civil legal taken that can be taken against these people if their actions are not considered criminal? If it's not currently a violation of civil law, maybe we can try to lobby states to pass laws limiting how video content of minors is shared?
  12. Tom Brands needs to go. Absolutely disgraceful and a huge liability for the university to have them on campus. This is the most obvious and inevitable disaster situation that I've ever seen.
  13. The big deal is that he lost. You might as well buy two one-way bus tickets out of town instead of one. Maybe they can get a discount. Yeah, of course that's what it was. He did it after the push to point out how stupid they act, yet still lose.
  14. You're a week early. Festivus is the 23rd.
  15. Say goodbye to all D1 sports other than Basketball.
  16. Wow-Hidden in plain sight.
  17. I see four dominant victories. 8-2 isn't a close match.
  18. How did I denigrate him? I have zero respect for WWE and Vince McMahon. If anything, I have more respect for him for not being what WWE wants. It's not surprising at all that WWE made this choice because Gable isn't roided up, doesn't look like a freak, and isn't obnoxious like Logan Paul. It's very easy to see somebody this talented doing backyard WWE shows, when he is the best at the world at something else, and recognize that it wasn't a great decision. Of course he can do whatever he wants, but we can't make an obvious observation on a message board? Are you going to be offended if I also say Aaron Pico might have made a mistake in foregoing college and international wrestling?
  19. Yep-it seems exactly as if they signed him to a contract and are giving him the shittiest assignments possible to try to get him to quit, but he knows if he just shows up, the checks will keep coming in. I don't know why anybody thought WWE would suddenly care about Olympic wrestling credentials and why this would be a better career choice than continuing to be the best freestyle HWT wrestler in the world.
  20. Guy can't take a hint that they're not interested.
  21. I think you might see cities ban gas vehicles in the not-too-distant future. The better air quality in places like NYC and LA would be worth it for the residents.
  22. Metcalf, Mocco, Schlatter (maybe due to injury in part), Askren. Many of the best domestic wrestlers have been humbled against international competition. We are in a golden era where a guy who has won "only" one world silver medal at age 24 can be viewed as overhyped.
  23. Who did Iran try to send in their federation to Albania? For the event in the U.S., the main person to be denied entry was Alireza Dabir, and there was no way he was going to be let into the country based on his prior comments. During a televised interview in early January, the federation president went political as he expressed his admiration for Iran’s top general commander, Qasem Soleimani, killed in a US airstrike two years ago. “We keep chanting ‘death to America,’ but what counts is that we demonstrate that in action,”
  24. That's true-i'm sure some programs outside the power 5 are profitable as well-I'm just saying the entire power 5 is. So loss of football revenue would have a terrible outcome for most of the best D1 wrestling programs. If you factor in alumni donations and the impact of football on drawing interest from potential students, it is probably a net benefit to have a D1 football program even if it loses money from purely a net profit standpoint.
  25. Flag football will probably get better ratings than wrestling if NFL athletes compete. Wrestling could be a winter sport if you somehow combine it with skiing.How about this: 1. The wrestling mat is on top of a bunch of snow. 2. Wrestle period 1. Scoring occurs as it traditionally has. 3. Cross country ski around the mat for a bit-you get points for a certain time of skiing. 4. Wrestle period 2. Winner is declared by pin, technical fall on the mat, or technical ski somehow.
