    forgive me for asking a question from the suspicious corner of my mind, but you seem skeptical about pretty much every claim of sleazy recruiting practices in this thread, is that the case?
  2. Hammerlock3
    you're ruining the joke
  3. Hammerlock3
    now that you mention it, i remember something like that doing down.
  4. Hammerlock3
    well i didn't reference that myself, in fact i hadn't heard it, i was referring to what headshuck said. If I had to guess, I'd bet headshuck had some knowledge of Hall giving a verbal commitment and not living up to it.
  5. Hammerlock3
    yeah they're all on staff....no i was referring to what headsuck alluded to, the practice of recruiting committed kids. And i shouldn't have called out PSU its common practice.
  6. Hammerlock3
    PSU does that constantly. Nolf has talked about it, Kerk committed to two school before PSU...
  7. Hammerlock3
    severely doubt it

    was there ever a more blatant example of corruption than when they recruited him right as they gave his dad a job.....

    As soon as I read the tweet i imagined some old korean lady stepping over the collapsed body of a gassed out downey in the frozen food section.

    Yeah I hope I don't seen argumentative or repetitive, but athletes could be treated differently based on evidence, like in a courtroom, but when you're dealing with a bureaucracy its more likely the discrimination is based on perceived trends, image and risk mitigation.

    there you go

    oh man if only he'd known about sequencing back in the day.....all those matches he tried something and it didn't work so he just quit for the rest of the match would have been way different.
  13. Hammerlock3
    i would assume so. Seems like a lot of these guys would compete on one day every 18 months if they could get away with it.
  14. Hammerlock3
    he's more clutch than Brooks or sanderson...also had a lot more practice at it.
  15. Hammerlock3
    yeah but is there any reason to assume thats what the decision was based on
  16. Hammerlock3
    sanderson's motion was way better (best ever), he knew way way way more positions, his forward pressure didn't require standing on train tracks (more of a zig zag), way better on top (maybe a wash because no one is getting ridden), but the big thing to me is that he seemed reckless while always in control...the guy was scary, brook is just really good.

    How do you reconcile that with Sidakov and uguev remaining on the team? Is there a differentiation in Sad's support from theirs? As I alluded to above it looks like they wanted to make a statement without showing any courage.
  18. Hammerlock3
    kinda gives the feeling they wanted russia to feel it but didn't have to balls to be consistent about it...half measures are a cowards form of insanity...i just made that up btw
  19. Hammerlock3
    i just can't stand clues confirming my suspicion that the whole place is in cruise control...
  20. Hammerlock3
    I'm sympathetic to this argument but its just not a sustainable standard. Even if you had a really rigorous, thoughtful, and ethical group of people in charge (which the IOC ISN'T) the question of "who is a good enough person to compete" is just beyond any sort of arbitration. Its kind of like the best free speech argument. Are some ideas so bad that they shouldn't be said ever? Yes. Is there someone so informed and wise that anyone would delegate the privilege of deciding what they get to hear? No.

    flo please edit the title on this page. https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/12371913-2024-last-chance-olympic-team-trials-qualifier-entires
  22. Hammerlock3
    Uguev and Sidakov are already qualified right? does this have something to do with it?
  23. Hammerlock3
    Yeah but what about people wrestling for countries where abortion is legal?!?!?!
  24. Hammerlock3
    I asked before, and its certainly taylor losing would surprise me but not stun me, but how is brooks gonna beat him? Underhooking him won't work, brooks is not a better handfighter and likely worse, no one is getting tired, Taylor's defense is much better, both take doubles and outside steps from space so thats a wash too, Taylors cross pick/knee pull is better than any leg attack brooks has... Also Brooks had to gas out Zahid to beat him, pretty sure taylor had him from the first whistle.

    i went to the link, it didn't say anything about bracket placement that I could see...
