  1. its just like NCAAs. He's home, starts getting anxious cause no ones paying attention to him, starts nonsense on social media.
  2. And its also off putting because your opinion is something that has already been considered by 100% of people before you started the topic.
  3. Thats fair enough, but would you understand if I said I'm normally hostile toward unfalsifiable opinions delivered at the safest possible time? It comes off like you're trying to say "i told you so" when you didn't. I'm not saying your opinion doesn't make sense, but there is a rationale for the push back.
  4. why are you tarnishing the announcement?
  5. Guys, for the love of god, i floated the yianni thing as an absurdity and example of what I consider to be the flaws in the "Taylor would have won" argument.
  6. yeah that was at the trials, he would have been at a new level at the olympics, and Dake would have helped too. If it can be said for Taylor I don't know why not yianni.
  7. OK, btw we should have sent Yianni instead of Zain. He wouldn't have gotten hurt training.
  8. Odd you didn't warn us of this after the trials.
  9. The fact that anyone is responding to this topic with anything but contempt is depressing.
  10. This is accurate. I don't think you could point out a person who maintained "the spark" longer while also attending to the rest of his life (family, business etc.) appropriately. Keep in mind it took him 5 YEARS to make a team.
  11. he didn't win a match at the OTT with the advantage of sitting out. What should brooks have had to do to earn the spot? Anyone who claims to think this should have spoken before the tournament or shut up.
  12. you suck at namling topics
  13. I'm saying that poor rule sets exacerbate the problems within the culture of referees. So while what you are saying is true, I think it is reductionist.
  14. I didn't agree with everything in this post, but I edited it down to three ideas that the wrestling community is refusing to confront at its detriment. And I think this is one of the stronger posts I've read on here btw
  15. I love fakestyle, I don't like the pseudo science refs invent to compensate themselves for having a difficult and thankless job, and in freestyle that is way more prevalent.
  16. he lost at the 2023 worlds
  17. As far as who gets called, i've had a half dozen refs explain to me that they are smart because they put the wrong guy on first, so they can put the right guy on second and the right guy will be winning on criteria. this is why people hate refs.
  18. you said 15 years ago and referenced a match that happened 31 years ago as a source
  19. Another NLWC guy injured. Brooks clearly cutting too much weight...what is that butcher cael thinking?
  20. this whole cinnabon thing was easier than i thought
  21. Well the NLWC knows how to get guys on the team but I guess we know they aren't delivering where it counts! Compared to Lee who obviously had solid game plans the whole tournament its night and day! And then with the years they spent guiding lee through his injuries, its probably the coaching performance of the decade!
  22. There are guys like Lee who you wonder how they are doing what they are doing, and then later you hear someone say its cause they're freakishly strong, but Amoudzad is doing things were you can literally see the power throughout the match. He made Zain look like a child a few times, which i didn't think was possible, and then just rag dolled Musaskeav, that was nuts.
  23. i think zain can do it too.
  24. did anyone read all that?
