BigRedFan Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 1 hour ago, flyingcement said: Is DeAuggie hurt? That would be pretty sad if the number one matchup didn't happen. I had NC State and Binghamton on last night - mostly to see the 197 matchup. DePrez was a no show. Waste of time. I'm becoming a bit cynical now as a fan. Might be time to cancel another subscription. DePrez injury defaulted his last match at the Scuffle. Legit no-show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has a new ice age hit the Minnesoda and they are trapped beneath? Has the hamster flu spread to the larger rodents? Is there a new variant of Govid? Did their Uber driver dump em off in Lake Michigan? Did wild cats chase em into Indiana? Please tell us you are ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Kong Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Just now, jammen said: "looking for a breakdown to a take down". "trying to free himself from the grapple", "looking to get on the leaderboard", "trying for the all-encompassing escape". Taking about the guy on top: "he wants to show some good defense here". You could make a very funny montage of his malapropisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if anyone here grew up watching Bowery Boys reruns, but the classic "It was 120 degrees centipede" was one of my favorite malapropisms ever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Salazar looked huge in person when SDSU wrestled Minny. He also dismantled a tough young prospect Bennet Berge that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my post after Midlands - glad someone agrees. The kid has been working and waiting for his shot. Btw , he beat Yahya fair and square a couple years back. He seems to have no ego - just goes out and wrestles - really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he was a tad fuzzy on "Major Decision" vs. "that's a major decision" (4-1) as well. I really hope the next dual on B10+ is away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
