  1. Yes, we have a camp up near Camptown USA Bradford County. Its a beautiful drive from WIlliamsport. When anyone is visiting State College and they happen to have an extra day I always recommend the drive up to Elk country Benezette through Quehanna Wild Area
  2. Born & raised in somewhere Pennsylvania. Have lived in other states out west. Currently back in PA running a family business until my kids graduate high school then out to Durango Co.
  3. The name was adopted from their minor league team that oddly enough only lasted 4 years. I guess from bad investing The Williamsport Millionaires were a minor league baseball team based in Williamsport, Pennsylvania from 1906 to 1910. Many teams in this era never adopted formal nicknames and neither did the Millionaires. The Millionaire name was used by newspaper writers of the era in reference to the high salaries that the Williamsport owners were able to pay to the members of the team.[1
  4. Strange mascot name indeed. Not a great long term strategy when factoring in the rate of inflation. Going to bite them in the butt come year 2200.
  5. Bernie, I thought you were a PSU guy? Williamsport area? What's going on?
  6. Fix was undefeated in High School Folk unless you count 2014 Who's #1 when he lost to Suriano
  7. I only came in peace & wasn't trying to debate. It was just a heads up
  8. Just a heads up you might get a few responses. The wording in your post came out a little confusing. I had to reread it to get your point
  9. Don't see how he'd be the 4 seed unless he loses at the EIWA tournament. He's a shoo-in for the 3 seed.
  10. Arujau is definitely not a sleeper. 133 along with many other weight classes just don't get discussed much on this board. The board spends more time talking about if Spencer Lee could beat Cael Sanderson when in their primes or is so & so a "meanie".
  11. Spencer Lee bumps up and wrestles Logan Steiber in the finals at 157
  12. The old forum was quite naturally perfect, it was a work of art, flawless, sublime. A triumph equaled only by its monumental failure. The inevitability of its doom was apparent as a consequence of the imperfection inherent in every wrestling forum, thus it was redesigned based on its own history to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of its' nature.
  13. Edited my post after you responded. Would be interesting to see those stats from '97 and compare them to how scoring is applied currently
  14. Do you have the breakdown from that year? And how scoring in '97 differentiates from today? Fun topic
  15. All you need to know is that it puts Ben Askren in to a predicament.
  16. No need to respond to the jealousy. It's nothing more than a yearly aspersion.
  17. Hypothetical - Curious with the braniacs on this board how the scoring in 1997 breaks down to a scenario with PSU on par with similar placement 1997 Iowa 170 points National champions: Jesse Whitmer (118 pounds) - RBY(133) Mark Ironside (134 pounds) - Starrocci (174) Lincoln McIlravy (150 pounds) - Brooks (184) Joe Williams (158 pounds) - Dean (197) Lee Fullhart (190 pounds) - Kerk ( Hvwt) All-Americans: Mike Mena (2nd, 126 pounds) - Haines (157) Kasey Gilliss (6th, 142 pounds) Facundo (165) Mike Uker (5th, 167 pounds) Bartlett (141) ----------------------------- Shayne Van Ness (R12)
  18. Interesting. Last time I checked there was still a delusional fantasy they had a shot to win it all
  19. The supporting cast to their Big 5 will not get them close. Levi is the only one that potentially puts up big points
  20. Let's just hope that he survives in the hospital and makes it to NCAA's. I mean it's going to be hard for me to argue against Cinnabon when he makes his, "Why PSU won't place in the Top 10" thread and I'll be clinging to Dean's death, Brooks' loss to Pinto in the Quarters, and RBY skipping for a gaming tournament as excuses.
  21. The fact that you keep saying it over and over again makes me wonder if it's not true
  22. Max suffered from a bout of diarrhea. Lost 17.38 pounds in the process. Day of the match Cael asked him to sit it out but being the man Dean is he decided to wrestle. This is insider information and I feel somewhat guilty for sharing this but Dean is currently in the hospital. He might die. Let us pray
  23. The old freestyle translates to folk style debate. Pretty sure that theory has failed more often than not. I'm entertaining the idea but asking for specifics as to why it'll happen.
