  1. You seemed like you wanted to be asked, or else why bring it up?
  2. It reads like you don't have a singular GOAT, but rather a top tier. If so, who is in that tier?
  3. Think of it this way, you can never lose because never is a long time to never use an exclamation point.
  4. Does it make me a bad person if I have never used an emoji? Reading about your various techniques for self care makes me not regret swimming, in spite of the partially torn labrums
  5. My guess is they all need chiropractor/PT all the time. Though, Amos did wrestle again on Sunday, losing to Zach Braunagel 3-4. No idea how he looked.
  6. If I am not mistaken, everyone from everywhere considers him the GOAT.
  7. The official count has caught up with the unofficial count. Five preseason #1's have fallen (Cole Matthews, Yianni Diakomihalis, Will Lewan/Brayton Lee, Aaron Brooks, Max Dean, Cohlton Schultz). But wait, there is more. Make fun of Wrestlestat all you want, but only three of their preseason #1's have taken an L. They had Austin O'Connor at #1 in 157 (though he has dropped to #3) and Mason Parris in 285. But wait, there is even more more. When I downloaded the Wrestlestat data on 10/27 they had O'Connor at an Elo of 1570.43. They now say his preseason Elo was 1553.03 for a #2 ranking. Ahh, data. It can be so slippery.
  8. I am comfortable with him at his own tier because he is 2 for 2 at NCAA's and on a 36 (37) match win streak that includes 1 (2) wins over Mekhi Lewis. Last year he beat the second, third, and seventh place finishers on the way to his title. (Nick Lee, Keegan O'Toole, Aaron Brook, and Gable Steveson also beat 3 ultimate AA's - everyone else beat 2). The year before as the 3 seed he beat the 2 seed and 1 seed.
  9. Tier 1 is Starocci. Tier 2 is Labriola, Lewis, and Foca.
  10. For Flo it is 10 of 10 upperclassmen in 125 in the top 10 Caveat: I have done nothing to make sure that each service considers wrestlers to be the same year in school. So if Intermat calls one guy a sophmore and Flo calls him a junior that could explain the difference.
  11. I always thought this too, but you inspired me to take a quick look. Per latest Intermat ratings 125 has the highest total of top 10 ranked wrestlers coming from upper classmen (Juniors and Seniors - however that is defined these days), with 9 of 10. 125 also has the most underclassmen in the 21-33 range.
  12. I knew once we got away from Conestoga wagons these darn kids would wander off too far. Mark my words, SpaceX will be then end of PSU dominance, too.
  13. Would watching Lee v Ramos embolden Fix or scare him off?
  14. Seems like it is mostly your feelings that were hurt.
  15. I don't understand why you think the knee was not designed to bend toward the back.
  16. A personal favorite. With an interesting story behind it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/49:00
  17. His knee wasn't twisted, which is why it is not illegal. His knee was bent in the direction it is designed to bend. Yes, it is extremely uncomfortable, but not any more dangerous than many wrestling moves.
