Biden is a laughingstock. Where have you been? We have no respect around the world because he falls asleep in mtgs and makes no sense when he is awake. He doesn't know where he is half the time and wonders out loud that he will get in trouble if he says anything. That is laughingstock material. Trump is combative for sure, but he knows it. He feeds off of it. I don't like that, but his policies were good. Better than Biden's. Biden signed EOs on inauguration day that undid many of Trumps policies and we are where we are. And you are actually pleased at where we are? Of course you are. mspart

I think the fact that the Pan Ams are not a slam dunk anymore should require something more. I like the idea of the US National Champion for the weights involved will be the Pan AM OG qualifier representative. If someone has aspirations to be at the Olympic Games, they should aspire to be the rep that gets that weight qualified. I really like this idea a lot. mspart

Maybe. I just don't find it attractive. mspart

He won't. He has too much class to do that. That was completely classless of Pelosi. A sign of the ultimate disrespect she has for him. Talk about sowing division and being nasty. Pelosi is a poster child. mspart

My prediction is his speech tonight will be a failure because he will fail before it is over. And everyone will see what kind of shape this guy (who can run circles around anyone else in the white house which should tell you about those couch potatoes) is in and he will leave the race shortly after. mspart

I haven't watched it, have you? As a result, I have no opinion about it. I assume you watched all of it as you seem to have a very strong opinion of it. mspart

Everyone's a winner. mspart

Comments above in red. As I have said, I support DeSantis as the R candidate and I hope that that somehow still happens. Hope against hope. Trump is a plague in how he presents himself but generally had positive policies that had the country going in the right direction, which is one reason he is leading in the polls. The other is the banana republic judicial tactics that are being used against him is obvious to anyone that it is a coordinated attack from the left to eliminate bad orange man. That also has galvanized support for him. I would like another candidate for sure. But I wouldn't vote for anyone that thinks the last 3 years has been taking our nation in a positive direction. mspart

My prediction - Biden won't survive the State of the Union Speech tonight. I think this is planned, perhaps not by him. But he will have to speak for 20 minutes and be fine or speak for an hour and completely show the nation how "well" he really is. If the latter, I think he drops out of the race shortly afterward. mspart

We have until 25 Mar to find out if he's in or not. mspart

Yes, that might be a good thing to do. That woudl bring out the OTT qualifiers that might otherwise not bother with the US Nationals. mspart

That ain't!! mspart

I guess ringer is relative. Without NCAA folks in the Pan Ams Qualifier, we should have qualified the two weights. Hence they are ringers that upset the apple cart. Clumsy perhaps, but will there be serious competition at the last chance qualifier? mspart

Does anyone here think this is the prettiest woman to ever exist? mspart

I cannot say anything about the Pro. I think most are true. The last he has pushed with his condemning half of the republic (MAGA) for having a different agenda from his and saying half the republic is anti-democracy. The Con however I take exception with. He did not inherit a mess of problems. He created most of the problems he "inherited" by EO'ing out of existence previous policies. I agree he's 80 years old. I disagree that he isn't forceful enough. That implies that he could be forceful enough. He is 80 and a victim of dementia which comes to most people and is not on a set schedule. It has happened to him before his time perhaps but he is incapable of being forceful enough because the lacks the mental clarity to do so. When he sits there and says he better not say anything or he'll get in trouble, that is not a sign he is not forceful enough. It is incompetence. mspart

So in the world of USA MFS wrestling, 57 and 65 still have yet to qualify and that will be done at the last chance qualifer a few weeks after the Oly Trials. What are the chances here for us? I have heard that the competition will be tougher than Pan Am qualifier but I find that tough to understand. We had some NCAA ringers there at the Pan Ams and it was actually tougher than the Pan Am Championships the week before. Who else could be there to disrupt us from making it to the Olys in these weights? I'm not arguing that there is good competition, that's why I'm asking. mspart

He's got little more than a month to prepare. So when does he have to give intent to participate? mspart

I hope he recovers from that head knock. I hope he stays with USA. I could care less if he goes to NLWC. What is wrong with going there? It is pretty much the premier place to go. Steel sharpens steel. But whatever, I hope he recovers well and can compete to the best of his ability come oly trials. mspart

You have been continually given facts and just the facts and you continue with hyperbole and conjecture against those facts. A bit of projection eh? mspart

That's the one. mspart

Clearly. mspart

When is the last date that Gable can sign up for the Oly Trials. I suppose since he was an Oly champ he has automatic rights to be in the trials. mspart

That's great news I think. I liked that they did this before. It's not the Olys but its the next best thing. mspart

Those are some serious boots. They'll give her a bad back if she wears them much. mspart

Yes, work is impossible, that's for sure. As we know, all things just appear or are handed to us as people. That's how we got the car, the computer, the cell phone, the toaster, the hydraulic lift, the shovel, the hoe, etc. The list goes on and on. Oh wait, someone made these and had to work to provide them to other people that paid them money for their expertise in making these things. Now we were given dirt. You can do a lot with dirt but most of that involves work. mspart
