Our America should have a blind justice system. You break the law, you are charged with a crime. If it is good enough for some lady in Newport News, it is good enough for Hunter. Shouldn't Our America have a system of justice that is equal for all? They are not even pretending that anymore. mspart

Ok, thanks for that TR. So the coaches are on administrative leave. What else should be done? Innocent until proven guilty correct? So they stay on administrative leave until they find enough evidence to charge or don't. After I left my HS, we had a new coach come in that was my brother's coach. Apparently he had an assistant who beat up the kids regularly, showing them that he was meaner and tougher than the HS kids. I would count that as assault too. I was in college when that happened so wasn't anywhere near and only heard about it after the coach was let go and my brother told me. I'm not big on assault, especially from a coach. That's why I was incensed about what Zalesky allowed at OSU when Nick Simmons was assistant there. I can't find a link but it happened and that was my turnaround on Zalesky. I was very happy he was fired from there. mspart

Yeah, I was saying earlier was that they need to increase the points needed to tech fall. Otherwise I think there will be a lot more tech falls. mspart

What is this about? I haven't heard of this. mspart

He may go to Belgrade but only to watch the action. mspart

Happy Flag Day everybody!! mspart

https://www.wtkr.com/news/mother-of-6-year-old-that-shot-newport-news-teacher-facing-federal-gun-drug-charges NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — The mother of the 6-year-old boy accused of shooting his teacher on January 6, 2023, is now facing federal gun and drug charges. Federal documents outline how Deja Taylor is accused of knowing she was an unlawful user of marijuana when she possessed and purchased a gun from a gun shop in Grafton, Virginia. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/10/hunter-biden-may-be-hit-with-tax-and-gun-charges-report.html Federal agents investigating Hunter Biden believe they have enough evidence to charge him with lying on his taxes and on an application to purchase a gun, according to the Washington Post. The possible gun charge involves Biden’s answer on a federal firearms-licensing form that asks if the applicant is “an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance.” He reportedly answered “no” when purchasing a firearm in 2018 despite having chronicled his addiction to crack cocaine. So why is an unknown Mom in Newport News facing federal gun charges for lying on her federal gun purchase form and Hunter Biden is not for the same thing? Maybe he will, and he should. But he is high profile and she is not. It is things like this that are extremely concerning. Both broke the law, one is paying for it, the other is not. One is unknown, the other the son of the sitting President. You do the math. mspart

And that's the name of the game. Take the match out of the hands of the refs. Dominate. Then there is no question. I'm guessing this is easier said than done. mspart

Delicious to both!! mspart

What change(s) are you talking about? mspart

Snyder has been consistent since 2015. He has medalled in each WC or Olympics since then. That is pretty darn incredible. mspart

As well he should. That should not happen and should be clearly dealt with out in the open. Interesting how we came around again to all this. mspart

Why would they not have the proper scoring equipment? How long has USAW been in the business of international wrestling? I'm not one to complain about this kind of thing really, but with scoring changing every few years, maybe it is too much to invest in when it will go obsolete soon. mspart

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you very much!! mspart

Yikes, and people think there are crazies here. Those are some real crazies. mspart

We shall see. I was very surprised at Lee's effort at Final X. Good luck to him. mspart

And this is based on what exactly? He lost in 2020 and left. That should be a clue to how dumb of an expert Ruth is. mspart

sum are moor dumberer then other. mspart

I never did!! mspart

I live in the Seattle area, even today, we have no sun to generate electricity. However, we bought a new house on Oahu when we moved there years ago and I put up a solar water heater on the roof. It worked great but had to be careful in the shower as the water was 140F. If I lived where it is sunny, I might consider doing solar. But solar also has it's environmental costs so it is not actually free energy. But Eastern WA, Eastern OR, Nevada, Idaho and parts towards the Mississippi, all could do solar and be good. Except where it snows. You'd have to be on the roof sweeping the arrays or have "windshield wipers" for them!! mspart

Kudos to Chance for busting it up with JB. Kudos to JB for the last decade of stellar wrestling. Good luck to Chance in Belgrade. mspart

JB has been a boon for the sport. He has been a great ambassador for Wrestling. I am sad that he did not make the team like I expected, but perhaps he can now concentrate on other things. He's had a great run, I congratulate him on all his success, and wish only the best for him and his family. mspart

If I understand this correctly, you are saying a step out deserves par terre with the guy that went out defending? I think that is an awesome idea and would put ground wrestling back in the mix. FS lacks that as a whole. mspart

Mike What do you doubt? Mandates will get pushed out? The infrastructure will not be there? Not sure what you doubt. Electric cars, in my opinion, will not replace regular cars for those that need to travel long distances, need trucks to haul stuff, etc. It will not be popular at all. But for those that only commute to and from work, it might work out for them ok. But will they choose to take that car on a 500 mile trip? Nope. Having to charge up overnight in the middle of the drive is not that appealing. Charging up faster damages the battery from what I understand. So the fast speedy charge would ultimately be counter productive. mspart

Hey Plasi - You are identifying a beauty pageant as a sporting event. This is by far one of the funniest things you have said. As far as the winner of Miss SF, you are in the right place. As for your comment about girls beating boys, top girls can beat mediocre boys. Top girls will very rarely if ever beat top boys in a sporting competition unless it is a beauty pageant. Then is when the true luster of men win out over women. It is a proud day for sure. I notice you are not arguing my point about no women have beaten men in top tier sports at the highest level. But I can give you various examples of the reverse. Lia Thomas is but one example, 463rd ranked male swimmer, becomes an NCAA champion in women's swimming in the first year of him competing in women's swimming. Recent weight lifting competition in Canada where a guy won the women's division. https://www.foxsports.com.au/more-sports/bearded-man-smashes-womens-weightlighting-record-held-by-trans-lifter/news-story/92986fdec0b7e855b8b6f6271d938e8d US women's soccer just lost a 45 minute friendly to Wrexham AFC. That's 24-nil in a 90 minute standard game that usually is not that kind of a blowout. https://www.cbssports.com/soccer/news/u-s-women-bring-fun-and-brave-perspective-in-12-0-elimination-loss-to-wrexham-in-the-soccer-tournament/ Yes it was fun and brave to lose so horribly. At least they kept it to 12. In addition, US women's soccer lost to a U15 boys team in Dallas. https://www.cbssports.com/soccer/news/a-dallas-fc-under-15-boys-squad-beat-the-u-s-womens-national-team-in-a-scrimmage/ Oh they weren't serious. The boys apparently were. That is just plain embarrassing. https://www.sportskeeda.com/tennis/news-the-williams-sisters-vs-karsten-braasch-the-world-no-203-destroyed-serena-williams-venus-williams-battle-sexes Oh, and lets not forget Serena and Venus Williams losing 6-1 and 6-2 respectively to Karsten Braasch ranked 203 in men's tennis, prompting Serena to say about playing Andy Murray "Andy Murray has been joking about myself and him playing a match. I'm like, 'Seriously? Are you kidding me?' Men's tennis and women's tennis are two completely different sports," Serena Williams said. "If I were to play him, I'd lose 6-0, 6-0 within 10 minutes. Men are a lot faster, they serve and hit harder. It's a different game." Please provide examples of women beating men where the men are at the highest level of their sport, not including beauty contests. mspart
