AKHUNTER

I blame it on hollywood being VERY gay

I didn't think Bubba's pin of Taylor was a fluke. I said all tournament that Taylor was in poor position on his shots and someone was going to make him pay for that. Bubba did...... which kinda makes sense. He had practiced with him plenty I am sure.

you answered your self........ uh it's "stupid logic"

I just got a call confirming my tickets. Man it's costing an arm and a leg to get to Tulsa and back home. Oh well going anyway.

hmmmm...... isn't the top wrestler by rule called the " OFFENSIVE " wrestler...... Makes me think he outta be uh..........on offense. IMO a top wrestler not trying to score/pin is stalling.

AMEN!!!

NO.......the refs leave their balls at home.

uh......you are now.....dated lol

I like most of this/.......but how about 7 for a pin. Make pins mean a LOT......... like they used to. Pins are so under valued in today's scoring. It's very easy to see why there are so few pins now days. Make their value HIGH and pins will increase. After all, pinning should be what you should be trying for every match...... Pretty sure Schalles would agree.

yup.. they are still ........wet behind their ears

I would hope not. The kid deserves the chance to show he isn't his brother

he looked tough..... but Richards was on fire!

the Iranian fans here, as always, are VERY vocal and supportive of their wrestlers. The new thing they bring to this event are LOUD vocal protests of what is going on in Iran and wanting major change at home.

there is some great wrestling taking place....someone mentioned Zahid V. (sp?) earlier .........he is looking very tough here.

here at the meet, it is obvious there are some refs that are making rulings against the US that are biased. where have we seen this before.

just picked up my tickets for the World Cup. Sometimes I need to get south for some wrestling.

well that is ONE opinion

I want to see him reach both goals. But of course Oly Gold is better than #4.

thanks for your imput dad

lol.....cause PSU has the best........ or he thought they weren't? btw........ imo........ANYONE who wrestles in college is not crappy. just not as tough as the best.

it's a loooooong held secret............. recruit the very best........... be the very best. recruit crappy......be crappy

yes.............lol

this is MUCH better

uh.....we have consistency.........consistently BAD non calls for stalling. "back in the day" stalling was actually called when it occurred. which wasn't all that often because wrestlers knew they would be called.

the rule book says you must continue to try "to improve your position" a great example of refs not doing their job............. wrestler A shoots....wrestler B spralls.....wrestler A locks hands and waits for the ref to call a stalemate with NO effort to "improve" his position. That is freaking STALLING! I got ahold of that leg a LOT.......... I would never have thought to not continue to improve from that position. The refs have the absolute responsibility to call what they KNOW is stalling. I know a college ref very well who actually calls stalling. He has many times told me how refs will tell him they will stop a match when they know a guy is going to end up backing off the mat. That way they don't have to call it. Refs not calling stalling is HUGE problem for our sport.
