  1. Because you’re a staunch Hidlay believer so I wanted to rib you. Also because I had lots of wine and was feeling quite merry (not so much this morning)
  2. Live by the edge, die by the edge. @nhs67 how's that underhook doing?
  3. Pros know that if the company doesn't shut down for 2 weeks over the holidays then you don't burn your vacation. It's an easy time where everyone is "heads down working on those side projects that never get touched." Examples of those projects include: starting late, grocery shopping, long lunches with old friends who just got in town, getting a haircut, procrastinating your OKRs and annual eval until the last day, and signing off early.
  4. Are you implying that the president of Boring Co. doesn’t follow through on his word?
  5. Ferrari is going to be the coach?
  6. Was going to make a joke about defaulting out of B1Gs but if he wrestles enough matches he may not even go and just take a wild card bid. The ultimate duck/load management.
  7. And anyone want to take a guess where Gable Steveson is from and his original kids club? I'll give a hint: 3 brothers/5 NCAA titles/1 world medal
  8. *Northwest Chicago has more starters in the B1G than PA though they have just over half the population
  9. Are you really surprised? IL has consistently showed out at the kids level for and has improved results over the past two decades when looking at NCAA results (comparing to doubling as freco champs and only getting 1-2 NCAA AAs per year once we hit the big leagues). The impact Bormet made on the state of IL followed by Medlin is nothing short of fantastic.
  10. "People are saying" - all-time PMT line for all the AWLs on this board.
  11. Chicago is warm... about 5 weeks each summer. And yeah Heartbreak is brutal and has that name for a reason! I do lots of up and downs on parking garages because that's about as close as it gets around here for "hills." How good or bad was it mentally for you when you saw the Citgo sign and the distance to go sunk in?
  12. He'd win nearly as many matches at a single NCAA as the current starter will rack up in 4 combined tourneys (currently at 2 wins in 2 appearances)
  13. Can you give us an executive summary? I refuse to give clicks to those turds in the punch bowl.
  14. Can confirm that Boston sucks. It's brutally technical and every first-timer blows up from the downhill start unless they are treating it as a long-run victory lap. I'm just aiming to finish under 2:50. FWIW every race I have run with Kipchoge, he has set a world record... maybe he goes for the course record in Hopkinton?!
  15. I put my Yiannis on the table last race when things went haywire and required digging deep into the well and I’ll be sure to send a couple pics from Boston on April 17 as a direct result of wrestling motivation. FloSports won’t be there because it will be covered by a legit media company covering a niche sport so if you miss the broadcast you will be stuck with me being “that guy” (again)
  16. @SetonHallPirate three enhancement requests: As a viewer I would like to see which wrestler has the highest SOS when viewing P4P tab. As a viewer I would like to see a sort-filter option added to all tabs for School, Rating, SOS (pending), and Weight. As a viewer I would like to see Name and School column headers added; this will increase capability of drill-downs if #2 request is implemented.
  17. I'm a very self-loathing individual if that's what you are asking
  18. @Husker_Du about to go on an all-timer Mardi Gras for 2 months straight
  19. Don't yuck on someone's yum. Just silently judge them for liking the trashy soap opera like a good midwesterner.
  20. Hope he's packing some heat because he doesn't have a chin or balls
  21. But what about Oly weight finalists? If the whole point is to get the best team then how can that be accomplished? Let's use Cox as an example as assume for this hypothetical's sake that he wants a world medal and is open to going 92 if he doesn't win the spot at 97: Cox goes 97 and makes the finals. Does he also compete at the WTT tourney down at 92? Does he compete at both Final X? I'm asking these questions because this idea has good traction but there would be scenarios to be addressed before FloRadio wholesale lifts this conversation and comes up with invalid talking points.
  22. Just the cost of the venue. Everything else looks good that you suggested minus the US Open which @Eagle26 wisely pointed out. So maybe it's 3rd weekend of March: NCAAs 2nd weekend of April: US Open 4th weekend of April: Last Chance 2nd weekend of May: Olympic weights 4th weekend of May: Non-olympic weights including invitation to all Oly weight qualifiers But how are you going to do Final X? Or will Olympic weights go back to the two-day system that gives a supreme advantage to the incumbent a la JB over Dake. Or is it such that any Oly weight finals participant cannot compete in a non-OIy bracket and thus rendering this whole exercise futile.
