  1. The "war heroes" post wasn't really the appropriate place for you to editorialize.
  2. This is the poster who enjoys going out of his way to diminish the accolades of WW2 heroes.
  3. https://nittanylionswire.usatoday.com/2023/02/16/former-penn-state-wrestler-bo-nickal-signs-deal-with-betr/
  4. I mean, I have seen PSU fans and other Iowa/Brands haters positively giddy over this. They act like its about "institutional control" and I've even seen some idiots remark "notice how no PSU athletes were caught." There is a good chance PSU wrestlers have bet on college sports over the past couple years, but the state of PA did not go after underage gambling and they definitely did not target the top collegiate athletic programs in the state.
  5. Please tell me about all the other states that did a similar investigation... That is what is uneven.
  6. Sorry for the consecutive posts! Just catching up on things. As someone who generally roots for the Hawks unless they are wrestling the Wolfpack, I am sorry to see these guys lose their final year, but I also understand the penalties and am fine with them. He knew the rules and broke them. What I am not fine with is that this only effects one state, and only a couple institutions in that state. I am 100% certain that they would find similar transgressions amongst athletes in every Division 1 school, but those states aren't going to be investigated or punished. Seems a bit "uneven."
  7. I saw a man put on the ground and cuffed for jaywalking while leaving a Division 1 college football game!
  8. Taylor can be competitive in multiple areas of his life; he doesn't need to be a college coach. He is already an owner of multiple businesses and coaches one of the top clubs in the US. I'm sure he is more than capable of being "extremely competitive" as an entrepreneur and club coach.
  9. Heaven forbid we have talented guys go into Greco! I'm sure none of these Europeans or Asians who medal are talented in the least! We also had multiple medal threats on a regular basis. It wasn't just one year when a few guys medaled. Now, we are lucky to wrestle for just one senior medal.
  10. They likely don't want greater attendance from the US, and my tinfoil hat is also telling me that (because of recent US success) the deck may be even more stacked against us in coming years.
  11. And was putting a tremendous amount of energy into coaching.
  12. Well, there were suggestions on the other board for him to take up parkour to become more agile.
  13. Part of the problem is they are both currently about the same size, but one has to go 197 and the other 285. Maybe Warner lost a coin flip or something.
  14. Want a high seed? Be active. Go to rankings tourneys. It certainly helped guys like Rivera. I know it is sacrilege in some circles to suggest this, but I think Nick Lee may have found some more success with Rivera's draw. Should have hit some tourneys, Rivera did. It was a bit messed up this year, because the Russians who may have wanted to attend Euros, ranking series events, or 2022 Worlds, were barred from doing so.
  15. Good idea, but I think there are some pretty tough hombres in the Swiss Guard.
  16. He was also likely about to be laced and teched by Ringer this year if he didn't scream.
  17. He was FAR from beating the Ringer last time out, though.
