re: NCAA wrestling finals tonight

That's why you keep wrestling the entire match.


Watched a match at the Louisiana state HS tournament this year that really illustrates this. Wrestler 1 was stalling his arse off running around the mat, the stalls get called but he's up 10-9. They go out if bounds and reset in the center with 2 seconds left. Whistle blows, Wrestler 2 attacks, wrestler 1 stalls again, wrestler 2 wins 11-10.

We didn't have wrestling in HS but over the last few years I've gone from vaguely familiar to damn near addicted lol.

September 7th, 2003....what glorious time to be on tigerdroppings.com....
I dont know saying "i fricking can't see, i can't fricking see" in a slightly panicky voice, the ref should know to step in. One thing with an abrasion, you don't feel it right away. It will be a few minutes before you realize your fricked. For me it was on the ride home from the gym.
Some of these people are nuts. Ive had a corneal abrasion. In addition to the vision problems, it is incredibly painful. Like blowtorch on your eyeball fire. I ended up wearing freaking grandma cataract glasses for a week.

Return of LSU Wrestling is the next step, not hockey.

I don't quite remember it that way. People were sick of 3rd & Chavis and accurately predicted A&M got a washed up lemon.

Miles to Michigan beats everything IMO.

I've heard nothing but positive things about jpg. We toured the school, my son loved it was waitlisted. That was 2 yrs ago. Something about the boy to girl ratio was way off and the likelihood of him getting in was very low. He's moved on but we are considering sending our daughters there.
We've been associated with 3 Catholic schools and fundraisers are a non-stop occurrence. Its not just jpg.
A family member worked in India for a few months. Dude lost like 50 lbs; he was scared to eat anything lol

Have I mischaracterized anything about his career?

Certainly. You use his lack of being Ranger qualified as an issue but fail to mention that Ranger school slots are extremely rare for Guardsmen (enlisted or officer).
Can't believe Dartez isn't getting any interest from smaller colleges.
Paying back the value of the scholarship plus whatever other benefits they get would be one way to stop it but it wouldn't address the fact that some players are encouraged to transfer because of ability or academics.

A really good kid who insisted on redshirting & complained he wasn't getting reps like a starter.

Why didn’t LSU just pay the $50K more?


Because BK saw it for what it was: a bidding war.
