It makes sense that a non Penn State fan would be disinterested in a team wrestling championship.
I have never been interested in it been that way since my first NCAAs in 97. I have always liked individuals over teams . Same with pro sports I don't have any teams

He's always been a class act. When it happened I said it was out of character for him and he definitely didn't mean it the way it was taken
Yeah, I think everyone here knows/knew that dude, but thanks for playing (and making sure everyone knows you made that profound observation).

this is crazy. the women's volleyball team had a whole card set made for them and all they got was 10k?

not trying to be a dick, but you think a WVB card set generated revenue?

I’m not really complaining, but I wonder how they do the calculation that wrestling gets 145 times more sharing money than volleyball.

I know zero about the baseball team, but they got 30x more than volleyball. Volleyball at least has a recent history of national championships and national recognition, and a strong following.

Everyone who's followed Hardy knows he meant no disrespectful with his pat but it's not like Braeden had a ton of time to process "Oh he's been a good guy in his career, he's just saying good match" He was embrassed and upset in the moment.

It takes a big person to apologize even when your intentions were good if you unintentionally offend anyone, especially when the public is clearly on his side. Brock has shown over and over in his career that's exact what he is. Don't forget in 2024, there was a very controversial PD stoppage when he was regaining momentum to beating Beau and he released a statement saying he lost fair and square.

Then of course, we can remember how he reacted to AJ doing his usual celebration after the dual, it's clear he holds his teammates to the standards he holds himself to (has to be tough with AJ)

Echo everyone else here when I say I'm rooting for Hardy and I believe he is going far in life, whether it's wrestling or not.
