I didn’t understand at first, but eventually you learn that you can let people disagree with your post, speak their opinion, and not respond to and argue with each of them. (@MSU158)

Yeah, I often forget to ask the three questions that one should always ask before speaking/posting:

  1. Does this need to be said?
  2. Does this need to be said right now?
  3. Does this need to be said right now by me?

Unless of course, you think that your post could be nominated for the Portland Cement Crack of the Week.
The three questions no politician ever asked before bloviating on topics they know nothing about :cool:

Larry Lee: I can get you a meeting with Tom Kirk, but you have to enter the portal first.
Bob - "Luke. Hey, this is Bob. Bob Nicolls! What are you doing right now?"

Luke - "Standing here in Lorenzo talking with Coach Cael. Who is this again?"

Bob - "Bob Nicolls. An Iowa wrestling friend. I was wondering if you'd be interested in wrestling for Iowa. I have the means to make it very lucrative for you!"

Luke - "Mr. Nicolls, hold on a second. Coach Cael would like to talk to you."

From the school with unparalleled integrity in compliance …

This is under the category of you can’t make this stuff up…Michigan, the team who sends out an illegal scout to film opposing teams complains about Iowa doing something shady…so Iowa takes a hit and Mycheatyetagain keeps their Natty! So hypocritical and ironic, the NCAA world we live in.

Maybe TnT should consider hiring Kirk to replace Bobby as the Iowa recruiting phone call team leader!

Not to digress, but Kirk is upset bc Iowa has been open and honest during the investigation and is being sanctioned. Lack of openness and honesty is what got them investigated. They cheated!

Maybe I wasn’t clear. I totally agree Iowa is guilty and should have consequences, but to have Michigan cheat in their own fashion and not have equal ramifications is beyond hypocritical and outrageous!

That gave me a flashback to something I hadn't thought about in decades. Through 1977, the U.S. Tennis Open was played in Forest Hills, Queens. I knew someone who was adamant it was played in Forest Hills, the Pittsburgh suburb. They were shocked when they were finally convinced the tournament was played in a different Forest Hills, and that another Forest Hills even existed.
I was in the Green lawn and garden industry and was calling on a large greenhouse operation along the Ohio/ West Virginia border during the 1984 Olympics held in Athens, Greece. Ohio University is located in Athens Ohio and I’d just made a sales call and we were discussing the Games. A worker overheard us and mentioned that he’d just came from Athens (Ohio) and couldn’t believe the heavy traffic. He went about his way and I asked the owner to clarify what we just heard. He said that the guy thought the Games were being held locally. The owner explained, ‘Clem don’t get out much’.
True story.

Apparently Clem wasn’t the only one who didn’t get out much.

Ben Askren did a video on Brands and said one of his big issues is that Brands has a communication problem. Yeah, if you ever get into a situation where you are screaming at a top recruit’s mom, for any reason, maybe you have a problem.
