    About time for this...

    I used to be a statistics fanatic, but I have gotten lazy and apathetic in my old age. I would have loved to have all the info/stats that are available now on the internet to work with. Maybe they were, I just didn't know how to access them. I would come home from the NCAA Tournament every year...

    About time for this...

    This reminded me I forgot two very important family members, pictured below. They take up more of my time than anything other than the internet, I'm both proud and ashamed to say. They're working on their Greco skills in this photo. Oh, and I, also, have a penchant for firearms.

    No, I'm retired, but never was in Law Enforcement of any kind. This world has changed so much. Everyone is paranoid. Over a hundred people have seen this and no one has shared.

    U23 Nationals

    Not really, Whitmer had heart. Pretty sure Spooner's "example" was sarcasm.

    About time for this...

    OK, since the talk here has turned to Pork Butts and stew, we're in the off-season (as if that really matters) so it's time for an off-topic thread. And since this is the only board I post on anymore (and I don't even know where to find the OT board), I'm posting this here. A few years ago, I...

    You know the rules. Where are the pictures? If she can't cook, she must be hot

    Who's going to Pan-Ams?

    He's 24. I told him D1 was probably out of the question. ICCC had been in touch with him, and I told him Grand View might be worth looking into. I said D3 might even be a possibility, Coe, Wartburg, etc. Edit; I don't know why you have to click on it to see the whole picture. Ugh

    Who's going to Pan-Ams?

    Maybe nobody cares, but I enjoyed it. 29 Medals; 25 Gold, 3 Silver, 1 Bronze is a good outing, no matter the competition. I didn't see as much of Sunday's wrestling as I'd like to have, because I was coaching Nicaragua's only qualifier. He asked me Thursday because his National Coach switched...

    Who's going to Pan-Ams?

    Then, Kylie knocked off the reigning World Champ by fall in the finals! Pretty sparse and disappointing. At least there was a little noise for the former/current Iowa wrestlers. It was another good day overall. USA lost two matches all day.

    Who's going to Pan-Ams?

    I know it was a Thursday, and I know it was Greco, but attendance today was really bad. Other than teams sitting in the stands, I doubt there were a hundred paying customers. Less than 35 people were in the stands during awards, which is nothing new. I've seen three times as many people at a 1A...

    Who's going to Pan-Ams?

    Wow! It's worse than I thought. So much for Wrestletown USA. I realize the competition might only be slightly better than the SS, but come on. UWW is going to stop awarding events to Coralville.

    Who's going to Pan-Ams?

    Last I looked they hadn't sold very many tickets. My son and I will be parked at Xtream for the next four days, and a friend with us for three of them. Disappointed that we're not seeing Kennedy or Spencer, but looking forward to some good wrestling.

    I did, but didn't recognize them. No Iowa coaches.

    Senior Men US Open

    If he got the step-out it would have been 5-0 instead of 4-1, and the final headlock would have only made it 5-4 Lee. because it would have been stopped with the step-out and Lilledahl wouldn't have gotten that first point. Edit: I guess I typed slower.

    Portal April 1st

    Thank you for looking up actual numbers, 98lber. I was wondering if my memory was serving me correctly. More than doubling in four years is a substantial raise in my books, regardless of the actual yearly percentage. of course, 2021-25 inflation overall was more than ridiculous. For a guy who...
