Back to wrestling...
Sinclair and Seidel into the semis is literally the best start we could have asked for. Both had their toughest challenge of the tournament in their quarter.
I was worried about Seidel as he's a huge weight cutter. But alas, I had no reason to fear. Team USA looking great boys!!!!

I've done every match for 5 days and you assumed I was going to skip two of them? I posted Seidel and Ono/Brooks pbp first since they were quick and not a lot of typos. I had Graber's pin and Sinclair win on the same post since it was the same mat with a focus on Sinclair's since that was the obvious big match up. I'm sorry I'm not as fast as you wanted. I've asked in the past for a pbp thread and a separate reaction/discussion thread so there wouldn't be spoilers but it's not my board or team.
I am sorry I got pissed off but 5 days of early mornings has me at a lack of sleep grumpiness.
I think EVERYONE appreciates your play by play. You just need to ease up on the sensitivity and realize other people are going to post reactions when they wish. If I missed the match, even is I see a result, I'm going to go back and see the play by play to see how the result occurred.
@Coastal2 see above.
We've been doing this on the board for years. There are those of us that actually like to talk throughout, and not necessarily do the pbp. It makes the board a lot more fun. Your pbp is welcome and appreciated. Just don't expect everyone NOT to post. Whether that's the ending or a comment.
I'll be on tomorrow. and I can promise you, i will be commenting, including posting reactions to just the wins/losses. The people who want pbp and don't want anything to be spoiled understand what's going on here and none are offended.
I understand what you're saying. When there are multiple matches going on at the same time, I'm sure it's hard to post multiple pbp's at the same time. Of course there's going to be real-time reactions on this forum to the action that's just taken place. Perhaps you could ask ZZ if he can handle a pbp of a match while you do another when there are simultaneous matches going on? Kinda similar to how Greg and Pete piggyback off each other and help each other out with their pbp during Folk season.
Obviously everyone here enjoys both what you and ZZ bring to the table! I know I do...
Watched this match just before I left for work with the wife.
KAZ wrestler wanted coach to challenge the last call. Coach literally was like, "nah bruh, you got teched" and refused. Wrestler threw a complete fit.
Wife: "we all just watched him get teched. Why not try harder during the match? What a btch."
I know Tom just posted the whole match above, but here’s the two Seidel vs Khateri sequences I was talking about earlier:
Seidel and Sinclair will be up in matches 4 and 5 on Mat B.
LET'S GO USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET'S GO USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I could get used to hearing that starting in November.
There is no way to resolve the “pbp vs no spoilers” disagreement.
My $.02 is the guys who do pbp are doing us a tremendous service, even when we too are watching the matches in real time or have seen a replay. The guys who post comments during a match are just doing one of the things normal posters do on a message board.
If you’re a poster who can’t bear to see spoilers, either wait until you’ve watched the replay of the match or, if you chose to visit the board, identify who’s doing pbp postings for the day and concentrate on reading their posts only, skipping the individual match time commentary.
Seidel is next level. He looks phenomenal! As was mentioned, the young talent at and around that weight is insane!
Japanese gassing!! Sinclair coming back - 6-5!!!!!
I'll offer up a spoiler solution. Put everyone on ignore but Coastal2, problem solved!
ATTABOY SINCLAIR!!!!!! 7-6 WIN!!!!!!
AMERICAN GAS TANK BABY!
AMERICAN GAS TANK BABY!
Yeah, buddy! Sinclair as fine a young man as I have come across.
Hey! Don't spend your first day of retirement trying to get banned for posting spoilers. What will you do with all that time off and no message board access?!
I just woke up from a nap.
I have solution to the spoiler/no spoiler issue. I'll make a pbp post for every matchup before the round even begins and just edit them in order. People can say anything they want since it will show after an uninterupted string of pbp for those who want that.

Leydecker vs Kozuka Japan 55kg Gold match
Leydecker and Kozuka start slow. Kozuka on a low double Leydecker long scramble but eventually gives up an exsposure. Kozuka low double and another really long scramble to nothing. Leydecker with a front headlock pushing for a step out and finally gets it. 2-1 Japan. 2-1 Kozuka at the break.
2nd.
Leydecker catches the low double and works for a TD and then lace exposure and keeps Kozuka on her back. 5-2 Leydecker settles chin to chest, now chinning the shoulder. Keeping her on her back for over a minute. and a fall with :45 left. Leydecker wins gold.
Kozuka hit a really good low double twice in the 1st. Don't know if she was coached at the break or did it herself but she was waiting on the low double early in the 2nd.
