Just got a voice message saying that Spectrum is going to discontinue my 50% discount any call this number to learn more.

But I do not have and never had Spectrum so I know it is a scam.

Sickening how they do this. More sickening they are never charged and prosecuted.

Just wanted people to be aware of their scams and be careful. Even if you have Spectrum and get this call, don’t respond. Go separately to Spectrum’s website or call them using a number you trust.

Same if you get a similar message for any other company or service. Including donations during upcoming elections.

Meme Idea

I don't have the skills to put it together but I would love to see a meme of Brock Hardy in his now infamous spladle pose with the caption "Potentially Dangerous." I love Brock. He is a good kid I have know since he was a little bitty kid rolling around. Heck of a good family. But the combination of the earlier comment about being "potentially dangerous" and then the spladle giving the world a view of his junk even his wife has rarely seen is just too much to resist. Brock coming back for 5th is no slouch.

The Cael Secret

I really think this weekend revealed the secret of how and why Penn State wrestling is the greatest dynasty in sports history. I think that secret was revealed, not in the four champions, but in the 6 wrestlers who did NOT win. It's about the approach and how every single wrestler on that roster has the EXACT same frame of mind and philosophy, and about how they all, to a man, live that philosophy day in and day out.

Notice how Mitch and Beau handled absolutely heartbreaking finals losses in which they both should have won, one losing on a counter, the other by a referee failing to make a call, combined with falling to far behind a great opponent who had 5 years experience advantage on him. Notice their x posts today. Notice Tyler Kasak, shattered dreams on a total fluke loss, who instead made history winning 7 straight matches. Notice Davis, Nagao and Truax, all there to support their teammates Saturday night. Truax, who took 5th place on one leg from a cheap dirty move by a cheaper program, but never whispering a complaint.

They aren't like the other wrestlers. They don't live and die with it. They have fun. They never, I mean NEVER freeze. They don't fold from the lights. Yet, they have different personalities. Unlike Iowa, they are allowed to be themselves. Aaron is unlike Carter, Mitchell is slightly eccentric, Tyler is heartfelt, Braedyn is stoic, Kerk is deeply faith conscious, before them....our guys in the past also various types 😂.

By teaching that it's not about winning, the irony of course, is that, winning is all we do.

Mat Scouts has Penn State at 170 Points

His analysis is summarized along with the other D1 top 20s. With a projected 9 AAs there is still room for improvement. We live in the greatest time ever to be PSU wrestling fans. His 57 minute TFW Crystal Ball goes into very convincing detail. I'm just grateful that Noodle Arms convinced my wife that wrestling is fascinating. From there she "adopted" our 133lb flying squirrel and now can't wait for our first 2 4timers. Wonderful Holidays and a great New Year to all on this Board. WE ARE.... BLESSED!

O.T. - the Pittsburgh Penguins have hit rock bottom

Today, the Penguins just blew a 4-0 lead late in the 2nd period and ended up losing to Colorado 5-4. Unbelievable. As bad as they are this year, I didn't think they could blow a 4 goal lead with just a little more than 1 period to play, Sidney Crosby is the only guy that deserves to cash his paycheck. Today he accounted for all 4 Penguin goals; 1 goal, 3 assists.

It's a shame Sid has to end his career playing with these losers. I'm rooting for them to blow their remaining games in order to get a potential high draft pick.

Other Teams You Love

So now that wrestling is over I'm guessing that everybody on here will be leaving the rarest of rarest of rare things a sports fan can experience, a sure thing. It's such a privilege to support a team who even on a down year puts up four individual champs and who has won 11 of 13 titles and seems to be getting stronger. But now it's like the song said, "Back to Life, Back to Reality" and following teams who don't always win. For me it's the Phillies, they've been my favorite sports team all my life. God knows they've been tough to watch but once you pick a team you stick with them. This year they look like they have a good squad and are expected to contend for a title but they're nowhere near a sure thing. I've also been a Manchester City fan since 2006-07 so I've been lucky to support a dominant football (soccer) team as well but they're certainly not guaranteed anything with teams like Liverpool, Arsenal and Real Madrid on the horizon for them.

What team is going to take up your time until the Resilite is rolled out again?

2023-24 Schedule & Video/Audio Streaming Options

Fellow Lion Fans,

The 'off-season' is almost over, and another exciting season of Nittany Lion Wrestling is upon us!!! 😀

Now that the Big Ten has finally gotten around to releasing their schedule, we have a more complete view of PSU's full schedule which can found HERE <== click me

The timings & streams options are still assumptions (as shown by their red text) and will be updated (to green text) once official confirmations are known.

Lastly, ever year that goes by, I strangely get a year older... as does the severity of my cognitive decline: so please be gentle in pointing out any errors that I may have missed in my proof-reading. 🤪

Fight on State... to another National Championship!!!

Film Study - Andy Kotelnicki Sugar Huddles

SUGAR HUDDLE FILM STUDY

See link. We had Codutti unpack Andy Kotelnicki's use of up-tempo 'Sugar Huddles' and how they might be utilized this season with Penn State's personnel (it's an Allar-friendly, TE-friendly wrinkle). Yes, it's gimmicky as hell, which a lot of people will hate...but as far as usage rate and success rate, the Sugar Huddle at Kansas almost mirrors the production Yurcich got from the T Formation (which Penn State fans definitely had a love-hate relationship with).
