Australia supported some of the most draconian and stupid Covid policies and deported Djokovic last year because he refused to be vaccinated. New York was even worse by failing to let him enter even though he had Covid and had natural immunity. His principles were particularly admirable because he is in his mid-thirties and doesn't have many years left to play at the top. The disgusting treatment of Djokovic by tennis authorities provides a good window into Left wing extremism and authoritarianism. The long article cited below shows what a decent human being and competitor Djokovic is.

Here is a summary of part of what happened to him: "
In a statement before the 2023 tournament, Djokovic added:

‘What happened to me 12 months ago was not easy for me or my family or team. It was disappointing to leave the country like that but I was really hoping to get permission to play back in Australia. It’s a country where I have had tremendous support. I have always played my best tennis here.
‘Melbourne is close to my heart. What happened was not easy for me to digest, but I had to move on and those circumstances will not replace what I have had in Melbourne and Australia. So I come in with positive emotions.’

Novak was treated like a criminal, deported, and denied the chance to defend his points. Like so many of us, Covid bigotry and fear-mongering saw him robbed of his employment. His win was not only for himself – it is a win for everyone: the persecuted, the coerced, and the concerned. It gives us hope that in the end, the universe corrects the balance." https://www.spectator.com.au/2023/01/novak-djokovic-this-trophy-is-yours-as-much-as-it-is-mine/

Good evening Nittany Nation,

We'll have content covering Penn State's junior day from Saturday over the next few days but wanted to get this FutureCast in.

After talking to sources familiar with the recruitment of four-star defensive back Kenneth Woseley, Nittany Nation has put in a FutureCast for the Imhotep Charter standout to land with the Nittany Lions. The Nittany Lions felt they were in a good spot for Woseley coming into the weekend and now, coming out of Saturday, it appears they have only extended their lead in his recruitment. While we don't expect any decision out of Woseley in the imminent, it also doesn't seem like it could take much for this one to get past the finished line for the Nittany Lions.

Woseley has amassed over 20 offers in his recruitment and is a top-200 player in the nation according to Rivals, coming in 189th in the Rivals 2024 rankings. He's also Pennsylvania's seventh-best prospect and the 16th-best cornerback in the state.

Recent visitor and no. 77 overall in the 2025 class, OL Jaelyne Matthews is set to commit tomorrow at 11am and I REALLY LIKE Penn State’s chances 😉

What a fvcking nutjob

Heard about this last night, but the only reporting I've seen of it on the world stage is the BBC:

Iran 'foils drone attack' on military facility in Isfahan

Here are some tweets from last night:

This is the sort of thing that frustrates me with police in general- It’s a drunk kid, just take him where he’s staying and be done with it you clowns. Yeah, it’s on him, but a lot of people have drank too much at one point. He didn’t hurt anyone.

I'll go on record and predict PSU will not make the NCAA tournament if they lose today.

ESPN gives PSU a 73% win probability. I'm not as confident. PSU has some nice players and the game is at home. Unfortunately we have nobody to contend with Dickinson.

Whatever happened to this kid. He was being recruited by many top schools but I don’t see him committed anywhere. What is the inside story?

A portion of the interview. This is the person the Dems chose to lead the impeachment effort in a party that claims it wants to protect democracy.

BASH: Well, let me give you another. He says that this is part of the pattern. Ahead of the first Trump impeachment, you said the committee had not spoken to a whistle-blower. In fact, that turned out not to be true.
You know “The Washington Post” said so in their fact-check.
SCHIFF: “The Washington Post” identified that, yes, before the person became a whistle-blower, they sought advice from the committee.
When I was asked the question, I thought they were referring to whether we had brought the whistle-blower in. And I should have been more clear in my answer.

Many PSU guys competing today. Biggest result is Ty Kasak losing 5-3 to All-American CJ Composto who is taking a greyshirt this season at UPENN.

Harvey (MD DE)
Martin (PA RB/ATH)

Regarding Martin, if you have not seen the recent interview with Speca on the other site it's work a listen. Speca said Martin is his best friend and went to great lengths about how big Martin is and the number of positions that Martin could play at a high level.

Copied from the introductory post last year:

We can be assured there will be ugliness on the boards over the next several days as the big PSU vs Iowa dual comes and goes. But we can also do some good with our fanaticism and prognostications . . .

Wresting for Life could use our dollars, and it is a great cause. If you like putting your money where your mouth is and would like to do so on predicted outcomes in the PSU vs Iowa dual, let’s try doing so here with proceeds going to Wrestling for Life.

We can be rivals and work together at the same time.


I think we raised close to $800 between the 2 boards in 2022. Let’s try it again this week and aim to break $1k.

@ your favorite (or least favorite) rivals and shake hands on a bet regarding this week’s big dual, with proceeds donated directly to WFL by the losing participant (or by both participants, as happens on occasion) via the weblink provided above (from the main menu, click Donate, then Your Gift, and continue from there). Post receipts in this thread next week!

With a P/E of 21, the stock is beginning to look interesting.

The agents got metals instead of indictments…DOJ was led by Bill Barr.

Important thing to note: Weaver was entrapped by a federal operative to saw off the shotgun in the first place. Trying to feed his family. So many of the people responsible for this are still suckling at the tax payer’s tit. I only hope they have some sense of shame, and come clean. It’s America or global slavery, bros. Please see it.
