2017 World Championships Thread

Going to be an enduring mystery how Gilman can brain fart in a very important match against a guy not on his level, Cruz, and then run a streak like he just did against so many guys who most figured were a tier above.
 
Cox with a TD early in second period to go up 3-0 in Bronze match against Ganev (BUL), first point coming off shot clock, I think.
Another TD, Ganev not in Cox's class.
Cox gets a leg and pulls Ganev out of bounds, 6-0.
Go behind now, 8-0. And that's it, Cox gets the Bronze.
 
I guess Cox reads Twitter between matches. Said this straight into the camera.
 
Gwiz with a leg, converts, up 3-0 at break over Mongolia for Bronze.
Gwiz controlling, MGL doesn't want to shoot or do anything really besides defend shots.
Gwiz on clock now because why not.
Gwiz with the Nick Nevills brand snatch single, converts to go up 5-1.
And that's it, it ends 5-1, Gwiz takes Bronze.

A Silver and two Bronzes not bad on day one, two first time medalists.
 
How was it lame? He can't voice his opinion because why? That's what's wrong with the hurt. Everyone gets butt hurt over the littlest things. He stated how he felt and he has to apologize for it because a couple people got upset about it? Nope. Sorry.
Just trying to be consistent. We'd hammer guys from other teams saying the same thing if David was in JDen's position.

DT's my boy, but he done effed up here.
 
Does DT congratulate cox now?
Pretty proud of the way this board handled this situation. It was cut and dry bad sportsmanship on DTs part. On FLO people were jumping to his defense. There are no excuses here. DT is a grown up I feel it's in his best interest that the people who look up to him demand that he act like one. If he thinks J'den sucks he should prove it.

Three medals with most of our best yet to come. Cannot wait to see Zain in this tournament!
 
Im cool with what DT said. His blood is obviously still boiling from the contoversial loss. But there is no way he can congratulate Cox now without sounding fake. This will just make it sweeter when he breaks through to make the team next time

IMO great tactical match by Cruz. Basically the gist was keep it close early and not get into too deep of a hole. It gets late in a tight match things slow down. Cruz is pretty elite athletically and came out on top in a scramble to win it. Can happen to anyone. Most times it doesn't work out, but this time it did. Bad timing for Gilman.

Me too, for a different reason. Cox is already a bronze medalist. Those defending him from the higher standard needed to win gold are not doing him any favors.

IMO Taylor's sin was saying it himself, not letting coaches or a surrogate say it.

now that was a well done throw of your coach....not planned or scripted at all!
 
Petriashvelli would've killed Terry Brands with that throw at the end.

What does any of this have to do with J'den Cox? A wrestler whose name is synonymous with the team and coaches at PSU just acted like Justin Bieber on a bad day. That is the issue.
 
After receiving a "Sandusky Shut-up Award" a few weeks ago, I followed it up with a new up and coming, yet-to-be-named-by-Jefe, award today:
