That's what I'm saying. Like why did I have to watch 3-2, 5-2 matches all season when he can pile on points like this.
I believe he's either fluent in or learning sign language and a decent guitar player as well. He's like a renaissance man.
I was thinking he let it fly because he's so familiar with Lee. He's more cautious when he's not sure about his opponent.
Pretty well said.
They don't put the brackets up until after weigh ins 2 hours before start. The number of guys changing weight last minute or not showing up below Sr. level is a lot more than you'd expect.
I feel terrible for Spencer Lee. I do think his dad making the statement came off as weird. He must be like a 23 year old man. Jack Elway even learned to shut up at some point.
Problem is that there are a lot of folks on Team Spencer with interests beyond “Just do your best”. Tail has wagged the dog for a decade now.
When you can’t produce publicity through accomplishment, then produce publicity through victimhood?
I also feel terrible for Spencer.
I had the same reaction- I kinda like the no OT/criteria- and said to myself- I thought I understood how this worked. Perhaps I need re-evaluate my thoughts on criteria...
Yes, he signed with my wife a bit (she can hear but knows sign language fluently and she saw a tattoo on his arm that has his name spelled in signs) and we listened to him play piano and sign worship songs at breakfast. Incredibly talented in a lot of areas!
“He is physically unable to interview at this time. He just physically cannot interview.”
Doesn't like tough interviews.
"And now it's time for him to step away, to get fully healthy, to get 100% physically healthy, so he can chase his dreams of interviewing at the Olympic Trials."
Someone brought up a good point on Facebook about this approach. Many fans want him to be the next coach, but he’s 24-25 and still has Dad providing cover for him whenever anything gets tough?
That was probably set up in a hospitality suite at the hotel where the event is being held. Just a guess. I'm sitting here in Erie.
That was funny.
Does the release say whether Iowa being too dangerous played a factor in the decision?
What makes anyone think he can coach? Yes Gable and Sanderson were/are great, but how do we know any young guy is a coach in the making, let alone an all time great coach?
We didn't really expect Pyles to sniff jocks from some remote location, did we?
Good question! I thought the Nicky Nails saga was way overdrawn, but, this Lee thing is possibly worse. It’s probably another manifestation of societies insatiable desire for extraneous information. I ask only: isn’t the wrestling action good enough?
But Spencer already had an interview telling the world what a victim his mother is. We needed the husband's perspective.I missed Mr. Starrocci’s interview about Carter’s knee. Just when I thought I couldn’t be more done with Spencer Lee, the whole family is like
At first I laughed at it all, but if we are down to @Cstroke formulating a cogent response for team Spencer, there must be something VERY wrong.
Then he should have the required gear to do an interview, if that’s the case. It is a really bad look for a sponsor to have one of your athletes need a parent to do the interview. This takes helicopter parenting to a brand new level. Breaking the glasses was a spontaneous reaction. This was planned and they had time to realize how sad it looks to have a parent do the interview
Nick was ready to go, They did a “first call” for Spencer since he wasn’t there. Then someone off camera said SL WD’d, and you could tell by the look on Nick’s face he was shocked.
Yeah, but they sort of have developed a certain image for Spencer. Rudis gear tied to the circumstances seems not to comport with that image. I think Rudis wants positive brand recognition associated wins (not negative from losses or withdrawals).
