Really no point in worrying about Dean or RBY qualifying. With no eligibility left can’t use a red shirt of any sort.I have 8 members of the 2022-2023 lineup qualified. All 7 top three finishers at NCAAs and Facundo has a couple of cadet world medals.
Dean made the U23 world team but I can’t find any info on medaling at U23, U20 or U17s. Anyone know?
You beat me to it. I was revising it once I realized it was only redshirt qualificationReally no point in worrying about Dean or RBY qualifying. With no eligibility left can’t use a red shirt of any sort.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZDoes it catch anyone else’s attention that wrestling has an old stigma/perception of being a ‘dummy’ sport . . . and then it doesn’t really do itself any favors when the lead organization in the country fails elementary exercises in grammar?
Dear USA Wrestling,
Joey created one list of six criteria.
Bobby aims to meet at least four of the criteria on the list.
Rupert is smart and knows he needs to meet only one criterion on the list of criteria.
Singular, criterion. Plural, criteria.

I don't think that error is terribly egregious, but I cringe when I see news stories written by supposed professional writers and supposedly reviewed by professional editors that have lines like these:Does it catch anyone else’s attention that wrestling has an old stigma/perception of being a ‘dummy’ sport . . . and then it doesn’t really do itself any favors when the lead organization in the country fails elementary exercises in grammar?

I noticed the same thing.

This has been EXACTLY the same point I've been making...something you don't agree with is posted and 29 of you pile on and call people names.

My theory is that they are so desperate to be "one of the gang" that as soon as one of their "leaders" shoots out a hate post, they all pile on mindlessly. Think for yourself.I think this time it was just in good fun. Don't take it personally. (I actually learned something new about criteria vs criterion. So thank you for that.)
You forgot me, make it an even 30.This has been EXACTLY the same point I've been making...something you don't agree with is posted and 29 of you pile on and call people names.

Yah, it's hard to tell sometimes jackass.@Cali_Nittany — I’ll feel bad if there is a misunderstanding, so just wanted to point out that my responses were a joke. I withheld the 😉 for effect.
Not necessarily a party, but he was fun to hang out with in NYC for Nationals. He only corrected my grammar once.I bet you are a lot of fun at parties.

You fooled me too many times I NEVER take you seriously now.For the record, I have to say I am a wee bit disappointed that only @jayridescarbon seems to have picked up on the stunt I was pulling. This board is usually as sharp as a knife (even if its grammar is less than perfect 😉).
