Ferrari commits to Iowa

Hawk you pick weird stuff to defend and get upset about..
There's plenty to defend but I wouldn't have chosen that one to get my panties in a bunch..
Be more like js and defend the obvious bs, don't try to create something to be upset about.
 
I think you have a habit of telling other people what to think and do. I also think if I respond fairly I shouldn’t be met with bullish replies and schnide remarks. It’s replies like rams that makes having an honest discussion impossible.

Looks like I also mixed a combination of stoicism, pragmatism, and immaturity all in one post.
Guess we know why hawkfan is on this board, he’s looking for a honest discussion, sure can’t have that on HR.

I didn’t think I was defending anything. Just pointing out that the interview BK gave before the senior open was the cause for confusion. Listening to the interview and there is a plausible explanation for fans on GIA thinking he was talking 197 and not 97.

JS would argue about the color of the sky on a cloudless day if he wanted to. I didn’t think I was arguing at all. Ram took his cheap shot and I called him out. End of story in my book.
 
C+ effort imo. And that’s all I do is state my opinion. This is how I see things, think what you want, it’s not going to bother me or my immaturity .
 
I’d say that 83% of Iowa wrestling fans are D bags but that would be giving them to much credit. Everything I said was accurate and I’ll stand by it. Stalling, pushing and choking is who they are right now.
Maybe save it for those that are and not those legitimately engaging in conversation.

Yeah - I’ve gone soft. Can’t imagine how disappointed JTS is with me.

Random logistics question. I see a lot of cross-pollination when visiting here and GIA. Do you busy bees pay a fee to both sites to spar? I joined here and had “insufficient rights” to post, then suddenly was allowed to. Guessing I’m on a short, free trial basis that will expire. If I pay-to-play down the road, does that allow me to joust on GIA, too? I don’t mind a verbal scrap or two, especially all in fun, and especially coming out of the blue-and-white corner.

Uncle Carmine might be disappointed as well..
 
OOpppphhhh.. just saw on the HR that there is a rumor on the Cyclone forum that Real might be transferring to ISU.. I'd be furious if I was an Iowa fan and this is more fall out from the 3 that share the same brain.
RUMOR

LOL
it's being deleted for bad info.. I guess we will see. So unless you are an Iowa student I wouldn't bet on this being true.

You don’t need to pay. The “insufficient rights” thingy was probably just a temporary hold for your user registration to be approved/cleared before you could do anything with it.

Paying to interact with GIA . . . 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😉
 
Do we need to take some kind of wrestling general knowledge test before we talk about the sport on a Web board? Does the general fan knowledge base thing determine any placing? Do you get any extra points at the NCAA championships due to it?
Are you suggesting HR costs Iowa team points at NCAAs?
 
Yes. There is also a Maturity Test.

I’m not 100% certain, but I think you have to pass only one of the two tests, though. In 16+ years of trying, I have yet to pass the MT, but I’m still allowed to post.
Immaturity Test, and congrats!

Ah, great. Yes, "paying" was puzzling to me, and I was hoping I was mistaken. But I still get the "rights" message over there. Guess I'll just wait till they allow me to enter the arena. Thanks!

They've gone on lock down over there since they've banned me. You might be waiting awhile. And if you have an ip address from Western PA you may never enter the arena... :)

Is the Maturity Test...

Physically Mature, ie Old?

Can you just feel old despite being less than 50?

Or Mentally Mature?

New posters seem to have some restrictions on the volume of posts until they figure out that you're not a spammer.
 
I

In my experience the one commenting on the size of someone’s dick is the one with the deficiency.

Sweet burn though bud!
That's like a double negative or something. I wasn't referring to the size of anyone's dick per day just that someone who responded like you did might have a little dick. Lmfao. Get all that

Originally, IIRC (it was someting like 9 yrs ago), the Maturity Test was a measure for 8th graders in certain states (e.g., MN) to gain eligibility to compete in HS state
championship tournaments (hence allowing for the possibility of 5x HS champs). Certain internet personalities (e.g., I) then took the liberty of adopting a similar protocol (whether real or not) for approving internet message board accounts for posting privileges. In the internet version of the model, the primary factor was emotional maturity.

But as @El-Jefe alluded to, it is akin to golf scoring. The lower your score, the better. Hence, people like me have posting privileges free-of-charge.

In Greek mythology the Graeae sisters shared one eye and one tooth. I guess in Roman mythology the Ferrari brothers shared one brain, and not a quality brain either.
