How wild would it be if I was like, a well-known D1 or RTC coach?
I saw Goodale tweeted "Boom!!! Bitch", and I'm at least partially a Rutgers fan, now.

Goodale is such a clown - like someone who calls into Angelo Cataldi’s show on WIP
Thanks for the updates last night, Tikk. Was sneaking peaks while visiting with my family, very close to the radio show's favorite questioner, Allen, from Boalsburg.
I thought it was well known on here.So you profile name is just lying to us? You aren’t really in TN?
Originally from PA. Was in TN, when I started the account. Now moved back to PA.
I knew, hence the smiley face. Just taking the chance for a weak joke. All good.
I will be in Nashville tomorrow, can I temporarily change my handle?
Thankfully no Thomas Gilman on team USA this year. Ironically the same personality traits that lead him to shoot his mouth off also lead to this defeat.
i just love jb. his kids on the stage was awesome. golly gee, thank goodness i don't have to root for gooberman.
We now have the USA team, except for 79kg, which will be contested later. Every one, as soon as they don the red, white, and blue, get my cheers.
Last year, the USA finished 2nd in men's freestyle, were not on the map in men's Greco (other than an Adam Coon 2nd), and 3rd in women's freestyle. We'll see how 2019 unfolds … in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, September 14-22.

How does this years USA team compare to Russia and Iran in FS now that our team is basically Complete? Gonna need Fix, Graff, Downey, and Gwiz to exceed expectations/ranking if we want to challenge at all IMO.
Has anyone told Borat our women’s team will be comprised of more than 5?
Good question. Was asking myself the same thing when I posted.
My take on the landscape, big picture, is that, while we're competitive, and improving, wrestling is at or near the top of some of these country's national sports, and we've seen that they'll do anything to win
. Except for the superstars, the names of their athletes change, and there's not a huge drop off in talent. Without knowing a weight-by-weight break down, a finish like 2018 could be a good result, as we're missing one of our superstars.
I think we might see some fireworks out of Daton at Worlds. When he was winning the age level tourneys, that trap arm gut and inside trip were both VERY effective. Sometimes the style matchups mean guys struggle more domestically than internationally. I guess we’ll see if he can roll up senior level grown men or not. He didn’t make his team last year, but my money is on Takatani from Japan who could take Gilman down at will in their 2017 final.
Borat is also a mediocre wrestler in his own right. If I knew how to post a video, i would put up the hotel room wrestling match. One of the funniest scenes ever.
They’re wrestling Match 2 over and if necessary Match 3 at Final X-Benton. The undercard will include Carton vs Pletcher, Andrew Alton vs Sleepy Grajales , Toadrank vs Dylan Ness, and Deuce Rachal vs Mocco.
What # mat is Carton/Pletcher? Also....the Duece match is over.....he self pinned on his couch at home.
Special Grudge Match- Terry Brands vs Gunning's Dad
I hope Fix improves his style. Honestly, my sourness is mostly from the embarrassing match he and John Smith put together in the national finals this year.
Agreed it was bad. Daton tech’d everybody in his last Junior Worlds, gave up a single point. There’s hope.
Plus, Daton is a much more dynamic freestyler. His par terre game is excellent and he seems to be able to hit his throw-by and inside trip more often in international competition. I’m sure it’s because he is so well scouted domestically and has competed against the same guys so often they know his feel. I think Daton is going to medal actually. Draw dependent obviously but I think he has a great chance.
Have a hard time envisioning that, after watching two years of college wrestling my view is his style will kill the sport. Look forward to when I don’t have to watch him wrestle. Enjoy watching RBY 100 times more
Not a very exciting match...…...but give some credit to Suriano's defense. Except for a brief lapse at the end of Desanto match 1...….pretty amazing D all year from Nick...…..a bit of a snoozer to watch but still....pretty amazing.
Fix/ Suriano is on the complete opposite side of the spectrum of matches that us PSU fans are used to seeing.
Nick’s defense is second to none, i remember reading when he was with us that he hadnt been taken down in HS. I think Gilman was the guy who broke that streak.
I give plenty of credit to Suriano's defense
Doesn't change the fact that Fix took ZERO shots of his own and skated backwards for much of the match
It's really going to "Boom, bitch" for Rutgers this coming season when they get stomped by virtually every D1 team they wrestle.
Hey, Matter! Every time you trash talk Rutgers, I'm going to "Like" that post. It genuinely is a tradition, now, just like Tom's Foley count, and a sign that all is right with the BWI world.

It's not trash talk if it's true.
Then don't read it. This is your 4th post and you're annoyed?
