Intriguing match-ups this weekend

Well all I can say is the problem Ad has is that he needs help just like with the problem Teasdale has they need the support of team mates and coaches around them...AD needs guys like Lee and a few other to try to be of help.
Do you all really feel because of his illness he should be not able or allowed to wrestle?
What illness? He stated he is not autistic. Hope all kids get the help they need but not ethical to enable!

I’m too lazy to check. Are you the guy who made other guys feel smart and/or sober recently? ;) #Boomhauer

Huh? I was responding to an HR poster that is excusing DeSanto’s behavior due to an illness/medical issue. HR has taken a position that echos a rumor on this board last year that he was autistic which he later stated he is not, If I remember correctly . I was a huge fan of his up until the Micic situation and how he disrespected his Drexel coach and attempted to injure his opponent. Allowing this type of behavior in today’s environment is enabling and I believe that it is unethical. So does this help sober you up?

Fair enough. I was just good-naturedly busting your balls because I could not understand your sentence on my screen. Upon further examination, the main culprit seems to be a missing verb and a letter substitution, the substitution perhaps due to autocorrect or something very weird and random. No biggie! :)

DeSanto looks really good this year. Suriano could be in trouble if he decides he’s not going to actually wrestle tonight. If he turtles up, which he likes to do against the top guys, he might not make it out of Carver with the W.

Michigan at Michigan State (on Flo)

Does MSU always wrestle at home on that elevated stage? Pretty cool.

125 -- Drew Mattin (#11) out sick. Rayvon Foley (#8) beating up on Mich backup (Assad). Wins by MD 10-2.
133 -- Quick pin by Micic, newly ranked #1 with Gross out for the season
141 -- Kanen Storr (#5) beats overmatched MSU guy 12-7. Pulled away in P3.
149 -- Lamantia in for Malik Amine. Beats MSU's Jaden Enriquez 13-5
157 -- Alec Pantaleo (#11) beats MSU's Jake Tucker 12-3
165 -- Massa beats MSU's Richie 20-8 (I think)
174 -- Miles Amine (#3) beats MSU's Drew Hughes in close match 5-3
184 -- Cameron Caffey (#20) with P1 fall over Michigan's Correll
197 -- Michigan's Striggow over MSU's Wilton 7-6 due to riding time -- WOW, Wilton put Striggow on his back with 2 seconds left to nearly steal it with a fall.
285 -- Mason Parris (#7) over MSU's Chase Beard 5-3 (Beard moves pretty well for having quite the beer gut, almost put Parris on his back during some scrambles )

FINAL:
MICHIGAN 30
MICHIGAN STATE 10

I’m not sure what anyone has seen in DeSanto that makes them think he is going to beat Suriano.

Tonight's match is on BTN at 9. Guessing everyone knows that, but posting in case anyone didn't know. Siap.
 
I would genuinely be surprised if Desanto can handle NS's defense, and general pressure--but I didn't give him much chance against Spencer that one time either. I just hope they can wrestle a clean bout. I predict more points than last week's "big match."
 
Impressive “Iowa Style” win there for AD. NS looks uninspired, Always thought his tight wind might end up being a liability.

Suriano won't have to shoot because DeSanto shoots non-stop. AD is tailor-made for NS. When Suriano isnt scoring off go-behinds, he'll be causing AD to lose his mind with his perceived "stalling". I'd say a DeSanto DQ is more likely than a DeSanto decision.

I stand corrected...great job, DeSanto!

Props to DeSanto, thought it was over after first takedown for Suriano.
Meh, strategy by Suriano is weak at best. He has more than enough talent and needs more neutral offense. Should have recognized keeping DeSanto down was going to be difficult and with a stalling call behind him he should have cut him earlier. Preserve a point by giving up a point and attack from the feet.

Nick is a better wrestler. They don’t always win.
