For what it's worth, as an Iowa fan, I don't post a lot, but spend a lot of time reading the various wrestling boards and think the BWI board is well done. Love the daily articles posts and the insight from PA fans. That said, I just wanted to point out that the "Iowa Poll" about pushing and such, while all in good fun, was originally published by a guy that goes by the handle Conquistadors, who posted a reply on Foleys Mail Bag today (Intermat) where he compared Iowa to Brownshirt Nazi's. While his obvious ignorance is evident, I think it's important to point out that these are college kids representing our various schools, some of which probably came close to going to any number of top programs and could have just as easily been someone we cheer for as cheer against. Don't like the stash, well I don't like some of his antics either, but either way, there are a lot more kids that we can be proud of than not, on all teams. I just hate to see someone like this poster play on the worst of wrestling fans. It's easy to compare a kid to a Nazi on a message board, he's obviously not a wrestler as wrestlers are not cowards like that.
