Hey Dog it is great to see everything is ok in your life and you were only taking a break. I always appreciated your wit and humor on the board along with some great content! I know some guys can get volatile in their responses and really bust balls, which I believe happened to you.
There are some really great, knowledgeable posters on this board of which I know I can’t hold a candle too. There are former wrestlers that have competed and probably won NCAA championships at PSU, on this board. There are probably PIAA champions, former NCAA and high school coaches as well as club coaches here too. You guys all bring a vast source of knowledge and content to this board, that makes this board first class and very enjoyable. You’re coverage of potential recruits is also second to none. So for all of these attributes and hard work with statistics that you bring, I just want to say thank you!
My last point is about the volatile responses. Some guys can really come off with an, “I’m always right and you’re wrong”, response post. I realize we are all grown men on this board and need to have thicker skin at times but the ‘holier than thou’ attitude some guys have needs to go. I know back when Psalm1 had the thread where guys told who they were, I gave a pretty good synopsis of my life. I’m definitely not the most eloquent writer or the most educated guy on the board. I wrestled up to seventh grade, been a PSU season ticket holder since 2012, but attended matches before seeing guys like Kolat, McCoy and other great wrestlers. I know a fellow poster that doesn't post because of getting blasted, like Dogwelder was on this forum. That shouldn't happen, we can be better! In closing guys I think we could all take a lesson in humility and that starts with me also. We don’t have to look far, because our PSU wrestlers and coaches exhibit it every day. We Are Better!
