2024 Olympic Trials match and discussion thread
- Thread starter backdrft76
- Start date
It's the very first box on the app.
How about some damn mat assignments so I don't need to search through the mat streams.
Mendez has looked great but I think Zain is a horrible matchup for him if the weight cut hasn’t killed Zain. Mendez bullies most everyone but Zain is the ultimate bully. I really hope Zain can handle the cut because he looked so good at worlds last year. I also think he can qualify the weight. As much as I love Nick Lee I’m not sure I feel the same about his prospects
Nah, if that's what you're getting, God bless ya. I had the Quad box this morning, but not this evening.
Okay, Lee is up on mat 2, supposedly, Zain is on mat 3, but I didn't think he was wrestling until tomorrow.
Guess it's too much for the idiots at NBC to put up for 4 mats. Got to go to multiple places.
Worth the wait for Nick Lee and Zain! Great matches.

those were great matches, Mendez is really good
That’s awesome! Both guys pulled it off. So happy for them. I do feel for Alirez. I’ve known their family since I was like 12. Used to wrestle Andrews dad in high school Would’ve been cool to see him qualify but I also love Lee and Zain. Who do you guys have winning that one? What a tournament for s as Mendez as well!
Gilman, Lee, Zain. Order restored.
Alirez is also. I'll guess those 2 are in the finals next year. Assuming both at 141.
It's precisely why I posted earlier this morning to go into the sports area. Apps fk up a lot of folks.
Let’s Go!! Zain/Nick Lee for the Olympic spot!
Please let Nolf take out JB!
Please let Nolf take out JB!
Beau was a changed rule and 8 seconds from beating Mendez. Not so fast my friend.
The funny part is I watched all morning on the app and found the quad. Then this evening on Roku I didn’t think to just do the same steps to get it.
In my defense I’m an idiot.
Have you ever seen the movie "Twins"? 😀
