I feel ripped off.

I paid BTN+ 10 bucks and only got about 15 minutes of wrestling for it.
Mine was jumpy the entire match, but I have experienced much worse feeds. I missed how Verk ended up on top with that throw. I had to rewind to it, see that they landed on their sides and Verk seemed to know that position better...or maybe the overs are >> underhooks?

My complaint is flash. It's OLD technology at the end of it's useful lifecycle. Time for BTN to move past it.

To clarify. I was joking. The VIDEO feed worked fine. The audio was hit and miss. But with nearly every match ending in the 1st period there wasn't much actual wrestling to be seen.

I hate to say it, and it won't give you 100% coverage, but for the equivalent of $12.50/mo. FloPro is the better buy. I can't justify $300 a year for both, but Flo has a great library of videos, you get all the rankings, and this match is already posted for replay. I'm still searching for Nolf's ball smashing cradle but I suspect it's out there too.

Even though they reel me in from time to time on this board, I don't mind helping put food on the table for Willie, CP and crew. They give PSU a lot of coverage in print, audio and video. The video was bad 2-3 years ago, but I have had zero problems since. Give yourself an early Christmas present and subscribe.

This is a year you will not want to miss another minute. Also go out and get BTN2Go. It's a free app for your phone.

That too provides far from 100% converage, but between that, Flo, and Lionvision you'll only have to 'listen' to about 5 matches per year.

I know I will get a lot less, but I will only have BTN+ for about 4 months, so only $40 versus the $150, and I know, I am cheap!

Also, it is easier to get 10 a month for 4 months past the CFO, versus $150 all at once!
 
I try not to read much into celebrations but I was impressed that RBY kept his Rec Hall debut win in perspective. Even if Rooney was one of Kent State's better wrestlers, he's still the type of wrestler you have to easily handle if you're going to be in the AA conversation. He got off the mat like he'd been there before, even though it was probably a dream come true he'd been waiting forever for.

This^^^. My first thought as well. He acted like “no big deal....it’s expected of me.” I loved it.
 
Was happy to see how RBY and Verk wrestled in their first matches. You can definitely tell Verk is comfortable in odd positions with all his FS experience. Will be fun watching him progress over his career. Only one I expected to see in the bleachers with the team but didn't was Teasdale.

I thought winning by fall in your Rec Hall debut might be pretty rare. Then I looked back through the last few years and found Keener and Cortez both won their debuts by fall, if I'm not mistaken,
The only thing more intense than a wrestling mom is a wrestling grandma.

Dont let the grey hair fool you, they know their rasslin.
As the son-in-law of a great, retired coach, and having sat beside my mother-in-law watching my son wrestle, don't I know it!

That should tell you something.
 
Not sure what to make of Teasdale not being in stands, but the winner of the wrestle off between Devin and Gavin wrestled yesterday.

Teasdale and Schnupp wrestled off?? That doesnt align with anything Cael said on media day about how he was handling 125.
