You must never make a best-man toast at any wedding!
PSU vs Michigan
- Thread starter creamery freak
- Start date
My wife and I will be celebrating our 44th year in July (or at least I will be). When we were married, my grandmother, who is of Pennsylvania Dutch heritage, gave us a framed needlepoint that says "Kissen don't last, Cookin Do". I'm happy to report that she was wrong. Fortunately, I've become a pretty good cook.
Enoigh of the sentimental crap this is a wrestling forum lol. Just kidding congrats on staying committed that long .I danced with an old lady at my wedding who had been married sixty plus years and asked her what the secret was .she said very simply .compromise .No lie and she's right .My wife and I will be celebrating our 44th year in July (or at least I will be).

Going on my 2nd year of marriage and my wife has finally come around on going to wrestling matches / meets with me, so there's hope?!?!
Congrats to all the happy couples, inspiring stuff!

Roar, any way Androcles can win the Ridge Riley award at the conclusion of Michigan dual match at BJC based on his marital longevity and fan longevity. At least have him share it with Nolf after Jason's win over Pantaleo.
Once you get that co-award down pat, use your Executive Order power to co-award the Hodge with Jason and Bo.
It would be a Win Win

I would love to see Michigan bump up IF RBY doesn't go. That would give Michigan wins at 125 and 133. I think Micic beats Lee at 141. Storr against Berge could be a tossup. Lets just say Storr wins. Michigan would be up 3 matches to none, but then could get shut out the next 7.

Micic is a terrific wrestler and has made himself the odds on favorite at 133. But bumping up, presumably without adding much weight because of descent rules, and beating a top 5ish guy up 8 lbs is no guarantee. Storr isn't beating Berge at 149. Just my opinion.
Except if Storr wins in your scenario, that would be 4 matches to none.
I agree that Micic would likely beat Lee but think Berge would likely beat Storr, but not a given.
Love the sentiment. Him and his lovely wife (significant other!!) will have to settle for hugs from me and Mrs. Roar...assuming we catch them in the expanse of the BJCRoar, any way Androcles can win the Ridge Riley award at the conclusion of Michigan dual match at BJC based on his marital longevity and fan longevity.

29 here.
30 this October for me and Mrs PSUPaul, though I am not sure I would say she has tolerated me for that long!
Autocorrect is the worst! I just noticed that autocorrect changed the title of this thread to “PSU vs Michigan” from the intended “PSU and Matrimony”

I hate when it does that...
Under your scenario that would put Michigan up 4-0, not 3-0, if they won 125-149.
The inverse of this thread are all the random posts that:
“My wife won’t let me watch the match / stream the match / pay for FLO / pay for BTN+ / go to the match / travel to the Big Tens / buy tickets for NCAAs / drink in State College, stay in State College / etc “
If your life partner complains about your passion for PSU wrestling, you all deserve better.The inverse of this thread are all the random posts that:

At most, PSU wrestling occurs during 5 months of a year (1/2 of Nov, 1/2 Dec, Jan, Feb and March). In these 5 months, there are maybe 20 or so days where they compete. That comes to 13% of those 5 months or 5% of the days in a year. Doesn't seem like someone who loves you should be perturbed with this amount of time. They should support you.
I wrestled with my girlfriends brother all through mat club and varsity, so she gets it. But I’m still scared of her. She’s got a mean armbar.
My wife screwed up in October of 1981 ( to my benefit), now 37 years later I can attest that the Stockholm Syndrome is real and I count on it every day.
It may end when she finds out the price I'm willing to pay trying for tickets in a suite at PPG Paints.

Let's get back to the match. Any think there is much of a chance of RBY going? I see it as unlikely but hoping he does.
Lee vs. Storr
Cassar vs. Parris
Hall vs. Amine
Those should be pretty good. I think we win all 3, I don't think Amine has quite enough to score on Hall. Lee needs a good win after the loss from a few weeks ago. I'd like to see Cassar dominate Parris and win by major or at least close to it. If he's truly a title contender, and I think he is, then I think he should be pull away from him and I don't see Parris being able to take him down.
Nolf vs. Pantaleo
If he doesn't put a whoopin on him, I'll be shocked. Next topic

I agree and am hopeful for all of the above. I would like to see RBG
Now you're messing with me. I'm going to start calling him Roy G. Biv.
I dont think Bravo is going but holding out hope for Young to go.
How about this: Who more likely gets the fall: Nolf or Joseph? Pretty sure Joseph hit the inside trip and almost stuck Massa the last time they met
I'll go with Nolf. Although I look forward to Cenzo vs. Massa too. Cenzo seems to have gotten a lot better since their RSFR year whereas Massa has gone through injuries. I think Cenzo wins and isn't in trouble at any point but I'll take Nolf for getting the pin. I really think he is looking to send some messages to these top guys the last few weeks.
I just cant for the life of me think massa would go upper body again.
I think hell play it real tight and close. then try for a late td.
That seems to be the coaching script against our #1 guys from the field.

Wait, if Ruth Bader Ginsberg is going to be there, then perhaps my wife and daughter would be interested in the match.
No way they send RBY out against Micic. Even if RBY was healthy I fear Micic would major him with ease. If he can turn Pletcher he will hammer RBY from top.

If she shows let the internet know because it's looking for her.
Disagree..no way a healthy RBY gets majored by Micic. IMO
A lot of people have recency bias.
RBY when fully healty is a terror for anyone at the weight. He was off at Scuffle due to reported sickness day 1. Day 2, comes out an is putting it on Gomez 8-2 before he gets caught. Against Thornton he tries an ill advised move and gets hurt. So these are recent things that's in our heads. I try to envision the best version when trying to make predictions
I'm not counting this kid out against anyone. He has the one thing that is above and beyond anyone at the weight which is speed..can't teach speed and that could give anyone problems.
Recency bias goes both ways.
Micic was the best 133 in the nation last year on feet, yes better on feet than Gross, and is a JR world medalist. And he appears significantly improved this year on feet and on the mat.
Not saying he definitely bonuses RBY -- am saying he's far better than anyone RBY has faced.
I don't think it's even about RBY winning or getting majored, I'd just like to see a healthy RBY face Micic so we know where he's at. Truth is, none of us know
