If you meant this Paul, he is home in Pennsylvania!
Photoshop some thing similar to Truman holding up the paper headline of Dewey Defeats Truman.

Well it has really gone viral!
Well it has really gone viral!
I get you, but while you are over there do a search for posts with "Ped State", "Slush Fund", "Steroids" and any posts from a guy named IronBird or one with Vodka in his name. Some deserve the pain. Most don't.
This is so well said. What amazed me most about his career, is he won 95% by dominating on top with bar arm tilts, and bar and half nelsons. Everyone knew it was coming, including incredibly high level wrestlers and they couldn't stop it. He was a joy to watch. Following him through his high school career, and I saw and heard about things that made me question him a bit, but, I always chocked it up to competitive spirit.
All that said, his not wrestling today is embarrassing to me, and hurts his legacy. I'm sure the Iowa PR team will be all over it and come up with something. No one can tell me that he wouldn't have wrestled in the finals, if he had won.
There are tons of kids that wrestled in today's consolations with injuries (probably more than those that were healthy). He also couldn't even show up to support his teammates? He lost a LOT of my respect (not that he likely cares, nor should he).
If he doesn't show up on the podium tonight, it goes to another level of embarrassment, in my opinion, which was never asked for.
Lol. Those db are still posting all the pedo shit and deserve everything they get, I hope they are hurting real bad and enjoy dancing on their graves,.
Nah. Most of the regular HR posters deserve all the pain they might suffer.
Max has character fostered by his parents. Further molded by Cael. Pretty cool to see how they like PSU even after Bo beat Gabe.
Larry Lee is a dirt bag. His mom seems like an emotional fruit loop. The Brands Bros are what they are. Spencer has absolutely zero mental fortitude by MFF out of the tournament. What a slap in the face to his teammates who were all working hard to place on the backside. Especially Warner. He easily could have mailed it in, but fought back for 5th.
If he is physically hurt, that's different. But he seemed fine till that moment.
Honestly he should just hang it up. I'll be shocked if he ever makes an Olympic or World team. His body is broken and he just doesn't seem to have it mentally.
The thing I think most of us are missing is the pure pain and high level of difficulty involved in wrestling with skin tears across your shoulder blade areas.
Just saying.
Wish Ramos would’ve looked at Tom and Terry after packing Lee and said, “You wanted this.” because it was so cool when Lee did it after decking Drake

“He doesn’t like tough wrestling”
I'm in my mid 50s and yes I am saying it... I think Spencer's mom is actually not bad...I kinda like her 🤔
The Brands' bros are lunatics, that shitty fan base deserves the criticism. I'm sure it has rubbed off on Spencer. That Knob Gobblin on the iowa board is a dbag.
No you don’t deserve to be banned. Would he MFF if he won semis
On the top 50 NCAA tourney scoring list with Lee's points updated:
3 Banach
16 McIIravy
18 Zalesky
18 Lee
22 Brands
26 Williams
37 Davis
Off topic ,HR has a whole post dedicated to banning psu trolls. It's like they all took their ball and went home.
Oh; that’s a feeling I know well. In fact, I would say I’m probably the board expert on that subject
That's an annual thread. Probably merited by a few PSU fans. Also very little room for less than 100% agreement there even during a less sensitive time.
Shouldn't you be over there on HR kissing all of the Iowa fans' asses and pretending to be some kind of insider on the Sandusky case. Jackass.
Agree 100%. I am disappointed as well.
Assuming he would have been healthy enough to wrestle the finals, he should have been healthy enough to wrestle for third. Not a good look for someone who apparently has coaching ambitions. Unless he is truly injured and absolutely cannot wrestle (which I have not seen any evidence), Spencer's message is: I lost so I quit and I am too good for a third place medal. Not very inspirational.

He’s my favorite Iowa wrestler of all time and was part of one of the best matches of all time as well. McIlravy vs Abas was such an entertaining match. I had never seen a boot scoot until McIlravy and I thought it was the coolest move I had ever seen. He wrestled the true Iowa style. Always moving forward with tons of pressure but putting up tons of points as well
Nolf was better in every metric, it’s not close
Retherford and Ruth also
In fairness, Spencer actually won on a tone ACL. So that is not an accurate statement
I have not been to HR much that I recall, I've just heard a lot of things about it. If we have people doing that those probably aren't real wrestling fans who understand the sport. Or maybe they are people who think that wrestling started in year 2 of Cael at PSU. I may make a joke or two about the Brands brothers, but all-in-all I have a lot of respect for Iowa's tradition and history and in my lifetime that program is still the measuring stick. The fact that Iowa is still competitive (Okie State has trailed off quite a bit) but can't close the gap just underscores what a great job Cael and his staff are doing at Penn State. I have no problem with any Hawkeye fan who wants to have legitimate conversations about wrestling even when we may disagree good-naturedly on some things. But I do have a problem with those who want to paint good people with a bad brush to make themselves feel better when their program doesn't win. I'd say it's just a fringe over there, but supposedly a top donor for Iowa's wrestling room seems to be one who falls into that camp. For those kinds of people, I'm glad Spencer lost to a guy who didn't even win the championship, then didn't even bother to finish out the tournament. For the decent Hawk fans, I do feel bad. Seeing a fan favorite like RBY lose his last match takes a little bit of the joy out of the team championship. But even though we only had 2 champs tonight, there's plenty for us to look forward to next year, including the possibility of 2 wrestlers going for their 4th title. Things don't look quite as rosy for Iowa at the moment and Lee's loss means a lot more because they had so much invested in him winning #4. There's no "yeah, but we had a 4-timer" moment for Iowa fans. And no champs at all.
There’s a lot of irony in him standing next to Killian Cardinale, who did wrestle injured for the whole tournament on a 28 seed he got after not being able to go at all two weeks earlier.
Happy to know that you're OK with being an Iowa ass kisser, a pretender and a jackass. Good for you!
Seriously?
Move the bullshit along..
Keep it light or I'm banning everyone except JTS,

Just need to remind, regarding Dean, Nolf as examples of what the appropriate response is:
Every other wrestler has the appropriate response. Literally. Every match down thru HS, To elementary. Everyone is the example.
THE GOAT would have wrestled in the backside. A goat does not.

The GOAT never had to. All, but one of the many "one" of the Goats have sucked it up and wrestled the backside.
On a personal note I was called into work early in AM and it sucked. So I decided to MFF the rest of the week
YOU DONT LIKE TOUGH WORKING
I have no problem with Lee MFFing out of the tournament. There were plenty of MFFs on the backside. Lee's points were not needed for a team trophy, anything less than a championship was meaningless to him. Why risk more injury for what is essentially meaningless matches?
Last year Kerk MFFed the 3rd place match because the team trophy was clinched.
Reality is, just about everybody still wrestling on Saturday is nursing some kind of injury.
