This weeks W - Iowa Edition (edited)

Here's the problem with PSU posters: you quote shit that was never said. Nitlion6 is the master at it. Just make shit up regardless of if anyone ever said it. If those things were said it was by one individual poster and doesn't necessarily represent the view point of the entire board.

I'm not sure what is gained by misrepresenting your opposition other than some pats on the back and easy "likes" on this forum.

We cheer for different teams and are all fans of our own wrestlers and coaches, but that doesn't mean we have to throw reason or civil discourse out the window.

Goes both ways.

Lastly, why are you guys obsessed with shitting on someone behind their back. Chief doesn't even post here. If you have an issue with him go say it directly to him on HR.

You don't recognize how many posts here are fixated on shitting on HR or posters on HR?

I respect and genuinely like Chief. I don't follow you and can't attribute those crazy comments to you. That said, I have personally seen most of those things written over at the Iowa board. But, I am not at the wrestling boards all that often.
 
Not to rehash everything, but what do you say to a kid like Cortez that sat out his year, per the agreement he made, then he sees that 125lb get whatever he wants. Just seems wrong.
But we can discuss over pizza and beer.
Deep dish or New York style? Let's talk about something substantive in this thread.;)
 
wtf u on about?

I'm stating that the consensus on HR is absolutely not that PSU is on PEDs/steroids.

Several posters in this thread are claiming the contrary. That's playing the victim card. Why make drama and cry about a non-issue/non-discussion. Just silly.

The consensus of HR can be boiled down to any number of absurd conspiracy theories as to why PSU is beating everyone. There is an actual reason, though. Cael Sanderson is a better coach and a better recruiter. Kids want to go to PSU. That's it. The answer isn't going to be found by calling around to athletic departments.
 
Congrats on your victory guys. Sadly it went about the way I expected it. I wonder if Iowa coaches are going to be talking about the cradle defense this week in practice...LOL! Though I expected our 74 and 84 guys to get pinned, I didn't expect it to happen in a minute and 47 seconds, respectively...ugh!! Thankfully we'll feel better next week after tossing Iowa State around the match for a while. :) See you fellas at the B10s...
 
If you dig hard enough on HR, you could find the cast for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Part 2

Turns out you don't have dig that hard. You just need to have an Iowa PSU match, and all the crazies come out. Yikes
 
You and matter sound like the people who I extricated from my life when I left a very high paying investment banking job to work at a not for profit....

It is HIS life. YOU may think PSU is the cat's meow. YOU may think PSU offers someone the best opportunity for fulfillment and happiness. Its up to HIM. You can comment on the rules, but the kids decision for what is best for him isn't a call of "right or wrong".
Banjo, I generally think your comments to be level headed. Matter and I are not saying that it is his decision or that he shouldn't do what is best for him. We are merely expressing that we, obviously tainted by our blue and white glasses, wonder why any wrestler of his caliber would not want to be on this cruiseliner. With TKFR, this team would be unstoppable, that is a statement of fact.

Fair, my bad.

I have ZERO idea how scholarships work. I heard that scholarships can be based on performance for partial sports. Is that true? because if NS was held out of nationals, and then gets a smaller scholarship as a sophmore, and the money was used to recruit his weight, he probably thought that was across the line. I don't think Cael would do that. I think that guys just switched commitments to PSU. Here is the thing, I HAVE NO IDEA IF WHAT I JUST WROTE IS TRUE OR RELEVANT. I AM NOT EVEN SPECULATING. Hell, what if Nick got a kitten, and Cael, thinking it was mean, broke its neck, had it stuffed, and handed it to Nick with a note that said "kittens are for weaklings". Winning wouldn't matter much, right?

AGAIN ABOVE ARE JUST EXAMPLES OF WHY SOMEONE MAY NOT CARE ABOUT THE WINNING AND TEAM STUFF AND NOT AT ALL SPECULATION OR INSINUATION OR ANY OF THAT CRAP. HYPERBOLE FOR THE SAKE OF EXAMPLE.

My point is just that so much MAY have happened. None of us know what DID happen. Some lines could have been crossed. What if Nick tried to hit on Cael's wife or something (doubt Cael would have given him a real congrats like he did if that were the case)? (or again, Cael could have killed a kitten).

a kitten, a cat, or a pu**y? that's another one for Cael's legacy!
