Zain/Yianni wrestle off location
- Thread starter Truth_Talk
- Start date
I sat a few rows behind DT and he took a picture with every kid that asked. Had to be over a hundred kids that he obliged. Walking to the lot after I was next to him and his wife. He was kind enough to chat. He said the knee is improving and he will be ready for 2020.
David is so freaking personable and accommodating. A few years ago he was stopped at Sheetz in Philipsburg when he was recognized and with that huge smile of his he posed with half a dozen kids for pictures.
That’s really cool, I’ve never met him so I didn’t know.
Insert inappropriate bow and arrow bedroom reference here...
I’m almost certain I saw Morgan at yesterday’s match sitting on the front row of Zain’s reserved bleachers. I was sitting a ways across the mat but the three of us were all pretty sure it was him.
She stayed off her back longer than Micah Jordan. (Speaking of inappropriate.)
+1 for tobacco reference
+1 for "CHOO CHOO MOTHER****ERS."
5/5 Stars. Would recommend for all to view.
85% Zain + 15% Yianni \ 100% supportive wrestling fans = 1 great afternoon!
The Big Red fans got flashbacks of Ruth drilling Lewnes.
It wasn’t going to be their day
And flashbacks of Bo doing abracadabra to Dean.
My main takeaway from the match, besides the adjustments that Zain made, was the way we was handling the weight cut. At the Open and FinalX he looked as if he was drawn out and stripped of some of his muscle mass. Over the weekend at Wilkes he obviously made some adjustments to his diet/ weight cut and it showed.
Who chose the venue, anyhow? I wonder how Zain got such a home court advantage, not that I’m complaining.
I'm sure Cael & Co made a big stink about an "equidistant" location, knowing full well what that meant.
They're saying that Yianni put Zain on his back and exposed and Willie is saying that Zain initiated the movement and Yianni could only have scored if he held Zain on his back.
It's the distinction between Zain initiating the movement with the crotch lift or Yianni initiating the movement and Zain rolling him through. I don't see what they are seeing. I'm with Willie on this.

They talked about that too, but the real reason is because they saw Zain initiate with the lift and would give Zain a point (if they threw brick). They're trying to force more controversy, I think.
Pyles, Nomad and the other clown just can't let it go. I read a post from someone on The Mat forum that said that it was either 2 red or 2 blue and it couldn't be scored 2-2. The same poster said they agreed with the 2 red.
Good for Willie stating the obvious.
If you give any replay the Zapruder-film frame-by-frame treatment there are no limits to the fouls, points, penalties, and crimes against humanity you'll find. Matches actually happen in real time, though.
I get why they like to talk about Yianni, he's an intelligent, supremely talented and genial dude. The thing at this point is that Zain beat Yianni fair and square and they might subconsciously (especially Bratke) not be happy with it,
And it has to be noted that there's a gulf-wide difference in access Flo has to Yianni versus, well, any Penn State wrestler or alum. I doubt that consciously colors their bias, but their rooting interest here has always been apparent.
They addressed this, too. It's the reality of how Cael operates. He doesn't have to do it and he probably never will open it up. Continue do what is working.
Fans could learn something from the wrestlers, whether it's Yianni, Zain, or any of the many, many wrestlers that show sportsmanship/class.
In this video, Yianni spins the hateful comments (not all were hateful) into saying that fans care, diffuses the situation, and shows wisdom beyond his years.
