is there anything that joe biden can do to make you not support him? how about 25% unrealized gains tax?

I think we see Dieringer and Marsteller go 79 KG. If JB/DT hang them up Dieringer might try to see how he does for a couple years being the guy at 79 KG.

keep in mind....he's the only one getting younger.

1) Where did this happen? I thought we were talking about last two guys you dropped videos of, regardless we should drop this discussion cause i'm pretty sure its just an honest mistake on someones part. 2) If you are fighting someone who is going to use their human shield ad infinitum to kill as many people as possible, yes you kill the shield. You could argue about the morality of an adult shooting a child to save themselves if it was just a limited scenario, but if the person using a human shield is going to use that shield to kill as many babies as they can you shoot the shield. 3) If the Israelis instituted rape as an ostensible military tactic, the three you referenced would not support israel anymore. That a good enough example? One hamas can't live up to btw.

I appreciate your thoughts on this. It is what I initially started the thread out to get some thought s on this. Boy has it taken quite a few turns .

1) what are you talking about? the video you replied to is of Mohamad Safa, the same guy willie called a fundamentalist. 2) the response to human shields isn’t to kill the shields. 3) name them.

Hamas = Hawkish. Got it.

5% pleasure 50% pain And 100% reason to remember the name

I think Dake’s Olympic podium finish will be a big factor on his future plans. If he wins gold he really doesn’t have anything left to prove. It would have to be tempting to retire while he’s at the top. If he doesn’t win gold I could see him aiming for another world title but I can’t see him making it all the way through the quad to 2028.

1) No the first and second guy aren't the same. They have different names and look nothing alike. 2) The civilian causalities are 100% the fault of hamas, both in the sense that they could surrender anytime, and the sense that they are using human shields. Worth noting they aren't using civilian shields to win a military objective, they are doing it because they are trying to win a propoganda war. Their goal is civilian casualties. If you validate this tactic it will be impossible for a truly evil party to lose a war. Also the civilian causalities aren't even disproportionate when compared to other wars in similar terrrain. the fact that you are dropping the word genocide when you are defending a party whose open policy is genocide makes me think you've never encountered any of the arguments against your own position. 3) I could name ten things that would cause the people you listed to cease supporting Israel, there is nothing you could ever think of that hamas would stop at in order to restore a caliphate. So that comparison is ridiculous.

Stop with the facts. They don’t believe them when it doesn’t fit the narrative.

Funny how this post gets ignored by certain people.

I think the writing is basically on the wall for JB and Taylor, we're just waiting to see if they go for the consolation special in september at an off weight. 74/79kg - 'Cenzo, Berger and Monday.

I had no problem with mine. It was an awesome year!!!!!

Dude is hilarious... "when are you gonna pick up your end of the coach?"

Yep. That’s how mine worked. Mine was a year though and was industry driven. I could work as long as I stayed away from the competition. .

Dake must be getting close to hanging it up, no matter what happens at the Olympics. I wonder what he'll decide. How about Adeline? Did she retire?

Patricia Saunders would arguably have been a 3-time Olympian if WFS existed before 2004. Kristie Davis might've been a 4-timer or more (maybe).

If they were to paint with a broad brush, I'd say the average evaluation is "wealthy bulldozers with good gas tanks and sub-par match tactics" would be my guess. My guess though is they don't actually say anything about any one wrestler more than our guys do about any one of their wrestlers.

Why you cried.

To answer the actual question...he definitely has people who beat him in that room, that's why he moved there. Dake can try to do what he wants to someone like brooks, that dude's neck is almost as big as his waist, no matter what happens, he's coming forward at you. Also, considering he's the #2 wrestling mind in the country, being around the #1 wrestling mind in the country very likely had something to do with it. People who beat dake right now I'd say include Cael Varner Snyder Brooks Nickal But realistically, I don't think anybody below 197 is giving him a go. He's just too smart, too good at putting together game plans.

Good question. I imagine part of the muscle and gas tank perception comes from our folkstyle tradition. Strength and conditioning can get you pretty far in a style that's based heavily on control, riding, and long scrambles whereas wrestling through takedowns or scrambles in freestyle to get or prevent an exposure could be perceived as more finesse or technique-based. Idk if many people believe that's true today, there are so many opportunities for American wrestlers to train with or be coached by international FS/GR folks and develop solid technique, plus tons of international wrestling footage for us to learn from. The introduction of the step-out rule could arguably have played to the success of some American wrestlers but I'd guess that ppl outside the US would broadly say that our wrestlers are successful because we're a wealthy country with lots of resources, as is assumed with many other sports.
