Maybe I should have said there is a way to celebrate that is fun and makes me root for guys and there is a way to celebrate that makes me really dislike guys. He may be a great kid, but the way he does it just rubs me wrong. I am not anti-celebrations, I like probably 90% of them. Just the ones I have noticed would make me put him in the Desanto category instead of the Mark Hall category. I don't know the kid and I am not saying he is a bad kid, it just seems like he wants to be the heel and while that is fun sometimes too he will probably not get a lot of fans by doing it.

I saw an instagrap clip of him doing some weird dance or something after he beat Iowa last week and then walking back to the center of the mat leaning backward. I love to see some guys celebrate like Mark Hall and others who seem to find a way to make it fun. Penn State seems to have mastered it. I can't say exactly why Red's rubbed me the wrong way, but it only reinforced my impression of him. Was glad to hear he then went to MN and took a 9-2 loss to McKee. The Iowa match in particular, he did basically nothing for 6:50 against Iowa's back up and then strutted around like he just knocked off a top 10 kid.

So I went back and watched that bout to see what you were talking about. He had a whopping 4 second celebration where he strutted and nodded his head. 4 seconds. I timed it. That BARELY qualifies as a celebration and certainly not excessive. Its the opening match of the dual against a higher ranked team. The crowd is into it at home and cheering him on. Sure, technically, Turk is the back up, but he is 13-3 and they last met in the NCAA tournament where Turk made it to the round of 16. Turk is even rated higher on Wrestlestat than Red. Turk is real competition. I feel like people are looking to be offended even when there is no offense. I get the "act like you been there" school, but come on. We are now in the land of picked nits.

MD92 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Oh, I'm not offended at all. I can just see why some people don't like it, whether it is him, Mark Hall, DeSanto, whoever. Jayruss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
