    I agree. I wish I could be there to see it.
  2. sarto
    Do you have any particular interpretation of these stats? Or are they simply interesting? Just curious.
  3. sarto
    I love this particular argument. Can someone please tell me what, in the name of all things holy and profane, this has to do with anything? The 50's?
  4. sarto
    Good argument. I stand corrected.

    There are many things that make history. That doesn't make them praiseworthy. I have nothing against Kayla and she is to be commended for her hard work and dedication. However, as I have stated numerous times on this topic, none of that is relevant to the discussion. Did she make history? Yes. Did she work her ass off to do so? Of course. Should she be commended for that? Yes (with a caveat). Is it appropriate? Is it good? Is it right? Hell no. It is bad for so many reasons. Reasons that I have argued ad nausaem. None of the reasons people give in defense make a damn bit of difference. They are secondary to the question of whether or not it is right . And to come back to my original point, the fact that it is historical, or the fact that she worked hard, do not, in and of themselves, make it right.

    Bad. In every way.
  7. sarto
    Anything on Wright and Suter?

    For all of you posting updates, I thank you! I am eternally indebted to you. I am giving you all cool points (whatever the hell that means, and for what it is worth).
  9. sarto
    I agree wholeheartedly.
  10. sarto
    Yes. Thank you very much. It is greatly appreciated.
  11. sarto
    Anyone with consol updates?
  12. sarto
    What time do the finals start?
  13. sarto
    No scores yet? Anyone? Please?
  14. sarto
    That's right. I forgot about that rule. That's ridiculous.
  15. sarto
    I agree. It seems rather odd for these teams to miss each other. What's the point of going if not to hit that kind of competition. Hopefully that is corrected next year.
  16. sarto
    Do we have any details yet? For the love of all things holy please give us some details.
  17. sarto
    What's the schedule look like? I would like to make it down for some/most/all of the tourney.
  18. sarto
    Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana". While a little on shady side from a lyrical standpoint, the music is quite stirring.
  19. sarto
    A fine theory indeed.
  20. sarto
    I would appreciate some news as well. The results page has Heritage Hills and Southridge results, but nothing for the overall tourney results.
  21. sarto
    Actually I just tried it again and it didn't work. Not sure what I did wrong.
  22. sarto
    It took a couple tries and way too much cut and paste. Join the club on the technical challenged bit. I think it takes me about three times longer to do anything on this machine than it would a normal person. Short explanation: you have to put the little quote thing before and after each section. So before it you would put .

    I suppose that if we are using the term 'principle' very loosely to mean more or less anything someone does for a reason (or without one for that matter), then your statement may, in part, be true. However, it should be clear from this thread that no one here (or very few) believes both sides are equally admirable. If we did, we would not be having this discussion. One is not commonly described as 'standing on principle' when one simply does what everyone else is doing. You may be able to claim that the female wrestlers are standing on principle by doing what they are doing, though I would argue that those principles are poorly conceived. So if you are going to argue that both sides stand on 'principle?, and if, for the sake of the argument I granted that point, I would simply say that not all ?principles? are equal. For example, The Westboro Baptist Church protests military funerals on the firmly held ?principle? that the US is evil, that the military is evil and that anyone who serves in the military is going to hell. I would hope that we could all agree that their principles are poorly formed? Obviously that is an extreme example. I am not saying that these two cases are the same; rather, that simply doing something on ?principle? does not mean that the action is admirable. Furthermore, my opposition to co-ed wrestling is not based merely on the possibility of intentional misbehavior, but on the very thing itself as being inappropriate. I don?t care if both parties are pure as the driven snow. As I said before, I am morally, practically, and prudentially opposed to co-ed wrestling.

    To the best of my knowledge, the Evansville Diocese (which Mater Dei falls under) does not permit females to compete in male contact sports. So as far as a girl wrestling for Mater Dei, it is not going to happen. However, I do not believe they have a policy regarding competition against them. It goes without saying that I would support such a policy, even knowing that it could effictively eliminate MAter Dei from state competition. That is the cost of being principled.

    He will be in our prayers.
