WrestleMan reacted to Penn04 in Laplace vs Brewer Friday night
Or at least serve as a shining example of how utterly preposterous our no wrestleback-having state series is.

WrestleMan got a reaction from MD92 in Toughest Weights at Each Semi State
Ah sarcasm. We've each used numbers to reach a conclusion. I guess we've just interpreted them differently. New Castle has always been one of the top 2 semi states and is again this year. I just happen to think Evansville is a little better this year because of the #'s I used. Feel free to continue using #'s in your reasoning, but remember these are all opinions and not "factual".

8 #1's in one semi state with 82 ranked wrestlers and 3 of the top 4 in the power poll. No, not too tough

WrestleMan reacted to awood1 in Hot Mic mat 4
My kids are well versed in what is acceptable language and what is appropriate where. They were also taught that you shouldn't ignore unacceptable behavior simply because "everybody's doing it" or it is awkward to correct. The post your original response was directed to described the broadcast as "definitely not kid friendly". Only ignorance would believe that HS kids don't curse BUT it is a reasonable expectation by any responsible adult that any kid can understand the context of being broadcast across the world wide web and considering that ANYONE could be listening.
A simple reminder should be all that's neccessary to correct the situation. Pretending that everyone that may be listening to a HS wrestling match should be accepting of foul language as part of it is ignoring the problem and failing the kids in question. If you let it go as "just what kids do", then you have no expectation of anything better out of them. It may not be comfortable, but I think the kids deserve to be told when they're f'in up.
*Even this forum has *corrective measures" for inappropriate language....for a reason.

There's some solid parenting. Just don't be a snowflake when someone takes the role of raising your kids and tells them to watch their language and shut their pinhole later when they're talking like a truck driver in public

WrestleMan reacted to hook and half in notable matches and upsets week of 1-2-19
Unseeded North Posey wins the last six matches, posting 30 points, to beat Eastern! Wow!

WrestleMan reacted to hook and half in Team State Predictions???
Avon is in an odd place. I think they are in a great position to beat a very tough Cathedral team. On the other hand, I don’t see a scenario where Avon can beat WC, MD or PM.
IC is loaded. There will be a lot of Avon fans when they square off!

WrestleMan reacted to Y2CJ41 in #2 Perry Meridian vs. #4 Mater Dei
All around it was great to watch some high level wrestling and have a great quality stream and commentating. I put it on my big TV and sat on the couch and watched great matches all night. Big thanks to all those that made this happen as I can't wait to do a few more this year as we expand into streaming a little more.

WrestleMan got a reaction from SunDevils in #2 Perry Meridian vs. #4 Mater Dei
Not sure what you mean by toxic, but true not to see everything through those blue and silver goggles.
I’ll admit it when Perry is better than MD but to use the “big move” logic or “big in dual meets” logic is crap. These are two top 5 teams. At certain points in their wrestling lives they’ve all hit big moves or come up big for their teams. To say one team will and the other won’t is unrealistic

WrestleMan got a reaction from IU89 in #2 Perry Meridian vs. #4 Mater Dei
So Perry gets a fall at 182 because Clayton is a "big move guy", but Mater Dei can't get a fall at 113, 120, 126 or 132? Also Perry seems to have two guys who "show up in dual meets". I guess the Mater Dei guys don't care about dual meets.
Seems like fair, unbiased reporting.

WrestleMan reacted to SWINfan in 3a seeding for team state
Please take this as constructive, or nitpicky if you must, but this is a big pet peeve of mine.
Saying Avon lost to Cathedral 21-43 is akin to a double negative. The winning score ALWAYS goes first. Stating they won or lost tells the reader which team had which score. I've seen this a lot lately and no clue why. Maybe it's an internet thing, because you don't see it in any respectable print (the few that remain).
Sorry for the rant, but listing a score as 27-29 drives me nuts and is just wrong.
Back to your regularly scheduled argument with Avon and Perry fans!
