  1. #AllLove4DaSouth...Godspeed for quadrupleB and grind on.
  2. If anybody knows or finds about a stream please post the web address for those stuck at work. Ugh. I know last year it was, as OTR said. Hopeful it is again. All the technology these millenials have and use yet we struggle to get video..SMH. Would think it would be taught in COMM classes in the high schools these days and could be a project for class credit. Except in Connersville, of course! I get it's holiday break but would think some wrestlers buddy could utilize the tech.
  3. Deny ..deny..deny! We need #TheCountyTmz up here...stat!
  4. #BracketGate2016...get trackgopher in there next year!!
  5. Phew..thought maybe that's when the food got there and most people walked out the room.
  6. Without seeing full lineups, most interesting weights based on above 4 seeds? 170..126? I'm sure a new thread will start in about an hour..just passing time.
  7. #YungFluGuns...better to have it roll thru now than during state series. Way to persevere..
  8. Now that's an OUCH! Unless it's sarcasm, then I missed the font.
  9. Yeah I kept looking for #TheCounty pop up holiday store at the event for some last minute tshirt s for Xmas.
  10. Portage vs EMD...might be the only pool play intrigue for advancement. Anybody want to do potential lineup/matchups/outcomes/score? Guess it might be moot til tomorrow and Moran availability is shown?
  11. Ok. I stand corrected. Thank you #PainTrain for live streaming your recent dual vs #TheOtherCountyTeam for FREE!! But that was clearly a mistake and did nothing to draw more interest to your program, which in turn might increase youth/parent involvement and #'s. Not sure why MMA events are pay per view...all the people watching are already fans and should go to Vegas to watch, yet it started as basically a garage "fight club" and now sold for billions. Guess that isn't growth. More revenue doesn't grow a sport via advertising and getting the word out that it's cool. What was I thinking? PS..Sorry can't let this go. It's called marketing. This is a really cool event. You're telling me that if there are 500 more eyeballs on this tourney via track for $10 and they see this event and feel the excitement/intensity thru their computer screen that maybe next year say 5% say that seemed so cool that they're going to attend in person. I'm just throwing #s out there so please bare with me. Maybe the following year they take their neighbor and his kid who shoot baskets with the wrestler in the tourney and their like "whoa...that was cool" and then maybe that kid goes to his wrestling club and digs it! Do #'s manifest over nite? No but over time they might. Kinda hard to sit here and read about how we need more weekday duals to grow the sport when we have the second coolest event this week to showcase to those on the fringes but we don't want to utilize 21st century technology to put it out to the masses for a FEE ie REVENUE because they are, in your opinion, already connected to the sport and should be made to drive/fly/buggy to the event. My Ball U degree ain't in marketing or English but I do believe revenue does drive growth. I recall a lot of these 1A-2A schools saying their participation in this event helped them immensely as far as interest and participation. In your scenario, those participants this year should be the only ones who get to experience it via attendance in person (since they are connected). What if their small community rival that they lost to by 2 forfeits had 3 kids that got to watch it on track (since they're hours away and don't feel like driving..or can't cuz, you know, they don't have a license yet!) and saw how fun it was and got 2 of his buddies interested because they saw it for $10? So they see it via streaming and get 2 of those kids into the sport and don't forfeit a couple years from now and maybe get into the event..that's not growth? Seems shortsighted.
  12. Dude, I'm gonna be there! Wouldn't miss it. Just sayin' it doesn't make sense to not make it available to those who cannot attend for various reasons. I don't feel those who have a kid in it or some type of connection that can go to the event, won't just because it is live streamed...but those who can't can still enjoy it via that technology if they are too far away or can't make the trip due to various reasons. Any My Family Los Antilles type cigar will do...I ain't picky! I wear a size XL for my #ILuv#TheCounty tshirt! I'm always available for a meet and greet with my #TheCounty people. Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays
  13. Ugh...I get the ticket $ aspect if that's the reason but this is not how to grow the sport.
  14. Uh, oh...I smell an undercover #TheCountyTMZ report coming soon! Somebody hatin' on #TheCounty..this will not stand!
  15. #GrowTheMessageBoard!! Just cuz wrestlinggod3 (where's 1 and 2?) is new since this month and anonymous, doesn't mean he has to get shouted down just cuz he hasn't been around long enough to know #TheCounty shall not be dissed! We were all anonymous at some point. Heck I thought TeamGarcia was Coach Red for a while. Can't grow the sport without growing the message board. Dude's only made 11 posts, anything he posts will be the majority of his posts at this point. No, wrestlinggod3 is not affiliated/related/originated by/with UncleJimmy.
  16. So seeding 3-4-5 should be interesting and pivotal? Have not seen EMD but it's a message board...so I'd say PM-Portage-EMD.
  17. #TheCounty..totally disrespected with 4 number 1s individually and top 2 team wise. Time to #LetItgo on the disrespect thing, no?
  18. My guy!! Miss u man. #ClownBabyCrush That kangaroo didn't stand a chance.
  19. Just wondering.... Are logistical considerations taken into consideration as far as placing the teams into brackets? I understand seeding, but a scenario could be foreseen where seeding wise you could have Portage-Penn-CP in same pod based on seeding possibly. Same with say EMD-Castle-Avon just going off the power poll. Would different regions be interspersed just to provide some non familiar matchups logistically speaking?
  20. Yeah..had a littell ; )~ issue at the Glass House recently and had to remedy some cracks in it, like JMILL said would happen ( I should start listening to him more, I kid of course). Worked out ok tho..since it's so frickin' cold in da North I just had LittleJimmy go out in his singlet and repair them with the duct tape remedy Fabio mentioned for ISWA..the cold saved me from sending him to Siberia for proper training and the Glass House got repaired..for now. Win/win. I like to think I'd pull in more in a trade than just JMILL. Maybe a ClownBaby thrown in too..where's that guy been?
  21. SouthSideJimmy givin' other Jimmy's a bad name......c'mon man, as #TheCounty people say now.
  22. Also known as the way the IHSAA determines the Team State Champ basically.
  23. as maligned noted earlier..unneeded post. Thought EC SS was the update. NVM...
