    Embrace the power of punctuation. I ran outta breath reading the longest sentence in board history. 
     
    I support the kingsmen…but unless certain schools secede from the state, I don’t foresee a state championship scenario. 
     
    Gotta have hope….in Harper we trust!

    For people who don’t make it this far north often, please be advised: not all Penn people are certifiably insane.

    UncleJimmy reacted to SWINfan in State Finals STREAMING THREAD - Announcers, Issues?   
    Hey TrackG, why do none of the brackets have links to the wrestlers profiles for this event?  The Evansville SS was done the same way, but at least the day of (or night before) the event they were all linked.  Just seems like someone missed that big time.  Not sure who is responsible for that.

    UncleJimmy reacted to JMILL in Kevin Whitehead's Final State Championship   
    Every parent out there will automatically say their favorite name said in the Mr. Whitehead voice is their own kid's name after being announced a state champion to stand at the top of the podium. 

    I literally can still hear the echo of that voice & announcement in my head to this day like I was in Bankers Life listening to it live.  This will be a tough act to follow for someone for sure.  Thanks for all your time and dedicate and we look forward to 2 more days of this !!!

    UncleJimmy reacted to Galagore in State tickets   
    This no GA thing really cramps my style. I usually ride in solo-style and find my posse when I get there. Guess it's a year to make new friends...maybe even convert some single class people...Next year I will definitely get the section # of @UncleJimmy before making my ticket purchase.

    You got no friends, bro @Galagore? I'll sit next to you next year....as long as you promise to not start a class wrestling thread the day after Finals! I kid of course...I support @Galagore..but not class wrestling.

    UncleJimmy reacted to Y2CJ41 in Kevin Whitehead's Final State Championship   
    When I found out I was having a son, I (half) jokingly said now I need to make sure he has a name that will sound great at state with Kevin announcing it. Kevin said that he'd likely not be announcing by the time he's in high school, so he made this.

    On Facebook Kevin made it official that this state finals will be his last on the mic. Crazy to think an announcer has made such an impact on this sport, but he has literally become the voice of the sport. Thanks Kevin for being the voice of Indiana wrestling for 40+ years!

    UncleJimmy got a reaction from Regionrat1 in Coaching   
    I would be remiss if I didn't mention the many Penn coaches/mentors that made the 2016 State Championship possible, long before it came to fruition. These dudes at the middle school level along with all the PWC coaches were, and are, terrific.
     
    Dave Manspeaker...Grissom Middle School
    Raoul Donati............Discovery Middle School assisted by a @crosstownrivalsand Dave Metcalf
    Tom Dolly.................Schmucker Middle School
     
    It takes a village and alot of behind the scenes non glamorous work....it seems as tho wrestling has more of these types than most, but I'm biased. Great coaches, but better mentors. And of course behind the direction of the Xtreme HarpDog!!!

    UncleJimmy reacted to navy80 in Brooks ONE Championship April 22 in the morning!   
    Brooks-
    5th, 2nd, and 1st at state. Fargo freestyle 2nd and Super 32, 1st.(via Indianamat)
     
    20 wins and 2 loss MMA record.
     
    Just won the ONE FC championship. He will hopefully get DJ (THE GOAT) next. 
     
    I am not sure why he isn't in the UFC anymore. His legit only loss is to Deiveson Figuerir which was a split decision. Deiveson went on to be UFC champ. Brooks lost his second fight when he KO'd himself when he suped a guy, in a fight he was winning.
     
    Anyways, Brooks is finally get paid like he should now and at the top of fight game outside the UFC.

    UncleJimmy got a reaction from MUSKEEWRESTLER in East Noble looking into hosting girls invite   
    It does not, you must start a new thread so I know to hit the "mark site read" button when I get to it. Now I"d click on this one thinking i was getting relevant info on the EN invite. @MUSKEEWRESTLING is relatively new, he'll catch on after his 85th class thread. Cut him some slack.
     
    To stay on topic...I'm glad to see women's wrestling moving forward in the state and especially No Cen IN with a potential EN invite.
