  1. I guess this topic could be inter woven with another topic then..................because if the coaches send their kid out there against a much more dominant opponent instead of giving a FF and then the dominant opponent takes him down 27 times in a match you guys will not be happy with that either. So the coach saves the kid from that and just FF's and now you are not happy with that. I thought this was a sport for tough kids (not basketball) where we all know what we are getting into (coaches and wrestlers). IF a kid is in the weight class on a team then he should wrestle if he is there and do the best he can. If the dominant wrestler takes him down 27 times in a match and the kid doesn't like it he should do something to stop getting taken down. It seems we are trying to protect the weak and punishing the stronger kids (i.e. penalizing for too many TD's, and for someone FF'ing to them). How about just stepping to the line and wrestling and making stronger better members of society out of these boys ? I am sure this is going to draw some nasty comments back at me but come on people !!!!
  2. this news does not affect my score prediction, still sticking with PM in a close one !!!
  3. feels good doesn't it ? Now don't go crazy with it and ease yourself into it but eventually it can be liberating !!!! #TheCounty #PainTrain
  4. I used 2 hands, 1 foot and my cubicle neighbors 2 gloves sitting on her desk and was still a little short so I found 3 tootsie rolls in my desk drawer (good thing the score prediction wasn't 29 !!!!)
  5. I just went thru the above line up match by match and won't say who in each match is gonna win in my prediction (because I truly like parents, and kids on both teams too much) but I came up with score of..............................28-27 PM
  6. this has nothing to do with the ISWA, we simply come there and hand out the awards on a volunteer basis so I can meet the parents and make contacts to sign the kids up for the MS National team trip. It is 100% IHWCA and my best advice for contact is JD Minch and if he can't help he will point you in the right direction.
  7. Do this next year and give enough notice and you may actually get Fabio to drive up and stream it live while doing analyst commentary on matches. He puts out a fantastic product (well except for 1 thing broadcasted from a training academy announcing something super important for #TheCounty & #PainTrain................but my therapist says I have to let go of that and say I forgive you @Fabio Jr.). The guy is going to do great things over the next few yrs to help grow the sport if he is allowed to do them !!!
  8. I can tell you that the talk of a new location with full size mats to help out with the speed of the tournament and to help accommodate the athletes in a more suitable fashion (I mean come on it is a state tournament and putting kids no matter what weight class on 1/3rd mats is absurd) is likely going to happen after this year. The regional discussion is a great one and I am a supporter but it would take much more structure and help from those that want to volunteer to help it be a reality. If that is you and you feel like you can help then contact the IHWCA and let them know you are willing to help out and solve the MS state issues. See if you can attend the planning meetings for the '19 MS state season and actively help to make a difference. I, as the Kids Director for ISWA, obviously have a vested interest in MS state as we get our MS national team for the Heartland Trip from the state placers so I also support the best way possible of seeding the tournament in hopes that the end result is the best kids finishing the day (or night) at the top of the podium. I would hope that the IHWCA would be willing to listen to people and ideas to possibly improve this process. With this being said that is who and where you need to direct all of the ideas for this to see if change of any kind can be taken into consideration.
  9. We are talking about Darrick Snyder right ? I mean this is a no brainer answer..................D Snyder all the way !!! The guy is a genius and will figure out some way to beat Lesner I have faith !!!
  10. this is an example of a D-bag comment for anyone who is reading. Just wanted to point it out since Y2 won't install the "dislike" comment button for me.
  11. You finally said something of print worthy news. Congrats now #TeamGarcia feel free to banish this guy to the POM #TheCounty #PainTrain
  12. I agree, this Fabio guy is doing great things !!!!!!
  13. every year you bring it up and every year the teams all comply with the guidelines set forth by the ISWA......even Perry so thanks. good luck to all teams
  14. started at 9a per a source actually there right now........... #TheCounty #PainTrain
  15. I am not 100% sure on this and would have to defer to MattyB and TeamGarcia but it does seem to me that over the past several years Avon has not ever taken its full varsity team down to EMD for this tournament and may have used this weekend as a time to rest up some hammers and get some next level good kids some varsity experience. With this said I think its no wonder they never won the tournament (not to say they would win this year if they were there and full strength but you get the point)
  16. who is this Reily kid from BBurg ? isn't there a thread on here that talks about him not being worthy of the rank in state as he has no credentials ? must be a mistake somewhere cause............................................................THE KID IS A BEAST AND NOW YOU ALL KNOW !!!!!!!! LOL #TheCounty #PainTrain
  17. guess this makes the Avon decision to go seek competition at a higher more consistent level a good one to all of you who said doubting comments !!!
  18. did you need JMILL to stop by also Nick ? I can see if he is avail
  19. and #TheCounty which always trumps da region
  20. Good point Jim, lots of hand shaking already.......too much if you ask me. Hand shaking is a dirty way to spread un-needed diseases. Lets end it all together !!! #StopHandShaking (I have been doing this for 47 yrs now)
  21. It sounds like you are saying he will only win if he scores more points and rides Zain out ???? interesting....LOL (I kid I kid)
  22. can we just come over to the studio and get our questions out in person amongst the cats, and hot GF's ?
  23. MattyB/ TeamGarcia get your edit button finger ready to increase some of these #'s after next wknd !!!!
