  1. As grandma used to say, this (unfortunately) means somebody's momma didn't raise them right. I have seen too many excellent wrestlers succeed with great character to tolerate that type of behavior. For a kid to tell me that fishhooks was an accident (especially if it wasn't the first time) is a kid telling me that he thinks I am an idiot and will hide behind the "well your MY guy and I gotta believe you? DUH!" Kids need boundaries and to play stupid tells them that it's OK, the end justifies the means. When my son was young(er) he came off the field in a youth football game and threw his helmet. As I drug him to the car, he tried to tell me he "dropped" it. He was BS'ing, we both new it and as painful as it was for both of us I could not tolerate it. To this day, he may unsnap his chin strap at half time, but other then that it stays on. This one isn't mine to deal with (I have enough of my own) but I can say that a coach, parent or fan that says they have take the word of a teenager despite what they know and see, is in for a long road. ???
  2. I bet Naegle's headlock on Dosier a few years ago broke a bunch of brackets!
  3. We haven't gone THAT Californian!
  4. I hopped in my Jeep to make the trip, but realized I wasn't going to make it in time...Maybe a 30+ hour heads up would work for next time. Same offer applies for any of the meets! They have a triangular every Wednesday.... Jan. 21 Monterey Trail & Elk Grove at Monterey Trail Jan. 28 Sheldon & Florin at FOLSOM ..plus with the time differance and the long drive, we have a spare room (only a double bed, sorry) you can stay in before you head back! PLUS, if I am right you will be 90+ miles closer then the directions provided to start (makes all the differance in the world, those first 2,000 miles FLY by on I-80!) ;D
  5. Who needs cool points when you can wear shorts! HAHA
  6. Jesuit / Pleasent Grove / Folsom Triangular STILL ON! I will buy a pitcher of your favorite beverage for anyone that shows up! ;D Here are the directions (Oh come on, there has to be some perks to not being in IN!) :-\

  8. Jimmy Dean - Great pork sausage patties and he's a Hoosier!
  9. I hear he made VARSITY as a freshman (he must be pretty darn good!)!
  10. Is he the one in the pink high heels? Still Laughing! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah How in the world could you mistake me for the one in pink!! I am 6'4" with a 30" inseam (I am the one to the left of Dave with the stubby legs!)
  11. WRESTLING TAKES THE LEAD just pick "wrestling" and click the vote button repeatedly As the great Richard M. Daley once said, "Vote early and vote often"
  12. Snow? What snow?... Today: Areas of patchy fog early. Partly cloudy skies. High 68F. Winds light and variable. Tonight: Partly cloudy. Areas of patchy fog developing. Low around 40F. Winds light and variable. Tomorrow: Areas of patchy fog early. Some clouds in the morning will give way to mainly sunny skies for the afternoon. High 68F. Winds NE at 5 to 10 mph. Tomorrow night: Clear skies. Low 41F. Winds light and variable. Friday: Abundant sunshine. Highs in the upper 60s and lows in the low 40s. Saturday: Abundant sunshine. Highs in the mid 60s and lows in the low 40s. Sunday: Sunny. Highs in the mid 60s and lows in the low 40s. ;D
  13. But aren't Lake and Marion Counties also the most populated counties? I would bet there is a correlation between the #'s of qualifiers and the county population? P.S. Whenever this conversation starts now I feel like we could really benefit from having the smart brother from that show "numb3rs" in on the discussion!?
  14. LPD will use his discount card to stock the room with some of the best jelly filled pastries available! ;D
  15. ...like riding a moped, tons of fun until your friends see you on it!
  16. the world may never know thats funny thats the same answer i got when I asked how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop "a-one...a-two...a-three "crunch"..a-three"..Quote by Mr. Owl
  17. So quick math tells the story of a kid with a career record of 137-5 ....2 of those loses coming Saturday night under the lights ....3 to the eventual state champion ....12 pts. total away from being a 3x'er I always felt like the kid should be singing the tune from Annie, "It's a hard luck life ..." HAHA A few years after his last loss to Schneider I saw Ball State was in a bowl game and he was playing D tackle for them.
  18. Let's you keep track of who are the best officials and table help!

    I can guarantee, that of the guys ranked at 130 currently, he will be the only one listed as a 3x state! ;D

    I will wahoo you you every hour for the rest of my life because of this post ;D haha I am gonna need them....[glow=red,3,400]I am losing cool points faster then I am losing hair![/glow]
  21. Jay Mack.....talk about a tough little dude. Was a frat bro' in college and it was always fun to watch guys my size choose to pick fights with Jay. You put him and Willie Cruz at a party together and you had 250 lbs of whoopa$$. HAHA TAE...for my amusement, could you revisit the career of one Damon Hummell as it relates to this discussion. I believe he was the poster child for the advent of the 215 lb. class.

    Just to be clear...I tottaly respect the rankings guy, his rationale and his choice. I have an insane desire to compete...as I get old and slow (anyone else relating here? ;D) that desire reveals itself in a need to argue about something. So if I have even a glimmer of a thought contrary to others, I will argue it to the death....nothing personal, disrespectful or unappreciative of the rankings guy. That said, Harper could lose the rest of his matches and be out at sectionals and still have accomplished more than anyone else ranked above him even has the potential to do. For that alone, I believe he deserves my respect....and that is why I would rank him #1.
