  1. No need to get your knickers in a knot. I will refrain from responding to this post in the spirit of peace and harmony and to attempt to stop AJ from hijacking the otherwise lively and enlightening class wrestling debate that is presently going on.
  2. zero of my questions answered. Ding. Thank you for playing
  3. You said you were done and two hours later your back to posting?? Whose got a hot head?
  4. Your doing it again. So are you saying baseball is not far more popular than winter sports or do you agree with me that baseball is far more popular than winter sports? or would you rather debate whether you actually typed the words that baseball is far more popular? or would you rather debate that an orange isn't orange? Your sidebars are classic thread hijackers. You do it all the time. I freely admitted to being suckered in. And it appears as if it's happening again
  5. So if only graduating seniors can go how did all those under classmen get there in the past?
  6. I guess it's a huge niche sport then if you say so. The larger point is that you sidetracked the discussion with an irrelevant comment on declining coverage of baseball on ESPN that really had no bearing on the debate. You were merely interjecting for the sake of argument. Your intent was not to add anything to the discussion on the popularity of winter sports because you freely admit that baseball is still FAR more popular and that was the point Galagore was making. Since you agree that baseball is MUCH more popular than winter sports, I can only assume you added your comment on ESPN programming merely to spur a side debate of some kind. You have succeeded as I was suckered in. Congrats to you.
  7. Feedback from coaches all over the country wonder why we don't have class.
  8. Your defense of a single class is that we know who the best is. (at least in Indiana). My point is that some kids in other states get 1st place but are not THE best. How damaging is that to their psyche?
  9. How do the kids in those other state live with themselves? Knowing they might not be the best yet still wearing the gold? What kind of long term psychological damage are those athletic associations doing to these athletes?
  10. Not for Heritage Christian. We are tea-totalers!
  11. Ryan Pribble - A state champ from one of the smallest schools in the state supports class wrestling.
  12. You have already proven to me that they are niche sports with your defense of their low TV ratings. The USA won the most medals so they must have gotten something right,
  13. Maybe you should start a crusade to get class wrestling out of the 40 plus other states that have been doing it for decades.
  14. Wrestling IS a niche sport. This is a wrestling message board? Duh pintowin is the one that brought the winter olympics into the conversation.
  15. Are you serious? You can't even remember what your own posts were. I will recap: You were making a case for winter sports being huge. You then contradict yourself by saying it was niche sport Galagore stated that football, basketball and BASEBALL dominated ESPN coverage. You try to argue that baseball doesnt belong with football and basketball. I point out that BASEBALL had 80 million paying customers and is not an afterthought like winter sports are. In conclusion: BASEBALL-still huge Ice dancing and other quasi snow sports-niche sports So what color is an orange?
  16. That all adds up to a niche sport to me. A skid mark on the American sporting landscape.
  17. No he didn't. Why are you twisting his words?? Why should I ever believe you when you blatantly misrepresent Galagore?
  18. Why name call? You have lost the debate sir with your personal attacks.
  19. Outstanding idea!! Thread hijacking is in bad taste!
  20. thank you...you have helped prove my point that baseball is huge and winter sports are a poop stain on the boxer shorts of sports
  21. attendance is down 6 percent from last year. Just saying that baseball is still HUGE! not it's own little niche I think you would argue that an orange isn't orange.
