Irishman

https://gophersports.com/sports/wrestling/roster/bobby-steveson/17922 It says he has one State title in Indiana. Looking that up now OK...so according to Indiana Mat he was at Merrillville.

I knew it was that area, just not sure exactly where. Our Wrestling coach said his brother wrestled for Lake Central before they moved.

This is a great article about her. https://www.nbcolympics.com/news/layden-allyson-felixs-spectacular-legacy?fbclid=IwAR2gV4MITSQaFmtMr5srMNQI9YjuPQhgfBOCBF3fg9lXRIE30TK0ACRBJXg

I believe his family is from the Hammond. IN area before moving to MN.

Gable Steveson trailed 8-7 with just 10 seconds left, and with just 2 seconds on the clock, he gains control for for two points and adds a point because of a failed challenge to win gold against the current world champion. https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/31971387/american-gable-steveson-wins-wrestling-gold-medal-125-kg-class-tokyo-olympics

Still….nothing you have replied to has anything to do with the conversation. This was NOT about the use of plexiglass, ESPECIALLY kids in schools. If you refuse to even consider what McAfee says, or have such a low, judgmental opinion of him, why even respond? He has at least owned what he did wrong. He never made excuses. You do you though All I said is he raised interesting points, one about how the league is going to test, and what the league was going to do about players who refuse to say whether they have been vaccinated or not.

Kyle Dake gets a solid win for the bronze medal after a disappointing semifinal loss yesterday.

No…..Pat McAfee used it as an example to explain what the league was doing as far as testing guys who openly said they were not vaccinated. And I merely speculated how the league was going to handle the players who refused to say whether they are vaxed or not. so, yeah, neither statement had a thing to do with my post. Try actually watching the full clip next time.

Sarah Hildebrandt jumped out quickly to a 7-0 lead, and slowed down in the second period and had a 7-6 lead with just 20 seconds left and gets taken down to lose 10-7.

Neither comment has a thing to do with what I posted.

And Sarah Hildebrandt moves on easily to the semi final.....started out down 2-0, but got a good double leg, got the legs together and rolled her opponent to get the SUP call. Really impressive. Kyle Snyder moves onto the semi final round with a solid 6-0 win.

Sarah Hildebrandt from Granger, IN moves cruises to the semi finals in women's wrestling. Kyle Snyder moves on easily to the 1/4 finals Both with Tech Superiority calls.

There are a lot of people in the same spot you are in. They hang around to check topics once in a while, and to read through game threads to see how games are unfolding. You don't need to be adding anything to keep your account open here. It may be here when your grandkids start playing. 🙂

This picture is awesome. His grandfather passed away last month. Larry Crouser is the one who introduced Ryan to shot put. His grandpa had lost his hearing, so Ryan used a whiteboard to write messages to him.

This will be interesting to see how the league handles this. As McAfee says, there are plenty of other players who are not going to get the vaccine, and others who are just not going to say whether they are vaccinated or not. He goes into some details briefly about what testing will look like for those that don't. My guess is if guys refuse to disclose, they will be viewed by the league as unvaccinated.

I could not resist sharing this. McAfee is hilarious. Watch the clip though....no the guy does not sh** himself, but it is funny to watch. I did not realize the sport has been in the Olympics since 1932. Today's race is 50K 😮 (over 31 miles for those who don't wanna do the math)

learned a new word while watching the wrestling.....repechage.....had to text our wrestling coach to find out what was going on, because 2 bronze medals are being awarded in each class. Similar to a wrestle back, I guess.......but our coach said to get to an actual 3rd place takes WAY too long, so they just give two bronzes. https://www.firstpost.com/sports/firstpost-explains-what-does-repechage-in-wrestling-mean-and-how-does-it-work-9864361.html

David Taylor is one bad dude........first 3 matches he won on tech falls, and now won the gold https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/olympics/david-taylor-makes-penn-state-history-at-the-tokyo-olympics/ar-AAMYrTd

Here ya go Colts fans

Top 3 throwers were in a class of their own. That was impressive.

Looks like Kovacs is going to fall out of the ring every time he throws.

This is awesome
