    Non Olympic WTT

    Cael had been retired for 7 or 8 years when he made his 'comeback'. Taylor's only been out a few months. Motivations may be similar, but circumstances are not.

    Sorry, I've only skimmed this thread and others but I'm trying to get a handle on who's hurt. What expected contributors either missed the first game or got hurt? Bacon Willich Travis McLaughlin Brezina Others?

    Olympic Wrestling

    Just so I'm not misleading...Burroughs has already said he's making another run at the world team, though presumably at 79kg. And as far as I know, Dake has made not statements one way or the other. Just speculation based on how long they've been at it.

    Olympic Wrestling

    Not sure where this belongs, but just read Jason Nolf retiring. Kind of surprised as he seemed to be seemed to be next at 70/74Kg if Dake/Burroughs either decline or hang it up. I think this helps clear the way for David a bit also.

    My All Time Cyclone Football Team

    Hard to disagree with any of that. Not sure if you're restricting yourself to a certain number per position, but as others mentioned, Ellis Hobbs and Dexter Green would be my only additions I think.

    NFL: 2024 Fantasy Football

    Ahhh...I see. Every keeper league I've been in has been based on the prior year's pick, either same round or one above. ADP seems to kind of defeat a lot of the purpose of having it be a keeper league in my mind, but to each their own.

    NFL: 2024 Fantasy Football

    How in the hell did you have the foresight to pick Puka in the 2nd round last year?

    Wrestling Lineup Updates?

    No insight, but here's my guess: 125- Osmany 133-E. Frost 141- J.Frost 149-Ech 157- PJ 165- Euton 174- Gaitan 184- Bockman 197-Carroll HWT- Yonger Wouldn't be surprised to see E.Frost up to 141 with Osmany or Grice sliding into 133. Also Chittium could be in play at 157 or 165 and Naak may...

    I ran a draft of Cyclone greats with ChatGPT

    Anytime anyone puts together one of these lists, the first question becomes, are you picking each player at their peak to win a single game? Or are you picking a team to carry your program? Peak has to have Fizer, White and Tinsley. Program has to include Niang, Hoiberg, Morris. ps - also...

    Personal Best

    I'm about 5 degrees of separation from beating Olympic Bronze medalist Terry Brands. Someone beat Terry, who was beat by someone else, beat by someone else, etc. All of these were at vastly different times in our careers and I was all in all a very average wrestler, but who's to say. LOl!

    I assume that 1 is JJ Kohl who probably won't see the field.

    He's a genetic freak. He hasn't even wrestled competitively since the Tokyo olympics.

    Former Cyclones in the Olympics TV schedule

    Edwin Moses and if I'm not mistaken it was well over 100 in a row before Danny got him. Unfortunately I think Danny ran into some personal struggles shortly after and never really did much after that.

    First computer tales

    Dad bought a RS TRS-80 way before the schools got them. I'm not sure how/why because we were pretty poor. I was all excited and enrolled in some programming classes to learn BASIC. I then discovered a text-based Zork game and had no time for learning anymore!

    New Wrestling Scholarship Limit Increases

    I have been racking my brain trying to figure out the 'why' and 'how' this will all play out (in all sports) since it was announced. It doesn't make sense to increase scholarship limits so dramatically when the athletes could just be paid by NIL to be made whole anyway. I guess I've landed on...

    Wildlife fight: Who do you pick?

    As others have said, the terrain is the likely determining factor in this. Also 1:1 vs. Group is a huge factor. However, the question was phrased as a Battle Royal, thus implying it is on land, in a (presumably very large) cage and a group fight. Given those constraints, I think the Gorilla...

    Fargo 2024

    Just watched the Herrara championship match. Questionable exposure call with about 30 seconds left could have gone either way but went against Daniel. Still was in on a shot at the end and would have won with another second on the clock. Good match.
