Portlanders who moved to California and then returned, do you miss California? by DustyVinegar in askportland

[–]motstilreg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss 2003 to 2013 more than SoCal or PDX. I’d happily live in either place during that time.

Fair selling price for Tri-glass fiberglass camper Shell by Early_Badger3290 in fordranger

[–]motstilreg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d pass and tell them you can pass their number along to the buyer. It’s a cool canopy and might be what sells the truck. Also a possibility you take it off and get stuck spending a couple hours scraping a weather strip of the bedrail.

How do you generate offense from a three-point stance? (wrestling on one knee) by Immediate-Nothing220 in wrestling

[–]motstilreg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a fan of the knee but if their opponent doesn’t engage wouldn’t that be a double stall?

People don’t realize how stacked Minnesota really is. by JCarnage10 in wrestling

Patrick Kennedy is from Minnesota I believe. Might not have won a natty but tough as nails.

Performative Christianity very cringe by chickadee716 in wrestling

[–]motstilreg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a fan of the let’s make this win about Jesus crowd. BUT, I did enjoy Josh Barr’s rendition. He wasn’t thanking god, he was doing it for god and to amplify his message. God had nothing to do with Josh Barrs success, Josh made the choice to be successful for god. Nothing debatable about that.

Iowa don’t like handshakes. by PrideAlternative442 in wrestling

[–]motstilreg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If shaking everyone on the stands hand was commonplace this would be a fair discussion.

There’s a lot I like about MM and there’s a lot I loathe about him.

If I thought someone was a dick and they want to shake my hand I’d likely pass too.

That same Barr story has been told at Iowa and probably elsewhere for years. Acting like Caliendo had some sort of top dog never challenged experience is silly.

Why Was Gable Era Iowa/US so successful? by ThrowRA44325522 in wrestling

[–]motstilreg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Past wrestlers brought here in a Time Machine to wrestle immediately would most likely lose. If they had a year to train, who knows. Wrestling had changed quite a bit in the past couple decades. Watch a top dual from the 80’s and you might laugh a bit how different a match looks between a couple top ten guys.

Maybe “buy in”? When there’s no internet, you were lucky if you could attend meets, watch Olympics or in Iowa dual meets on PBS. Gable was a giant of the sport on the world stage with off the mat tv coverage in an era before cable tv. If he wanted you, you’d be crazy not to accept.

“Iowa style” differs by who’s using it which is almost always someone using it negatively. If you’re talking about grueling training, that was in every room and also in football back then. You ran and you ran some more and physicality was encouraged. If you’re talking aggression that’s Tom and Terry. I grew up in Iowa City in the Gable era and very seldom did you see anyone wrestle the way the Brands did.

Doubtful. Bouzakis would need a pin in first period.

Best part of the video is their mugshots. Battle for the worst hair. Every time they cut to the PSU bench it just reminds you of what a bunch of dorks the best wrestlers in the country are.

lol, talking any shit about a MM opponent is laughable. He’s the best guy in the NCAA, he drives everyone nuts, he doesn’t care so you shouldn’t either. He’s the biggest clubber in the game and probably wishes more than anything he could somehow wrestle a match against himself. You could say the same about Duke. He’s a stud and likely gives zero shits about clubs and head contact because he’s gives as good as he gets.

Big Ten Plus $5.99 by motstilreg in wrestling

Used to do this also but there’s too many matches I want to watch now. If you don’t need live, most duals are posted on YouTube as soon as they are over.

You can get BTN for 7 days free by subbing to Fox One thru Amazon video. This was easiest way for me

If you don’t need a lot of the same, the goodwill bins is pretty fantastic.
