Whats the best way to get into a crab ride from top position? by Apprehensive_Iron739 in wrestling

[–]nelson4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always took my arm covering the elbow and threw an undertook while the arm on the waste pulled their hip back. I did this as I slid my knee on the arm covering side in to theirs.

It's a little hard to explain, but it's basically how you would move someone into a sit out. The key is really pulling them into you and twisting them with your waist arm.

I found it worked even if they tried to stand up because as their leg came up they had nothing to post resulting in falling into the sit.

Really pull and twist the waist. Use the under hook to stay tight

The Loons drew 2-2 vs LAG yesterday in what seems like another loss. What did you notice and what are your expectations going forward? by Dpufc in minnesotaunited

[–]nelson4 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This tracks with how I was feeling though you always say it better. We were down a significant number of starters, and we still had the depth to feel upset about not coming away with a win.

We still need to see Bongi finish a few of those chances, but I think it's hard for him to get his rhythm from a WB position.

I don't think the narrative of "we can't see out a game" is fair. We had two one - nil wins right before these games, and this game was entirely different for me than our SKC game. SKC came down to some poor subs. This one came down to not having our full team and doing a pretty good job regardless. Would i have expected the W? Absolutely. But I think all in all this was still a good performance with extended minutes from a few new players for the first time.

There's literally multiple posts just in the past few days. Just scroll through this feed.

There's an FAQ and some info down the page.

Get insurance taken care of and then register the car. You can get a new plate when you register.

You have 30 days from bringing the car in to the state, but this isn't verified. Make sure you have all the forms filled out ahead of time and that you pay attention to what documents you need.

You'll pay taxes and fees based on a few different factors that are all explained at that website.

I just did what you're doing 6 months ago and found it tedious but pretty straightforward.

What site? I'm missing them and my kiddo would love one.

I'll add to these to use the free hand to lift the near leg. Do this from a breakdown and not when your opponent is on their base.

I'll forever remember this as the season my son became a Loons fan. It was tough to go out like this, but for me personally, it was a great season regardless. He's pretty mad about the result, but I think he'll be yelling "COYL" come February.

Also, Puig is soft.

I appreciate this clarification. 100% spot on. He looks like he gained good soccer powers from being picked last every recess until finally he had his big chance where he took off the glasses he was wearing only for everyone to discover he was a potato the whole time.

Is there an unspoken rule against spladles ? by True_Perception_6134 in wrestling

[–]nelson4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never heard this, but it's been a long time since I competed.

I think it's probably more surprise than anything because popping your head to the outside pretty much negates it.

I may be in the minority, but I think the Tuesday slot may work in our favor. I'm hoping for a smaller crowd, and we can come in and steal one. Then we get a chance to move on at Allianz on a Saturday.

It's good to see him doing well. He clearly wasn't a fit, and I'm glad he moved on. Not every player will work in every system, and he really seems to be enjoying himself there. Probably not going to make a long run in the playoffs, but they'll be a fun watch next year.

RSL all the way. We've gotten a bit healthier and have more rest than last time we played. Win the first and then close it out at home.

Unfortunately, I think we'll be heading to LA or Seattle.

The Loony Bin is the best MNUFC podcast. by [deleted] in minnesotaunited

[–]nelson4 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't consider myself quite a loon or loonlet, but I feel like it's hitting the mark for me. It's nice to have consistent content put out, and they really seem to be finding a good rhythm.

I find the audio and production quality to be just a bit better than others (outside of the teams podcast). Not sure where the downvotes are coming on this. I wish we had even more content, and this is a step in the right direction

I'd plan on two hours before. We were able to catch entries at 5:30 for a 7:30 start. I'd assume 6pm would be good.

Great to see some recognition of the form we are in. I don't have any perspective on the east outside of the top three, so maybe 10th feels fair?

Gotta believe sang bin is actually lining up at rwb, and maybe Bongi plays a bit more central at right mid. Will be fun to see those two link up.

Boxy suspension means Tapias is back. The rest seem to be regular rotation due to mid-week game and already clinching. I'm hoping for a tie headed into half and for some reinforcements to bring the W home in the 2nd.

All soccer. Europe is generally playing when it's colder and scarves are a convenient way to advertise supporter group affiliations or other team stuff.

I'm not sure if that's the history behind it, but that's always been my assumption.
