No. Jimmy Hoffa was offed and disposed of in Detroit. You know. Kinda like Michigan & Iowa were. North Jersey still has the swamp, the stench off NJ Tpke Exit 13 and horrible traffic.

panewbie1 14 Report post Posted March 22 (edited) 1 hour ago, klehner said: Who objected to them leaving? I'm glad they left (some things are more important than college wrestling). I also have a problem with Kyle Dake and Nahshon Garrett, who permanently damaged their reputations with their anti-vaccination positions (and Nahshon's nutcase viewpoints), and I'm not alone in that view among Big Red wrestling fans. Most people got the vaccines because they were right for them. Dake & Garrett are young and probably healthier than 99.999% of us fat, old Americans. By the way most of the folks who died were fat, old, both or had some other comorbidity. They're above the age of consent and exercised their rights. Were they supposed to get vaccinated to lead other Americans to do so? Like folks like our VP Kamala Harris? She and others in her party denigrated the vaccines that are now saving millions of at risk Americans during the election cycle just to win the election. I get wanting to beat Trump but that was downright evil. Also, let's not forget the country's sorry history in medically abusing minorities. Is it any wonder folks have trust issues?

Most of what was said here is complete nonsense but I'll only respond to one utter falsehood here. Kamala and others did not at all denigrate the vaccines. They denigrated having Trump be the person to listen to in deciding when to take the vaccines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have replied to him way to many times and while being frustrated at how ridiculous he/she is, it is also humorous in a sense that he/she actually believes the crap he/she posts (dude/chick is so scared of COVID and infecting poor grandma, he/she probably wears a mask in their car...while alone...you know...because its bigger than being able to drive comfortably). However, I think guys like NJDan and others know they post ridiculous stuff via tongue and cheek just to get a rise out of people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

panewbie1 14 Report post Posted March 22 10 minutes ago, Katie said: How do you know that? I'm pretty sure Dake & Garrett are over 21. Because of that they do have the right of refusal (in the same way private businesses can refuse them service due to no vax). The elderly and those with 1 or more co-morbidity are the segments with the highest vaccination rates. Democrats were on record during the election cycle, not trusting Trump on the vaccines. You can look it up...I'm not. And don't use word parsing & other hallmark techniques politicians use to appear they're on both sides of every issue. Anyone who has read on the subject knows our govt has done horrific things to our minorities in the name of "science". I'm not going to cite things like a dissertation. You can do that on you own. Just search on things like the "Tuskegee Syphilis Study", Henrietta Lacks or "CDC study on MMR". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has a national champion ever returned and lost his starting spot the next season? I believe returning national champ Mark Ellis was losing to RS Fr Dom Bradley at Missouri a while back. I recall Bradley beat him in at least one tournament and there were questions who would start, but Ellis got to keep the starting slot in the end Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
