headshuck 2,176 Report post Posted December 2, 2012 Imagine how much bacteria must be on McDonough's headgear? Some of that tape must be from 2008. The vinyl covering is gone, the foam must be festering some nasty stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AnklePicker 521 Report post Posted December 2, 2012 At the high school level you are no longer allowed any tape whatsoever on your headgear for this very reason. I can't understand why the NCAA hasn't already followed suit. With the amount of skin infections permeating wrestling and the not so easy to kill MRSA types, this should be a no brainer.

silverback 48 Report post Posted December 2, 2012 If that was mine I wouldn't even want to put my own head. Brands should lose that thing for McDonough's own good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
headache 124 Report post Posted December 2, 2012 Dutch scientists have discovered that bacteria laced concrete can self-seal cracks. The bacteria with the aid of nutrients in the concrete and water seaping into cracks will secrete limestone and fill the crack. So for all we now McD's headgear might have morphed years ago into something that is neither foam, vinyl, bacteria, or duct tape. I say send it to the lab. Could lead to a cure for cancer for all we know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Note to Megaludis, Delgado, Thorn, and Waters: Think about what will happen when McD's biolab headgear touches YOUR face. Now that's something to look forward to, isn't it.

Let's say just for your arguments sake that both Kent and Cleveland State had 0 in attendance. Heck even if the Bloomsburg match had zero attendance that makes over 1800 for the year. With only 5 dual meets, if my math is correct (1800/5 = 360), it seems as though Pitt nearly doubles what it would take for you to never post again.  More than likely Pitt averages close to if not more than 500 fans per dual meet.MokomaGold Member Posts: 2154Joined: Fri Jan 08, 2010 11:40 am [*] Private message http://www.usawrestlingnation.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=7426#wrap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buck 65 Report post Posted December 4, 2012 Fact of the matter is you posted a bunch of gibberish, Pitt's lucky to get the arena janitor to attend. If anything my estimate of 200 is overstated by 150. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
