  1. Anyone besides me remember the great Nick Bockwinkel? He was a fine technician(trained by Lou Thesz) in the ring. He was also very intelligent, cocky, and could trash talk an opponent or the crowd with verbiage that would made a Harvard grad jealous.

     

    I was trying to think of an old timer who could really wrestle and my mind kept taking me to Harley Race but I was trying to think of Bockwinkel. Thank you.

  2. He may be a different type of wrestler than you like and not as agile and fast paced as two you mentioned but he definitely can wrestle as his NCAA wrestling championship and two time all American honors prove. When it comes to big men he actually “ out wrestles” almost all of them.

    Braun is the flavor of the week right now but Brock is a much more technically gifted wrestler than he is

  3. From the 8th region ,let Dixie or “the rest of field “do damage in the regional tournament like last year. And let’s see who’s going farther we will see in the state tournament . That’s all that means anything.

     

    What exactly are you trying to say? For one, Dixie is in 9th, not 8th

  4. Sorry about spelling on last post. Drives me nuts.

    I hope to see Seth and Finn in a one on one match in future. Would be really good.

    One of the things I don’t like about wwe lately is there are too many matches where champ has to beat 2,3 or even 4 people. Know Seth/Finn wouldn’ t be a title match but I love a good one on one match. Takes me back to Flair and Steamboat.

  5. When were you there last? Indy has turned it around the last 4 to 5 years. I am not a fan of huge cities. Boston has far too many people for me. If I am raising a family as a coach, you can do far worse than raising them in Carmel

     

    Indy also has grounded, nice people like most rust belt cities. I can’t use the words I would like to for the elitist, arrogant, boorish people of Boston. Been there 3 times. Never going back. I visit Indy couple times a year. Really enjoy it

  6. Highlands will be much better at the plate this year. and I think we all know how the pitching will be. Improvements of players will much outweigh the loses. Good luck to the rest of the field. You’re all playing for second this year.

     

    Skip the season and the region tourney and get to the state tourney. Every other team just cancel your season.

     

    It only takes one bad day or one great pitching performance. Just ask 2005 Beechwood team or 2009 CCH team.

  7. Didn't Belichik pull the same shenanigans with the Jets? Or was that Parcells? Regardless, one of those two changed his mind on a head coaching job and I don't think it had much impact on their career.

    Actually it's starting to look like McDaniels is modeling his career path after Belichick... Failure in his first go-round as a head coach and getting fired, jerking around a team that offered him a head coaching job, being an assistant for a Hall of Fame coach...

     

    He didn’t hire two coaches away from other teams. Not cool.

  8. What's the 9th region record for the number of D1 pitchers on one staff ?

     

    How many will Highlands have when all is said and done? 3? 4?

     

    I’m sure it’s very rare. I had a cousin who played on 2000 CCH team. They had Harmon, Durr, Kunkel and Maynard who went D1 although Durr was not primarily a pitcher but was said to have touched 90. Also had Fry (sp? ) and Hembree who pitched college ball as well. Think a couple of JV guys that year also pitched college. Had Grogan at ss who played D1 as well.

  9. It's hard to use a 4 game stretch against Brady where he was just ok and then say it should have been Bell or Brown. Bell the first 3 games of last season had ok but not overwhelming stats. Brown had 3 to 4 games of just ok but not overwhelming stats, not including missing 3 games.

     

    Fair enough. I guess I just get tired of qb’s always seeming to win MVP. And yes, I should have included Gurley in the talk all though I’m taking Bell every day over him.
