Did anyone catch the 30 for 30 about John Du Pont murdering Dave Schultz?! It's called "The Prince of Pennsylvania." Crazy stuff...Du Pont was actually one of the greatest things to happen for international USA wrestlers...until the squirrels got loose in his head.

Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of great wrestling schools, Mizzou among them. I'm just a little partial having grown up in the Gable era...

I wrestled terry brands in a freestyle exhibition at a camp when I was a junior in HS and he as a freshman or sophomore at Iowa. I know most will probably be surprised to hear this, but he pretty much beat the shit out of me for 5 minutes.


Later that summer I met him again in a pre surgery waiting room, he was getting a shoulder fixed and I was getting ready to have something else done. He was much nicer in the waiting room than inside the circle.

5 minutes? You must have been pretty good...

Oh, I know. I'm 51, so his era was just before I got into it, but the man is a true legend...

Wrestled Catoosa, OK today. Fun tournament. Son went 3-2, but didn't finish with hardware. Really happy with how he wrestled though. He's showing huge improvements sincee last season already.

Barlow McGhee beat the crap out of Zeke Moisey, 14-4 today. Mizzou kid. Who in the world is that?!

6:30 am weigh in tomorrow morning. This is the kind of shit that makes me love/hate wrestling. I'd love nothing better than for us all to sleep in tomorrrow, but I'll also love nothing better than driving up to that gym with a cup of coffee in the morning.

Rogers, AR. And we usually do remote weigh in on Thursday or Friday, but due to the holidays and such... we're about to hit the road.

My son won his first tournament today. Albeit, it was a novice tourney, but he didn't place in the same tournament last year. He won all his matches but one by fall in the 1st round. One kid took him to points, but he won 11-3.
