It’s disappointing to see how far Hofstra fell off after Ryan left.
I’m watching RAF. I just watched a Hs Senior (Basset) tech fall an Olympic Champion. I don’t even understand how this stuff is happening.

to be fair…
Khing is 40 and was an olympic champion at 57kg…
some really bad scoring, but, was never going to matter trying to keep up that pace…

Yeah. I get it. Still, though. Not a lot of kids in HS with that W in their Win column.
no doubt…
i just have too much context and it makes me a bit jaded…
RAF is entertainment. Look at who runs it. A career pro rasslin’ guy. These matches aren’t real competition mostly and have a desired outcome.
they are definitely slow playing bassett, but…
Taz and Snyder was a real match even if the outcome felt a little greasy with Taz not understanding the RAF rules on criteria…
Dake and Keck was a good match…
watching the jackass youtuber getting exposed as a fraud was satisfying…
all in all it was a much better event than last month…

Watched a video on that kid, tragic story. Wish him nothing but success, even if he is going to Chapel Hill.

Bummer news, dude was a legend.
Damn. Bobby Douglas first now J. Robinson 
Interesting conversation I had with a fried after RAF this weekend.
Who has the deeper gas tank- Messenbrink or Bassett??
my initial thought would be bassett, but, would have to go back and watch him during the losses to see if his pace slowed and how much…
it is easy to keep up a pace when you are dominating…
the only other wrestler i would put higher than either is Hidlay… he 100% won a senior gold medal last year at worlds on pace alone after coming from way behind on points…
