Brody Grothus

Doing my part to set the record for Brody. Most of us know from the area, but did everyone know that Grothus and Carton graduated from the same high school? I wonder when the last time that happened at Iowa?
Meyer and Clark are from SE Polk, and from the same class.
 
Louden Swain: I'm gonna drop down to 168 and wrestle Shute.
Kuch: SHUTE? Shute's a monster! A genuine geratoid! His own father has to use a livewire to keep him from f---ing the fireplace!

This quote always makes me laugh. What the hell is a geratoid? And, "had to use a livewire to keep him from f'ing the fireplace" is just a very odd thing to say. It really makes no sense. I can only imagine the writers were getting super high and thought "Kuch speaks mostly gibberish. Let's just make some crap up".

Not be "that guy" but, it's teratiod not geratiod. Teratoid means mutant. The fireplace comment has always been a confusing one.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Brody pass out at 31 Flavors last night...I guess it's pretty serious...!!

I should have been more specific with my question. What I meant was has there ever been a Hawk take another Hawks spot in the line up that was from the same high school. High school Teammates battling for the same spot in the line up. Very ironic but I'm sure it has happened before at Iowa but I can't think of an instance. Maybe St. John/Moore?
 
Oh thanks, well that explains it! Now, can you break down the livewire and f'ing a fireplace?


Umm that one has always left me with a mental image that just confuses me more. Did his dad catch him with his pants down humping the fireplace or what? and why the heck would that be what he wanted to do? I am just so at a loss as to where to even begin to figure out what that would mean. Any psychologist out there who can help us with this?

Been almost 5 hours boys, this is the 3rd period per se...suck it up and finish it Iowa Style! What was it that Gable used to say, "The more you post on the thread, the less they post on yours"?
 
A military friend emailed me a picture this morning of Brody swimming through the desert. His shoulder must be feeling good!

I heard that the reason Brody might only wrestle a couple matches at the Midlands has nothing to do with TnT's plans for him but rather the NCAA stepped in and said it's unfair that he come to the midlands and crush not only the other 141 hopes for an individual title but the other teams hopes for a team title.
 
I guess this is the best place to discuss this.

My Midlands fifteen:

Gilman
Clark
Grothus
Ryan
Carton
Turk
Sorensen
Kemerer
Cooper
Rhodes
Paddock
Meyer
Brooks
Burak
Stoll

Any way this isn't the 15 (barring injury)? Any way SSJ makes his way into the 15?

We need a mock pbp of BG midlands matches from Vallholl.....
As I recall, the faux PBP of the Maryland duel took bout 90 min to create and that was for a meet that lasted 120 min. Since the Midlands is two days, wow, that will take forever...

We've got till next Tuesday....just do it between Dance classes....
 
Thread summary :
People are excited and a bit cautious (wasdt21) about Brody at 141 (Sandor may be a little too excited.
Mike T makes a "crap post" b/c "it just feels right" Twister is rides MikeT like BrandonS.
Tarp mentions that the talk about intermat's NCAA point projections and can Brody/Stoll reduce that?
butchinmi shows up to add OSU to the discussion and make a comparison for the Big 3
CaseyB is serious about getting 14 pages.
The emoji machine is strong.
The roles of George Wendt (Fletch / Cheers) are discussed.
Gas tanks
Brody's Midland Seeds
Reminded that Brody's class included Cayle Byers as a transfer
Also reminder than Brody beat Cooper and Sorensen last year at Luther Open.
PBS seems to think it is funny to predict that Clark will be undefeated and unseeded by Nationals
While not exactly defined, the concept of a Brewshirt is developed with multiple volunteers. Something even MikeT can agree on.
KW's Aarp cards are mentioned
WWDM makes reasonable, well thought out posts and then is begged to tell us how he is related to WDM (Also, WWDM and Val make some inside Luther references)
HIWILL tells us Brody will go a couple of matches and then we debate how pitchers can blow out their are after 1 pitch or 200.
Vall calls out Casey about the whole Fredericksburg and Frederika thing, which those two think is hilarious.
About midway thru page 2, the interlopers from OSU / PSU stop coming by the thread (so there's that) but reappear about page 9.
Chief observes how "New guys Gablefan and Fleming didn't have a chance to post on the legendary Grothus thread...making up for it now."
More emojis
Brody played little league baseball
CholleyVandine whines that James English is a better story than Brody Grothus on the HR Board.
There is something called SOCOM and LBlind likes!
Sloe wants to start a Pong Tournament.
We explain out nicknames. Some of which, I still don't understand. Including the mysterious AFHawk86 and AZChief. Winners: 1) WWDM, 2) GG121AND2, and 3) caseyB
JustWrestle133 is still a mystery.
AF lives in the future.
Brucefan may be a cyber creeper.
The underlying theme that this board may be made of 6 other people with 10 aliases each is mentioned.
MinnH reminds me that he had two boys that went to Blue Earth (and my best friend at Luther is a Bricelyn, MN guy).
HIWILL needs help with cut/paste and then we see Brody go 141 MPH
Cal notices the similarities btw WWDM and Constanza
KWood is Ferentzin04. Ferentzin04 is Kwood.
Hounded watches UFC
Crossface is hosting everyone in his basement for Nationals
CCA = Certified Crop Advisor. Wow. Read it as Clear Creek Amana.
Jesse Whitmer is the strongest man in the world
Chief likes the movie 300.
KWood found a motorcycle riding emoji.
We're all from Davenport. Davenport either sucks or doesn't suck. Including Gobblin who then calls out Clinton, Dbq and Muscatine. Wildturk lives downtown D'port. Moose canoed in gym class.
CaseyB working hard throughout the thread.
WWDM goes Chuck Norris / Ditka on us.
butchinmi knows people from Decorah, so he's instantly good people.
Don't bring up Hooters around the emoji machine, aka Kwood.
bnicolls wonders full sized or mini on the Ditka.
Omaha calls "cat fight"
Davenport? Well that's by Bettendorf, so SansS has some insights. DonH mentions that it might be a parody account. (Again, there may only be 6 people on HR with a bunch of alias)
Day1 can drive on I80
MadTown brings 80's wrestling movie references.
Huck calls us out.
JackHawk wants to talk Midlands in the Brody thread. Nice work.
 
We've got till next Tuesday....just do it between Dance classes....
Ha! Dance is off for break.
However, my older brother talked me into trying to ride 500km between Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve and when I mentioned that to Mrs. V., she went off to find the frying pan from "The iron isn't even plugged in aka Midlands PBP 2014'" so we will see if I can squeeze it in. Unless...

Dance is off for break....Good.... then NO excuses. Get to it.

OBTW....we'll break HIWILLIES 13 page Brody thread record no problem....
but we've only got about 22,000 views on this thread.

I thought we should go for the all time record...you know the ONE

42,287 set at the Grapple on the Gridiron.

"No problem" - as they tell repeatedly at the super market.

Please refer to him by his Indian name...Swift Elk. Thanks in advance.
 
Louden Swain: I'm gonna drop down to 168 and wrestle Shute.
Kuch: SHUTE? Shute's a monster! A genuine geratoid! His own father has to use a livewire to keep him from f---ing the fireplace!
I just noticed from this link that Michael Schoeffling, the actor who played Kuch- excuse me, Swift Elk- was a member of the US Junior National Team. Won Gold at the '78 European Championships!

I think you guys are over thinking the Vision Quest comments. He is just saying that he is a freak who is such a bad dude his dad has to keep him from F-ing the fire place, obviously that would be a tough thing to pull off but pretty tough if you could go there........

But when F-ing the fireplace, does it matter if it's wood or gas? Also, I wonder about how one actually mounts the fireplace. I thought Swift Elk had one of the best line of the movie:

Louden is talking about how crazy it's making him that Carla is living under the same roof.

Louden: "I got caught sniffing Carla's panties."
Swift Elk: "She woke up, huh?"
 
Since we're on the topic of Vision Quest and for the prosperity of this thread, I have a questions regarding this classic piece of cinema.
When Louden is at the hotel talking to that creepy guy. Louden tells him how he doesn't have money for new wrestling shoes and the creepy guy proceeds to tell Louden there is a way to get his shoes (que weird, suggestive smile) Than we cut to Louden running from the hotel with brand new wrestling shoes....What?!
What did Louden have to do to get those shoes? This scene happened right? I'm not imagining it?
The vibe I got didn't suggest that Louden just washed the guys suite and order up room service for his shoes.
That part bothered me for years...years!

Guess he gave them to Louden to keep him quiet...he did try to grab Louden's wad. Those red/silver asics reset the bar on wrestling shoes tho...loved them.
