Just got done watching Karate Kid and as an Iowa fan, always makes me kind of sad as some of you may know. Sensei Kreese and the boys were just trying to teach Daniel (the Bully) some life lessons...Instead, he hires a Japanese hitman/voodoo priest using his Mom's Jersey mob connections to beat up the innocent boys of Cobra Kai and eventually bring shame up Sensei Kreese...himself a veteran of Vietnam and the Special Forces. Supposedly, "Mr. Miyagi" was a veteran who won the Medal of Honor but is it a coincidence that Miyagi was a junk collector and probably got the medal from a garage sale...guessing it's a clear case of stolen valor if you ask me. From what I heard, Miyagi was really a guard in the Bataan Death March for the Japanese Army. He is so corrupt that he even introduces Daniel to marijuana plant cultivation...Bonzai trees? Yea right.
So, why am I writing about the Karate Kid? I believe it was the seminal point where America began to turn into a bunch of wusses. Look at the whole story and you will see the creeping societal narrative that is trying to brainwash our kids. You see, it was the 1980s (a great decade btw...Reagan and Gable, amiright?) and they couldn't just start teaching sensitivity training in our schools because too many real Americans still existed and would have rooted out the hidden commie bastards. Why not use the principles of our fighting spirit and excellence to teach a whiney lesson that America sucks? Hell, they even used our sworn enemy to do it in Miyagi.
What does it have to do with Iowa Wrestling? Like Cobra Kai, Iowa is the best. Because of our excellence, others seek to push the subversive narrative that Iowa Wrestling are a bunch of bullies with their face-mushing and push outs. Gilman, Ramos, Metcalf, Stache, St. John? All would have been right at home in Sensei Kreese's dojo. However, individuals like TR Foley continue to sabotage the lessons that Iowa can teach to the world. I mean c'mon...TR? What kind of dbag goes by his initials? TR needs to cut down on his Sloe Gin Fizzes. Face mush away boys...you are helping the wrestlers you dominate be better men for it. Who doesn't learn from a good mushing?
So like Miyagi, the wrestling world is lauding another guy with a weird sounding name from a foreign place...Cael/Utah. Think about it: He's Mormon...don't they have magical underpants or something? His wrestlers have even been seen taking a bath in a very small tub. I mean, rub a dub dub, three dudes in a tub...disco nights must be a hit there. Guess we know what is getting taught at Penn State. Sure, they are great wrestlers but have any of you noticed that they are coming in a strong second place in the tan category? Heck, they might over take tO$U in more ways than one.
So Tom and the boys must continue to heed the lessons of Sensei Kreese...STRIKE FIRST! STRIKE HARD! SHOW NO MERCY! BTW, I am not the only one who thinks Karate Kid was a subversive piece of junk...there are others.
