How terrible would it be to miss a world medal based on criteria? Need OT and true 3rd in international competition

I am a criteria guy all the way, so I politely ask that ot stays the hell out of my freestyle wrestling.
I kind of like repechage, but would be all for a full wrestleback at the biggest events(Worlds, Olympics).
I agree. The football route is very understandable, financially speaking, if Kueter is really of NFL caliber. But it seems clear that the caliber of his wrestling is already in the stratosphere.... could be one of the greats.
Yup...I believe Facundo only got one match. To go all that way just for one really sucks.
Anthony Robles says "hold my beer."
Nice try. If you are going to use a word make sure you really know if it applies. Some words are defined in such a way that they only work in very specific situations. The fact that I not only detailed why I said what I said, but even added I think Keuter could surpass Lou as the best Hawkeye Heavy off all time, immediately eliminates any true pedantic applications.
Now, go fluff PSU somewhere and post some more passive aggressive Iowa slants…
exactly what a pedant would say
If you think MUS158 was being a pedant, you should meet my father-in-law.
One poster said "baddest man on the planet" as a hyperbolic statement out of excitement for Kueter's world title. You then immediately jumped into the conversation with "ACTUALLLLLLLLY, SADULAEV IS BADDESTER" as if the original poster (or anyone) was saying that Keuter is the best wrestler in the world. You were being pedantic.
it's not pedantic if you come up with a rambling explanation after everybody makes fun of you
If THAT was THE ONLY THING I SAID, then yes. However, it wasn't...I even fricking explained, with a Warner(ov) example why I did it. So, PLEASE don't tell me what I was being. I am the one person that knows.
Also, I am probably one of the most honest, straight forward posters on here. Many times, to my own detriment. I would OWN pendantism if it was actually the case...
In case anyone hasn't seen the actual match, it is on youtube. In watching it again, I thought the ref was going to stand them back up at around :40 (just before he gets the wrist) and again at :51 (just before the first turn). I'm not a freestyle expert by any means, but isn't giving 20 seconds on top before the first exposure more than they usually give, even if top is working for the turn?
Though Dost Lack Accurate Perception In This Case. It may be better for you to go back to fluffing PSU and overstating any Iowa shortcomings...it's not pedantic if you come up with a rambling explanation after everybody makes fun of you
Since you must have recently found "pedant(ic)" in the dictionary, without understanding the meaning, I suggest you look up the word "syntax". Make sure to spend some time absorbing its meaning. Then, maybe take a workshop...just saying!
In other words, he should strive to be his own best pedantic practitioner?
Hate to interrupt this extremely important internet fight, but I just have to say that all I can think about is Family Guy and I am dying...
Hoping many of you have seen this episode as well:

Okay, this has turned into a road rage incident over a failure to use a turn signal. Really not that big a deal, gentlemen. Back to wrestling.
The dreaded balls the to the face pinning combo.
That seals the deal as BK being the baddest man on the planet.
Have you read any of my posts? Originality, even if not always well done, is my thing. I actually hate quoting people. Hollywood uses it as some badge of intelligence when you quote some trivial, barely relevant 17th century philosopher. To me, it is more a clear sign of the lack of independent thought!
If I am going to argue on a message board, you damn well better be ready for me to make up insults on the fly!!

Berge gold medal bout on deck. Smith and Feldman for 3rd after that.
On the women's side, Audrey Jimenez is in the finals. Tristan Kelly is going for bronze. Reese Larramendy wrestles tomorrow.
"Being derivative is antithetical to originality."
I believe that's an original quote, but wouldn't know unless I looked for similar ones.
Berge up 4-1 at break. Gave up a shot clock point, but scored 2 tds.
2nd period:
Exposure for FRA, reversal Berge 5-3. Big 4pt td FRA 5-7
Hmmm, thought Berge scored, but 2 given to FRA, no challenge 5-9. 20sec
Final 10-5 for FRA. Berge finishes 2nd.
Head high young man, great showing!

I’m gonna need to google pedantic. Seems to be the glue sticking this thread together.
Edit to add: I’m all caught up now. You may continue with this pedantic argument. Did I use it right?
