I read the football, basketball and wrestling boards regularly and I must say, you guys on this board seem to have the most fun! Knowledgeable, dedicated to the sport, Hawkeyes but pretty objective and willing to tell things as they are. I suggest you all meet up at a bar sometime and see who is last dude standing! (better keep wives and significant others at home though...)
Where did you guys come from?
- Thread starter r448chlpo
- Start date
Some of us actually met at a bar in St. Louis last weekend, and Kwoodhawk was last man standing...though I think that's because everyone else had drank too much! Truth be told, Andegre is the one I'd want covering my back in a fight.
all good 448 until you had to throw the f word out there, next time watch your potty mouth
Never met either one but from what I've heard I either want andegre or caseyballz on my team.
That's why no one wants me covering their back. I'm 0-42 in bar fights. My alligator mouth over loads my canary ass way too often.
That motherlover said "fun" and we don't have none of that as iowa wrestling fans, wrestlers or coaches.
It's not us Iowa fans having F##, it's obviously our Penn State friends that frequent this board to talk wrestling in a mature and reasonable manner.
The Iowa wrestling forum and the Iowa wrestling program is the most envied and despised in college wrestling. Personally, I wear it like a badge of honor.
If you doubt me... you only have to read the Cyclone or Gopher forums to verify that. Jealousy runs rampant. The coaches get criticized. Individual wrestlers get trashed. Some fans are pinpointed. I guess the old saying is true... Jealousy is the highest form of flattery.
While the Hawks haven't won a national title for a few years, it doesn't stop the envy. Chief's reference to the "cesspool" comes from an ISU poster who labeled us as such. Gopher fans continually reference some individual match result from the last decade where a Minnesota wrestler has beaten an Iowa kid. I call that the height of insecurity.
Everyone is chasing PSU right now. To me... there are only two programs with the potential to catch them, tOSU and Iowa.

Did you mean to post this on Craigslist casual encounters?
My buddy from MN said that Terry was "getting savaged" on The Guillotine for saying "Throw me" stunt. and "What's Iowa Saying?"
My response.
1) It's cool to have a National Champ
2) Let's have some fun. (I mean who doesn't enjoy a good throwing?)

I read that thread. The envy up there is embarrassing! They have a similar mindset to ISU in that they would rather see a Hawkeye lose more than cheer a Gopher victory.
Hell, they still bring up Ness' win over Dennis and the Brancale pin of Gilman several years ago. Nothing like living in the past.
