With the World Cup right around the corner, let’s do a roll call. I can’t make it and am selfishly hoping some of the quality PBP guys are.
World Cup
- Thread starter choosenuetral
- Start date
Ill be there. Is there any information out there on this event? I was looking early last week and just about everything on the "World Cup Iowa City" website said something along the lines of more info to come. I found the schedule, but was wondering what the fan fest, or whatever they call it, would all entail and what the times on it were and where. Curious about the parking situation too.
I also read somewhere that you could change lineups up until a month before. Since we are past that date we should have a decent idea of other teams lineups shouldnt we? I couldnt find much anywhere though. I know a lot of foreign countries dont seem to care too much about the rules when it comes to these types of things, but I figured there would at least be something.

Wife and I, 2 college and 2 high school wrestlers from MN making the trip
Can any of you make 133 next year? Will be there with two others!
Have four going! Will be a BLAST. Hope CHA is rocking. Need to send a message to ALL Team USA this is the place to be!

Will be there with a group of 8 - working on my Russian and Persian language with the help of Rosetta Stone to assist with recruiting of ‘33 lber. I’ll let Gilman recruit the Japan team.
Let’s maybe teach him a few new words to refer to the Japanese wrestlers, then....
Doomo arigatoo gozaimasu!

More important question, who is eating lunch with Morningstar?
I wish Ramos had made the squad. It would be great to see him wrestle again in Carver.
He has the credentials as far as being a wrestler. Lots of things involved in being a head coach other than wrestling as I know you are aware. Maybe he has the teaching down but not all the other aspects that make a good head coach.
Just a guess.
If anyone should know his use of the asterisk, FT, it's you. . . .
Will be there with Dad. Is it April 7 yet?

Be back in a few, going to watch Lee destroy Mater and Suriano again. lol
Might watch him stick Piccininni just for laughs. Piccininni thought he had a shot.
