I would love for Tervel Dlagnev to shut up the I (ee)...RAN... I(ee)...RAN chants. It's like...could you come up with a new cheer and get rid of the 3 bleeps of the stupid horn at the end.

Komeil GHASEMI (IRI) df. Zach REY (USA), 3-1 Iranians win. Can't understand why Tervel didn't go??

If TD was hurt it had to have been in a meaningless match against Mongolia. Rey had 0 offensive effort. Sad. Varner had 0 offensive effort until the last 10 seconds. Gotta shoot to win Son!

USA Wrestling released a statement that Tervel Dlagnev was injured and didn't go. Same with Ed Ruth who was
the #1 wrestler at 86kg. Injured. Came up big on Saturday with 16 unanswered pts against the reigning silver
medalist in the Olympics from Cuba. Beat the Cuban 22-13.

Maybe Varner has been watching too many Iowa matches? Well... At least he got it done when he had to!

Is this a for real trying to take a dig at Iowa? If so, I feel like it's falling a little flat..

Well Mr. Metcalf seemed to do a great job.
Also Tony Ramos did a good job and thought he was robbed in the Iran match but that is how it goes sometimes.
Also Mr. Varner did a great job.
My self sure wish Ruth and DT did not get hurt USA could have easly won the gold this year.
Just keep on a working and improving USA will get there just a matter or time.
