Carter is officially back

[bapsu_1]

Mmmmm. I ate at Zingerman’s in January while there for the Michigan beat down. It’s the only worthwhile thing about Ann Arbor.
Took some of their liverwurst, rye bread, and mustard back with me for a killer lunch while watching the MSU match at home.

Ate there numerous times - thought it was a bit overrated. I'd suggest Metzger's.

I mean seriously, was there ever a doubt?

 

[Chickenman Testa]

I mean seriously, was there ever a doubt?

I only had a sliver of doubt because the decision to not wrestle NCAAs made no sense given the history on the line.

It would be like me turning down Charlize Theron because she had an ugly big toe

You be the Judge!!

 

[APSPSUwrestlingfan]

You be the Judge!!

Given the evidence presented above, it's clear to me why i never saw her toes before! Everything above the ankles is smokin'. Show a photo with her wearing those shoes. Then we can stop imagining how great they make her legs look.

So, why did you turn her down?

 

[Chickenman Testa]

So, why did you turn her down?

She wouldn’t let me watch Penn State wrestling. Eff that!

 

[Dogwelder]

So, why did you turn her down?

Fear of her husband? 😀

 

[rll1957]

I for one am worried about Carter.

It is his conditioning following this injury. Hear me out,

This team is the best conditioned team in the NCAAs.

Why, dodge ball.

Carter with that brace will be slow as hell. He will get murdered playing for the next week and a half. These kids in the room are not the same kids Carter played against at Cathedral Prep. They will show no mercy. These boys are Division 1 athletes who have a different philosophy.

Carter’s lack of movement will screw his conditioning and the head shots he will take in practice will screw with his mental state. This is coming from a guy who was hit in the head constantly in gym class, I'd still be in concussion protocol if it existed in 1977. And our gym classes were co-ed!

I just hope that Bonnie steps up to the plate, I mean mat and stays hour after hour throwing dodge balls at him.

I know what you guys are thinking, either what a stupid post this is and/or you're thinking hey the kid had a broken hand and won Nationals. A broken hand affects the offensive side. Thowing is simple, But the broken knee, ACL, PLP, MCL, XYZ tears and the knee replacement this board has discussed will slow him down.

It comes down to Bonnie and her midnight dodgeball skills to get Carter his 4th.

Can we all just focus on the fact that the coaches and the doctors might be right. In all honesty they are doing their job by protecting the athlete athletes always want to play even when they shouldn’t. We were put on probation because we didn’t do the right thing now a coach does the right thing and people are pissed Carter is a time bomb of emotion thank god we have Sanderson

If there’s one lesson I’ve learned in this life, it is TRUST CAEL. Some folks still be thinking too hard trying to figure the why and how.

 

[CentexLion]

I truly pity the first guy that has to wrestle Carter in K.C.
Maybe we should start a Go Fund me account right now for that unfortunate soul.

Video of Nolf punishing Jordon on a bad leg with David Taylor commentary. Imagining the same leg brace on Carter and the anger is 10X that of Nolf's.

Noticed when he had Jordon's leg in the air in the beginning, and not direct sweeps with the leg (protecting the leg a bit?). But the strength to lift him, and once on the mat, no need to let him up and takes pressure off the knee

Match starts at 1:49

Nolf versus Jordon punishment

If the truth could be known, I'll bet AB and GK also had some influence on Carter's change of heart.

Wouldn't be surprised if Mark called him too.

I wouldn't want to see an ugly big toe next to her ear either, but I have more compassion than you.

 

[Cstroke]

Anyone want to see my big toe?
id probably be willing to sell a few pics… let me know.

I suspect no one had to talk to Carter and that he achieved clarity on his own. The dude is sharp, self-motivating, and goal-driven.

I find her feet more offensive than ugly.

Hope Carter is back close to 100%

Most likely, another outlet will beat me to posting the video. I gotta day job, apparently...

I thought this was a joke quote, until I saw the video below it. Carter always gonna Carter😅

[HikeNatParks]

Just watched Carter’s interview. Wow. Talk about thoughtfully owning and explaining impulsive actions driven by competitive emotion, this kid nailed it. Tons of respect for a young man finding solid perspective after a trying circumstance. Hard not to believe that with an hour or two between matches, he couldn’t beat all 32 other seeds, just like he says.

I love Carter! From the heart interview

The amount of respect he has for Cael is nice to see. Just like any family..arguments and disagreements happen and frustrations get the best of all of us at times.

He kept the door open for #5!!

I kind of want to see Bubba Wilson pulled off the alternate list and win the pigtail now. I’m not sure why

It's funny. Every time I think he's just about to go all Ricky Bobby and say something like "I piss excellence," he pivots and says something moderately humble.

 

[PSU Mike]

I told you about the tourney director ordering 5 body bags …

He cut Bubba's without even knowing, according to Manning. I could see Carter taking out Manning for Cael.🙂

Good thing Carter doesn't read GIA or else he'd know there is bad blood between him and Cael.

Yep..Gobblin with another great take!
