I hate to say it. Maybe Jason should just get the knee fixed. Sure surgery takes him out of contention for the trials but wrestling is not a sport where you can go balls out, against some of the best in the world, while protecting a bad knee.
He is my all time fav, and looked awesome against Cenzo. Short the injury I thought he was going to surprise the world and make it, but now against that gauntlet???
Maybe he just wants to make the team as a training partner. Yanni is rubber man and may have been able to win NCAAs with a torn ACL, but NCAAs is not the world and folk is not free.
His choice of course and I am his biggest fan but it seems that might be the same knee as 2018. Time alone might not heal all wounds. The timing sucks for both him and Cassar.

Five of ten Greco team members are from the Army or Marines! That’s a big percentage.
BTW, is Matt Brown still wrestling?

Bo had an awesome comeback to win. I think he was down and came back to win 13-12, don’t quote me on the score. His quarter he got teched 10-0 in the first to an Iranian. That same Iranian went on to pin Snyder in the semis after being up 4-0 (8-0 after the feet to back). Snyder won by forfeit against Bo for bronze.

Snyder is wrestling for Bronze later today, I believe--the forfeit was the repecharge semi.
Bo gave up 10 points on his 3 attempts to double-over/trip the Kazak but still managed to win 13-12.
Bo watched Kyle pack for the trip and knew he had brought Hell with him.
I haven't seen all of the results. Can anyone tell me if Gable Steveson wrestled? I thought I heard he was heading to Rome after their match with Wisconsin. If so, how did he do?
I don't ever remember seeing Bo gas like that. It puts me in mind of David Taylor's first competitions at 86 kg.
No Steveson. The early reports were that he was going, but they said on BTN during the broadcast of the Minny/Wisconsin dual that he had changed his mind.
I think Tony Nelson was 0-1 for the day, for what it's worth.
Here's some good news for the good guys
Possibly the result of this being a Ranking Series event. Points awarded by UWW, which affect Olympic seeding. Most likely USA rep benefitting.
It looked a little fluky. Snyder shot but somehow lost balance and got flipped onto his back
just want to make it CLEAR!!!!, The Iranian that beat Snyder and Bo just returned from a 4 year ban from steroid use!!!! And He looked like he was on Steroids!!!!! do they test ?????
To be accurate, it was 4-0 when Snyder kept pressing and got thrown to his back. So the 4-0 became 8-0 on that feet to back combination, then the fall came off that throw. He had a lot of trouble getting on his offense and took a lot of tough shots.
Vodka's accusations don't need past positive tests.
Dear diary,
Please let me never write false equivalencies. Especially those I don't really understand, nor comprehend in the first place.
As much as I would like to look cool in the moment, please stop me.
Best regards
Present time me
Also, when life gives you lemons, you can make lemon pie!Don't worry LP. The sun will rise again tomorrow.
