Olympic Wrestling Trials

Glad I deleted the pre-sale emails. Besides the travel, I would've tried to be a solo and had to have bought two tickets for the privilege.

You are a lot smarter then me. 1 hr 22 minutes in trying. I can see the seats available per section, when i click on it, it tells me it is loading seats then nothing.

I was hoping someone on the group had a work around.

Where can I get a TV Guide these days for April. :rolleyes:
 
on a whim I checked around 6pm last eve (Friday) and 2 seats popped up in the lower bowl... out of weakness i jumped on them and will now be watching this event live with my kid. Oh well - cooped up with COVID causes a need to 'get out'! :cool:
 
We just got reimbursed this morning according to our credit card. $314.00 SO if you haven't you might want to check with Penn State Athletics Monday.

It’s crazy time to move B1G and Olympic trial out of PA!! Move it to a state where at least a couple thousand fans can attend. Wolf and the B1G commish need to actually talk to Doctors that understand the real issues with Covid! No damn reason we can’t have 2000-3000 at the BJC!
My daughter went to PSU undergrad ( Pre med) and Temple Med. it’s BS. Hell, move it to South Dakota. They are least have a Giv that understands science, medicine and the implications of a 12 month lockdown. We have Wolf, the Tranny and Dementia Joe! At least the Tranny is Biden’s now!
Hell do like D3. They moved their tourney to Coralville, Iowa !! New smaller arena. Get it off campus and wrestle!
I said to H with PA, got a rapid Covid test abd got out of PA. If we can’t watch sports in person, I’ll just spend 2-3 weeks in StThomas at Sapphire Beach!
Fly back Wed , at least can watch it on BTN.
If the crap continues, move everything out of PA!! Move tournaments to an out of state location. B1G and Dem govs have out conf on lockdowns! Enough.
Pathetic, when parents can’t even attend !’
Take it to the Covid thread.

This is such a spot-on impression of some of the wingnuts on the dumpster fire thread. You captured it perfectly. Bravo!

Well, at least you managed to keep politics and sexual orientation phobias out of that rant.

thanks for this! also, since i know i was curious, they WILL be wrestling true second place matches if necessary.

do we think anybody is going to lose at NCAA's, win at LCQ, and make a run at olympic team trials? my guess would be someone at 97kg since the LCQ should be pretty light at that weight
 
Any American who gets a Chinese covid vaccine is nuts
However, this will probably be a politically correct way to get an approved vaccine from Moderna or Pfizer without appearing to be jumping the line.

Not just any American.

Two middle-aged Hong Kong residents have died of strokes within days of the Sinovac shot.

No other vaccine has had any issue remotely this serious.

Uh, I’m reading headlines about AstraZeneca-coincident blood-clotting deaths just this morning.

If we take any millions of people, some of them will die without warning. Taking two anecdotes and coming to a simplistic conclusion is not science.

I don’t trust the Chinese vaccines for other, transparency-related reasons, though.

I hadn't seen those, but that raises more points:

Several EU countries have halted that vaccine pending review. China is full steam ahead on Sinovac.

It could turn out that Sinovac is safe -- but nobody should trust their data or their in-country regulators' reports.

And there are multiple alternatives.

J&J enough said. Between the big 3 we will have more vaccine than people in the US within a couple of months.
