I was talking awhile ago. I watched the Tito Ortiz vs Frank Shamrock fight from UFC 22. this morning. I had it on a dvd. Ortiz was doing well for most the match, but tired. At the end of the fourth period, Shamrock had a flury and then Ortiz shot and got Shamrock on his back. Shamrock got a choke from his guard and turned Ortiz over. Then, Shamrock got some elbows and fists to Ortiz's right side of his head when Ortiz was on his knees, and Ortiz was done. He stayed down. Ortiz also isn't the light heavy champion anymore. He lost to Randy Couture. I am not sure when, but he now is 9-3 un UFC. Couture is 9-2 in UFC alltime. I wanna say Ortiz's other loss was either Mezger or Bohlander.

That is unbelievable. That takes talent to play drums like that. Ain't it the Lars guy who's a prick about downloading songs though?

I don't know who I am thinking of. I know someone lwhos a stud ost ta lil Shamrock. It's on tip my tongue. It's going to bug me too.

Bad Boy From Huntington Beach, Tito Ortiz. Best fight we never got to see was him vs Vitor Belfort. Belfort's my fav. Fastest hands ever. I have a dvd where he just crushed a then undeated Vadalai Silva. It was awesome. The Real Pro Wrestling is not quite 'normal' wrestling. Points are more easily rewarded. I believe it is a point if you lift the other guys' leg. I hated Shamrock. f*** the Lion's Den. Ken was one of the main figure in UFC, but he should be done. He shouldn't even think to fight Ortiz. Tank Abbot was pretty insane back when he was younger. Saw a few fights where he completely creamed some guys. But no one compares to Tito Ortiz. Belfort woulda beat him but put his elbow throw a window when he was training for the fight. Didn't Ortiz lose ta the little Shamrock? I don't memb.

No, people tried to create a wrestling where it was a variation of Olympic style wrestling, but a lil glitz and glamour. It sucked ass. It's scoring was different and everything. They were just trying to make real wrstling mainstream, but never worked. Some of my friends are huge in ultimate fighting. They especially love to fight each other in just brawls at someones house and stuff. I love watching the stuff, but my style wouldn't work well in it. I know two kids who have actually done it, there is a training place not far from my home. Those are all the nuts though. A buddy of mine is friends with Tito Ortiz cousin (For some reason I called him Maddux). We all went to this sparring session about half hour from my house and Ortiz was doing it. It was insane how quick and powerful he was. Those guys got some serious balls. He's UFC's boy now. That is awesome. I'd love to see him spar. They are all nuts.

He went to same trainer I did. I know he's going to Eastern. I am not sure if he went to Fargo this summer. Fargo is the biggest national tournament, the Asics Vaughan National Freestyle and Greco-Roman Championships. I know he didn't wrestle greco. He may have wrestled freestyle, I decided only to go greco. I know what your talking about him wrestling in, the top senior at each weight in state. What weight was he again. I am thinking 160 for some reason and I am too lazy to go look.

No, it's not that close. We had to travel awhile for that tourny. They always send a decently strong team down state, normally a placer or two. Our most famous wrestler from there is Lindsay Durlacher, state champ in junior high and high school (103 for Buffalo Grove HS) then All-American for Illinois. He wrestled for NY Athletic Club and is competing to go to next Olympics. He wrestles in that Real Pro Wrestling crap too.

Anti-Cub or something Sox on back, it's all good.

Where ya wrestle? last year eisenhower junior high school in darien. Most likely this year downers grove shouth Ya know Rusty Koenig and Kit Kopach. I wrestled Kit when I was in 7th grade, lost 14-12, and Rusty in the wrestlebacks at state my 8th grade year, he got 4th, I got 6th. That's a good program there. yes i do, rusty got 2nd in state, kitt is older bother of Carter and Kyler who I know very well from being on their team last year. Theyre studs. Yeah I forgot about the little Kopachs. They are studs. Ya guys ever see Cooper Middle School other than at state. We were in your sectional my 7th grade year.

Don't look at it that way though. Wrestling is the greatest thing in the world. It helps you think along with the sports part. My parents thought the same thing, but after a while they fell in love too. Wrestling creates alot of opportunities aswell.

Who ya talking about?

Holy s***, no way. I know the salary thing is big, but what is happening?

It's my life and I don't know if ya noticed but I love talking about it. Ha.

Oh yeah, if ya didn't know, wrestlers are infamous for being 'dirty.' It is a stereotype because I am certainly cleaner than anyone who is not a wrestler. Wrestlers can get ring worm, impetigo, shingles, herpes, falicalitus (sp?), and scabbies. This is more towards older wrestlers and wrestlers who don't shower. Ring worm is oddly enough just as in common for cheerleaders. They cheer and tumble on those mats which are never cleaned. Another myth is about the ears. The califlower ears. I have wrestled for as long as I can remember, and my ears are not overly hard and don't show any califlower. I have never had them drained either. It is only the kids who constantly play with their ears 24/7. It's also only in high school and up.

Yeah it's matches. It really isn't many worries for younger wrestling. Some of my friends younger siblings wrestle, I'm talking ten years old and younger. I can't see his team making any cuts. As I said my junior high had over 100 kids on the team. If they came out, they made it. Just let him know it's all about fun now. Good luck.

They all seem to have pretty good matchups. Rice is normally a safe pick, Morgan plays a Raiders team that the Bears threw a little on and Couch looked good, Walker is good, but only the third reciever, Driver is their main man. I am not sure between these guys.

Where ya wrestle?

Junior high wrestling was and is great. Don't worry about any of the weight issues or skin issue. I never got ring worm until I was in high school. Most kids don't even cut weight in high school, cutting weight in junior high is unheard of. In junior high you just go and what you weight is fine with the team. It is just fun at that level. They work on basics and it is very easy to pick up. Over the years I have wrestled, I know easily hundred of variations on moves. I wouldn't be so dissapointed he gave up basketball for wrestling. Wrestling teaches so much off the mat aswell. It teaches great discipline and commitment. The junior high I went to now has 100 kids yearly on it's team. One thing I would make sure of is that he showers when he gets home. Alot of kids go home after practice, and run around the neighborhood with their friends in the same clothes they practiced in. For him it should be fun at this level. Everyone I know who has gone out for wrestling and put in effort, not just gone out and didn't care, loves the sport. Also, if he comes home and says he is getting beat and has no confidence, just let him know it happens to everyone. I have seen so many kids have trouble getting over that so-called barrier. You'll start to love wrestling if he sticks with it too. My parents started with me and my brother (2 years older than I) and they are very firmilar with the sport. If you ever has any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Just a little about my wrestling. I started wrestling in 4th grade. I tagged along with my brother who was starting junior high wrestling and went to camps with him. I wrestled at Cooper Middle School (6th-8th grade; 75lbs, 85, 100) where I qualified for IESA state each year, placing 6th my 8th grade year. I wrestled varsity at St. Viator High School for four years. I was 15-9 at 112 (fresh), 26-6 at 125 (soph), 24-5 at 130 (junior), and 30-7 at 135 (senior). I was a two time sectional qualifier and two time all ESCC (conf champ junior year). I never qualified for state because of some mistakes I made. I walked on to the Michigan State wrestling team this year. They were a top 5 team in country last year and beat the likes of Iowa last year in a duel.

Who has done the best so far this season? Who do they each play?

Keep running the ball, please. I have the A-Train in both my fantasy football leagues.

I think if he gets in the right situation, he'll be fine. He was batting behind Barry for a little. I think if he has only little pressure, like he'd have here, he'd be a great pickup.

Ya gotta go for Boston and Florida. I couldn't understand any Sox fans not.
