I was hoping to see you there tonight. Probably saw the rain and said forget it. Beech defeated Springfield by a pretty wide margin. I don't remember the final score. Hendersonville defeated Beech 45-27.

I believe that's Gary Collins at 103 from Hendersonville, not Gary Morris. At 135 Belcher from Wilson Central is not Region 7. I believe Wilson Central is Region 5.

Okay I fell for it hook, line and sinker. Take a bow "mikescott". I feel like E.D. Ott now. I must say, however, that the fun and games went too far. You suggested the Maxwell boy cheated the hydration test, called another wrestler a thief, and made unkind reference to a UTC wrestler's past indicretions. Sure that may be something that the fictional character from The Office would have done, but that does not make it funny or acceptable in the real world.

aka P.C. Uhoff aka E.D. Ott (sorry, I couldn't resist)

aka Dick Lessman aka Schiffer Braynes

mikescott's true identity has been revealed. His real name is Bud Insky. He goes by other names, too. Ima Johnson I.P. Squatting Richard Head ("Dick" for short) and, as previously report, Morris Ron.

Would someone please shut this guy up?! He called a generous benefactor of wrestling a pimp, he made an unkind reference about "kool-aid" and a UTC wrestler, he suggests that there is widespread cheating in high school wrestling including pointing an accusing finger with no proof at a Karns wrestler. Does anyone else care to add anything? Oh yes, he just joined four days ago. I like Coach T. I look forward to the ideas and opinions, the rankings and the predictions. I also like the good-natured kidding among some of the members. Guys like mikescott (lower case used intentionally) need to clean up their act.

If you are not willing to back up your accusations then keep quiet. This is very serious. You are publically questioning the integrity of people. You are calling them liars and cheaters. It is very irresponsible. It puts a black eye on the athletes, the coaches, and the wrestling community. Wrestling is a gentleman's sport. A gentleman does not make accusations and call people cheaters and liars without having the stones to back up his claims. Last season there were 28 TSSAA state champions. You suggest that many of them cheated the hydration test. Who? Come on, scottie boy, who did it? Stop running your mouth and saying you know this and you know that and testers don't check very hard. I don't care how many state titles you supposedly won or how many years you wrestled in college. You are disgracing Tennessee wrestling with your suggestions and innuendos.

MBA has nothing to be embarrassed about. They have a fine team as always. I believe it ended up this way: 1st Nashville Catholic 2nd MBA 3rd Brentwood Acad. 4th Hendersonville Not in top four: McCallie, Dickson County, Cookville, and Franklin Road Acad.

I think this is completely out of line to come on here and make such statements. It is offensive and insulting. You got proof? You want to name names? If not you should keep quiet.

Mikescott what is with you? What kind of a question is that - "What percentage of state medalists do you think cheated?" How would anyone know the percentage? Who is going to make the accuasation? It is insulting! You seem to want to argue in all your posts and now this idiotic question.

Randysavage aka nitetime aka daytime, Take a bow! You had me fooled I have to admit. Razer

What?! This has been one of the toughest regions in the state! I had to go to the TSSAA site to make sure I wasn't mistaken. For dual meet competition Region 4 includes Bradley Central, Cleveland, Soddy Daisy and Ootelwah. For individual competition Region 4 includes Notre Dame, Red Bank, Soddy, and Ootelwah. How do you figure they need luck?

You know, I suppose nightime6 or daytime6 or whoever is right: If they want to come on here and run people down and talk nasty and be low class - an ignorant idiot jerk in general - they have that right. See you at state.

Okay, now I gotta put in my two cents. I had to wait a few hours to calm down after reading biotch's rant. (Forget you too, buddy!) The refs make bad calls sometimes. Coaches make bad decisions sometimes. Wrestlers make mistakes sometimes. When a wrestler messes up do we stand up and call him an SOB? When a coach makes a bad move do we all jump up and boo? Refs, like coaches and wrestlers, make mistakes but I am convinced that they don't make bad calls on purpose. Last year at the state individual tournament a wrestler was disqualified in the championship match because he repeatedly grabbed his opponents head gear. He was warned repeatedly, he was penalized and ultimately DQ'd. For crying out loud if a ref makes a call, don't repeat the thing you got called for or you'll get called again. Anyway, after the match who caught heck? The ref. Sorry folks but it wasn't the ref's fault! As far as playing God...what do you want, a timid ref? What's the ref supposed to do, call a side bar and get consensus from all interested parties? If there is one thing I cannot stand in any sport it is a timid official. Make the call and stick to it. Let there be no question in anyone's mind what the call is. Be confident. Being a ref takes a certain amount of arrogance. Without it the coaches and fans will destroy you. Go to one of the Middle Tennessee AAU middle school meets and see how some of the coaches bully some of the refs. It's pathetic! I have never been a ref, I don't want to be a ref, but I thank the men and women who are willing to do what it takes to ref for the TSSAA.

Is the H'ville kid ok? I didn't see what happened, but I hate to see any kid get hurt. Hope he's alright! The H'ville kid is ok. He has a concussion so he can't wrestle for two weeks. No other injury as a result of the match with the Harpeth boy. He and his family are disappointed but understand that these things happen. He'll be back next year.

"Official Complaining Thread" - I like that idea. So here is my complaint: I can't shake this cold I picked up over a week ago. Afrin spray helps but I can't seem to get over it completely!

TRUE! wasnt this kid undefeated???? is he still ranked state-wide??? Bray has him ranked 6th with no mention of Hendersonville's Trealor who PINNED HIM!!!

TRUE!

Dead! Come on now.

I owe Pilot Coach an apology. This has turned out to be an enjoyable subject to follow.

Pilot Coach, I find it odd that you would ask that question. It is almost certain to stir up a fuss in the Wrestling Mat community. Besides, who really cares what we think? Not TSSAA. Anyway, it will be fun to hear what others have to say about the officials. Personally, I think we have a great bunch of officials, but what do I know....

Which teams will participate in the Beech Tournament on December 19?
