BobCorker Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 I think we need to get Cleveland wrestling its own soap opera! The melodramatic culture would be a hit! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys got robbed and he should have won that match". Don Elsea was watching and literally told us the call was wrong. Sometimes, it is exactly what it is. Score more points and it won't be left up to the refs. I've seen those Cleveland coaches in action. They fight hard for their guys. heck, Matt High throws more bricks in freestyle than any coach in the country. HA! Lol, fair but I am justified right? My challenge win rate has to be over 90% @CarlSpackler88. Heck I even won the challenge when I accidentally hit that official with the brick at 14U duals a couple of years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What can be done @clevelanddad? There is a massive shortage of officials now. What are you going to do brother? Suspend them? Fire them? Who do you get to replace them if that happens? There are good officials and there are bad officials, just like there are good coaches and bad coaches. What needs to happen is we have coaches challenges and video review. It is at every level from youth through the senior level. No reason we should not have it at the duals and traditional state tournaments.

And that will only happen if complaints are made. I think that is partly why we have a shortage on refs because some facilities have cameras and can review the call and refs don't like it when they're wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman328 Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 10 minutes ago, FrecoFanatic said: You could have made that point without attacking Josh. Well stated sir! That’s because he did want to attack JB. If review was the entire point, there was zero reason to put a coaches response to a bad call on here. And why that one in particular, if not to single him out? I saw a ton of questionable calls and more often than not, failure to make the call. So why just this one, because it’s obviously Bosken. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your solution of screaming at the refs from the table most definitely is not the solution lol. it’s the same with any sporting competition. There’s bad calls. It’s just gonna happen. The refs are human and they’re just interpreting the action they see. Losing your mind over it isn’t going to change anything though. all that said, my opinion on the call in the 126 final is that it was the correct call.

We couldn’t make the finals since we were booked at a show in Birmingham. You’d know if you watched the Pin-Tn podcast that said I’ve watched it back a few times on Flo. It was the right call.
