[Snackem]

let's slow down handing 74 kg to burroughs for the next cycle. i'm sure lots of people expected kemp to hold the spot forever after beating out dziedzic, enter dave schultz. then it's schultz's spot, enter monday. then it's monday's spot, return schultz and a year of koll. finally back to monday.

Feel free to post your predictions anytime you would like. . .

Crazyer things may have happend at some point than Burroughs not making the team again, but at this point he's the best wrestler in the world. He's undefeated in international competition and just won an olympic gold

Not saying its impossible he loses out, but it definitely doesn't seem like the smart bet at this point

Will JB even be able to make 74kg in 4 years time?

If they havent figured out how to beat Burroughs by 2016, Iran may just end everything and start A-bombing everyone.

It was him that qualified the weight. I remember watching it on flo. I have full confidence that if he really wants to continue, he can earn a spot. That guy is relentless. I really hope he gives it another shot. But I fully understand the need and desire to move on if that's what he needs to do. I just hope it isn't what he needs to do.

I don't have that confidence in Metcalf. Unfortunately I think he has peaked and will never be a serious Gold medal threat.
I think someone like Oliver has more upside potential.

You may be right, I just like watching him wrestle. I will be rooting for him to make the team over Oliver even if Oliver has a better chance to medal.
