    The fact that Aaron and other athletes truly believe that the Lord is picking them in this athletic event is the most narcissistic belief system I have ever heard. You think God almighty honestly cares about a wrestling match? You were an underdog and pulled it off. Very impressive but not an act of god. Jeez.

      You don't know that. I used to think the same thing but then I realized if DT won another olympic gold he'd go proclaim himself to the world when aaron wins he's looking at the whole world and professing Jesus so I could see how God does care about his people and their accomplishments/actions in life.

    I’m all for having your own religious beliefs and am a Christian myself. But the context here is a little much. Like David is supposed to become more of a Christian because he saw Aaron “walking on water.” I like Aaron and am happy for his journey but he’s going a bit too far. Just my opinion. Also, it’s competitive in the room at this level. Just what it is, people want an edge. Obviously he is talking about how Jimmy ran the room. I’d like to understand more regarding this.

    This is utterly disgusting and appalling: Aaron Brooks digging into David Taylor's rectum-that deep-is shocking and reprehensible. I am extremely disappointed and appalled by the recent match where Brooks resorted to such highly questionable and illegal tactics, specifically "oil checking." This act, which involves invasive and deeply inappropriate contact where one defecates, is not just illegal in the sport of wrestling but also a gross violation of the principles upon which sportsmanship is built.
    This tactic-where one wrestler forcibly invades the personal and private space of another, akin to inserting a panther paw into the opponent's singlet to disrupt their core muscle stability and concentration-is deeply disturbing. It's not just about the unfair advantage it momentarily provides by distracting or disabling the opponent; it's akin to the methods used to stop an aggressive animal. This behavior might happen accidentally in the heat of the moment, but the deliberate and deep invasion by Brooks with more than just one finger is a predatory act that degrades the sport's integrity and shows outright disrespect to fellow athletes.
    Actions like these not only pose a risk of physical harm but also tarnish the reputation of the sport. They send a dangerous message that could influence young, impressionable athletes, potentially putting our children at risk. This is not just a breach of sporting conduct; it's behavior that borders on the sexual violation of an opponent, something we should all stand against to protect our children and the sanctity of sports.
    Athletes, coaches, and officials must all hold themselves and each other to the highest standards to ensure that wrestling remains a respected and fair competitive sport. The governing bodies of wrestling must take stringent measures against such misconduct. There must be a clear message that such behavior will not be tolerated, with appropriate penalties applied to discourage future occurrences. Furthermore, this incident should lead to broader discussions about sportsmanship, the enforcement of rules, and the ethical training of athletes to foster an environment where fair play is at the forefront.
    This sport is about more than just winning. It's about how you play the game, how you respect your opponent, and how you honor the tradition of wrestling. Let's not allow the pursuit of victory to degrade the nobility of this great sport. We must demand better from our athletes and from the institutions that govern our sports.

I'm not sure how anybody could "manipulate" the practice or why they would need to do so in order to watch AB. I'm sure DT, Dake, Snyder, Gilman, etc are allowed to sit in the corner whenever they want during practices. I doubt Cael is forcing senior level athletes to follow a set schedule during practices.
