The best bet on the board is Montell Marion of Iowa @ +220. He has been in the finals before, and he has beaten Kellen Russell before, and had really close matches with him. I am going to bet that even though I hate him.

The field @ -197 is decent too, there are some good wrestlers in there. I like Matt Powless (Indiana) to make some noise in that division, and the Yohn of Minnesota is good too.

McDonough is only a slight favorite @ 125 despite winning it all his freshman year and losing to that 1-legged freak last year in the finals. He is probably going to win it. But I do think people are starting to figure his style out (he pretty much always goes the knees and tries to wrestle the front headlock position with his freakishly long arms). I don't really think he is that good, but he keeps winning.

Well those are shitty odds.

BOL............dumb odds coming out everywhere.

No way should Shogun be that big of a fav.

[SPX]

Damn, mega-shitty odds. Fuck that. Shogun should be like -250 at the worst.

I was hoping a -175 type of deal

Thats about the range I was guessing it to be.

Off on a completely different subject how many push ups ( done correctly) can you do?

I could do 56 when I was in the Army.

Now I bet it's more like 30.

Lol I don't know...I have done 75 straight before awhile ago when I did them out of boredom

Probably about 50. Pull ups are the real measure of strength to weight.

[Luke]

Cool, we were having a push up contest at school today (finals week boredom). I did 51 and was just wondering how pathetic I really was .

[SPX]

I think that anyone who can do 50+ is in pretty good shape as far as upper-body muscular endurance goes.

Anyone watching TUF this season?

Repped for boosting my self-esteem and not telling me I'm a wuss

Honestly, 50 is the upper threshhold of what I would be able to manage, and I would be struggling a lot to do that. I would be shaking and shit on the last 10.

A lot of your ability to do pushups and pullups depends on how much you weigh. I would think 50 pushups is in the top 10% of the population for sure.

Poopoo doing 75 while weighing 220 is impressive. Luke, doing 50 while weighing 180 is pretty da,m good I would think.
