2011 FloNationals

Is there going to a highlight video for Flonationals?

215 and 285 semis please!!!

It wasn't very exciting, he just got rode like a mule in the 3rd period and that was the deciding factor. Not much action otherwise other than Knowles adjusting his singlet straps every four seconds.

I hope Flo doesn't model anything from ESPN. ESPN is nothing more than the Football, Basketball and baseball network. They could care less about else.

Could you please post the 135 Semis? Thanks!

Name the time and place James, I will do to you what I did to Wesley.

When are the Wes Wesley videos going to be posted

One more thing about Flo vs. the other guys.

I have dreams about some ncaa champion coming off the mat and telling quent kesenich or whatever other know-nothing-about-wrestling goober espn has working the finals; "excuse me pal but I'm gonna go over here and talk to the Flo guys."

Now THAT would be cool.

While do people think they are entitled to anything from flo? It is not at is if you are paying a fee for their coverage. They do a phenomenal job bringing fans the best coverage week in and week out, and people still complain. Even if they immediately uploaded every single match all weekend, people would still find a way to complain. Fans need to stop taking this website for granted, and start appreciating it as one of the most valuable wrestling resources around.

Nick hit it with his comment that because of Flo, wrestling has grown.

When espn started they took the major network sports presentation model and expanded it to the 24 hour format. The Flo guys took that whole espn/abc/cbs/nbc way of doing things and threw it out the window so they could start from scratch.

The reason Flo is a little ragged at times and sort of shoot-from-the-hip at other times is because they're inventing a whole new sports presentation paradigm. Every time they do something, it's like a proof-of-concept exercise.

I personally love the way they do things. For me the biggest mistake they could make would be to get sophisticated or more 'professional'.

Their 'broadcast' of the Rutgers/Lehigh dual is a good example. They started before the match began, as the gym was filling up. So i'm sitting at home in front of the computer watching the guys warm up on the mat. Louie took a phone call from Gene Mills (i think) and PASSED it off to Bader. Now you just don't see that kind of stuff on espn and you never will. Roper and Fretwell did their early analyses in front of the lake out back for crying out loud! During the lead up to post-season tourneys while Roper did his analysis of a weight Fretwell was crushing empty NOS cans on his head. It looked like they did that at 3am because they probably did do it at 3am and it was AWESOME. And that's why i love Flowrestling.

Of course they could use some help in a few things but i for one don't want them to change the basic principles they've been using from the beginning.

Go Flo!

i guess to defend my post below (the one people are referring to as the "espn post")

i am bashing on flo (and i would really hardly call it bashing,) because i think it is about time this website really picks up. I see this website as a way to get wrestling back on the national scene (in case you didn't notice wrestling is a dying sport.) That cannot be accomplished with some of the stuff that currently goes on on this website. Hate me if you will, but someone has to say it. I love flo, i love that i can watch all the wrestling i want, but i don't think it is promoting the sport for new comers like it could be.

Why be satisfied with something that was great 5 years ago? time to step up, and really get things going. When i compared Flo to ESPN i meant that flo should model itself off of their website in terms of order/professionalism/and clarity. Do you think wrestlers are the only athletes that want to broadcast their sport in a goofy "different" kind of way? Hell no, but if we had some of the clowns that work on this website working on basketball/football you name it the sport would become a laughing stock.


If you are content in letting wrestling remain in the darkness forever, lets not make a single change to the one organization (flo) that can revitalize wrestling in america.

Again i am sorry if i offended anyone, this isn't a personal attack on anyone, simply a suggestion from a fan.

Would love to see the brackets updated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

show some love and post some of the higher weights also, you are still missing some quarters and like all the semis

Any chance you can post the Tsirtsis interview after the finals match? Thanks
