Kurt, there are far more people who are very grateful for what you and the 2 other gentlemen did at the Iron-horse tournament. Don't worry about the internet haters. They are like roaches. Lurking in the dark, most likely unemployed, living in their mothers basement. |

Thanks, Joe. This was my first time doing a coverage for flo and it was a definite whirlwind experience. To try and cover the hometown kids as I was asked by many parents as well as other key matchups was a hard task to handle. Down the road I am sure my ability to complete coverages will improve and we will provide a more comprehensive footage, but it has a 3 man show out there last weekend and we filmed nonstop for the duration of the event. i hope those who understand what goes into creating a coverage enjoy the content we have uploaded. |

Not to be a troll or anything, but just to be clear. There are or aren't any more videos coming for this tournament? A little bit confused. |

By the way Tim. I see 22 videos that Louie contributed to the coverage. He is on the home page leader board as one of the biggest contributors this month alongside Ed and Kurt (the 3 guys that were filming at Iron Horse). |

Perhaps if this was a revenue producing technique wave page there would have been more effort for complete coverage. Just a hunch. Obviously you cant capture every match, but to use that as justification for not covering half the kids at the tournament make little sense. Is this not a FLO National Major now? I think you guys might have slipped up a bit on this one. But you guys do great things so it is what it is. It's just funny because Louie did the same exact thing last year and never posted his videos for this very same tournament.If you add up the hours put in to this coverage I am sure you would be surprised. Sometimes I think people are under the impression that all you have to do is hit enter on the keyboard and all the sudden there is a page full of videos. I am still amazed that the tech wave card is still being played as a negative. Ironhorse is definitely a major. It is one of the most concentrated events out there talent wise. Many times all you get for majors is the finals. Finals make it easy because there is 14 straight matches on one mat at a set time. In this case, a round robin tournament, there was no clear set for the finals. The guys that put in the time parked on a mat and filmed as much as they could. Again, a more demanding task than you would imagine. I see 89 matches in this coverage which means there are more matches than normal and more names on the page. I agree that it would have been nice to get more matches. More coverage is always better, but by tearing it apart you might as well be discrediting the guys that made it happen. |

Good post Joe. The wrestling community appreciates all the time, energy and effort FLO and the people within FLO expend to make it possible. They have almost single handedly, exponentially increased the amount of national coverage and awareness for out great Sport. Mostly for free, I might add. So lets give them some slack for a simply over sight. They happen, we are all human, mistake are made. |

I think all tournaments should just stop at 150...who really cares about anything else? Sweet Half coverage FLO..you guys are slippinNow I know that you have never attempted a coverage before. There are close to 100 matches, interviews with some of the best from the tournament, and breakdowns of many brackets. Besides Russian Nationals, Flo has never been able to capture every match or competitor for that matter. The guys that put this coverage together spent all day filming before going home and putting in the extra time to copy, name, and upload the matches. It is not an easy task, it takes a ton of energy, then we take heat from people that have no idea what they are talking about. I see that you have no respect for people who spend their energy providing you with wrestling coverage. |

Louie confirmed that there was no camera on Mat 4. So, 1/4 of the kids were ignored. Bad form. |

Is this coverage seriously going to stop at 150? Anyone out there want to finish what they started or just keep everyone hanging in the wind? |

Louie and Kurt will have more matches uploaded as soon as they can. Kurt got a lot of action on mat 2 (Ashnault vs Cruz) - Louie was in the other gym and should have a bunch of the upper-weight matches. |
