This was a user video shot by someone who uploaded it, or just gave it to me to upload. Obviously no one is commentating, it's just some stupid rednecks talking during the match, mute the volume, no one from flowrestling would ever degrade an opponent, know our style before you judge.
You are an idiot bite me, have you ever heard anyone who represents flo even come close to sounding like how those guys sounded? Obviously its a couple of over zealous fans who were sitting nearby.
The people speeking aren't representatives of flowrestling. I know the floguys would never conduct themselves like the fools heared in the video. They used vulgar language and were rude and disrespectful.

Ok, so you that it is a matter of them getting excited.
I'll give you that, I understand as fans of wrestling we all can get caught up in the moment from time to time. But seriously if you get that excited over a Logan Stieber (who can put collegiate wrestlers to shame) win like that. Are you kidding me? I could understand if it were a close match, then excitement might take over, but this match was borderline manslaughter.
I could more understand something such as Tony Jameson's matches toward his fourth state title just one year ago. Maybe you remember those matches; the ones where every one in the Schott, except the refs, knew Jameson was pinned multiple times in different matches. ! One of the un-called-pins was even shown up on the monitor (the Jumbo-Tron). Now those instances would be ones in which I could see someone saying "he's flat" or "he's stuck". NOT a full-on, uneventful, clear as day, landslide of a win by one the tops in the nation over a mere state qualifier.
Do you really get that excited over such a match, where there is no doubt that that outcome was what it would be?
The kid already suffered a humiliating loss at the grand event of his career, let alone he doesn't need insult to injury by the media. I'm sure he knew he was going to lose prior to the match. Nonetheless, he doesn't need extra baggage by being picked on by people who should be otherwise more mature and professional.”
non of the things said during the video were said by the person doing the coverage, if you listen you can hear then ask "whats that" when the ref gave green a point for poten. dangerous. The guys that work for flow would never conduct themselves like the person speeking in the video, by cursing and taking a wrestlers side.
florida can beat ohio period??? really?? I wrestled and coached in ohio my entire life until i moved to virginia. when they found out that i wrestled in ohio, they found money to get me on their coaching staff. florida couldn't compete with ohio.....PERIOD!

I think it is funny that you care enough about what I said to try and defend yourself to the point of trying to insult me through a website. I see nothing wrong with the commentating. It is a couple of guys who are excited about watching one of Ohio's greatest and I am sure they mean no disrespect to his competitor. As for myself, I did qualify for the state tournament in 1999 in division I and I currently watch the state tournament videos online from Florida.
There is something to be said about the press. Respectable or not.
Up until today, flo has been completely respectable. I have appreciated the things flo has done. It is great for the wrestling community. Overall, flo is commendable. However, like that doesn't need to be said.
Pro and College Sports, there is leeway to where you can criticize an individual. High School Sports is not the place for it.
BooHoo, I am sure you appreciate such videos. Watching online videos is probably the closest you have ever been to the state tournament, let alone any real talent. Look long and hard, and watch greats like Taylor and Palmer, and weep in pity for your own pathetic self.
NOT!
Something to be said about not taking an angle and favoritism towards one wrestler. Surely, everyone knew Steiber would win, but press doesn't need to rag on his opponent.
Per the explanation I received from a ref regarding the exact same hold, it isn't illegal if the arm isn't up on the opponents shoulder. That is when the pressure is applied and becomes illegal.

I don't really care about the match. It's the principal behind it, you simple minded .
