They've climbed the mountain, and Logan will be gone, so why accept a course that's only downhill? Ah yes, April is the cruelest month.        Discussion Topic: Ohio State University to start tiddlywinks, drop wrestling Hank Kornblut added to this discussion on April 1, 2015 Quote from Shel Harper's post: "I think OSU's decision to drop wrestling is smart.

Well done, Shel.        Discussion Topic: Ohio State University to start tiddlywinks, drop wrestling Mark Niemann added to this discussion on April 1, 2015 I was actually pretty good at tiddlywinks. I was better defensively than offensively. My squopping skills were unmatched in the tri-state area. And that's when I ran into the regional champion Doug Michaels. His use of a composite squidger instead of a pure plastic one made my squopping non-existent. As an aside, in the late 1960s, my grandfather was recruited by the North American Tiddlywinks Association (NATwA) while attending Waterloo Lutheran. He was REAL good. He used to tell us stories of taking on some English players who came across the pond while he was in college. He never told us how it went, but I assume they lost because he would always mumble under his breath "Prince Charles is a cheater..." It was a short-lived career but eventful, he'd say.        Discussion Topic: Ohio State University to start tiddlywinks, drop wrestling Justin Hayes added to this discussion on April 1, 2015 Quote from Mark Niemann's post: "I was actually pretty good at tiddlywinks.

Reminds me of the 1195 regionals held in southern Virginia. Of course, on the national scene, hotel ballrooms get rented. This was obviously a level of a friendly.        Discussion Topic: Ohio State University to start tiddlywinks, drop wrestling Doug Brandt added to this discussion on April 1, 2015 Thanks.
