Talk:Matt Lindland

message: what i said about matt lindland receiving his nickname "the law" was accurate , why was it deleted and called vandalism?
:Wikipedia requires that material be cited from reliable sources, so even if the nickname origin is true it has to be sourced. I've removed it pending a reliable source. MrVibrating (talk) 22:31, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

I have removed this in accordance with the living persons biography policy as it is controversial and entirely unsourced.

thread_title:  UFC Contract Dispute 

message: There was a statement saying Lindland won the Big 12 Championship in 1993 and became an All-American. This implied that Lindland achieved Div1A All-American after winning the 1993 Big 12 title. That was a misleading statement. He was actually a Junior College National Champ in 1991, and hence a Jr College All American in 1991. 
Lindland's senior year at Nebraska he was undefeated and the #1 seed in the 158 pound weight class, but he lost his first match. He was unable to participate in the consolation rounds because the wrestler who beat him (Earl Walker- Boston University) lost his next match. Mr Lindland failed to become All American any of the years he wrestled at Nebraska (Div1A). I'm providing a reference to the brackets for the 1993 wrestling tournament.
