I have gone to the last 6 and never know until the end day.

Hey man I'm all for it.  More threads about other teams and less threads where the same 5 people go tit for tat ad nauseam about PSU/Iowa/tOSU/Cornell 

That is the biggest cop out and misconception in wrestling. Who is pushing Zahid in Tempe?  He is leaps and bounds better than anyone in the room. He is also 1000% times better than when he arrived in Tempe. If you don’t have it inside on your own,  nobody is going to get it for you. There are coaches in any of these rooms that can help get you there  

Well how would he know? He's never stayed at any place long enough or given any place a chance. And Kyle Snyder won a couple of medals while training in Columbus. It's not like he would be training in Vanuatu.
 

I am way onboard for a push out being a pt. Keeps the action in the middle

Tough one for Burroughs.  How about that shot/lace defense by Cox?!  I read a stat that he hasn't been taken down in over a year.  

Of course. That bruising style doesn’t cut it internationally. The matches are too close together. He will never medal. 

after practice he works 3rd shift down at the mill. Been there going on 20 years

Genesis 32:25...........................oldest sport ever!!!

I hear ya. I do. I am for making it optional and not mandatory. I always wore them and am glad I can wear ear buds. 

Beauty is in the ear of the beholder

I see your point. But parents that let there kids wrestle enough to get cauliflower ear don’t care that much if they get it. It’s a badge of honor. It says I am a bad dude. Parents don’t let there kids wrestle because they think it is too violent and they don’t understand it. They think it is safer to play basketball.

What Tom Ryan has accomplished at Ohio State is remarkable. 

Well stated. But parents thinking wrestling can be a path to MMA are just as delusional as little league parents hoping their son makes it to MLB. Regardless of sport, participation for youngsters is intended to provide valuable life experiences. Parents pushing their children into sports hoping for more, will likely turn off their child and ultimately be disappointed. 

for the love of all things Wrestling....get rid of Headgear, and have a neutral 3rd party review video challenges. Those are 2 definite easy wins

The real issue they need to be looking at is the implementation of third party review at all major tournaments, especially conference tournaments and NCAAs...

@madcat11 never a truer statement. Yes I have my team and yes I have favorite wrestlers, but I am through and through a fan of the sport and want nothing but the best for these guys...and gals.
