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.

I'm scratching my head why grown men are aligning so tightly to their opinions and "their guys", and when a literal "legend" chooses to retire, half of the commentary is about how he was "less than", thus attempting to diminish the guy.  
This constant breakdown of the individual in this sport is absolutely uncanny.  There's always something to nitpick and it's gotten beyond old.  This is yet ANOTHER reason why the popularity of the sport is a question mark, as there is a constant stream of this garbage.  I get it that football and other major sports have it, especially through the media, but it's a different equation when there are 300 million fans instead of 300,000 fans.  
Let's just celebrate in this and subsequent few moments of this announcement, that Logan Stieber is a legend on the mat, and fits the bill of an all-around "good person".  He's an fantastic ambassador of the sport.  Let's just leave it at that and stop all the various forms of butthurt. 

Even as he retires, half of the wrestling community sticks to their guns, refusing to spell Stieber correctly.

@_LogieBear_ Retires as one of the best of All-Time. 4x State Champ, 4x Big 10 Champ, 4x NCAA Champ, World Champ! Led HS team to state title, @wrestlingbucks to NCAA Title and @USAWrestling to World Team Title. He’s joining Freestyle staff & opening wrestling academy!

I read a book on it by Michael Obama. Now THAT is a man.

PSU has been bizarre tonight. They've only taken one shot through four matches.

Nolf can't get taken down or can't stall...how fortunate for PSU.

I'm upset they keep winning. 

Shakira the so called #2 seed upset, but good thing he was saved from Martin getting a look at him in the Bigtens

Apparently Shak will do anything not to wrestle MyMar

Man there is nothing in the world I enjoy more than watching the NCAA championship
