It always disgusted me that wrestling shows the least prestige of most high school sports. Its sad to see the lack of interest in humanitys oldest and most primitive, yet most demanding sport. To the people who talk it down, you have no idea what its about. The self discipline gained, self motivational skills acquired, self confidence and esteem and the overall integrity built up daily...there is no tougher sport! Mentally, physically or psychologically- to keep yourself going through the most gruelling scenarios over and again; struggling with everything to be the best you can; to not be the guy walking off the mat with his head hung low in defeat; to NEVER lay down and quit; it is admirable at the very least! If you have had a headgear on you know exactly what this is all about. If you lose, you know whether or not you deserved to. (you were the one who stopped running, who didnt do that one more pushup) If you win, you dont brag. (you know what the other guy went through!) When youre done practicing, you know, YOU ARE NOT DONE PRACTICING! This sport doesnt end when you walk off the mat, its a part of you for the rest of your life. Why not give it everything while you can. If you are a wrestler, you are a different breed. You are an animal, a beast, no matter how big or small! Wrestlers are the Marines of high school sports. Anyone who disagrees, why dont you go try a season or two out for yourself. So to all the tough guys out there, how tough are you really? To take a person your own size and make them say moooommmmmyyy, can you do it? Share this with the guy or girl who told you that you were gay for rolling around on the ground with another guy in tights. See if they can do it!! See if they will even try!!
