I'm with Gus.  If you choose to enter a sport with specific rules, don't expect the rules to change just for you.

But in this case - the rules state that for blind wrestlers-  the referee should blow the whistle whenever direct contact is broken between the two wrestlers.  So I guess he chose the right sport!

[flyingcement]

Blind people would face significant obstacles in competing in pretty much any other sport.  I like that we can provide them an outlet in our sport.

I recall when Mathew’s was a solid #1 national rank not to long ago.

Can anyone tell me why Miller didn't get the TD?  It's on the opposite side of the arena.

More energy and better commentary...that's just a dude there to take your job

[Rassling]

Bartlett better show more offense than that if he intends to keep on winning. 

[Le duke]

Bartlett must score more points in the last 20 seconds of a match than anyone in the NCAA. Just wild.
