If wrestling coaches had to dress like baseball coaches

[AgaveMaria]

Baseball coaches dress in the uniform of the team. Probably the only sport where this is required.

If wrestling coaches had to show up matside in a singlet - some fans might be scared to show up to watch the duals.

Mark Manning in a singlet?

Some would not look too bad but then...

Coaches dressed as pro wrestling managers would also be pretty cool.

What if posters were required to use a current singlet pic as their avatar, vetted of course by Bob & Du.

Long-time Indianapolis area high school coach Jim Tonte (currently Franklin, IN) always keeps it fancy with caps & feathers, shiny jackets, zoot suits, etc, for big matches and state finals. Didn't find images of some of his best work, but here are a couple recent examples.

What if they had to undress like Mongolian wrestling coaches?

Harbaugh wears cleats. I'd like to see wrestling coaches in wrestling shoes. Better for the mats.

Probably be an advertisement over half of it...

He wears cleats everywhere, though. There's a legendary story about a time Harbaugh wore cleats during an in-home visit and scratched up the recruit's floors . Rumor is that he does it because of some sort of incentive from the Nike/Jordan sponsorship.

Shillie approves of this post.

I prefer that posters have to make weight before posting.

Of course, that would shut me up for the next couple of decades.

Making weight is easy - as long as it isn't what we wrestled in College.

Yes making weight has been easy post-college, losing weight is the hard part

[jdalu75]

Losing weight is simple.  Finding it again is even simpler.  I've been losing and gaining the same ten pounds for a decade, at least.

But did you find any other weight?  Have you check to see if it moved around?

Insert gratuitous Chris Perry insult.

Oh, it's definitely moved around!  But I'm fortunate in one way -- I lost twenty pounds before I began losing and finding ten.
