What a dumbass.

i'm thinking it was a no win situation for this kid. he fights her and wins, aw, you beat up a girl. loses? oh man....
so he doesn't fight at all, and still has people on his case.

The easiest solution is just to have a girls division. Could be a feeder program into the world of professional mud wrestling.

So he's basically a chicken. Either way, he forfeited because he was afraid of what people would think of him. You're right, he's a hero.

You think he was afraid of what people would think of him and that made him not wrestle? If he had just wrestled, win or lose, that would have been the status quo. You don't enter into the realm of what other people think until you do something controversial, which he did by walking away from the match.

Read Danzig's post and then you'll understand what I said.

The point is there's nothing wrong with wrestling against a girl in a competition. There was no reason for him to forfeit and the religious reasoning is hilarious.

Good for him!

I read what she wrote and I read what you wrote and it looks like you're both inferred something that wasn't really apparent from the story we're getting. There was nothing about whether he was concerned about winning or losing, nothing about him or his family caring what anyone thinks, just the religious objection. Based on their respective records this year, I can't imagine he backed out because he was afraid to lose.

i don't recall ever saying he was a hero. why do people think things are either one extreme or the other?? at any rate, i believe my point was that this kid was never going to please everyone regardless of what he did. wrestle, get grief. don't wrestle, get grief. apparently he decided to please himself, and to hell with whoever didn't like it.
