Having only recently watched my senior son finish his competitive wrestling career, I must say that Devast8r's comments hit home, as he has elequently and poignantly captured some of the very same thoughts and feelings that have consumed me for the last couple of weeks.

Reading his comments were uplifting and made me feel good about the investment my son and my family have contributed towards this noble sport. I too, believe my son's participation in this sport will serve him well in life.

Devast8r: Enjoyed your remarks!
