Ok. I will probably get blasted for this but I really don't care at this point. I don't know what tourny some of you people were at but it wasn't the same one that i was at. I thought that the reason for all the remote weigh-ins (which i don't feel can be used due to the lack of integrity in some adults) was so that the tourny could be started on time. But then i also understand that some were allowed to walk up and register (which is fine but don't say "no walk ups allowed and then let select wrestlers in. It's not fair to the others) Don't tell people friday weigh-ins from 6-7:30 only and then allow another club to weigh in on thurs. it's not the wrestlers fault but to my understanding the coach had already been told that it was not allowed and went ahead and did it anyway. What about a 1 1/2 - 2 hour delay. I thought that the remote/early weigh-ins were to prevent this. Trackwrestling can be a wonderful thing, although I have yet to be impressed by it for freestyle/greco tournys. But there comes a time when a pencil and piece of paper seems to make more sense. I won't even go into one of the biggest opponents of freestyle/greco spending running our state tourny. You can all call me all the names you want-hothead,loudmouth, idiot whatever you want but someone has to start saying something about the state of our sport. It seems that every year there is less discipline and integrity in our sport and it is very sad. So go ahead and blast away.
