To the untrained eye this could look like he was counting back points, which would indicate a loss of control, but those of us from the "P" club schools can clearly see what happens when you try to preform when it's too cold.

Oddly the wrestlers seem to preform fine. A great wrestling match. Both are better off and apparently more able to shake off the deathly cold than a middle aged referee. Forget about what happened after the match. Emotions took over. Not unexpected when you put that much into it.


The above gets my vote for best post of the decade! ;-)
