If you continue to be a member of this discussion forum, you are going to have to understand one thing: not all wrestlers, wrestling fans, wrestling coaches, wrestling parents, or wrestling officials are Ernest Hemingway. Many of them are not even close, but that is alright. Every one of them is passionate about the toughest sport that an adolescent or young adult can compete in. I do not grade them on their writing skills, I grade them on their loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity and personal courage. These are the seven core army values, and as long as they emulate these values, I am appreciative of their service in the sport of wrestling. Some of us stray at times, I know that I have, but in the end, there are few communities of practice that emulate these values in a manner that the soldiers of our military could be more proud of.
