I guess I'll be the one to say... "An asshole, indeed."

Oh I know there aren't that many kids...but she graduated 2 years ago. She does still have some friends in school though so she may know/know of him.

Yep, I agree wholeheartedly. But it's the T.O. society we live in today.

I mean, it isn't really a win/loss on the record books, so who cares? I wrestled in high school and would have allowed this to happen as well. It means nothing on record, but to that kid, it meant everything.

If you can't see the kindness and decency in this story, you must be blind to morality.

You've called me out numerous time for being "the asshole" ...I guess the old saying of it takes one to know one proves true.Tobias Fünke;604787 wrote:I guess I'll be the asshole who says he wouldn't let anyone pin him intentionally, let alone win.

I applaud both coaches who arranged this match. And I especially applaud the young man who allowed the challenged athlete to "win" his only interscholastic match. The lessons learned in that gym that day will resonate long after any other wins from that match.

I think someone is being affected by this Christmas season. I've seen some non-Tiernan like posts coming from Tiernan. Another good one there, Tiernan.

Not at all. I just save my maudlin moments for more important occasions - guess I had to be there.

You are obvisiously a self centered insecure asshole that can't see the big picture in this great story.
Must be an internet hard***..........
