i don't think you will ever see the finals wrestled one match at a time. That would take about 6 hours to run all 3 matches. I'm pretty sure there is not an additional 4 hours in the schedule.

Not so sure that you've earned anything here except your reputation. That said, I really harbor no ill feelings towards you at all. I was just scared when I saw that "The" in front of your name. Made me feel a bit inferior so I decided to start using it too. I might even get me one of those spinny smiley things. The blowthewhistle

Not sure what you are talking about in the first part, but for sure you are mistaken in the 2nd part. Reload and try again. The blowthewhistle

who was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct and what did they do?

OMG He has actually added a "The" in front of his name. Lord help us.

TSSAA doesn't name the "all wherever" teams in wrestling. It's either the coaches or a newspaper that do it in each area.

Cue the Aerosmith music. "Dream On...Dream On.....ah ah ah ah ah"

OK....no problem with that as long as it is approved by the referee. I must have gotten soap suds in my eye during the whole donkey washing thing and didn't comprehend what the original question was. Arm sleeves, as described by megamom, are fine. Long sleeve shirts are not. Now I have to get the extension cord out so I can blowdry the donkey...he's cold.

I agree. You've lost so you should be quiet. Again, what part of the rule don't you understand? Oops...my donkey got out of the tub again...gotta go.

Wait and see...it will be enforced, just as it has been enforced in years past. Ask them to post here again after re-reading the rule. They will more than likely change their tune. Long sleeves are not allowed by rule, tight fitting or not. Some where probably allowed to wear them last year during the regular season simply because the official didn't know the rule. It was strictly enforced at the state tournaments last year. Unfortunately, contrary to your beliefs, not all of the officials know all of the rules. Excuse me while I go give my donkey a bath.

The rule hasn't changed. Quote is from this year's book and for sure it was exactly the same last year and the year before. It will be enforced as it always has been. They might be a little confused since their statements about tight fitting and approved by the referee are correct. The only thing they overlooked was the long sleeve part.

What part of the rule do you not understand? The officials that have commented obviously didn't refer to the rulebook when they posted. Pretty simple really.

Not allowed: Rule 4.1.1(a) Art. 1.....Wrestler shall wear: a. a sleeveless shirt fastened at the crotch and cut no lower in the back or front than the level of the armpits and under the arms no lower than onehalf the distance between the armpit and the belt line. If sufficient reason is determined by the referee a tight-fitting, short-sleeved undershirt of a single, solid color unadorned with no more than one manufacturer’s logo/trademark/reference may be worn under the sleeveless shirt
