P4P rankings?

Youthcoach,

The ref's a cheater and/or an idiot? Football just ended? An injury to his arm? I have absolutely no horse in this race, but Wow! You are the epitome of the biased fan/family member or whatever. Just pitiful that you have an excuse ready for every Loss. I can only assume that a competitor like Blake will be embarrassed if he reads this. Do you have the same list of excuses for every guy that Blake has whipped through his career? I wonder if all of them had an injury or a horrible ref to blame also.

Sutherland is an amazing wrestler thats why he was a 2x state champion and won OW this year. I do understand he did just get back from football when he wrestled him at Cleveland, thats not an excuse thats a fact and that may or may not be the reason he wrestled him much closer later in the season.

I shouldn't have even replied . That is exactly why I don't make picks or predictions. Message boards can easily be taken out of context. Western wrestler made a statement I felt was in a hostile manner ( probably taken wrongly by me) bringing up two matches in the past. So I brought up all their matches and gave details instead of just picking two and saying he was pinned. I clearly stated you take the wins with the losses and that's part of it. There are extenuating circumstances at times but if the wrestler chooses to wrestle then he has to accept the outcome. I never said nor am I saying now he's better than the Bullards or anyone else being discussed for that matter. He nor I have ever shied away from anything as anyone who knows either of us would attest to. Ill leave you to argue with Cleveland enemies now and stay out of topics like these. It's much more fun just watching. Edited February 20, 2015 by YOUTHCOACH16

Youth coach,

 

Your insights are appreciated. We've all seen the inconsistencies through the years with refs down in Georgia, at least when it involves one of ours.

 

I've spoken with Blake recently and found him to be a no excuses kind of guy. He humbly told me in so many ways that he would like to have the talent Seagraves has, and how impressed he was with the way he handled the Bullard brother. I asked him about his bouts and he, Blake, was happy he could keep it close,,, again no excuses. Class Act!

Thx, Soms.. I didn't realize you two had met. Our great sport has produced a fine crop of young men who represent our state well I think. Nothing in life is quite as humbling as wrestling.

Yes, great sport with good people. It appears Tennessee is getting more exposure lately and is in an upward trend from what I'm hearing from friends and family who get around.

Well said,Youthcoach.

I agree. By the way, I've enjoyed watching Blake wrestle. Tough!
