Re: Which Summer Olympic events are you looking forward to most?

@Mz iMac  Yes, to me it's just a business now, and like other Pro sports not something I follow.  Same with college sports.  I no longer am interested.

@SportyShorty07 - You were a trailblazer! Wrestling is a sport that will serve you well forever. I come from a very small family, but my late older cousin was the wrestling coach at his high school. I vaguely remember seeing pictures of him wrestling in high school, wearing the white "cap," but we didn't live anywhere near them and only saw them once a year or so. I was in 6th grade when he was a senior. 

 

My small high school didn't even have a wrestling team at all!

@beach-mom  Thank you very much, Beach Mom Smiley Happy! I really loved wrestling- it was so much fun to prove my skills on the wresling mat and learn new moves. I learned a lot about nutrition and strength training during those years and that sport helped build up my self esteem. That's really great that your late older cousin was a wrestling coach at his high school- I bet he really made a difference and made a great wrestling team to represent the high school. Smiley Happy. I went to a small high school too- I liked that the halls were never crowded.
