We already submitted to having weights pared down. We should be demanding those weights be reinstated. |

We should have been just as incensed about losing the weights as we are about losing wrestling. |

We should have been more supportive of womens wrestling and we might not have been deemed unworthy of staying |

There's just no reason to cut a men's weight |

This is why I could care less if wrestling is reinstated in the Olympics. Put our sport in the hands of people who KNOW and CARE about the sport of wrestling... Not polo, field hockey, squash, and 20,000 varieties of watching Michael Phelps win. Let us take over. Let us alter the rules to a sustainable, fun level. Let us reinstate weight classes that had no business being taken away. |

I agree Cropduster! We just let it happen when they cut weights. We are conditioned to take crumbs. We do the same thing when we start wrestling "clubs" at colleges. We need to demand respect and support our sport. |

I agree with much of it. When they took away weights we should have told them to stuff it. Better to go out with your pride intact than to be squeezed like we are and go out with a whimper!
