RE: My daughter's first wrestling tournament
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I'm really thankful that she has recovered as well as she has and that y'all didn't lose her. It's badass of all sports she chose wrestling. My brother was a Texas state champ and i got my ass kicked all the time. I had asthma back then and had to learn to either breathe while being twisted into a pretzel or escape. I eventually got fairly decent at not getting my ass kicked.
Sorry she lost her matches, but i think one can learn more from losing more often than not rather than winning. Sounds like she is really on the path to whipping some ass! I can already tell i wouldn't want to mess with her... or you! hahaha
Cool to hear you wrestled for so long back in the day. You remember that movie Vision Quest? Wrestlers are a different kind of athlete for all the reasons you mentioned and a few more! hahaha
Thanks man. I really appreciate it. She is really excited for this season. We went and got her some new wrestling shoes yesterday and she is excited to break them in. I had never seen the Vision Quest movie and it looks super old, so I would never watch it nowadays. Old movies are so weird.
Yeah, that's exciting for her for sure. If she's excited then i think she will do well. Sounds like she's already kicking ass if she beat her way onto varsity. You should totally get baked and watch that movie! hahaha Or better yet, put it on and make your daughter watch it for 'training purposes' hahahah
