Wrasslin’ luminaries weigh in on a controversial incident.

“It’s making wrestling look bad,” said Wheeler, who wrestled at Fresno State for two years before spending the past nine years coaching at the high-school level. “Some people already see wrestling as a dirty sport. Now people are talking about anal penetration and wrestling in the same sentence.”

The article goes on to say:

Because of wrestling’s fragile state, the sport cannot absorb a black eye from the upcoming trial…

Nor a brown one. ZING!

  1. So, if we protect gay kids from bullies and make it “okay to be gay”, does that mean that wrestling will cease to exist as a high school sport? Can high school theater programs have the money in that case?

  2. Color me surprised:

    Fresno City coach Paul Keysaw said the butt drag is used often in wrestling and that anal penetration does occur on occasion.
    …

    “I’m not going to say anal penetration never happens,” Keysaw said. “But I absolutely, unequivocally say ‘no’ that a coach would ever teach his kids to shove fingers up another kids’ rectum. That’s just a dangerous path to take.”

    I’m finding it really hard to believe that *anal penetration* is really a result of this move more often than “almost never.”

    I have to wonder if people are confusing fingers in the butt *crack* with fingers in the butt *hole*.

    Also, @1? WTF are you talking about? I don’t get the connection you’re trying to draw between gay theater dorks and wrestling.
