We can't just discount many, many legitimate issues just because some of us don't want to change anything. Here are some of the reasons that are legimate and can be addressed:

Season is too long
Tournaments take too long
Too many practices
Cost
Spring Break
Watch High School State
Watch NCAA Tournament
Compete in National events
Get started in GR and FS

We can shorten the core kids season without taking away anything from the MS and HS kids. If you don't want to quit there are many, many tournaments to go to. Right now our state tournament conflicts with USA Middle School National Duals. It almost conflicted with USA Flk Nationals. Our district kids tournament is going on the same weekend as the NCAA Finals. That means our kids wrestle longer than the college wrestlers!!! It is too easy to rationalize and not do a thing. We have to figure out how to grow our sport.
