Vince,

My number one problem is that there is NO CHANGE. I am not saying we should do everything that anyone advocates. The problem is NOTHING is happening. I am looking for help to overhaul the CHANGE process because it is broken. I am taking an approach that impacts all of wrestling. I am not motivated by any personal agenda. Your motive is clear. Your son is in that area of weight classes in which you feel there isn't enough opportunity. However, the demographics and distribution clearly point out that more weight classes are needed in the middle of the bell curve than out on the tails. Also supporting that is the fact that 24/7 pointed out. If you are a little guy there are very little other athletic opportunities. The weight classes as they are now are supported by data and a clear line of thought. Try to explain why a team shouldn't be allowed to travel more than 500 miles to an event? All that is supported by is those who can't figure out or don't want to figure out how to make it happen. How many times do you see 215 and 285 open? How many times do you see any weight between 130 and 171 open? That should easily put your question to rest. Your quest is with an a national organization that changed 16 rules this year! If it was feasible they would be looking at it. My enemy is a obstacle course filled with unreasonable and unrealistic challenges at the local level where my tax dollars fund the decision makers. Your post reads like you are tired of my plight to make something, anything happen. I need your support not a post that makes it appear that you think I am out of line.
