Everyone who reads this forum loves wrestling. I hope this is one point that no one will argue.
Lately it appears from reading some of the posts that some posters are opposed to rankings being published on forum. I really have no idea what possible issue any wrestling proponent could have against rankings. In Colorado Tim Yount, an Atwood native, publishes rankings for every class in Colorado. WIN Magazine, Wrestling USA, USA Wrestling, The Open Mat, IntermatWrestle, FloWrestling, Highschoolwrestling.com, etc all attempt to rate/rank/predict the order of the wrestlers. They do this to promote interest and discussion. Our sport needs this! Football, basketball, baseball, tennis, golf, etc all have rankings and some of those are really never resolved and are argued for years and decades after the season closes. Debate is healthy and generates even more interest in our sport. I think we should be nothing but THANKFUL for Chief Renegade. He doesn't have a dog in the fight but his passion and dedication are second to none. He has nothing but accuracy in mind, no bias or favortism. We should all embrace this and refrain from posting criticism directed at him.
