refdad 3 Report post Posted February 20, 2011 I don't know if anyone else agrees or not but I saw WAY to much injury time being called in the third period and 90 percent of the time, the kid took a one minute breather then was fine. To me this is nothing more than legal stalling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unicorn Warrior 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2011 yep, basically. not a lot you can do about it though. Just a part of the sport. Happens in other sports all the time, only difference is that a sub goes in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nkawtg 137 Report post Posted February 21, 2011 Calling a HS kid names and insulting his accomplishment is gutless. I hope those doing it are middle school kids and not adults.I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of wrestling I saw in the finals. The resources for KY wrestlers to improve are available. Summer wrestling is huge in Cincy and not too far away. 125, 152, 171 champs were impressive imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
refdad 3 Report post Posted February 21, 2011 I don't know who called anyone a name or insulted or discredited anyone specifically but I didn't mention any one team or any one kid. I however did see two teams in specific needing injury time quite often in the third period. If you didn't see this situation as a problem them apparently we just disagree on this topic. Faking injury time to get a breather only takes away the advantage the other kid gained by working harder throughout the season and is total b.s 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grappler-of-old 44 Report post Posted February 21, 2011 Yes refdad it is unethical to use a timeout for a breather. However you know there is little we can do about it. They changed the rule that there is only 1:30 injury time and on the second time out the other wrestler gets choice and the third time no matter the time remaining is an injury default. Not much more can be done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty obvious when it happened match in and match out. Get in shape! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heavy83 15 Report post Posted February 21, 2011 Especially when the inhaler is held 6 inches away from the wrestler and they are staring at the clock makes it very obvious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
