1. Teaching sportsmanship.

2. Put him off the team and any other team he might be part of.

3. He's got a future in

the GOP.

4. Poor sportsmanship is refusing to shake hands.

This is straight up battery, and the little bastard should be in jail.

9. yup...

5. Wow, what a sore loser.

Fucker should be banned from HS varsity sports and the colleges he applies to (if any) should be notified and shown the tweet if he wants to compete in a sport. Hopefully they'll deny him an athletic scholarship based on this incident.

6. What a thug.

His ass is grass.

8. High School. Damn. It's supposed to be a game.

I know professionally sports are win win or out.

But High School should be about the game and participating.

11. We don't know the whole story. It certainly looks bad ...

but I'm not passing judgment. I've had things happen during wrestling matches where I've wanted to deck a guy too.

12. But, Did You?

I'm guessing not.
Come on, Auggie. Nothing that happened during the match could begin to justify that.
The other side of the story quit mattering the moment he threw that punch while still grasping the other kid's hand.

[Auggie]

13. Nope. But something snapped in that kid ...

could have been happening for weeks or months. I'd want to know the history between these two.

[ProfessorGAC]

14. Quite Probable

As in my post today about breaking up that fight, there has to be a backstory.
Given they're both juveniles, we aren't likely to learn it if there is.

[NBachers]

15. 14 - 2 tells me everything I need to know.

[Rebl2]

16. Arrest for assault

I would hope.

[True Dough]

17. This is why

professional wrestling is the superior form of entertainment -- it's fake!

Seriously, that kid needs to learn a lesson. The social media shame should rattle him too.
