   Ironically, today the Olympics decided to phase out wrestling.

   Yes, and they decided to keep synchronized swimming and badminton. Go figure!

   From what I understand, the Greek version of wrestling was real .. and very intense!
   They wrestled naked … and the only rule was that you couldn’t kill your opponent!

    Just to clarify … it was malenude wrestling. And, like I said … anything went.
    I wonder how many of them were ‘squeezed’ into surrendering!
