    The kid had a bad experience with wrestling in middle school PE and is apparently holding it against his college's soon-to-be-extinct wrestling team.

    Eh, it's a student newspaper column. I'm sure he's done better stuff before, and will again after.

    Didn't Oregon just add a baseball team?

    Granted, I didn't read the link. But could that be a reason why?

    It's not mentioned in there, but I believe the Ducks did announce the renewal of their baseball program right after last season ended.

    here's my favorite line of the "column" "I've yet to attend a wrestling meet in my three years in Eugene." yet he cranks out 20esque inches on the topic.

    not awesome.

    Yeah he's going to have a bunch of guys ready to kick his ass.

    That was terribly irresponsible.
