Carson had his first wrestling match tonight! He told me, “This is the BEST tournament ever!” (except that it wasn’t a tournament, but I’m glad he loved it). He didn’t win any of his, but he did really well for his first match! 
His first one didn’t go so well for him–he was a bit confused about it all and got pinned really fast, but it’s because they kind of practice that way in wrestling (not because they are supposed to, but when you are with friends, you just have fun!).
His second match was when he de-pantsed the other little wrestler. It was pretty funny actually. Luckily, the other kid was also only 5 or 6, so he didn’t care much. The guy keeping score (telling the other guys the points…not sure what that is called) told him, “Don’t pull down his pants. It’s embarassing to him!” But everyone was laughing and having a good time. The next 2 pics were from that match.
The last match was good. He totally would have won had he not been listening to the other kid’s dad, who just happens to be one of Carson’s coaches. I have two words for that guy. Chill. Out. I’ll post the video so you can see. Since Carson listens to him in practice, then why wouldn’t he listen to him in the match????? You tell me. His son wasn’t even enjoying himself, which was the sad part. Again, just chill out and have some fun! It’s not a big deal! I hate it when people make things un-fun because they are so competitive. Alrighty then, my little shpeel is over. But it’s a little funny to watch. You can see the boys at the very beginning, when Carson is about to pin the other kid, the coach yells “NO!” and they both look at him like, “What I’d do wrong?” Then he says “Stand up!” and they both do. It was funny because they ended up doing the same things to each other because Carson was listening to–dun dun dun dun–his COACH! (I’m really bummed though–I don’t think the video works! And I’ve downloaded it twice now. Bummer. Oh well. Just imagine it.)
You should have keyed that guys car in the parking lot, or followed him home to vandalize his property.
Wow. That is way annoying! Lame dad. Seriously, yelling that his kid finally won. Good grief! Good job Carson!
Hopefully Carson doesn't have to wrestle that kid again. If so, I'd talk to the coach about it. But that's just me. I'm glad he had fun!
I wonder if the coach would have yelled at Carson if it would have been his son Carson de-pantsed.
Good luck with that coach.
And good job Carson!
If it makes you feel better he looked like he was having a blast tonight! At least the practices seem like a ton of good boy-type- fun! I was pretty impressed after taking Reese tonight. Here's hoping he didn't notice as much as you did. ;)
P.S.
That coach does sound like a dork.
oh my gosh!! i've seen that kid/dad at practice, but didnt realize he was one of the coaches. I actually went home one night and told D how crazy that dad was. I totally recognize that little boy. Poor kid! But go Carson having fun anyway. I feel really badly that we didn't have Kael go.
