An Iowa schoolboy wrestler made the news yesterday when he refused to wrestle a girl in the state tournament. She won by default.
The boy's name is Joel Northrup and he's home-schooled. (Red flag!) According to Joel, wrestling is a "combat sport" (Hey Joel, women are in the military these days, or don't they teach you that at home?) and he just couldn't wrestle a girl "as a matter of faith". (WWJW -- Who would Jesus wrestle?)
Now, if this kid is really some sort of conscientious objector, OK and good for him. But in Buster's humble opinion, he's just toeing the God-squad parental line. Joel, grow a set, channel your inner Andy Kaufman, and slam that bee-yotch to the mat!
