Be Grateful

It is always amazing to see someone who is not "normal" do something amazing. That is is exactly what Anthony Robles did. He won the 125 LB weight class national championship Saturday. He did it with 1 leg. That is why it so amazing. Anthony Robles was born with one leg. He said it has been a long and tough road but a rewarding one too.

What he did is amazing don't get me wrong, but look at it this way. It would probably be very difficult to take down or grapple a wrestler with one less limb. I have a wrestler friend who said it is absolutely an advantage. But that does not take away what Anthony has done and how hard he has worked to win despite his disability.
