I don’t want to speak for everyone in this blogging/wrestling/writing world, but for myself — and I’ll go ahead and say that I believe a lot of others probably would say similar — a lot of my motivation comes from my experiences in the sport.
As an adult, I’ve found that a lot of life lessons I learned growing up in wrestling have helped me in my career and daily life. I also believe that my experience and education gained at Oklahoma State has done similar.
So often when I write about the sport or Oklahoma State, I look at it from that angle.
