What the Singlet!!!

Here he is at the start of his match


Okay so Thursday night was Caleb's first wrestling match. I am sure that I had a look of disgust on my face while watching. No offense but it is just uncomfortable to watch this sport. And a SINGLET?

sin⋅glet  /ˈsɪŋglɪt/ –noun

a sleeveless athletic jersey, esp. a loose-fitting top worn by runners, joggers, etc.

I looked up the definition of this just cause I think it is a funny word. Well, the singlets I saw last night were in no way loose-fitting. YIKES! When I walked in my poor son was standing there waiting until the very last moment to take off his shorts and t-shirt. He was embarassed. Not to mention nervous. This was his first match and he didn't know what to expect. Being the mom I am I wanted to cheer him on but had no idea what to yell out...I felt stupid. But Caleb pulled it off and won! We were all shocked. I don't understand how he won and I don't know if Caleb knows how he did it. But hey a win is a win. After it was all said and done... we got a great laugh out of it. Just look at these great shots of Caleb in his lovely singlet!!! These photos will be great to show his future wife. I am sure she will love them!!!

Sorry but how can he be taken seriously in this outfit!

Nice one Caleb! I must say I laughed my head off at this one!

Okay this is just the first match...I don't know if I can handle it. But it was fun to watch him win. Even though we have not a clue how the scoring is done or how you win. Caleb is still learning and wearing a singlet! YUCK!!

What the singlet is right! Go Caleb for having the guts to wear it. I must say we all had a chuckle at the picture posing. Congrats on your win!

It could be worse I guess. At least they don't wear something like a speedo. I'm thinking that some day he might regret those poses. :) Congrats on your first win, Caleb!
