If your son was a hero to you, that is a personal decision that I not only accept, but endorse. My son wrestled for three years and won 4 matches in High School. I still supported, and attended every match and three a week practices he participated in, as that is what he wanted to do.  He tried his best. I praised him for this. After high school, and a short hiatus, he continued the sport on his own in a different style of the same sport. He now owns a world title in Brazil style JuJitsu submission wrestling. He choked out the reining world champion in a match and owns the title for his class. Good job Son!In my original post I said that KFOR called football players friday night hero's. I don't understand why the other atheletes in other sports are denied this title by their definition?</blockquote>
