I'm marveling at Sammy's 1. being able to walk 2. Walking w power and dignity.

[@Kilty007]

Sammy, I saw you on TV last weekend walk through the handshake line after the Penn State match and it made me smile. Best wishes. You're going to go places regardless of what ultimately transpires with the wrestling recovery.

[@MrGuanYu1]

Man that's absolutely heart breaking. I greatly feel for him. Hope for his sake he's able to get back on the mat to compete again.

[@billgrubb2799]
