Dan Gable vows to fight Olympic decision to drop wrestling

Memo to the International Olympic Committee on the heels of a preliminary vote to drop wrestling at the 2020 Olympics: You’ve got a fight on your hands.

Dan Gable, arguably the most iconic American name in the sport, vowed to work at changing the decision before a final vote in September.

“The thing is, because of wrestling, I have a mindset that is strong. Exceptionally strong,” Gable said today. “I don’t believe in the four-letter word ‘quit.’ I don’t believe in the four-letter word ‘can’t.’

“Right now, I’m not going to change because I see an initial vote. I’m not going to quit. I’m going to fight.”

While all the discussions are going on with the IOC, FILA and such, don't forget to let the sponsors know how you feel. See the email addresses above. These are the people who give big bucks to the IOC. The IOC Executive Committee pulled a fast one here, and they thought they could get away with it. Let the people who pay the bills know how you feel about the decision and the way it was made.
