One-legged man could kick your a$$

So, depending on your personality, this story will either be inspirational or humiliating. Me, I find being humiliated to be inspirational, so I get it both ways.

This weekend was the NCAA Wrestling championship, where the winner of the 125-pound weight class was Anthony Robles. Robles was born without a right leg.
Could Anthony Robles out-wrestle you with one hand tied behind his back? I'm going to say yes. Image via NBC Sports.
According to the AP story (also via NBC Sports), Robles "got the only takedown in the first period of the match and worked a pair of tilts to secure five back points," which makes me realize that I know absolutely nothing about wrestling.
