DeWines’s Ohio COVID Rule: High School Wrestlers Can Wrestle - But Can’t Shake Hands

In the midst of scratching their heads over Governor Mike DeWine’s (R) Dec. 7 extension of his bizarre, unconstitutional “curfew” to guard against a virus that, evidently, becomes more deadly after 10 pm and before 5 am, Ohio residents might have missed the bizarre “high school sports” edict issued on Dec. 4…

That’s the command that high school wrestlers are “permitted” to wrestle, but before and after the match, participants are...

...forbidden from shaking hands.

Then there’s the added genius of this rule:

Wrestlers are also required to wear facial coverings off the mat when not actively competing or warming up.

Because, as anyone knows, when the wrestlers aren’t wrapped up with competitors like human pretzels, they might encounter the breath of another human being.

And there’s this:

All those on the team bench also need to observe social distancing of 6 feet....

The stupid, it hurts!

[CheshireTheCat]

For your consideration.

[Phillyred]

Mask up were all in this together

Dunning-Kruger effect in spades.

So they can go doggy style or missionary position while they are wrestling, but no hand shaking.

Today, I watched the Army vs. Navy football game.

At the end of the game, many of the Navy players put on their masks to sing the Navy alma mater song. Mind you, they had just finished sweating and breathing on their opponents for most of the previous 3 hours.

Our nation is being run by morons.

“Our nation is being run by morons.”

Which is working quite well for them because their subjects are imbeciles.

Irrational. Not many degrees of separation from EVIL. Cog diss ALERT!

[EEGator]

I have to believe this is a political game of ridiculous one upsmanship.

“Dude, no way you can impose that rule!”
“Hold muh beer...”

[humblegunner]

Our nation is being run by morons.

And also little wankstain bloggers who excerpt needlessly.

Governor DeWine is a control-freak idiot. I wrested in school for nine years, from the 4th grade through my senior year, and this is by far the the dumbest thing that I have seen. One of the more depraved of my teammates in high school loved to figure-four the heads of his opponents and that is far worse and more unhygienic than any handshake could ever be.

Look at this picture and judge for yourself:

That kid is not happy. I never let anyone pull that move on me.

Insanity run amuck.

[gitmo]

Is this a new satire site?

[CheshireTheCat]

My theory is that Lex Wexner at one time invited DeWine as his guest to Epstein Island, and the goober really thought there was going to be some fancy party with good shrimp and a famous ice sculpturer’s latest handicraft.

Instead, he was drugged and subjected to the live boy and or dead girl treatment and now he is China’s b*tch.

And a couple of Chinese handlers are having fun trying to outdo themselves with things they can get DeWine to go along with ordering and are a having a good laugh watching how stupid Americans are in eating it up.

One day we will be looking back on 2020 and laugh at how people believed a cloth or paper mask could stop a virus.

Gay.

[cgbg]

This is turning into a hilarious Woody Allen “Sleepers” sketch.

The lunatics are running the asylum.

[CheshireTheCat]

Me?

Or DeWine?

Or wrestling?

If DeWine is gay, he is the most potent short gay man I have ever known. 8 kids.

Come on. This news has to be from the Babylon Bee.
