Absolutely.

1. It will help you with your ground game.

2. It will allow you to learn how to use your body and how to leverage your weight against a variety of opponents.

4. You will learn some great moves, legal and not legal (for HS)

3. You will get into excellent conditioning.

4. It's free!

Go for it.

I had to lose my mind to come to my senses.

Yes, wrestling is one of the best bases you can have wether you are a grappler or a striker.

If you wana stand you will be hard to take down, and if you wana go to the ground you will have the takedowns to put people there.

I have yet to see a High school wrestling program teach effective moves and situations that would be used in a real fight. Sure you can take it for the idea of learning I guess. But personaly I would take it so that I find myself in positions and ask myself ...now what would I do if it were a RL fight. From that you can learn to increase your MA.

But personaly HS Wrestling is like Tae Bo in my views.

Sure you learn to do a few neat things, and keep you in shape but it doesn't give you fighting lessons.

To become the greatest warrior, one needs to train beyond the physical and into the spiritual becoming supernatural. It is then that the warrior will know that he is indeed not the greatest, but just awakened.

I disagree. While not anything like a jitsu art would be, it does teach releases and counters for a lot of basic holds that you might encounter in the street. I wrestled for a couple years in junior high, and when I took some grappling classes, a lot of the basics were the same. But, YMMV.

Balance, coordination, strenght, endurance ,agility, and a strong base are a few things that would benefiit a martial artist.

you dont think having excelent balance and being able to avoid takedowns and scramble back to your feet could possibly be useful in a street fight?
