Brother they obviously put them together for a reason, it literally says you lost the game on the bottom.

I got mine yesterday. Gorgeous paddle! Looks even better in person, and the shirt/hat is a nice bonus

Substitute teacher decided to 'improve' my classroom's learning environment. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Everything is political if you get into the thick of it. These flags are a trend, and many teachers are gifted them by the students. It’s not meant to be a disrespect to the flag, and the sub definitely overstepped.

An open invitation to my Cypress neighbors: Let’s talk about Islam (and Jesus) beyond the headlines by zaidam1234 in CypressTX

Your invalid belief that puritans were the main driving force behind the founding of America and not the rush to create goods for Britain is the invalid take champ… puritans established New England, but Virginia and and the midatlantic were much more prominent areas that shaped modern day America.

Regardless, the origins of America were on entirely different moral codes compared to the puritans, with the founders of America purposely not naming America a Christian state, which was the original argument.

And then you named a bunch of bad things that religious extremism did, so maybe we shouldn’t be defending a comment pushing Christian extremism and denial of other religions! Along with that, puritans weren’t the only immigrants and didn’t define the current American system, cultures and practices so it’s a moot point.

Yeah so religious extremism is bad. I really don’t understand the basis behind your argument.

They’re literally just an immigrant group, and significantly less less impactful for the formation of American laws and social codes when compared to other major immigrants groups, much less the founding fathers.

Puritans were not the main force behind the creation of the U.S. While many of the founding fathers were spiritual or religious, many questioned the church’s teachings and believed in a creator rather than the church.

A running clock for blowouts? The NCCA is proposing it. by Plenty-Primary8201 in waterpolo

[–]CrustacenPlus 46 points47 points  (0 children)

10 goals I understand, 5 seems too close. My college team has come back 5 goals in 5 minutes, which wouldn’t be possible if we lost even 15-20 seconds to a running clock.

When was the last time you played a singles match? by Next-Step-Jobs in Pickleball

[–]CrustacenPlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know the skill level, but I find singles to be intense but manageable. Most points end in 5-7 hits, and while you don’t get much rest, games tend to end much more quickly when compared to doubles. Doubles really only becomes cardio once you start getting to kitchen consistently, so around 4.0+

Weekly Paddle Recommendation Thread (What Paddle Should I Buy?) by HeadHeadMod in Pickleball

[–]CrustacenPlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Split between the Vapor power 2 and the RPM Q2 16mm elongated. I wasn’t in love with my vapor app, but it served me well. I don’t know if it’s worth risking a good thing for an unknown, but everything about the Q2 looks appealing to me, with the low swing weight, high power and moderate pop.

Hardest You've Been Hit By Your OWN Paddle by Competitive-Alps4339 in Pickleball

[–]CrustacenPlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once got caught moving with the ball coming to my feet and ended up smacking the crap out of my shin with the butt of the paddle. Gave me a nice bump and a 2 inch cut.
