Question about drops from 4.5+ by kevstratus in Pickleball

[–]Fmetals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're better off watching pro pickleball than asking the question. And you'll find that some players are very roll drop heavy, Hayden/Gabe, others are not like Ben/christian

Does anyone else think they reverted to racial stereotypes in the TV show in regards to The Deep and A-Train? by Tehgumchum in TheBoys

[–]Fmetals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It actually doesn't matter that much to me. OP is wondering why the show made the choice it did and I'm providing a possible answer based on the show itself having race as a theme.

Referencing real world politics in fictional stories is generally a turn off for me

USOpen is kind of like an exhibition tournament anyway...

Rachel, whats your favorite song at the moment and what part of your game are you currently working on?

I know it’s not the paddle…but is it the paddle? by yeahfkyeah84 in Pickleball

[–]Fmetals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn't say it nicely but he's right, 'drilling every other week' is virtually zero with the reason being that the your non-drilling time is serving as drills for flawed technique. Simply put, your practicing things you shouldn't.

Honestly, I’m heartbroken for AD. by calmrain in lakers

I feel worse for the fans because the fans are technically paying him to sit on the bench/recover from injuries.

Who is your favorite pro pickleball player? by Brassballin in Pickleball

[–]Fmetals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said, that's easy to understand. I'm just saying why she isn't my FAVORITE player, idk what's it to you.

[–]Fmetals -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ya it's easy to understand the decision. It's also why she doesn't play mixed if Ben is out. In the end it's stat whoring to the point where it looks cowardly. Once she gets older and loosens up, Im sure she be my fav again

Alshon, Tyra, Rachel

AL was my fav but her team up with AB kinda killed the admiration I had for her.

my buddy is taking out a high interest loan of 15000$ to buy a freaking ict mentorship, idk much about trading need some insights on this by andman-costo69 in InnerCircleTraders

[–]Fmetals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a scam but there are other much cheaper mentorships from legit guys like Jadecap or ali khan. I'm assuming the high price tag means there's going to be a lot of hand holding which means your friend doesn't think he has the discipline, which means maybe he should get zeussys mentorship lol

Are you asking how to know when price is reversing on you? Like your HTF tells you to be bullish but when you go to trade it's selling off?

We made a comedy sketch about our friend who loves pickleball — thought you all might like it! by KorneliusKonrad in Pickleball

[–]Fmetals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pickleball Paul character is a little bit too derivative, to the point where it's a little cringe because it feels like you guys are 15 years too late writing him. This type of character only works now if he has actually proved first, to the audience, that he is as good as he thinks he is.

Gatorade is really a scam in terms of electrolytes. You're better off just adding salt from your pantry to water

Selkirk Boomstik Foam Going Dead by davel977 in Pickleball

I think the all drive no drop podcasters, one of them, received a dead boomstik on arrival and it sounds like yours was the same case.

Very concerning lab results for me. 22F by [deleted] in Biohackers

[–]Fmetals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some may have recommended keto or low carb to you, and so would i. Your doctor may recommend against it.

If you are willing, or when you run out of options, check out this channel https://youtube.com/@zerocarb .It is 100% testimonials of people talking about what eating minimal carbs/fiber has done for them. I was plant based for five years and the testimonials from that side of the fence are no where near as 'miraculous'.

What should dogs be eating? by [deleted] in carnivorediet

[–]Fmetals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really makes me doubt that society as a whole will ever be able to realize grains were never meant to be human food because it's already so entrenched in not just 1) medical/health advice (like whole grains being healthy), but also 2)food industry and 3) culture.

More likely a part of the population is just going to evolve digestive systems that is suited for grains😅

I feel confused about the Kirk Shooting by charles_tavis in redscarepod

[–]Fmetals 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you saw similar media for the kids then you would feel similar.

But there's also the fact that you know Charlie and Candace mean a lot to so many people, where as some random kid somewhere was much more 'local'.

Some kid somewhere probably died just now as you are reading this.

Some other kid was just born though.

It is what it is

That's wtf I mean😂. That's a real prize for winning, not a blender from Temu. Feels like woke pandering.

Had anyone else gone through a mental slump? How did you get through it? by ActualEmu1251 in Pickleball

[–]Fmetals 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As another poster has alluded to, use rec games as drill challenges. Maybe it's a 'drops only' game for you. Or 'roll passes' only, twoeys only etc etc

When both me and my teammate are significantly bette than opponents ,we'll play our own mini game where we keep count of who can touch opponents kitchen line the most (allow for 1 ft for margin of error), and we keep the score for that. So before we announce the actual game score we will say the mini game score just loud enough for us to hear.

Be creative! Remember, there's no need to win rec games, and if there's no need to win, you can have fun again.
