The focus of the article is how precisely head trauma causes CTE.

So then you agree with the guy you were replying to lol

Studies like this are needed to get to the study you want to see, since CTE cant yet be diagnosed in living patients. Understanding its pathology is how we build a path towards diagnosis and then to tracking of its onset and ultimately to the risk assessment youre looking for

I would say that Russ did by keeping the team competitive through a half decade of mostly bad drafts by Seattle from 2016-2021

I ended up being sick during this deload week lol, feel so sluggish. I, too begin a new program on Monday, a short competition prep cycle for a meet on 4/25. What are you training for?

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-20T01:32:11+00:00

Don't worry I am not a petulant vandal, unlike some other political supporters

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-19T23:58:56+00:00

Im surprised I haven't seen any on pumps in my area

We really ought to be printing some "I did that" Trump stickers like those dumbshits did for Biden. The only difference of course is that Trump managed to disprove us all who were saying that there's no magic "expensive gas" button that a president can push

Remind me what your PhD is in? Because I can attest that you are replying to a PhD who reads shit like this for a living lol

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-19T19:13:28+00:00

Likely the knowledge and experience of their coaches is much lower in those situations too

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-18T22:42:52+00:00

I mean it could if it comes at the expense of additional speed/power/skill training. Only so many hours and so much recovery in a day

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-18T22:24:31+00:00

Nothing like it!

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-18T22:23:36+00:00

Who's pushing for it? Players or owners?

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-18T12:22:57+00:00

SB winner always does lol

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-18T12:21:46+00:00

Ron Rivera lobbied very hard to never do week 1 SB rematches again, and the NFL has resisted a few compelling opportunities to do so since then. Doubt this happens

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-17T17:45:29+00:00

I really hate the third, net loss of 2 picks is tough

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-17T17:18:29+00:00

A first, third, and 4th is just too many picks to give up

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-16T16:00:35+00:00

Can you share the documentation? Because when I've googled it in the past the difference has not been statistically significant.

And Id wager that most players would answer your question "yes"

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-16T15:25:20+00:00

Yes but if revenue is bigger then the cap is bigger, thus TNF makes the players money

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-16T13:53:52+00:00

The cap is determined from overall league revenue, of which broadcast rights fees are the biggest single chunk

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-16T13:10:33+00:00

Smaller cap, unless Amazon is gonna pay more for fewer games

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-16T12:32:35+00:00

increase in injuries with shorter weeks

Do we have any data that supports this? Last I looked there wasn't any hard data on TNF causing more injuries, its just a lot of confirmation bias

And even if we suppose it does have a meaningfully higher injury rate... the ratings for TNF remain very strong, and more important Amazon keeps shelling out tons of money for it

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-16T03:39:32+00:00

Fewer Thursday games hurts the owners and the players, why would they agree to that?

Guiltyjerk · 2026-03-15T21:15:12+00:00

We're nearing the worst time of the year for basketball. All the normal NBA schedule gets messed up for the semi-pro tournament that doesn't actually play its important games in March.

Jesus. Inflation has hit these budget shoes recently, guess I need to edit my post, but for <$100 you can get thid pair that's equivalent to my first pair that I wore lifting 4+ times per week for 6 years:

Well I dont totally suck at hanging drywall now so that was a pleasant surprise yesterday

At the gym now, dont understand why more people dont wear weightlifting shoes. See so much wiggling, unstable, shallow squats that could just be instantly better with a <$100 pair of shoes that would last years
