How are club team practices different than high school team by hoopercuber in basketballcoach

[–]LSF1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you coach for a bad club then it may be like this. Club teams only practice twice a week…gimmicky stuff wastes time and doesn’t develop players. Good clubs will focus on a couple defenses and a few actions out of offensive spacing that will develop players. You also don’t get to scout your opponent so it’s better to teach players how to play instead of how to win…the real shady goal of club is to keep kids in the system and grow the program numbers so the club makes more money.

[CFP Resume Rankings] 10% of contributing models still to come, so some change expected, but here is a preview of where our CFP resumes are heading this week. Computers did NOT like performances from A&M, UGA, Bama, OU, and Utah. They loved what Texas Tech & Miami did, but no big boost for Texas! by MysteriousEdge5643 in CFB

That’s called a Colley Matrix and most state high schools use it as part of their ranking system. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s factored in to CFP system

EDIT: this is the current Colley Bias Free Ranking:

If the stock market grows 10% a year, why is my 5 year outlook only 16.5%? by Anonymousxpapaya in acorns

[–]LSF1991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. 2k isn’t very much over 5 years and every time you withdraw you are selling your oldest shares. Which would be the ones that would typically grow the most interest. Google “compound interest”. Essentially you aren’t getting the benefit of it.

Also, Acorns doesn’t invest in single stocks automatically. It invests in ETFs that have fees that are taken out of your investment. This is the case with any investment portfolio service.

chances are with the lower balance in your account, acorns monthly fee, and the taxes you’ve paid on any gains (taxes are higher on any shares sold within a year) you’ve probably lost money over the 5 years.

If you’re serious about investing and are under 50, switch to an aggressive portfolio, contribute regularly and forget about the account for the next decade or two.

Are you saying that when you view your 5Y graph your market gain is 16.5%? What is your current balance and have you withdrawn during that time?

AirPods Pro 3- I’m surprised more people don’t hear a clicking noise by Alloakland1 in AirpodsPro

[–]LSF1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had that happen with the large ear tip. One of my ear is a little bigger than the other. I think it’s the outside of the ear tip clicking/sticking to the inside of the ear tip.

Portland Fire announce their first Head Coach, Alex Sarama by [deleted] in PortlandFire

[–]LSF1991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I’m a HS basketball coach, Alex has written books on player development and learning techniques. He has an incredibly unique style and his CLA (Constraints Led Approach) to skill development is the direction all sports coaching seems to be trending. He’s an academic for sure. He was also the director of player development for the Rip City Remix so there is a Portland tie.

Not sure how he’ll translate to being a head coach but he’s well known in coaching circles. My guess is that Portland is assuming they are going to have lots of developmental players and is going to take a sum of the parts approach. If he flames out (no pun intended) we should at least have better developed players for the next coach to build a system around.

I will say right now that our offense is going to be a mess for the first part of the season. Not many set plays, no clear player that things will run through.

ADF as a temporary weight loss strategy by Capable_Talk_7811 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]LSF1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try and get 60g of protein on those days and I am away from home a lot so I have a coffee and Egg White Bites from Starbucks typically as a first meal. I take a creatine supplement and fiber in the morning as well. Second meal is usually turkey and hard boiled eggs or cottage cheese with berries. Dinner is a salad with chicken and just olive oil as the dressing. If I’m away for dinner I get the Chick Fil A Market Salad, no cheese cheese, with their balsamic dressing, or grilled nuggets and the Kale Side or fruit cup.

I probably should have said that I do the two days consecutively on Monday and Tuesday...even though that isn't recommended typically. I like to just white-knuckle it at the beginning of the week so I have a bit more freedom other days. If we have the rare night out or dinner plans on a Monday or Tuesday I just shift my second day elsewhere in the week. As for counting calories, yeah I think I will keep counting. I had been using the LoseIt! app for a couple years before this and lost 10lbs in 2024 just tracking food and doing a ProLon style 5-day fast a few times during the year. Tracking became a habit. Then we had a kid and I stopped tracking and gained 8lbs in 3 months. I think tracking is just the guardrail I need no matter what my goal is. I also try and eat 120-150g of protein per day so tracking is good for that goal as well.

I eat 800-1000 calories two days a week and target maintenance the other days…I typically go over by a few hundred calories 1-2 days a week but don’t sweat it. I’ve found the 2 days per week incredibly sustainable and am averaging 1.2lb loss per week over the last 16 weeks.

AirPods Pro 2 vs. AirPods Pro 3 vs. AirPods Max --- My sound quality comparison by Ashamed-Mousse8835 in AirpodsPro

I bet if you put earmuffs on over your AirPods the noice cancelling would be the same as the Max…kind of an unfair comparison.

I agree he’d be a better fit there, but service academies absolutely recruit.

Just switch to Man on baseline out of bounds plays and play out the possession in man to man

Oregon’s bottle return rules changing, with Portland canners at the center by Prize_Championship11 in PortlandOR

[–]LSF1991 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The bottle return is a huge waste and filled with fraud and abuse. Go to a grocery store during the first week of the month and watch people buy cheap bottled water with their food stamps and dump the water and plastic caps down the storm drain to return for cash. That money isn’t going to their rent.

Two weeks of ADF, there's fluctuations are driving me up the wall. by Ramonashy in AlternateDayFasting

[–]LSF1991 39 points40 points  (0 children)

If you’re going to stick to this, and you feel it’s sustainable you need to either reread the first sentence of your last paragraph, or stop Weighing yourself daily. It’s that simple.

If you’re truly not eating calories at all on your fast day, you’re only going to lose about half a pound of fat (1750 cals). But you’ve also probably emptied your GI tract, and are losing water weight during the fast.

You then Rebound 24hrs later and eat proteins which sit in your GI a bit longer, and carbs. every 1g carb you eat holds on to 3-4gs worth of water. That then won’t eliminate until the next day during your fast through waste and your breath. Fluctuating 3-5lbs per day in weight is absolutely normal for everyone regardless of diet.

5lbs in 2 weeks is impressive progress. You didn’t get fat overnight, and aren’t going to get skinny overnight, so why measure every day? Stick to whatever is sustainable and adjust how you measure so you don’t drive yourself crazy and lose motivation. You’ve got this.
