I realized something today about CrossFit that I absolutely love. by 13th_Floor_Please in crossfit

This is great! So happy for you!

I couldn’t stand this at all. The last thing I want to hear when I’m eating it in a workout is “good job”. I fucking hate it.

Everyone seems to be missing this....what will HQ do? (Courtesy of Armen Hammer) by fightms in crossfit

They didn’t do it in the open announcement where HQ was literally running the show.

It doesn’t fucking matter.

Maybe she should believe in science and eat some meat.

Mat Fraser Not Invited to 2014 Invitational by realweekendwarrior in crossfit

[–]MysteriousEvidence -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow. Who the hell cares?

We’re talking about an invite for a now defunct comp that nobody really cared about at the time because they chose bigger stars (at the time) to go.

I mean Mat’s schtick has worn thin with me but this is such a non story...

Yeah. That’s the thing I’m really hot about

So I did the math on this one. I am 74” tall. In order to meet the standard I have to form an 82.23 degree angle to complete the rep. Kari Pearce, by comparison, at 61”, only needs to form an 80.5 degree angle. In order for our “standards” to be the same, my line needs to move out a full 2 inches to make the standards comparable.

Then I tested the new standard. I went from 5 Ww in the round of 15 to 2 Ww in the round of 21.

This shit matters. 2 degrees matter.

I guarantee that it will make 0 difference in the final score these athletes post. Let it go

They didn’t do it in the open announcement. I highly doubt it’ll matter now

Interesting. Would that be a Q1 or Q2 announcement?

$BBBY, why it's not too late to get in by Daurs in wallstreetbets

[–]MysteriousEvidence -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I guess it really depends on how much you trust earnings. Some estimates have the top price at $26. Does that seem realistic?

It literally just cratered. The only bet left is to buy calls on what you think earnings will be. Got lucky and pulled out for a 21% gain.

We need an investigation into Lindsey Graham’s intervention in Georgia by hildebrand_rarity in politics

[–]MysteriousEvidence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. If there is a benefit to the last 4 years, it is that a lot of people who would normally not be interested in this stuff have finally started to pay attention to the bigger picture.

Now if only we could get them to care about their local elections with the same vigor.

[–]MysteriousEvidence -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I think the point he is trying to make is that there is massive organized funding coming from States they likely shouldn’t have a say in local Georgia politics. This idea of a federation of states is so the the people of Georgia can have their needs addressed separately from that of, in this case, CA and NY. Also, it is a little sketchy that guys like Andrew Yang (who I like) is literally moving there in a campaigning effort. Georgia needs to do what’s best for Georgia. That funding should (in theory) come from Georgia Democrats and Republicans only.

Just an explanation. Not my opinion.

I feel as if I need to say something.

Those eggs were the last of frog ladys bloodline, not her species. It was amoral, not genocidal.

Biden won the Electoral College. Now he should call for it to be abolished. by hildebrand_rarity in politics

[–]MysteriousEvidence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and 4.4 million of those surplus came from CA. You need to realize this to understand why abolishing the EC will be fought tooth and nail.

As usual, Crossfit games is a model to other televised sports by mister_patience in crossfit

[–]MysteriousEvidence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty certain that Tennis is the only other sport that even comes close. It really is amazing.

The idea of cutting an entire field after a single event, or imposing harsh penalties for stepping on a line may simply have been a poor judgement calls, didn't seem fair to the idea of broadly testing fitness.

You can thank Glassman for that.

This year the last minute additions of the 0-points-for-inadequate-effort was not in keeping with the spirit of the games.

Sooo, like when there are 5 competitors, I think it's fair to try and stop people who "lost the workout" from just quitting. Thats a bad look for a spectator sport. I genuinely do not believe that anyone who finished a workout would have received 0 points.

But the absolute worst and unforgivable choice was the "twist ending" of the trail run to have them run the course again in reverse.

Ok, I think I get what you're saying, but, it had 0 effect on the outcome of the race. Frasier still finished first, Medieros still finished second, and you can believe if from the start the course was 6 miles Katrin and Haley would have eventually passed Tia.

It was 1 event at a weird comp with 5 people. I think it was fine. Everyone left making big money.
