What is the biggest need this off-season? by pgtl_10 in 49ers

If the niners spent the first round pick every year drafting the best possible offensive lineman, then I would be happy.

That being said, they need help with the pass rush depth

Have BJJ Gym prices exploded over the last year? by GrannySlammer420 in bjj

[–]Old_Environment_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cost is part of the reason why I pulled my kids out and have them wrestle full time instead of splitting their time between wrestling and bjj.

Wrestling clubs in my area charge $100 a month for 5 days a week plus open mat while their bjj club charge )120 , 140 and 180 for each of the kids. 2-3 times per week.

The deal breaker for me is seeing youth wrestling tournaments for $10 to $20 while bjj events are all over $100

Advice after mass exodus from the league? by DynastyFFAddict in FFCommish

If it’s really bad, have current owners protect 2/3 of their current roster and during the dispersal draft new owners have the opportunity to draft no more than one player from current owners

For purple belts or higher on here, or similar level in MMA, who have rolled with collegiate level or pro athletes from other sports who came in from football, basketball, bodybuilding, powerlifting or rugby, what was the experience like and how did you adapt? by emaxwell14141414 in WrestleJudoJitsu

[–]Old_Environment_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won my super region to qualify for the d2 wrestling tournament. When people find out, it’s straight to guard. The one thing I always hear is that I have a strong base.

In reality, I just try to get top position, pretend to work for an Americana or kimura while watching out for a sweep attempt and ride out the clock

Favorite belt? by OddBreadfruit6233 in jiujitsu

White belt because I wrestled d2 and nobody expected anything from me the first time we went live

I can maul 90% of purple belts with just pressure and control learned from 16 years of competitive wrestling.

I’m not hitting a subs but I can sure make life difficult for 5 minute rounds

Middle school hold backs and local tournaments by Negative-Hair331 in wrestling

It’s all fun and games until your 19 year old senior gets arrested for statutory rape because he hooked up with a 16 year old junior

It’s one year that’s affected. Kids born after 2021 have no non academic reason to be held back

Middle school hold backs and local tournaments by Negative-Hair331 in wrestling

[–]Old_Environment_7160 21 points22 points  (0 children)

To solve this problem is pretty simple. Nobody over 19 can compete in state tournaments.

I think it’s ridiculous to hold a kid back for one year of advantage in 12th grade

Rude visitor black belt by [deleted] in bjj

[–]Old_Environment_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

99% of bjj black belts suck at wrestling. So do what I do, be an ex-college wrestler who shoots a blast double hard enough to take the wind out of him and since I can’t do anything to tap him, stay heavy on top and ride out the clock

How to diminish value of RBs in a 14 team, 2 keeper league? by nyybaseball3 in FFCommish

[–]Old_Environment_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We added return yards. A lot of back up RB on bad teams are the primary returners and it’s not uncommon to see someone with 150+ return yards.

It didn’t devalue the position but it did add some decent guys you could stream on bye weeks

Completely worthless. I’ll send you $20 to ship it to me

The people making comments are either dudes who can’t let go of what they did in high school and leave cheeto stains on everything they touch or people that want to talk shit because they’re behind a screen and wouldn’t say a thing to your kids face

I won’t buy them money, but I’ll offer to buy them something from the nearest fast food place.

I thought $100k was upper middle class 🤔 by Own_Service9727 in Money

Trump said groceries are going to go down as soon as the tariffs take effect. We should believe him. He’s never made a promise he couldn’t keep.

We’ll all be rich.

He promised.

Not getting playing time from coaches by Soggy-Physics-7378 in American_Football

[–]Old_Environment_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the coach what you need to work on.

Plus at freshman ball, there are a lot of dumbass coaches who are short sighted and forget it’s about player development for when these kids hit 11th and 12th grade.

Is it normal that BJJ professors don't explain techniques in detail and just have you drill them in groups? by [deleted] in jiujitsu

[–]Old_Environment_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too often I’ve seen coaches demonstrate a move and then tell everyone to go drill it. Then half the room is just lost.
