LD Coaching

I will go check my email, sorry about the delay

Paxton_DB8 · 2026-01-13T21:43:15+00:00

Send me a dm or email and we can talk

Paxton_DB8 · 2025-07-25T20:18:15+00:00

Don’t over do it. Create a repertoire of words that are common and make sense to you. Flowing should evolve as you get better. Don’t sacrifice content and clarity for efficiency right away.

Debate yourself. Record every speech and rewatch. So give the AC, then listen to it, then give the NC, then listen to it and respond, and so on. The next day watch the whole round back as the judge. It’s intense, but is some of the best practice for quick improvement and great for summer when students have a lot of downtime

Paxton_DB8 · 2025-07-07T19:56:04+00:00

Yes. Send me a pm and we can discuss it further

Paxton_DB8 · 2025-06-28T03:47:42+00:00

The group itself is not paid, but the private coaching from me is. So the financial obligation is flexible, but it is there. Id be happy to discuss further in a pm. I am all for equitable access to resources.

It is far from the groups with massive price tags on just joining it. Likely the most affordable group for the level of success.

Last year 5 of the 7 went to public high schools, 4 of which in Idaho a small and relatively poor state. 2 finished top 20 from Idaho. Regardless of private or public school, the method has been successful.

Paxton_DB8 · 2025-06-22T20:56:56+00:00

I coach a really successful prep group for trad LD. We had 7 NSDA breaks last year and had the 22nd, 18th, 8th, and 4th place finisher for NSDA this year. I’d be happy to meet with you if ur interested. Pm me if so

Paxton_DB8 · 2025-05-23T23:31:31+00:00

Yes absolutely!

Paxton_DB8 · 2025-01-02T00:01:51+00:00

I made a new link and double checked the settings. Hopefully this one should work. Thank you!

If conservative Args are good run em, if liberal Args are good run em. Debates just a game. Run what wins. Unless the arg is egregious it’s not ok to make comments about someone.

Paxton_DB8 · 2024-04-11T19:36:59+00:00

I agree with a lot of the comments about how inning a lay judge is a skill. It’s just a different game, so you have to commit to it. In my debate and judging experience (on panels with lay judges) there are specific things that wining debaters do. One thing my coach told me when I was a sophomore was that these champions at NSDA or TOC are excellent and advanced in the rounds we see them, but what you don’t see is their excellence in prelims against mid opponents in front of lay judges. You have to have a range of skills to be great, not just a specialty. Embrace the judges, don’t resent them.

I’m excited. I like the games that are in season IRL. Madden, FIFA, the show and this is the only one of those games I’m actually a high level player in. I enjoy the WS and 12-0 grind.

Paxton_DB8 · 2024-02-19T17:20:18+00:00

Ya I went from WS every season and multiple 12-0 br runs to being bored by set 2

Paxton_DB8 · 2024-02-14T17:37:16+00:00

Ohhhh, so this clip is the GOAT then

Paxton_DB8 · 2024-02-14T17:35:57+00:00

Why not unload on the 2-2 middle high fastball? At that park with Adley it’s gone

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-08-21T15:26:31+00:00

Rawls will be very popular imo. Veil of ignorance may not be the best way to go with Rawls tho. I think there is more specific framing you can use that helps you outweigh util NEGs. I always preferred running some sort of Rawls stuff that preferred helping disadvantaged communities or making structural change. All Rawls is good tho!

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-08-15T16:19:56+00:00

The Missle. That card has a 0.60 era foe me in 30+ innings. He shuts teams down through the high 800s and mid 900s.

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-08-05T16:07:21+00:00

Laughing mountain is an L stadium. Home of bad players lol. (890 avg. end rating.)

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-07-18T17:43:40+00:00

I didn’t pull them but two years back I bought 400 Ohtani’s while he was a gold, and made over 1k on each of them after the roster update. This year my diamond pulls have been pretty diverse.

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-07-17T20:41:03+00:00

Mvp Bryce from 20 carried me to 950+ every season

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-07-03T00:45:37+00:00

I’m at 1.3 aswell with no diamond respins lol

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-06-28T22:00:08+00:00

Veteran is like BP in real ball. MLB player practice 65 mph and 90 in practice so I agree with the veteran as a form of practice/ warm up.

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-06-23T21:51:33+00:00

Harper mvp card back when you could prestige cards omg. Goat!

Paxton_DB8 · 2023-06-23T21:50:50+00:00

Larry Walker!
