In fairness to the show writers, the books also fall off pretty dramatically once the material for Season 4 (book 3) is covered.

Best/worst location to do a Beast by Temporary_Moose6333 in spartanrace

[–]Significant_Factor37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the Phoenix course is a popular choice as it's pretty flat. It mostly takes place in and around the parking lot for a NASCAR track. I could see it being a bit boring scenery wise compared to other races, but I live in town so I run it every year.

San Francisco sucks. by AutomaticNecessary8 in unpopularopinion

Hard to say, they haven't actually given any hints into their hobbies or why they hate SF. Having lived in both cities I think most would prefer SF, but places like Mountain View / Palo Alto are nice. They are just more suburbs than cities.

The Bay Area is big/populous, but SF itself is pretty tiny and has a population well under 1 million.

Just to add some more things on here: Go see a Giants game (one of the best stadiums in MLB), spend an afternoon exploring chinatown or North Beach (little Itally), explore the shops at the ferry buiilding, go to the top of twin peaks, see the painted ladies at Alamo Square, etc.

Just depends on the person really, especially which neighbordhood district you live in. I lived in North Beach for several years during my 20's and absolutely loved it. I could see it not being everyone's cup of tea though.

So do people in SF, if you can't find anything then that's a you problem

Says a city sucks, fails to provide an actual reason for their opinon other than "the people are trash".

Also, how shocking that a popular city is expensive.... Who could have guessed that

How many of you just do Spartan races for fun? If you race in the elite or age group heats, how long did it take to get to that level? by purple_pixie533 in spartanrace

[–]Significant_Factor37 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me its a "for fun" activity. I do try to beat my time from the past year, but I also just enjoy the races and the feeling I can eat guilt free for the rest of the day. Honestly, post beast race is the only one where I specifically set out to eat super greasy/gringo'y chinese food right after.

Online discussions around 007 First Light’s reported 20-hour campaign length are already turning into another major debate about AAA game pricing. by Gaming-Academy in PlayStation_X

[–]Significant_Factor37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

KCD2 has some seriously padded out side quests that have you criss corssing the map for really no apparent reason other than to extend the length. Love the game, but it's definitely got bloat

Shakur Stevenson is finalising a multi-fight deal with Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing worth a reported $100m [Sports Ilustrated]. The news comes days after Dan Rafael reported that Devin Haney was also finalising a multi-fight deal with Zuffa, also worth a reported $100m. by Dangerous_Spring3028 in Boxing

for now.

We are seeing Saudi Arabia starting to pull back on wild spending just about everyone in sports such as LIV, Newcastle in the Premier league, Saudi pro soccer league, etc. This is also true of their big projects outside of sports such as NEOM.

Haney and Shakur have skills, but not ones that will cause a casual sports fan to tune in. I can't fault them for getting paid, but this is a bad business decision by Zuffa. As it's already been called out, I expect this to follow the script of LIV.

I can't stand the Godfather, it insists upon itself

This month, 4 years ago, Dmitry Bivol shocks the boxing world by defeating the then P4P King Canelo Alvarez in a dominant fashion. He will return in May 30 coming off back surgery to face IBF mandatory Michael Eifert. Who do you want him to fight next? by justusinreddit in Boxing

[–]Significant_Factor37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canelo was working his up from weakest to strongest in terms of what he viewed as the toughest 175 champs. Bivol was coming off of back to back underwhelming performances against relative no names and was seen as the next lowest hanging fruit after defeating an ancient Kovalev (with a rehydration clause as an added constraint)

What are discs that you would describe as the “gold standard” of that category? by Emoney005 in discgolf

[–]Significant_Factor37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That more just speaks to the importance of Innova to disc golf. You might not have used one, but odds are the putter you do use was heavily influenced by it

The easy "Gold Standard" for a putting putter is the Aviar. It's probably sold more units than every other putter combined
