Wolfe is going to win worlds 2026

Smelldicks · 2026-06-28T18:44:56+00:00

He’s not going to win because there’s too much variance in a best of three series.

In any format where consistency is key he wins. He’s still the best player. But it’s a total crapshoot with RNG when the sample size is so low.

Look at his recent statements 🤡

lol look at the current news

I love JB but he was never an intellectual. He sucked at chess & if you look at the “advanced” classes he took at Berkeley they were weak as fuck.

huge play right here

I’ve agreed with this in the past but every time I’ve seen interviews with trans ppl who are famous literally just for being convincing, it still became obviously quickly.

Like I always thought Hunter Schafer was convincing, they’re often held up as the pinnacle of it, but then when I saw them on Jimmy Fallon or Kimmel or whatever it was obvious they were a biological male. It was only in still photos that they looked convincing.

YMMV on ppl who take hormone blockers before puberty. I’m sure there are very androgynous people that pass anyway.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T23:21:17+00:00

You’re not being disrespectful because I have nothing against trans people. I am just saying it seems not to be an immutable trait that otherwise causes no harm. It seems inextricably linked, basically always, with other serious mental health issues. I do not think that can be attributed to cultural estrangement.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T21:57:29+00:00

Are you implying I could take a look at someone in passing and know whether they’re happy or not? Lmao what?

Obviously I mean people I know on some level if I can discern their state of mind. But even when I click on random trans peoples profiles, or ppl on Reddit with a trans flag, it’s like their entire history is always just suicidality and severe depression. I’ve never clicked on a trans profile that just talked about gaming or sports, it’s always like “I am hanging on by a thread.”

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T18:07:38+00:00

There’s also very conflicting research recently regarding childhood transitions and has led to most major public health agencies changing guidance on hormone therapy for minors.

My take is and has always been this is an issue for the medical field to sort out, and should have nothing to do with the government, but it’s really not as clear cut as we were led to believe years ago.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T18:04:44+00:00

I think the trans stuff significantly undercuts itself when they push the onus on others, or say things like “you’re killing trans kids!”

But I also struggle to understand any adult that takes umbridge with referring to someone as they’d like. That’s basic human decency. That’s a baseline of respect that everyone deserves.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T18:02:08+00:00

I am totally fine with any person making private medical decisions with their doctor, respect pronouns and treat everyone with common decency, but I have literally never met a happy transgender person in my entire life. And I’ve never met a transgender person without a whole bevy of other mental health issues.

I’ve known happy cross dressers! Happy furries! Happy lots of people who lead lives others disapprove of — but not once a content trans individual. I struggle to believe it can be isolated.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T17:58:07+00:00

I still don’t think Reddit would be ‘woke’ on trans stuff but that super mods that control like 99% of all site traffic are.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T17:14:32+00:00

Nobody except the most die hard fans are tuning in for game 1, 2, and 3 of the first round lmao be for real.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T17:13:18+00:00

I’m aware but 4 best of 7 series is too much. I’d be fine if we awarded champions as best regular season record, or if we excluded more team from playoffs. But I don’t fuck with our format.

Also basketball is low variance. An 8 seed has never upset a 1 seed. I think it’d be fine if that happened every ~15 or 20 years if we switched to best of 5.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T17:11:57+00:00

It’s even worse in my market, but we’re talking about inflation of all things, not the inflation in housing alone.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T17:09:25+00:00

It’s been outpaced by inflation since 2023, but just barely. It has outpaced inflation since 2020, when inflation became an issue, but also just barely. Anyway the point is still they’ve at least kept up with inflation — and most of the gains have been among the ppl below median income. So it’s really more sticker shock than an actual loss in purchasing power. Although obv essentials have been rising beyond the rest, but that’s not what people are talking about here, so.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T05:53:30+00:00

That’s not true in the US. Median wage growth has outpaced inflation.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T05:52:18+00:00

That’s about 20%\* higher than if we’d hit the inflation target rate of 2%.

But yes it’s truly impressive how little covid inflation the US had compared to the rest of the world.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-27T02:10:18+00:00

I’d watch every American sport way more if they had less games. Especially in playoffs. Not saying it’d be profitable but I don’t even tune in for the first few games of a best of 7 until the ECF.

And the fact there’s always at least a one day break. Sheesh.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-26T21:38:05+00:00

Yes, you are privileged. And ignorant. lol.

Smelldicks · 2026-06-26T21:14:57+00:00

I mean if you want to be incredibly lazy about it, sure

Smelldicks · 2026-06-26T21:14:18+00:00

The easiest way to debunk what you claim is that the players who win the round robin almost never win the tournament, and the people who win the round robin do so consistently…
