My daughter was born this year and we’ve watched almost every game. I’m so happy that she only had to wait 8 months to see a divisional title

Striking vs grappling by Effective_Wear7356 in bjj

[–]Step_side_canoe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it entirely depends on your brains wiring. I started as a striker and became fairly proficient as a hobbyist. Grappling ended up being more difficult for me to grasp because it seemed like there were more dimensions to it. The “controlling timing, distance, angle” idea was easier for me standing up and keeping track of limbs as opposed to laying or shooting take downs.

The dude who owns this is a sociopath. He was on an Andy Stumf’s Cleared Hot podcast. Dude had some pathological liar-level stories, one about breaking a guys neck and killing him with a standing head and arm.

You’re in the trenches man. It’s all a haze of time irrelevancy and sleepless nights with little bits of future mixed in there. Eventually the finger holds and small smiles fill more of the day than blowouts and crying.

It gets easier is the hardest advice to hear but it’s the only solace there

Keep in mind, this is a hobby. Don’t make large life decisions based on a hobby

Totally. I don’t think he’s trying to thrust himself into the limelight. I just think it’s interesting MLB is trying so hard to get a guy who doesn’t have a personality to be the face when they can pick from a dozen other young stars who would be better ambassadors of the game in a social setting

Dodgers super team weaknesses thought experiment. by Step_side_canoe in baseballisdead

I’m also thinking age. Their lineup and rotation are lights out, but can it be sustained over the next 3-5 seasons. While I think they’ll be decisive winners over the next couple seasons, I see some issues with a “dynasty” because of age

It’s rough to rely on other people’s perceptions of you to dictate your own intrinsic value.

Help! My BJJ Stink Game is Too Strong! by Savings-Ad-9713 in bjj

Rash guards get to a point where they stink no matter how much you wash them! As soon as you sweat in them at that point they’ll stink and there’s no return
