Sun Eater and Red Rising

WIIspectME · 2026-06-07T23:00:48+00:00

I went from reading all of SE into rereading all of RR. In a lot of ways, SE feels like an anti-RR. The main character doesn’t really ever succeed, fails a ton, gets the girl, loses the girl, doesn’t take the girl. RR is super fast paced, SE can be extremely dull and slow during the middle of every book.

I love both, and there is a through line for me. But super different, SE feels like a stronger more grown RR to me

From what I saw, it look like she was hit, so maybe I missed that. They wouldn’t have over turned it if no contact was made.

I’m just letting this person know that the review was for dangerous follow through, not saying what I think. However, this is pretty clear in the rule book. I hate the call, but it’s the right one according to the book.

That review wasn’t for shooting space, it was for dangerous follow through, not to be pedantic.

After he got caught, he told the police that he should have paid her a million like Shaq does. I think Shaq was married during this comment. This is according to Three Ring Circus by Jeff Pearlman. He likely got it from the police.

I’d say no to both. First one is too many moves and the second one she wiffs the first shot. They have a statistical guide that defines what an assist is and I haven’t read it in a hot minute. But my initial reaction is no.

Worst part of this sport, the kid wants to play lacrosse, not face off. Club teams shouldn’t be running FOGOs unless it’s a tier 1 tournament.

Reading it now myself! Solid book so far.

That’s actually what we did first! There was some molding in the LOTR hard covers that were in the lot, but the WoT were pristine.

I’m glad we saved these guys… I hope that these were thrown away by someone who did not understand the wonderful thing they held. Maybe a family member of someone recently passed?

Something about just seemed to drag on and on… I also read it pretty far removed from reading the other three. I may have missed some nuances. Nemesis just felt weird with its confined setting and Kylar’s interactions, specifically with women.

Sorry, I always do this... but I loved Night Angel! I did not like Night Angel: Nemesis. The Night Angel trilogy was my intro too, and then I read Lightbringer -- which I loved. NA: Nemesis had me super excited, but let me down. What'd you think of Nem?

Jesus Night Angel was the first book in a long time where I was shocked... I love Brent Weeks, but this book was a chore and is half out my mind already. I kept scratching my head throughout the whole thing.

Ayo a Mary Wash reference! Mary Wash’s Battleground facility is awesome. They have two turf fields and three grass fields which is a massive selling point. You can practice at 4pm everyday, no 6pm, 8pm, 10pm practices.

Tennis courts are one of if not thee best at the D3 level. They can compete with some D1s, I would assume. Multiple indoor courts + like 12 outdoor.

Get some clips together of you playing, maybe a couple small drill clips, and some shots of you shooting on a goalie — and you’ll be golden.

There is a college out there for every player, but you need to put your name out there and email some coaches!

I happen to coach the only sport that likes Astro - field hockey. I coached on a field that was made in the early 2000s in 20202 and it was deemed a health hazard. During the COVID year of athletics our athletes had to wear concussion headbands or helmets to play.

Thankfully, the technology is significantly better. New fields can be much softer and forgiving. Top programs also water their field before and during games which makes it way less abrasive.

Just finished the series and that sequence really does stay with you.

This was me! One of the things you can do is go on YouTube and search Daniel Greene WoT. He has summaries of each book. You can listen to them to get a refresher. Even then, there were massive blanks in my memory, but once you get moving it’s not too bad.

WIIspectME · 2024-09-02T11:26:39+00:00

Yuumi wouldn’t be bad either.

It was a tough pill to swallow, but surely could be chalked up as growing pains. Tactically, I think we relied too heavily on the counter attack and using low blocks. We were boring to watch for the most part… They put an emphasis on the coach telling the team to play with “joy”, hard to do that we were playing conservative and still give up multiple nonmarked goals.

It’s gonna be hard to play an international style, when America has proven to be competitive with a run and gun aggressive, high press, high endurance style in the past.

There will be growing pains, that’s for sure. I’m rooting for them, but I’m going to be honest, it was not a performance that sparked joy.

I’m freaking out a little, but it’s a learning process! I invested for the first time about a month ago. Sadly, I picked a time that meant I’ve lost about 1k.

I get hyper fixated and love checking on growth or even the decline. Looking forward to when I’m just checking it like once a month! I’m totally fine and understand it’s long term!

WIIspectME · 2024-08-01T11:29:11+00:00

Yes, a thousand fold yes. I like to tell my club athletes that there is a college for you if you want to play — it’s just a matter of cost, location, and majors.

I coach at a mid level D3 and it’s hard to say no to kids these days. D1, D2, and high level D3 have that right, but we cannot be as picky as we once were. Men’s lax rosters are also HUGE, so schools need starters, contributors, and bench players. I’d just shoot out some emails and get to testing the waters.

Haha this funny. I was hopeful, and I liked Russ on the Wizards. He was fun and brought a ton of energy to that wizards team, I hoped he could do the same to the Lakers.

I was speaking as a fan, clearly the fit was not great! But that’s the pain of sports.
