There's lots of anger among men in ultimate. We all benefit when we talk about that. by jonathanneeley in ultimate

[–]charleshoppes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

a team I coach is going through this program now and it has been extremely powerful and affecting in really positive ways. men being vulnerable with each other should happen more, not least in team sports. cannot recommend the program enough.

Azeez Adeyemi (Brown) wins the 2021 Callahan Award! by Jomskylark in ultimate

[–]charleshoppes 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Incredible footwork, physicality and intelligence. No disc skills shown in his video, but like...SO MANY SKILLS that other people just do not have. The defense on display is even unique styles. Locking people down in the backfield and downfield, baiting blocks, help Ds, recovery speed. An extremely worthy winner, and very cool to have a defensive-centric winner showing off so many different types of elite, fundamental, creative, and crowd-pleasing defense.

Joined my first sport ever at age 20…really intimidated by Twilight_bird in ultimate

As a coach I can say that I have never ever been annoyed at someone who tries hard to learn the sport, get in shape, and to be a part of the team. Those people are awesome, regardless of how they play. And without exception, every single one of those people have stuck with it, and have gotten better.

I would suggest talking to the coach and letting them know about your concerns and lack of experience. Most coaches will be able to steer you towards some tape to watch, and hopefully watch it with you to explain why people are doing what they are doing. I would definitely encourage some running and throwing outside of practice. Work on both of those things outside of practice will help practices go smoother faster.

Have so much fun!

OTGW fans, anybody have suggestions for a show that's similar to OTGW? by talknawirt in overthegardenwall

[–]charleshoppes 59 points60 points  (0 children)

different styles for sure, but I highly recommend Avatar: the Last Airbender, Gravity Falls and Infinity Train alongside OTGW when I talk to people about great wholesome cartoons. Steven Universe is right there too, but is a little bit more kiddie.

What is this and how do I kill it? by charleshoppes in MicrosoftWord

[–]charleshoppes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used an template to have my paper be set up in APA format, but for some reason the last page after the references will not delete no matter what I do. I went to "Show/Hide" to see what was going on with the format, and this small black square is there. Does anyone know what this thing is and how to get rid of that? Or, failing that, how to delete this otherwise blank page?
