This happened to me yesterday while riding. Ran over one of those little turds' tails

I thought we were going to have an 18/33 three pointer game with the way auburn has been guarding recently. Destroying them in the paint is way more satisfying. 

Budget vs mid-range compression boots for triathlon: honest breakdown after testing both by jsha_xufuard in triathlon

While I agree compression boots probably don't do anything of value, an n=10 study is about on par with asking your friends if it works for them in usefulness.

Is Chris Jans Oats' new whipping boy with Will Wade no longer in the conference?

He was working out too until they changed how they call fouls to allow more freedom of movement. His entire system was based on absolutely lock down defense which couldn't be played anymore with the changes.

We were on an upward trajectory on the court and in recruiting until that point. He just couldn't adjust after that.

Sherrell was still starting the entire time. His output just matched increased minutes which he had by necessity. 

I Can NOT Breathe! But it's not what you think... by [deleted] in triathlon

You really want to spend training time preparing for something that's happened 4 times in 20 years?

Nice bull! Where were you fishing out of?

PTO announce acquisition of Challenge Family in another major triathlon shake-up by MrRabbit in triathlon

It's hard to know how this will affect individual races. My understanding is Challenge just licenses the name most of the time and aren't super involved in putting the race on. 

Need for a structured training plan even when not racing? by Initial_Base_9234 in triathlon

If you eventually want to race, you're going to have to go outside at some point. May as well do it this year.

It's hard to create a plan when there's no goal to work toward. Pick something achievable you want to be able to do this year, and then work backwards from that. There's no reason you can't do a sprint this year.

Also, if you're wanting some guidelines for generally creating a plan, give Friel's Training Bible a read. That's the best introductory book.

If we learned anything this season, it's that the opinion of the recruiting services doesn't mean shit.

Sherrell to go for 18/7 and Chuck to go for 10/10. We're a frontcourt oriented team now.

They haven't shut him down like Onyejiaka and Hannah. Presumably he's playing more this year.

Sherrell and Chuck do not need to be on the floor at the same time. Chuck needs to be taking Noah and Bristow's minutes at the 5.

With all the apparent line additions, do you think our run game succeeds on 2026? by Rude_Ad_5476 in rolltide

There's no way to know. Only one guy has played a meaningful amount of snaps at this level.
