I am telling you today that the Seattle Seahawks will not lose another game this season. I saw enough last game vs the Rams to know what this defense has become. @Softykjr
@zbitter I then noticed my heart rate was not rising at all when shifting to the higher effort. Too small of sample size, but you 2 were on my mind both runs today.
@zbitter I'm thinking the stress of being different will mess with the mind. Having a team of people doing the same will add more courage to embrace the change.
@zbitter My variation is to reverse split effort, not pace. I am looking at pace later. I simply run like I'm on a long road trip, then 2nd half I go with a tiny bit of effort, like very little more.
Years from now, I believe people will look back on this moment as one of the greatest self-inflicted failures in professional sports.
The public was ready.
Fans were excited.
Millions of people who had never watched a WNBA game suddenly became invested in women's basketball.
The league had the rarest opportunity in sports... a transformational superstar capable of changing its trajectory for generations.
Instead of embracing that moment, the WNBA chose culture wars over basketball, politics over player protection, and ideology over leadership.
Rather than showcasing the game at its best, it allowed controversy, inconsistency, and internal division to become the story.
And the generation of young girls who finally saw the sport capturing the nation's attention, instead got to watch the league squander one of the greatest growth opportunities it has ever been given.
@DavidDack To be fair, my super shoes did sit in the closet patiently. Just keeping them enshrined on their own shelf wasn't really fair to them. They were made to run and they were left in the dark for months. The shoes deserve to share some of the glory.
@zbitter You're so spot on here. For me, YK vs Fejes at ATY literally got me hooked on ultra running from a fan perspective. Great lineups with great competition is 100x more pleasurable to follow than one person dominating start to finish.
@daltine_cracker Remember how it felt with Mariano setting up for Wetteland? Nothing to get upset about. Braves are loaded and the manager is using the pieces as he wants. What if Fuentes is the best closer in the mix? Let Weiss cook.
