.@stoolpresidente is all about trash talk during the game, but what Angel Reese did was something else entirely.

Why is Caitlin Clark’s trash talking different than Angel Reese? It’s really not this difficult.

Clark’s was usually in the heat of competition and part of the natural flow of the game. They were subtle, if you blinked you missed it. Reese was end of game, game well in hand by double digits and followed Clark around the court for 20-30 seconds. It was way over the top - it was way too much of a “me” moment and trying way too hard and not in the natural flow of competing.

This is no different from MLB. A glance at a player you strikeout. A brief sword gesture walking off the field. A bat flip while jogging to 1B. It gets different when you’re up 8 runs in the 9th, strike a guy out and follow him back to his dugout to sword him. Or a monster bat flip and a pose at home plate up 6 runs in the 9th.

Reggie Miller’s choke signal to the Knicks was cold/awesome in the heat of the moment. Joe Burrow put a ring on it was walking back to his sideline.

There is a style to talking ish. And Angel Reese was a cheese ball and blew it. Drop a 3 ball on Clark to get the go ahead basket and drop it back on her. Swat her shot into the 3rd row and wag your finger. Don’t follow her around the court for 20 seconds.

We’ve seen others walk this path.

These steps lead to rarefied air.

Justin Medeiros is the two-time Fittest Man on Earth.

Never before.
And perhaps, never again.

Her career arc is unprecedented, her record untouchable.

Six championship titles — CrossFit has no greater champion.

Tia-Clair Toomey is not for an age but for all time.

@TiaToomey 🇦🇺 is the Fittest on Earth.

At the end of the day, can you look yourself in the mirror and say you’re proud of yourself?

If you can’t, it’s ok because you have tomorrow to try again.

Coaches

Please. Please. Remind your athletes their worth isn’t tied to their performance. That they will make mistakes, they will fail, and that’s okay. And when they do, hold out your hand & help them back up.

The # of student athletes battling mental health is far too many.

College softball coaches have pushed for years to extend the schedule at the Women's College World Series.

This year's event may have finally been a tipping point.

The obstruction rule NEEDS TO CHANGE. That rule takes away ANY play a catcher can make at the plate. #WorstRuleEver #WCWS #NCAASoftball

With Mike Candrea’s retirement and Caitlin Lowe being named @ArizonaSoftball’s new head coach, the @pac12 now has ALL female softball head coaches 👏

Not only that, but 6 out of 9 are alums leading their alma maters.

Leading the way in breaking barriers and paying it forward.
