Then he decided to just go ham on me one serve and go full power. He usually hit 110mph on his serves, and I just went blank, dropped my racket and cowered. The ball missed me, at least. He laughed, apologized and we went back to normal. This was a high schooler. A pro is just gonna kill me.

Otherwise I could try and run up to volley, that way it’s a relatively swift, merciful death when her return plows a hole straight through my torso. She would never double fault because she would never have to hit a first serve. None of us could return her second serve, at least not in a way that wouldn't result in her hitting a winner every time e: it's funny how the people who convince themselves they could take a point off Serena point to her and Venus losing to Karsten Braasch because he was ranked 203 at the time. He'd been a pro for a decade at that point while both Williams sisters were still in high school, an d also none of these dudes could take a point off Braasch either People grossly underestimate how much better pros are. That's why I loved it when Brian Scalabrine humiliated a bunch of poo poo talkers Intruder fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Mar 1, 2024 |

The hardest heat I ever dug in on was this short king from Hilton Head who was cracking 96 in high school and the sizzle of that ball whistling past your chest was pretty incredible. I caught a couple guys who threw high 90s at camp and it’s a lot different from that perspective obviously. That dude was productive at the citadel and played independent league (I just found on baseball reference). Just mindbending heat. And that was 24ish years ago, it’s crazy how kids are just steeped in camp culture from a young age and high 90s is almost a prereq for success anymore.

I played college sports…briefly. I was one of the better players on my team in HS and I wasn’t close to being top 20-30 in college. That poo poo will humble you super quick. e: lol there was more to that but I got distracted and accidentally post it. All that to say I hold no illusions that I could come close to doing anything vs Serena or Venus. They’d blow a hole through me in a second. I’d be the guy that lost to someone 200 times and then finally beat them and his quote was something like “let that be a lesson that nobody beats (me) 201 times in a row” Joey Freshwater fucked around with this message at 02:17 on Mar 1, 2024 |

One of the guys at our pickup night brought a guy who played D1 college ball like a decade prior and said he hadn't picked up a basketball since. The dude completely effortlessly dismantled everyone even though he was very clearly taking it extremely easy on us He never came back, I assume because of just how bored he was playing with us e: in a way I feel bad for guys like him. It has to be extremely difficult to find a group of people to play with who he doesn't badly outclass and can have fun playing with

Intruder posted:e: in a way I feel bad for guys like him. It has to be extremely difficult to find a group of people to play with who he doesn't badly outclass and can have fun playing with I graduated young so I didn’t really put on any real power until I played some odd travel ball for a couple years in college, but I always had a loving cannon. Like a 1.8-1.9 camp-verified pop time cannon. Defensive catching and throwing were my best skills always. So years after, I was playing men’s league softball with a bud who needed an extra player (who I knew from being ringers on beer league teams) and we played this travel men’s team. One of the guys was Bryce Florie, that Red Sox pitcher who got his face mashed in by a liner a bunch of years ago. Well, not that I had any illusions that I had an even remotely major league arm anymore, but watching a someone effortlessly fire a softball 360ft on a line was pretty humbling. They kicked the poo poo out of us.

The other day I found out my GF hadn’t seen Spartacus and we just so happened to be next to a used media store the other night and they just so happened to have the first season for like $6 so I grabbed it (which I’ve been doing more and more lately as streaming services continue to suck more and more, barely a year after I purged tons of physical media to a used media store  ).I uh, don’t remember it taking so long for Spartacus to actually show up, lol. LeeMajors posted:Each step is so much harder than the last that it’s almost inconceivable the amount of athleticism you need to be an everyday pro. Yeah, that part’s crazy. Back when I raced motorcycles there was a dude (he’s still at it actually, in his 40s, God knows how) that just fuckin wiped the floor with everyone and set regional amateur records left and right and was just nigh untouchable. Worked his way towards an opportunity to race at like one of the lowest Pro levels and got crushed lol. He’s still dabbling in the pro stuff years later and I don’t think he’s done better than mid-field on a good day. Same thing when you look at accomplished pro racers that take the next step, like so many World Superbike champions getting a MotoGP ride and just getting demolished. It’s crazy.

I still play Australian football, and it's all a hobby. There are a couple guys who trained with pro clubs like once or twice, but nothing more. a year or two before the pandemic, we had somebody come by and watch at a game. one of my teammates was like, "I think I recognize him, but not sure." guy came to a couple practices and played with us the rest of the year - turns out he was formerly a pro in the AFL in Australia, and was on working holiday with his partner (now wife). Think somebody who got a cup of coffee in the majors coming to join your beer league softball team. it was unreal and unfair, but that made it pretty fun as well

Went out running this morning, as I have done twice a week for the last 15 months or so. Now I call it running, but it's more a mixture of jogging/shambling but it gets me out of the house and counts a physical exercise. Anyway, the night before my run I always check the weather to see what it's going to be like when I'm out and this morning's forecast was for 18-20mm of rain an hour. No biggie, I'll get soaked but it should be fine. Leave my house to no rain, and after a mile or so it starts lightly falling so I think to myself "ah, I might miss the worst of it". Oh how wrong I was, as within five minutes the light rain had turned heavy, and a few minutes later 40-50mph hour gusts were thrown into the mix and I quickly went from "gently caress, I'm wet" to "my clothes are literally dripping water, I am freezing cold and I'm a good 10 minute run from my house". After sheltering my the Napoleonic era sea walls down by the front, and the rain and wind eased off slightly, I ran as quick as I physically could. Had a hot shower which I could barely feel, had to wring out the water from my gear, my trainers are soaked and I'm still cold now some seven hours after getting back inside

Hey Fiz I want to write a movie about a director and writer who team up to break into a studio headquarters to steal and release a movie marked for deletion for tax purposes. Will you star as yourself, an actor in said movie, who is part of the heist crew? I am thinking it will be similar to Fanboys, but with some Ocean's 11 thrown in but in the dumbest way possible. Could be subtitled The Gang Plans a Heist.

I can be a gaffer Googles gaffer quote:In film and television crews, the gaffer or chief lighting technician is the head electrician, responsible for the execution (and sometimes the design) of the lighting plan for a production. The gaffer's assistant is the best boy electric. .... what? quote:In a film crew, there are two kinds of best boy: best boy electric and best boy grip. They are assistants to their department heads, the gaffer (in charge of electricals) and the key grip (lighting and rigging), respectively.[1] In short, the best boy acts as the foreman for the department. A woman who performs these duties may be called best girl. .... why is this not wiki vandalization, why is this called this?

I have been watching Mythbusters (at least the random seasons available on Max) while doing stuff in the kitchen and I really wish they would come back for a little bit. They really caught lightning in a bottle with that show. Also, I found myself wishing at some point they had a Mythbusters/Jackass crossover where the Jackass guys would just do the stuff without the safety precautions.
