Avs and Ducks both won huge games last night

just checked the scores from last night and Avs went into Minnesota and won 5-2, they're up 3-1 in the series now. One more win and they're in the conference final. MacKinnon took a puck to the face and still came back and scored. dude is just different also Anaheim tied their series with Vegas 2-2 after a 4-3 win at home, they were down and came back in the third, huge win for them . Mitch is still leading the playoffs in points though. had three assists in the loss. that guy is carrying the knights right now.

how do you actually get deeper edges without losing speed

I've been watching videos of good skaters and their edges just look so deep. like they're carving into the ice. when i try to lean more I just slow down or almost trip over my own blade. Coach says to bend my knees more but when I do that my upper body falls forward and I lose my posture, also heard that you need to push more from the ball of your foot instead of the whole blade but that feels weird. anyone have a drill that helped them find that deep edge feeling without grinding to a halt, For live games and replays https://livearenao.com/

Chris Caray is calling a TNA match

I saw the announcement, the A's broadcaster is gonna be a guest commentator for the sacramento street fight that's random as hell. Fourth generation mlb voice just shows up in a wrestling booth. He said he's bringing a baseball bat for protection lol, calls himself a longtime wrestling fan and shouted out Nic Nemeth. Street fight is AJ Francis vs KC Navarro so it's gonna be a brawl. A's are terrible this year anyway so maybe he just wanted to do something fun.

what does Lebron actually do now

Lakers got swept and now everyone's guessing. Lebron said after the game he doesn't even know what's next and needs to talk to his family first. Some reporters are saying the lakers want to build around Luka and might ask Lebron to take less money if he stays. Austin Reaves said he hopes he comes back but that's just him being nice. Byron Scott said on his podcast that Lebron should go back to Cleveland or try to play with Steph. Warriors are still interested apparently. Personally I don't think he retires, dude still averaged 21 and 7 this season and carried them past Houston when everyone else was hurt. I feels like he's got one more run left.

Jacob Fatu is booked like a horror movie villain now lol

The raw from last night was crazy and I'm still processing. Roman beats Fatu at Backlash and you think maybe that's the end for now, nope. Fatu shows up at the acknowledgment ceremony and just destroys everyone, chair shots didn't matter, superman punches? shrugged them off powerbomb through the announce table, tongan death grip multiple times then after they finally pull him off he comes back and hip attacks the whole bloodline through the barricade. The dude is booked like the fiend at this point, unbeatable until he's suddenly not. The Usos looked like total chumps just lying there the whole time.

slow down someone who never stops moving

There's a guy at my gym who is always moving, like never stands still even for a second constantly bouncing, circling, snapping, faking. By the time I figure out what he's doing he's already taking my back or throwing me. if I try to match his pace I gas out in two minutes. if I try to slow him down he just keeps moving. coach says to control the grips and make him carry my weight but he just shakes his arms loose. any strategy for dealing with someone who just never stops, also how do you force a pace that works for you instead of playing their game.

how do families afford club soccer these days

Did the math on what we've spent on club fees, travel, hotels, tournaments, and private training over the last few years. It's more than a year of college tuition at a state school. We're not rich, both of us work full time and we've made sacrifices, skipped vacations, drove old cars, ate at home a lot. Now my daughter is committed to a d1 school but only got a partial scholarship. Still going to be paying thousands out of pocket and i see families at tournaments flying to showcases in Florida and California like it's nothing. Are people just going into debt for this or do they actually have that much money. Also how do you tell your kid to keep grinding when you're already stretched thin. Feeling like we're in too deep to stop but not sure how much longer we can keep going.

how do you fence someone who keeps running away

every time I start to set up an attack, the guy just backs up, all the way down the strip. I end up chasing him for like fifteen seconds, get tired, and then he suddenly stops and scores on me when I'm out of position. It feels like I'm fencing a moving target instead of an actual opponent. My buddies just tell me to just hold my ground and make him come to me but then the ref calls passivity on both of us. anyone have a way to trap someone who refuses to engage.

El Torkey and melissa just wrecked the seedings

i'm honestly stunned. El Torkey is at his first ever worlds and he just took out the number 6 seed in straight games, didn't even look close. Kid is 21 and playing like he's been here before. On the women's side Melissa Alves did something even wilder. She's ranked 20th and she beat the 7th seed in straight games too. That's a huge upset two massive upsets on the same day in the same tournament. Gotta love it when the lower ranked players just show up and take out the favorites.

resin grip gloves people are wearing

What's the deal with those gloves ,, kept seeing players in my league wearing those gloves with the little sticky dots on the palm. Some of them swear by it, say they never drop a ball anymore even with sweaty hands, others say it's cheating because the ball doesn't move like it's supposed to. I tried a cheap pair once and felt like I couldn't release the ball cleanly on my passes, everything stuck to my hand. Maybe I just got a bad brand. anyone found a pair that actually helps without messing up your touch.

have you guys seen the 300 light tube match

rewatched Ryuji Ito vs Takashi Sasaki from 2005 I guess. Seconds in and both guys are bleeding from tubes shattered over their heads, broken glass everywhere, suplexes and powerbombs on it like it was nothing. Sasaki's back and arms were shredded by the end. You don't see stuff like this anymore.

crowds used to actually believe it and that's what i miss

I've been watching some territory stuff from the 70s and 80s and something about it just hits different. The crowds were actually scary btw, not in a dangerous way but like they genuinely believed what they were watching. People threw trash, refs got bumped and stayed down for five minutes, heels needed escorts to the back. You don't get that anymore because everyone knows too much now. Also love how every region had its own feel, New york was different from Memphis was different from Portland. For live games and highlights https://livearenao.com/https://livearenao.com/

that USC vs Cal final was way too close for my heart

just watched the replay from La Jolla and my god what a game. USC barely held on 10-9. Cal was the number four seed and nearly took the whole thing. Ausmus was the tournament mvp with like 21 points total which is insane. Anna reed in goal had a career high 14 saves including some ridiculous ones in the fourth. Cal averages like 14 goals a game and USC held them to 9 that's just good defense also Ausmus and Reed both made all tournament first team. Trojans had that heartbreak in the final two years ago so glad they finally got it done. eight titles now for USC. Also this keeps their streak alive of winning at least one national title every year since 2021.

UCLA just won the beach volleyball title and nobody talked about it

saw the results from gulf shores and had to double check. Ucla swept Stanford for the championship, their first one since 2019. Perez and Boyd clinched it. Williamson and Dueck won a tight second set to put them up 2-0. Stanford was the top seed and almost undefeated this season. Ucla was number three, just feels like beach nationals should get way more attention than they do. These girls have been grinding all season. Anyway congrats to the bruins. Jenny Johnson Jordan got her first title as head coach too which is cool.

the colts got fined 15k for that press conference lol

I just saw the news and I'm still laughing. Barrie colts got fined fifteen grand after their post game press conference went viral. They just kept saying "no one cares work harder" to every single question after winning game seven. Coach Smoskowitz called it a mistake and apologized on tsn the next day. Still funny though, also they're down 2-0 in the finals against Kitchener so maybe focus on that now lol. For live games and threads https://www.reddit.com/live/1gvof9amespjn/

I've seen this happen so many times in league nights. Lanes start changing a little and someone panics and grabs a completely different ball out of their bag. Then they can't find the pocket for the next two frames. The pros make small adjustments , move a board left or right, change speed, change hand position. They don't just grab a different ball unless the lanes have completely fallen apart. Most bowlers would be better off trusting their equipment and making tiny tweaks instead of overhauling everything at once. Switching balls should be a last resort not a first reaction.

funny how quiet it gets when you're far from shore

Hi, I was out on a lake last weekend and paddled way further than usual. Got to the middle and just stopped for a minute, no cars, no people, no music from someone's bluetooth speaker, just the sound of my paddle dripping and some birds far away. It felt almost weird at first like something was missing then I just sat there for a while and listened. You don't get that feeling anywhere else, not on a hike or sitting in my backyard. Something about being surrounded by water with no land noise. Anyway just something I noticed made me realize why people keep going out even when it's cold or raining.

feels like everyone just wrestles from their knees now

I've been watching a lot of high school and college matches lately and something I've noticed, guys barely even try to stay on their feet anymore. Shot gets stuffed and they just pull half guard or sit out to their knees immediately. Nobody really fights to get back to their base anymore. Not saying it's bad wrestling but it's definitely different than even ten years ago. Feels like the scramble is the whole match now instead of the setup. Just an observation, not even sure if it's better or worse. Just different.

Hi , I was checking out at the scores from saturday and some good matchups. Oregon taking two from Ucla in westwood was surprising. Thought Ucla would bounce back after losing game one but they dropped game two as well. Also love the Ducks got officially locked into the tournament. They've been on a roll, Tennessee dropped a game to auburn in extras. Rocky top classic was on and I saw highlights of Wisconsin doing a team huddle thing that looked fun. Also that Northwestern vs Ohio state series had some close games. Feels like everyone is getting ready for conference tournaments now.

nobody warns you about the sitting pain

Hi guys, have you ever watch rowing on tv and it looks so smooth. Nobody mentions that your butt feels like it got into a fight after every long piece. I'm not talking about sore muscles. I'm talking about actual bruises on my sit bones that make walking feel weird. I even tried every seat pad on the market, some help a little but nothing makes it go away completely. My coach just laughed and said welcome to the sport. its been a few months now and I still haven't gotten used to it.
