Is it Stroud or Kyler that you're making the exception for? I think healthy Kyler with targets and a good OC should prob be better this year, but otherwise clearly yes.

I listened to some national main-stream media stuff that is similarly hyped. Even nonsense like "I think every team in this division might make the playoffs" insane, as if the Vikings didn't exist. I think your elation is reasonable.

General Other Sports Chit-Chat Thread
JudasIscariotTheBird replied to Pushfrog98's topic in Other Sports
Back before my knees and elbows turned into mush, I used to practice jiu jitsu. I was very middling, but it was rare I wasn't the best wrestler in the room, so the MMA guys would often seek me out to spar. I'd show them a technique or two, and they would reciprocate with striking and choking tips. Fun stuff...but some of them were pretty clearly just insane. One of insane guys I rolled with made it as far as Strikeforce, and had some wins over UFC vets. Lumumba had a very sad post-fight-career story before this week, but it just got sadder. https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2024/08/lumumba-sayers-arrest-murder-childs-birthday-party -
Ok, but you were also really excited about Adam Gase. Might want to temper your expectations a touch.

Sure, but even if you are doing that, it gives an unfair buffer (assuming the judges are biased, which I am not making a judgement on either way).

Two things about relatively new sports: If you haven't seen any speed wall climbing, you're missing out. Also, this:

This thread is now officially railless.

Nope. It's going to be Lady's bowling and Fella's golf, for me.

Black Ukrainian member of Parliment wins bronze in Greco wrestling. Pretty cool.

Can I use the term "ladies?"

The Indian woman that the American is (edit: was) wrestling in the finals has a pretty wild, and rootable, story: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-67851193 Update: https://sports.yahoo.com/paris-olympics-indian-wrestler-disqualified-from-gold-medal-match-in-womens-50kg-after-missing-weight-084916292.html

Spoilered if you don't want to know wrestling results, because they'll prob show the match on primetime tonight.

Prob doesn't belong here, but whatever.

Come on. Wilson hasn't even been practicing. Why would he be standing next to Fields during a scrimage? How could he KO Fields with a slap while Fields had his helmet on? You can actually see Wilson in the background far away from the fight. None of that made sense.

Too bad they couldn't ban Israel. But at least the French crowds have been giving it to them (and Joel Embiid) whenever possible. Excellent hosting.

Still better than Beach Volleyball. They spam that sport so gd much that they forced me into buying Peacock so I can watch some Judo and Team Handball!

Yeah, I posted a very topical UCB sketch about astronaut prejudice. It was a shame. -

You can always parse results to tell yourself a story that reconfirms whatever biases you have, so in general, people shouldn't do that. However, when it is a player's first season starting with a bunch of rookie and second-year receivers (somehow, exclusively), it's maybe allowed to weight the second half slightly higher than the first. And then there was the playoffs... I'm not saying Love is Tom Brady, but the Packers would be crazy not to shove a large pile of money in his direction.
