@jesseb04 i'm not surprised to hear it tbh but any source on this? is it because of the games last year?

@aaron2025 yeah, i said above that i do think the rule is unnecessary. i was probably a bit too harsh on ohlsen there and definitely think the rule should be binned

@ezie zero for the event. and i think noah's listed snatch PR is 288#, so i don't think him continuing to try for 265# is out of the question— or at least pretending he is

@12345susie He's just not "likeable" like Vellner or Medeiros or Toomey. I don't like him as a personality but that doesn't really matter— he followed the rules that Crossfit set out, he came back, and he's crushing.

@pinkphie that's fair. i think it's a weird rule anyway, and they'd be so inconsistent in applying it that it makes no difference.

@rasnosauj i don't know. i said it above and probably should've said originally, i do think it's a strange rule. there's no way to apply it in a consistent way, and all five of them are pretty fucking fit, so getting 'no effort' in any context feels strange

@the_laconic_dead agreed, that was the first thing I thought when I saw him walk away from the bar. if that wasn't a clear-cut instance of where that rule needs to be applied, i don't know what is

@enochswalk I agree. I really liked the early stuff when they first started the channel, but it's so self-aggrandizing now that it's really irritating. I do like that they seem to do things thoughtfully, but the style of the videos now is just unwatchable

@giftsigns Just laughed out loud at the commentator talking about Kanyo being a wildfire firefighter. "In Canada, they ship firefighters to rural areas to fight fires" like it's some unhinged thing and wildfires don't exist anywhere else— especially not in California, where the WCC is held

@mesch I'm wondering that, too. There's not even weight to change.

@hbyej60 oh yeah, that's fair. i think those cuts were bs in general, but I agree. he should have withdrawn.

@hbyej60 Wasn't Moorad injured? I'm assuming you're talking about last year's games?

@oxo You know it's bullshit because you can also make the opposite argument with so many of the same words: "I'm devoting myself to being the best I can be to Crossfit because I know the Lord wants me to follow my passions, not money, and spread His word as best I can" or whatever the fuck

@zhivko Oh yeah. I can see how she just doesn't always interview that well tbh. I remember after the CFG her comment about "I’m not looking at the new ‘Barbie’ movie, [saying] ‘Oh, I want to look like that.’ I want to look like what I look like.” When if you actually take one look at the movie...

@zhivko Oh, sorry, I didn't catch the interview. What'd she say?

@aaron2025 I mean, you can only beat who's in front of you. Tia IS like 5 months post-baby, but she was still there, and Laura still won it.

@truthnotfiction That's to be expected tbh, half-marathons are distance training, not speed. I run ultras and strength train alongside them, so sometimes two-a-days are part of that. What matters more than anything else is whether the training is complementary, as well as that training's...

@kennybest Already? Why?

@giftsigns I remember watching one of the BTS things and having to stop because his questioning of one of the women was so uncomfortable and gross. If I could deal with him I'd go back and put together a list of his worst questions

@jonjones229 Tia's muscle-ups are so smooth and efficient it's ridiculous
