Lunch with the Clydesdale - Why Does Mayhem have Hurt Feelings? · Clydesdale Media Podcast

• 0:02
  My question is, if you ruptured your ACL,
• 0:06
  would you go seventy miles an hour on
• 0:08
  two sticks?
• 0:09
  Let's talk about that.
• 0:22
  I love the chase and the hunt,
• 0:23
  and I set the pace when I'm running.
• 0:25
  I always take what I'm wanting,
• 0:26
  I always give it one hundred.
• 0:28
  Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
• 0:29
  Play the game like it's nothing.
• 0:31
  I'm always thankful for something.
• 0:32
  Don't take for granted, stay humble.
• 0:34
  Now wake up!
• 0:35
  It's time to look at the enemy.
• 0:37
  Look in the mirror if he is no
• 0:39
  friend to me.
• 0:40
  It's not working out,
• 0:42
  maybe it's the chemistry.
• 0:43
  It's time to break up so I can
• 0:45
  make a better me.
• 0:46
  D-E-M-M-W!
• 0:51
  It's lunch time.
• 0:53
  What is going on, everybody?
• 0:54
  Welcome to Lunch with the Clydesdale.
• 0:56
  Man,
• 0:57
  I haven't seen some of these people in
• 0:58
  a little, in some time, man.
• 1:00
  We've got Ken Walters doing some ribeyes.
• 1:03
  We've got Mike DeVito in the chat.
• 1:04
  We've got Jason Bourne.
• 1:06
  Hey, you never know where that man is.
• 1:09
  He could be on a mission at any
• 1:10
  given time.
• 1:11
  Dear God, that's Jason Bourne.
• 1:13
  It's one of my favorite,
• 1:13
  it's one of my favorite things of all
• 1:17
  time.
• 1:18
  And as Trent Olive always says.
• 1:23
  What's going on?
• 1:25
  We've got Terry.
• 1:27
  We've got Frida.
• 1:28
  We've got Jenny.
• 1:30
  Man.
• 1:31
  All the people.
• 1:34
  Love it.
• 1:35
  Jesus Christ, that's Jason Bourne.
• 1:38
  Jesus Christ, that's Jason Bourne.
• 1:42
  It's one of my favorite GIFs.
• 1:44
  Every time I see somebody doing something
• 1:46
  absolutely ridiculous,
• 1:47
  that's usually my go-to.
• 1:49
  Jesus Christ, that's Jason Bourne.
• 1:52
  We're going to get into some stuff today
• 1:53
  before we get into too much.
• 1:55
  Um,
• 1:56
  spectator tickets for syndicate crown go
• 1:58
  on sale this Friday at noon Eastern time.
• 2:03
  Uh, so back in Knoxville again, love,
• 2:07
  love Wilson Park, man.
• 2:09
  If you,
• 2:10
  he puts on a great event and he
• 2:12
  does everything he can to make it the
• 2:13
  best experience for everybody.
• 2:15
  They usually have stuff like outside the
• 2:16
  arena,
• 2:17
  inside the arena stuff to do for the
• 2:19
  whole family.
• 2:21
  Um,
• 2:22
  I have said over and over again that
• 2:23
  semifinals are my favorite time of the
• 2:25
  year to go see an event.
• 2:27
  It's more intimate.
• 2:28
  You get to see more people.
• 2:29
  You get to sit and have conversations.
• 2:32
  The athletes are more accessible.
• 2:34
  It's the best time to go watch an
• 2:36
  event.
• 2:37
  So those tickets are available this Friday
• 2:40
  at noon Eastern time.
• 2:42
  Get them while they're hot.
• 2:45
  Um,
• 2:46
  so you broke some news to me in
• 2:49
  your personal life,
• 2:50
  your personal competitive life.
• 2:53
  All right.
• 2:54
  Moving on the air.
• 2:55
  You are actually heading on the road.
• 2:58
  Yeah.
• 2:58
  Next Friday I'll be flying to, uh,
• 3:01
  South Carolina to attend or not just
• 3:03
  attend to compete at fitness of the coast,
• 3:06
  um, on a team because,
• 3:09
  so we always talk about how awesome the
• 3:10
  masters community is, right?
• 3:14
  We're probably the biggest proponents of
• 3:15
  them outside the actual Masters podcast
• 3:18
  that happened.
• 3:19
  I met a dude my first year at
• 3:21
  Legends.
• 3:22
  His name's Dwayne.
• 3:23
  He was in my age group.
• 3:25
  Awesome dude.
• 3:26
  We hit it off, hung out,
• 3:28
  bullshitted all weekend.
• 3:30
  and been trying to get together and do
• 3:32
  a competition together basically since
• 3:35
  then and just haven't been able to link
• 3:37
  up.
• 3:37
  Well, he hit me up Monday morning,
• 3:40
  noonish, whatever it was,
• 3:42
  because he apparently tore his bicep at
• 3:43
  TFX over the weekend,
• 3:45
  which I do not recommend.
• 3:47
  TFX, yes.
• 3:48
  Tearing your bicep, not so much.
• 3:52
  And wanted to see if I could take
• 3:53
  his place on a team at Fitness to
• 3:56
  the Coast.
• 3:58
  And this is how good of a dude
• 4:00
  this dude is.
• 4:01
  He's like, just get there.
• 4:03
  He said,
• 4:04
  my wife still wants to go because their
• 4:07
  son and stepdaughter like live in the
• 4:10
  area.
• 4:10
  So I'm going to go visit them.
• 4:12
  He said, take my ticket,
• 4:14
  go on my team, you know, partner up.
• 4:18
  It's co-ed.
• 4:19
  So I'm going in.
• 4:21
  Master's, thirty-five, thirty-nine.
• 4:23
  Yay.
• 4:23
  FYI,
• 4:24
  I'll be forty-nine in a month and a
• 4:26
  half, two months, whatever it is.
• 4:28
  But you look...
• 4:30
  I feel seventeen if you really want to
• 4:32
  know the truth about it.
• 4:33
  So my wife would say I act twelve
• 4:35
  if you really want to get down to
• 4:38
  brass tacks.
• 4:40
  But anyway,
• 4:40
  they have already got an Airbnb.
• 4:44
  He says it's three bedroom.
• 4:46
  Come on.
• 4:47
  He said, just get here.
• 4:49
  He said, you'll be doing me a favor.
• 4:50
  And I was like,
• 4:51
  this is a golden opportunity.
• 4:53
  I've wanted to do fitness at the coast.
• 4:54
  I missed that.
• 4:57
  Thanks, Mike.
• 4:59
  Mike says,
• 5:00
  don't look a day over forty eight.
• 5:03
  I've been wanting to do fitness to the
• 5:05
  coast and just have it, you know,
• 5:07
  sign up for the qualifiers for whatever
• 5:08
  reason.
• 5:09
  They're usually they happen usually right
• 5:10
  when I'm training for legends and whatever
• 5:13
  else.
• 5:14
  So I haven't had an opportunity to and
• 5:16
  this kind of fell in my lap.
• 5:18
  So, yeah,
• 5:19
  I'm going over there competing with
• 5:22
  Anastasia Alexander as my teammate.
• 5:25
  And we're going to be on the floor
• 5:28
  Saturday and Sunday.
• 5:29
  cool hopefully they stream it again this
• 5:31
  year we can get uh some peeks at
• 5:34
  you ortega is going to be there i'll
• 5:36
  see you there take them uh larry mentally
• 5:41
  i'm twenty but i move like i'm ninety
• 5:43
  this dude again larry stop talking about
• 5:46
  my friends like that it's not me
• 5:51
  Uh, Sten says physical age, not mental.
• 5:53
  Um, and Lito, I feel at seventeen too,
• 5:56
  but my joints say otherwise.
• 5:57
  See, I would,
• 6:00
  when I met Lito last year at the
• 6:01
  Masters Games,
• 6:02
  I would not have said she was a
• 6:04
  Masters athlete.
• 6:05
  If I would have just walked up to
• 6:06
  her on the street,
• 6:07
  no way would I have said she's a
• 6:09
  Masters athlete.
• 6:11
  No, I can believe that.
• 6:12
  Just from seeing her videos and the
• 6:14
  content that she posts and whatnot,
• 6:15
  the shock of red hair, first of all,
• 6:18
  is probably your first indication that
• 6:20
  there's no possible way this chick's a
• 6:21
  Masters athlete.
• 6:23
  But then in everything I've seen,
• 6:25
  she does not come across as being,
• 6:28
  and don't take this the wrong way, Alito,
• 6:31
  as being as old as she is.
• 6:33
  The other thing it shows is like CrossFit
• 6:35
  is the age-defying drug.
• 6:37
  It's amazing how it works.
• 6:39
  Isn't it?
• 6:39
  Like you get healthy and you do all
• 6:41
  the things you're supposed to do and you
• 6:43
  look younger than you are.
• 6:45
  look it feel it move like it i
• 6:48
  tell people all the time i told my
• 6:49
  class this morning um as we were warming
• 6:52
  up i was we had a brand new
• 6:54
  girl who is three weeks in and like
• 6:59
  we do air squats if you're in my
• 7:00
  warm-up you're doing air squats at some
• 7:01
  point and i said if you want to
• 7:03
  get a solid flex on somebody at the
• 7:05
  grocery store and you got to get something
• 7:06
  off the bottom shelf drop into a squat
• 7:09
  And just sit there for a second because
• 7:11
  people will look at you like you are
• 7:13
  an exotic animal that they have never seen
• 7:15
  before.
• 7:16
  They don't understand how you can do it.
• 7:17
  Only babies can do that.
• 7:19
  No, it's not how it works.
• 7:22
  CrossFit is the fountain of youth.
• 7:24
  And Vicky says, Lito,
• 7:25
  you are one of my goals, girl.
• 7:29
  Lito's fit, man.
• 7:30
  Really fit.
• 7:32
  Come on, Shannon.
• 7:33
  Shannon does not look her age.
• 7:37
  I was told I look like someone's grandma
• 7:39
  on the floor by a photographer.
• 7:42
  Yeah.
• 7:42
  And then you did things that no,
• 7:43
  but none of them could actually do.
• 7:45
  Correct.
• 7:47
  Correct.
• 7:50
  Says former CrossFit Games champion
• 7:51
  Shannon Bones.
• 7:57
  Mike DeVito,
• 7:57
  I show grocery store dominance by going
• 7:59
  into the fifteen items or less,
• 8:01
  like with thirty items.
• 8:03
  No, just walk in there like this.
• 8:05
  What are you going to do about it?
• 8:07
  What are you going to do?
• 8:10
  I'm ringing all these up.
• 8:14
  All of us are probably younger than a
• 8:15
  twenty-year-old just sitting on the couch.
• 8:18
  That's a fact, Fredo.
• 8:21
  At the grocery store,
• 8:21
  I have to step on the bottom shelf
• 8:23
  to reach the top shelf.
• 8:24
  That'll get you looks, too.
• 8:25
  Hey, Meredith.
• 8:27
  Same.
• 8:27
  But you can do it.
• 8:29
  Yeah.
• 8:30
  But you can do it.
• 8:31
  Yeah.
• 8:31
  You got enough balance and strength and
• 8:33
  coordination to be able to actually stand
• 8:35
  on that thing and reach up and grab
• 8:36
  whatever you need and then come back down
• 8:38
  off of it.
• 8:38
  A hundred percent.
• 8:41
  Chad and Newfie,
• 8:41
  I always say I'm still seventeen.
• 8:43
  My whoop says twenty-eight.
• 8:45
  Actual age is thirty-eight.
• 8:46
  See?
• 8:48
  Fountain of youth.
• 8:49
  Fountain of youth.
• 8:52
  My fitness age on my Garmin refuses to
• 8:54
  get below forty five and a half because
• 8:57
  it still reads BMI instead of actual like
• 9:00
  body fat percentage.
• 9:02
  And so like my BMI is like thirty
• 9:04
  because I weigh one hundred eighty five
• 9:05
  pounds and I'm five foot six.
• 9:06
  So it's like you could get down to
• 9:08
  like thirty something.
• 9:11
  But apparently my watch thinks I'm fat,
• 9:13
  which is fucking hilarious.
• 9:17
  This is what someone told me when I
• 9:19
  first started CrossFit.
• 9:21
  When Arnold Schwarzenegger won Mr.
• 9:22
  Universe,
• 9:25
  the ultimate physique competition in the
• 9:28
  world, at the time he won Mr. Universe,
• 9:31
  his BMI said he was obese.
• 9:33
  Yeah, a hundred percent.
• 9:36
  such a thing why it's taken us all
• 9:41
  this long to flip the food pyramid maybe
• 9:43
  we can flip the freaking bmi calculation
• 9:46
  as well just give i'm in the news
• 9:49
  it's it's useless a dude literally made it
• 9:52
  up like i forget it was the seventies
• 9:54
  or the eighties or something like that but
• 9:55
  like he just kind of made up some
• 9:56
  calculations and then we everybody just
• 9:58
  rolled with it all righty uh larry says
• 10:02
  if his bmi gets down to thirty he
• 10:04
  might not wear a shirt anymore
• 10:08
  If mine gets down to thirty,
• 10:09
  I am never wearing a shirt.
• 10:11
  I will go into the twenty items or
• 10:13
  less with thirty going.
• 10:15
  All right.
• 10:21
  So yesterday I caught up on the Rich
• 10:23
  Froning podcast.
• 10:24
  Okay.
• 10:26
  And I'm going to preface this with Rich
• 10:32
  is my friend.
• 10:34
  favorite male athlete of all time.
• 10:36
  Absolutely.
• 10:37
  I've said that a million times on the
• 10:38
  show.
• 10:39
  I think he is the greatest athlete to
• 10:41
  ever come through CrossFit.
• 10:43
  And regardless of the dominance of Matt
• 10:46
  Frazier,
• 10:46
  I think Rich would have done whatever it
• 10:48
  took to compete against Matt in the time
• 10:51
  that they were together.
• 10:52
  Right?
• 10:53
  Absolutely.
• 10:54
  But this whole be, and I know,
• 10:57
  I know I'm going to,
• 10:58
  I know some of this is clickbait to
• 10:59
  get people to click on their stuff, but,
• 11:02
  However, in the middle of the podcast,
• 11:04
  they talked about why people aren't
• 11:07
  signing up for the Mayhem Classic.
• 11:09
  Why would you not?
• 11:10
  Why would you not?
• 11:12
  And then Scott Vandersloot is saying,
• 11:15
  if I am an elite athlete who is
• 11:18
  a top ten games athlete,
• 11:20
  I would want to go up against the
• 11:21
  best in the world.
• 11:22
  And I would want to come to...
• 11:25
  And then they talked about the good old
• 11:27
  days of the Central East where Rich had
• 11:29
  to go up against the Marcus Hendrens and
• 11:31
  the Dan Bailey's and the Scott Pan chicks
• 11:33
  and all of those people all in the
• 11:35
  same regional.
• 11:36
  Right.
• 11:38
  Apples to oranges, buddy.
• 11:40
  Back then you had no choice.
• 11:41
  Wherever you lived, you had to compete.
• 11:45
  Now you have a choice.
• 11:46
  It's the way the season is structured.
• 11:48
  Two,
• 11:50
  I'm glad that you love your event so
• 11:53
  much that you think it is the only
• 11:56
  option for people.
• 11:57
  But I love Wilson Park and Syndicate Crown
• 12:01
  has been a very well-run event for several
• 12:03
  years.
• 12:06
  Why do you think everybody thinks yours is
• 12:08
  the premier event and everything else is
• 12:11
  like step down?
• 12:14
  And I guess when you're creating it,
• 12:15
  you need to think about that.
• 12:17
  You need to think that that is the
• 12:18
  case.
• 12:20
  But the fact of the matter is Wilson's
• 12:21
  been doing this a long time.
• 12:24
  And he's really damn good at it.
• 12:28
  Right?
• 12:30
  The other thing,
• 12:31
  people don't live all on the East Coast.
• 12:36
  Some people live in Europe.
• 12:38
  Some people live on the West Coast.
• 12:40
  And there are options much closer and much
• 12:42
  more easy to get to than Cookville,
• 12:45
  Tennessee.
• 12:45
  Right?
• 12:47
  And have the nostalgia factor that are
• 12:50
  people throwing in just by being at
• 12:53
  Delmore, regardless of who's running it.
• 12:56
  People want to go because that's where
• 12:57
  it's at.
• 12:58
  Right.
• 13:01
  There are so many factors to this,
• 13:03
  and I am putting most of this on
• 13:05
  Scott Vandersloot.
• 13:06
  He was the one saying and kind of
• 13:08
  calling people out that if you are an
• 13:12
  elite athlete,
• 13:13
  you should not be afraid of anybody.
• 13:15
  I don't think half the field that said
• 13:18
  no is afraid of anybody.
• 13:20
  I think they just had better options in
• 13:22
  the overall scheme of the season.
• 13:25
  And then you take someone like James
• 13:27
  Sprague who was set on Savan yesterday.
• 13:29
  I'm only doing one semifinal so that I
• 13:32
  can collect the biggest contract I earned
• 13:35
  at WFP.
• 13:37
  So I'm only doing one semifinal and I'm
• 13:40
  confident if I can get my spot in
• 13:42
  that one and I'm making it close at
• 13:44
  NorCal.
• 13:46
  They're spoiled for choice.
• 13:49
  You got Mayhem, Syndicate, Legends,
• 13:54
  NorCal.
• 13:55
  That's just here.
• 13:57
  That is just here in America.
• 14:00
  Not counting French Throwdown, Far East.
• 14:04
  I'm sure I'm forgetting four of them.
• 14:07
  You're spoiled for choice.
• 14:09
  So to say that people are scared to
• 14:11
  go is, you know who's scared to go?
• 14:14
  People who don't sign up for any of
• 14:15
  them.
• 14:16
  People who don't do any of the qualifiers
• 14:18
  for any of them.
• 14:19
  That's who's scared to go.
• 14:20
  Or somebody's scared to go.
• 14:22
  To do a ten K row and go
• 14:23
  to the Far East in the qualifier so
• 14:27
  the competition's low over there.
• 14:29
  I may or may not know somebody who
• 14:31
  signed up and did the ten K row
• 14:33
  and the one rep max that left.
• 14:37
  I mean, cannot confirm nor deny,
• 14:39
  but I may or may not know somebody
• 14:40
  who did that and was just as bad
• 14:44
  as anticipated.
• 14:47
  Who's watching those videos, by the way?
• 14:50
  I have no idea.
• 14:53
  And what are they watching for?
• 14:56
  I do look at mayhem as a premier
• 14:58
  event,
• 14:58
  but people have to look at their chances
• 15:00
  and what's financially beneficial for each
• 15:02
  of their personal situations.
• 15:04
  And it's even more than that, Larry.
• 15:05
  And I look at it as a premier
• 15:06
  event too.
• 15:07
  Like I went to the first ever mayhem
• 15:09
  classic.
• 15:10
  It was a great experience.
• 15:12
  I, I loved every single minute of it,
• 15:15
  but it doesn't mean that syndicate crown
• 15:17
  is not a premier event either.
• 15:19
  Correct.
• 15:20
  Right.
• 15:20
  You're not the only show in town that,
• 15:25
  And flying into Knoxville, still tough,
• 15:28
  is still easier than flying into
• 15:29
  Cookville.
• 15:32
  Because you can't.
• 15:33
  Because you can't.
• 15:35
  Yeah.
• 15:37
  Unless you're hopping a crop duster into a
• 15:39
  field, you're not flying into Cookville.
• 15:43
  You're renting a helicopter to drop you
• 15:47
  off at Cookville High or whatever
• 15:51
  community college they got laying around
• 15:53
  over there.
• 15:54
  That's about the extent of it.
• 15:56
  Oh, that's hilarious, dude.
• 15:58
  Free to three to five hour travel versus
• 16:00
  a twenty hour plus one.
• 16:02
  Most would choose the one closer to you.
• 16:05
  Yes.
• 16:07
  Yes.
• 16:07
  One hundred percent.
• 16:10
  Why would you not?
• 16:13
  It doesn't matter where you go.
• 16:14
  If you qualify high enough,
• 16:16
  you finish high enough at whatever
• 16:17
  competition you go to,
• 16:18
  you are still going to make the games.
• 16:22
  So why would you not take the one
• 16:23
  you either think you have, A,
• 16:24
  the best shot at, B,
• 16:26
  is the closest slash most convenient to
• 16:28
  your house, to where you live,
• 16:30
  to where you stay, to where you train,
• 16:32
  to where you're going to be at that
• 16:33
  time of the year,
• 16:34
  whatever that looks like.
• 16:36
  Why would you not?
• 16:37
  The outcome is going to be the same.
• 16:39
  The field might be a little bit different.
• 16:41
  They're going to be different at all of
• 16:42
  them.
• 16:43
  Wilson's is going to be the most,
• 16:45
  I would say,
• 16:45
  the most exclusive because if you didn't
• 16:48
  sign up for the Open,
• 16:48
  if you're not actually in it or if
• 16:50
  you're already qualified,
• 16:50
  you don't get to go.
• 16:53
  which is the only one,
• 16:56
  as far as I know,
• 16:56
  the only person that's doing that,
• 16:58
  and that's the only one that's making any
• 16:59
  sense out of it.
• 17:03
  Anna Shoup says, I love the Sneaker Crown.
• 17:05
  This will be my third year going.
• 17:07
  Sneaker Crown is awesome,
• 17:08
  and they do such a good job running
• 17:10
  the event.
• 17:12
  Vicky says,
• 17:12
  I didn't get that same vibe as you
• 17:13
  did.
• 17:14
  Maybe I'm reading too little into it.
• 17:16
  Well, see, Vicky,
• 17:17
  this is where we're just a little bit
• 17:18
  different.
• 17:20
  And again, much love, Vicki.
• 17:21
  We talked yesterday.
• 17:23
  Love that she has these comments, right?
• 17:26
  I'm doing a talk show every single day
• 17:29
  where I need to come up with topics.
• 17:33
  So when I'm listening,
• 17:35
  I'm listening for these small things for
• 17:37
  us to be able to discuss.
• 17:40
  And I really did feel like Scott
• 17:43
  Vandersloot specifically was very,
• 17:46
  very adamant about people ducking
• 17:50
  competition in the current format of the
• 17:54
  CrossFit season.
• 17:55
  I don't think Rory or Rich,
• 17:59
  although sometimes they agreed with things
• 18:01
  he said,
• 18:02
  I don't think that they were as adamant
• 18:07
  as Scott was about competition.
• 18:09
  that specific piece but when he came in
• 18:12
  saying well listen you had to go up
• 18:15
  against the tough and you and you didn't
• 18:16
  complain and you didn't do this and
• 18:18
  nobody's complaining right now also that
• 18:22
  was years ago right and you had to
• 18:25
  go where you lived there was no he
• 18:28
  had no choice you had to go up
• 18:30
  against who you had to go up against
• 18:32
  if i'm jason hopper i can literally go
• 18:35
  wherever i want to go
• 18:38
  Whichever one I want to sign up for,
• 18:40
  it doesn't matter.
• 18:43
  Or any one of those guys.
• 18:45
  Uh,
• 18:45
  Kenneth DeLapp been a member of the show
• 18:47
  for twenty months.
• 18:49
  That's almost two years.
• 18:50
  Two straight years.
• 18:52
  The original lunch show.
• 18:55
  You got it, man.
• 18:56
  And Kenneth's been with us for a long,
• 18:58
  long time.
• 19:00
  He is the man.
• 19:02
  Absolutely.
• 19:06
  Jenny says it still should be that way.
• 19:08
  I hope they bring back regionals for that
• 19:09
  reason.
• 19:12
  I want them to bring back regionals,
• 19:14
  but I don't.
• 19:14
  It's not because of the competition.
• 19:16
  It's because that it brings the
• 19:18
  competition close to the affiliates where
• 19:21
  the people are from.
• 19:22
  And then the affiliate support is much
• 19:24
  bigger than what we have currently with
• 19:27
  semifinals.
• 19:28
  That's my main reason for wanting
• 19:30
  regionals back again.
• 19:32
  I would say that plus standardized
• 19:35
  programming.
• 19:40
  God, I hate standardized programming.
• 19:42
  But anyway, I get it.
• 19:43
  I get it.
• 19:43
  That's a show for another day,
• 19:45
  maybe later this week.
• 19:48
  Tristan,
• 19:49
  the people they want to go are ducking
• 19:51
  because they have so many options and the
• 19:53
  people who would go aren't invited or
• 19:55
  won't qualify for half the semis this
• 19:57
  season.
• 20:01
  Coach T speaking facts.
• 20:07
  And what the cowboy said.
• 20:11
  Cowboy.
• 20:17
  This is something we talked about
• 20:19
  yesterday about Pat Vellner having an
• 20:22
  ablation done yesterday,
• 20:24
  and it was on his story.
• 20:26
  He actually came out on Instagram and
• 20:29
  explained what the process was.
• 20:32
  He had an atrial flutter, not full AFib.
• 20:35
  It's a different rhythm than an AFib,
• 20:38
  but it was happening during competitions.
• 20:41
  and putting him out of breath.
• 20:43
  And so him and his wife had agreed
• 20:45
  once the twenty five season was done,
• 20:48
  they would look to get the ablation to
• 20:50
  get that fixed so that the twenty six
• 20:53
  season is OK.
• 20:55
  He also stated in that Instagram video
• 20:57
  that it's about a two week recovery time
• 21:01
  before he can start ramping up the
• 21:03
  workouts again.
• 21:05
  uh so right now he's just resting um
• 21:08
  and that was i saw that maybe an
• 21:10
  hour ago on instagram um but atrial
• 21:13
  flutter not atrial fib fibrillation
• 21:17
  fibrillation easy for you to say yeah um
• 21:23
  so um uh regionals were the best in
• 21:30
  my opinion i i think they brought a
• 21:32
  lot it
• 21:34
  They're the best for the fans for sure.
• 21:37
  Yeah.
• 21:38
  It's figuring out the monetary piece of
• 21:40
  it.
• 21:42
  And I'm sure there are some brains that
• 21:47
  can figure out some ways to save on
• 21:49
  the monetary piece.
• 21:51
  Because if you're getting more affiliates
• 21:53
  to show up and support the athletes,
• 21:56
  you're getting more gate receipts.
• 21:58
  So there's got to be a way.
• 22:01
  I'm in the Central or Central East or
• 22:03
  whatever it was,
• 22:05
  whichever version we were doing.
• 22:06
  Nashville was sold out every time we went.
• 22:09
  Oh, I bet.
• 22:10
  Central East was sold out in Cincinnati or
• 22:13
  Columbus every time we went.
• 22:16
  So the gate receipts would be higher.
• 22:18
  The problem we had at that time is
• 22:19
  some of the regionals weren't as strong
• 22:22
  and they did not get the attendance like
• 22:24
  California and Central got during those
• 22:27
  times.
• 22:29
  Southeast region.
• 22:30
  You can say it.
• 22:33
  It's fine.
• 22:34
  Shanna says just say AFib.
• 22:35
  Yeah.
• 22:37
  Sometimes I like to challenge,
• 22:38
  and then I realize halfway into it,
• 22:39
  I'm like, it wasn't worth it.
• 22:42
  Maybe I should not.
• 22:46
  Ortega says, no one is ducking.
• 22:47
  It's strategic.
• 22:48
  What's the best route to qualify for the
• 22:50
  games?
• 22:53
  Yeah.
• 22:54
  Vicky's going to make Corey a combo hat,
• 22:56
  half baseball, half cowboy hat.
• 23:00
  I'd rather her go with the original thing
• 23:02
  she read, half and then a third.
• 23:03
  I'd like to see how she's going to
• 23:04
  make that work.
• 23:08
  Math is hard.
• 23:09
  Math is hard.
• 23:12
  Cowboy in the back or front?
• 23:14
  Make it reversible so he can go either
• 23:16
  way.
• 23:16
  Yeah,
• 23:17
  just going to put one side and then
• 23:18
  one side.
• 23:21
  Go down the middle.
• 23:22
  Yeah, absolutely.
• 23:24
  Split it right down.
• 23:27
  Okay.
• 23:30
  So anyway,
• 23:31
  that was my line of the why is
• 23:35
  Mayhem getting butthurt over this whole
• 23:37
  thing.
• 23:37
  It was really Scott Vandersloot who was
• 23:39
  really kind of attacking the athletes for
• 23:41
  it.
• 23:41
  They have a great lineup at Mayhem,
• 23:44
  regardless of everything.
• 23:46
  They put together a really good lineup.
• 23:47
  It's going to be fun to watch.
• 23:49
  I'm sure they're going to put together a
• 23:50
  great show.
• 23:51
  So yeah, there's all that.
• 23:56
  um yesterday we were going to talk about
• 23:58
  and we ran out of time and that
• 24:00
  is should crossfit have an all-star or pro
• 24:04
  bowl type game at the end of the
• 24:06
  season and i and i say this because
• 24:09
  uh the nfl is getting attacked right now
• 24:11
  the pro bowl flag football game happened
• 24:13
  last night
• 24:14
  Really atrocious to watch,
• 24:16
  really hard to watch.
• 24:18
  I liked it better when they did like
• 24:20
  skills competitions instead of an actual
• 24:23
  game of any kind of type where like
• 24:25
  quarterback had to hit moving targets.
• 24:27
  And they even had a center thing where
• 24:30
  you had to like snap the ball through
• 24:32
  holes, right?
• 24:33
  And you got points and they did a
• 24:36
  tug of war.
• 24:36
  Like that stuff was more fun to me
• 24:38
  than like actually playing the game.
• 24:40
  i saw a highlight this morning of joe
• 24:44
  burrow and them like out there and then
• 24:48
  uh oh who was it anyway he caught
• 24:53
  an interception and ran it back and like
• 24:55
  i didn't realize what i was looking at
• 24:57
  until just now when you said that they
• 24:59
  played a flag football game that that's
• 25:02
  what it actually was and i'm like it
• 25:05
  looked like they were goofing around and
• 25:08
  like playing a pickup game
• 25:11
  That's what it looked like from the
• 25:12
  highlight that I saw.
• 25:13
  I would never have known that's what that
• 25:15
  actually was.
• 25:19
  That's wild.
• 25:22
  Vicky said,
• 25:23
  typing without glasses on is hard.
• 25:25
  Yeah.
• 25:25
  After sinus surgery,
• 25:26
  I couldn't wear glasses for a couple of
• 25:28
  days.
• 25:28
  Texting was nearly impossible.
• 25:34
  As far as CrossFit having one, dude,
• 25:36
  what John George says right there is one
• 25:39
  hundred percent.
• 25:40
  I want to see CrossFit athlete doing a
• 25:42
  workout for fun.
• 25:43
  Isn't that the theme of was that
• 25:45
  California has gone for?
• 25:47
  Yeah.
• 25:51
  Even even regular water pollution.
• 25:54
  Like not even SoCal dude,
• 25:55
  like they're out there and they're
• 25:57
  competing,
• 25:58
  but it's for them to compete and have
• 26:01
  fun and maybe win, you know,
• 26:02
  a little bit of prize money or whatever
• 26:04
  the case may be.
• 26:06
  They're not doing the wild,
• 26:08
  crazy shit that they would normally do to
• 26:11
  try to win workouts.
• 26:12
  Right.
• 26:12
  They're not Matt Fraser diving over the,
• 26:16
  like hitting his chest piece and falling
• 26:17
  three feet off the concrete and
• 26:20
  to get second place in the uh what
• 26:24
  was it former's nightmare whatever
• 26:26
  whatever it was called right yeah oh
• 26:28
  strongman's fear excuse me strongman's
• 26:30
  fear he didn't even win that workout but
• 26:33
  he was trying to get those points so
• 26:34
  bad and beat um wachowski wachowski
• 26:39
  wachowski so bad mike wazowski's a whole
• 26:41
  different person has two eyes mike one
• 26:46
  mike one yeah um
• 26:49
  you don't get that if they're just out
• 26:51
  there doing it front.
• 26:53
  I mean, Ken Walter says no,
• 26:57
  because it's an individual sport.
• 26:59
  So CrossFit pro bowl game wouldn't be any
• 27:00
  different than any other competition.
• 27:02
  However,
• 27:03
  seventies ABC wide world of sports
• 27:04
  superstars would be great.
• 27:06
  Yes.
• 27:07
  I think that'd be cool.
• 27:09
  Or what the lab said right there and
• 27:11
  a celebrity all-star game,
• 27:13
  make them play softball.
• 27:16
  Yeah.
• 27:17
  Kalipa would be last pick.
• 27:19
  hundred percent hundred percent put them
• 27:23
  make them play softball make them do
• 27:26
  something that's actually athletic and see
• 27:28
  who can and who can't host some
• 27:30
  personalities or other sports athletes at
• 27:32
  the ranch the problem with that is you
• 27:37
  have to get the participation of the other
• 27:38
  athletes right do like uh remember mtv
• 27:42
  used to do rock and jock
• 27:45
  But here we get out there, right?
• 27:50
  Something along those lines,
• 27:51
  but you got CrossFit athletes and an
• 27:53
  actual athletes, right?
• 27:55
  So you got Tyson Beijing is on a
• 27:57
  team with with Justin Medeiros.
• 28:01
  And they have to do something athletic.
• 28:04
  Right?
• 28:05
  Yeah,
• 28:06
  I know that Justin can actually throw a
• 28:08
  baseball,
• 28:09
  ten feet and hit and hit somebody in
• 28:11
  the glove.
• 28:12
  We know Tyson can.
• 28:15
  Here's my dilemma with that.
• 28:17
  CrossFit seems to get stuck in a rut
• 28:19
  when they have an athlete in another sport
• 28:23
  that loves CrossFit.
• 28:25
  And I love Tyson Bajan.
• 28:27
  I am the biggest Chicago Bears fan you
• 28:29
  will ever meet.
• 28:31
  I watch everything that dude is on.
• 28:33
  I want more than...
• 28:39
  I want more than just Tyson involved,
• 28:41
  right?
• 28:41
  I want other.
• 28:42
  That's what I'm saying.
• 28:43
  Like you'd have to,
• 28:44
  you'd have to go form it out and
• 28:46
  figure out who's doing CrossFit and who
• 28:48
  isn't, you know,
• 28:49
  in the wide world of sports.
• 28:51
  Cause I'm sure there's a ton of people
• 28:54
  that are still doing it,
• 28:55
  but be able to get them together and
• 28:57
  get them in the same place and do
• 28:59
  something along those lines.
• 29:00
  That would be fun to watch.
• 29:03
  Then you get to see them doing stuff
• 29:04
  that they don't normally do.
• 29:07
  There's that event over in the UK.
• 29:08
  I don't think they did it this year,
• 29:10
  but they did it the past two years.
• 29:12
  And one of the things was there was
• 29:14
  like an American Ninja Warrior course.
• 29:17
  Watching the CrossFitters attempt the
• 29:19
  Ninja course was fun for me to watch.
• 29:22
  If you added pieces like that to something
• 29:25
  where you brought them together,
• 29:26
  that would be really cool to me.
• 29:29
  The more I was thinking about it last
• 29:30
  night, I thought maybe we already have...
• 29:34
  Yeah, Patrick Clark said Fit Fest.
• 29:36
  That's what it was.
• 29:39
  Maybe we already have our all-star game.
• 29:42
  And initially you think, well,
• 29:44
  Waterpalooza, SoCal, right?
• 29:45
  You're bringing people North America
• 29:48
  versus the world.
• 29:49
  It's kind of this big thing.
• 29:50
  And that could be it, kind of.
• 29:52
  But I think Rogue is it too.
• 29:55
  Rogue essentially is taking the best
• 29:58
  athletes from that season and
• 30:01
  I know their new formula goes back a
• 30:03
  few years.
• 30:04
  Right.
• 30:05
  If they went back to the old way
• 30:07
  of basically taking the top fifteen from
• 30:10
  the games and moved in and had the
• 30:15
  Invitational,
• 30:16
  that essentially becomes your all-star
• 30:17
  game.
• 30:18
  It's the best of the best with all
• 30:21
  of their expenses covered,
• 30:23
  coming to have fun,
• 30:25
  but there's serious money on the line.
• 30:27
  Like,
• 30:28
  you're not getting half-assed effort at
• 30:30
  Rogue.
• 30:30
  No.
• 30:32
  But you're also getting the best of the
• 30:34
  best, getting their expenses covered.
• 30:36
  It's like a reward for them for making
• 30:39
  it there.
• 30:40
  And because their rogue programming is so
• 30:42
  specialized,
• 30:44
  you're not seeing people do stuff like
• 30:46
  they would normally do.
• 30:47
  That handle with the weight on it,
• 30:50
  they had to move up the stairs this
• 30:53
  year.
• 30:55
  Like that's not a games event type thing
• 30:57
  that most love log is not a game,
• 30:59
  not necessarily.
• 31:00
  They have had it at the games,
• 31:01
  but generally speaking,
• 31:02
  that's a rogue thing, right?
• 31:07
  Alito says, I mean, I might be biased,
• 31:09
  but if you want to test athleticism,
• 31:10
  it shouldn't be something that only
• 31:11
  Americans can do.
• 31:12
  American Ninja Warrior is just the
• 31:14
  American version of it.
• 31:15
  It is actually not an American thing.
• 31:17
  It is a an Asian Japanese thing.
• 31:20
  I believe it came out of Japan and
• 31:22
  it is spread around the world.
• 31:24
  It's an obstacle course race that is
• 31:27
  worldwide.
• 31:28
  There just is an American version that's
• 31:30
  televised called American Ninja Warrior.
• 31:33
  Yeah.
• 31:33
  Um,
• 31:34
  but that it would actually was born out
• 31:36
  of Japan and has spread around the world.
• 31:39
  Uh,
• 31:41
  she was referring to the football thing.
• 31:42
  Yeah.
• 31:43
  I don't,
• 31:43
  the football is not an example to use
• 31:45
  in this.
• 31:45
  It was terrible.
• 31:47
  Um, but no, I would, I,
• 31:54
  especially like an obstacle course, right?
• 31:55
  Like that,
• 31:55
  where it's not just how fit you are,
• 31:58
  where you have to have all the, um,
• 32:01
  guess it is kind of how fit you
• 32:02
  are because it's balanced coordination
• 32:03
  speed strength agility like it's all of it
• 32:06
  put together at once and to see if
• 32:08
  you can catch these things and then swing
• 32:10
  from one thing to another one and you
• 32:12
  know uh the salmon ladder and just all
• 32:15
  those why that stuff is wild to watch
• 32:18
  dude absolutely and then some of the
• 32:21
  bigger bodies
• 32:23
  right the jason hoppers and whatnot i
• 32:26
  would love to see hopper and roll through
• 32:29
  the american ninja course and just just to
• 32:30
  see he might be fantastic at it i
• 32:33
  have absolutely no idea but it would be
• 32:34
  fun to watch well what was fun is
• 32:36
  um so when fit fest did that last
• 32:39
  year or last year i think it was
• 32:41
  I think Patrick was actually the one
• 32:42
  filming it.
• 32:43
  He filmed them trying it.
• 32:44
  And you could see them adapting as they
• 32:47
  were going through it.
• 32:48
  The first time through,
• 32:49
  they weren't doing well.
• 32:51
  Second time through, all of a sudden, oh,
• 32:52
  they made it a little bit further.
• 32:54
  Third time through, oh,
• 32:54
  now we're starting to get it.
• 32:56
  And it was really fun watching those with
• 32:59
  high athleticism figure it out faster as
• 33:03
  they're going through it repeatedly.
• 33:06
  Yeah.
• 33:08
  And so that would be fun.
• 33:09
  And it would be a competition that would
• 33:11
  favor the smaller athlete that their grip
• 33:16
  strength would hold up more because
• 33:18
  they're not supporting two hundred and
• 33:20
  thirty pounds on a bar.
• 33:24
  Dangling from one arm trying to swing to
• 33:27
  the next one.
• 33:27
  Yeah.
• 33:30
  Yeah,
• 33:30
  so I think there could be things that
• 33:33
  would make that a lot of fun.
• 33:34
  I think you could add something like that
• 33:36
  to like Guadalupalooza SoCal,
• 33:38
  which is like an adaptable athletic type
• 33:41
  thing as one of the events that would
• 33:44
  make it fun.
• 33:46
  I just think that like SoCal has to
• 33:48
  like get it refined down a little bit
• 33:50
  more.
• 33:51
  They've only done it two years.
• 33:52
  Maybe give them a little bit more time
• 33:54
  to get it refined and maybe we will
• 33:57
  have something there.
• 33:59
  I think the only thing that is my
• 34:01
  biggest drawback with SoCal is in the past
• 34:03
  two years that it's been around,
• 34:05
  it's been so sponsor dependent.
• 34:07
  Yeah.
• 34:09
  And maybe,
• 34:10
  and I don't think their tier is sponsoring
• 34:12
  it this year.
• 34:13
  So maybe it won't be a sponsor dependent
• 34:15
  moving into the future.
• 34:17
  Love it.
• 34:20
  Oh yeah.
• 34:25
  Amanda Fillers,
• 34:26
  we found a place with an obstacle course
• 34:27
  in twenty seventeen and got to go practice
• 34:30
  there beforehand.
• 34:31
  Yeah, I see.
• 34:32
  I worked as a as a volunteer to
• 34:34
  twenty seventeen games in the O course and
• 34:36
  it helped with that whole thing.
• 34:39
  That was so much fun to watch.
• 34:42
  So I'll watch the documentary just to
• 34:44
  watch that part of it,
• 34:46
  just to watch watch Matt fall off,
• 34:48
  Pat fall off like right.
• 34:50
  That was the eighteen was when they fell
• 34:53
  off.
• 34:54
  Yeah.
• 34:54
  Eighteen was the where they had.
• 34:55
  Oh, yeah.
• 34:57
  Randy at the end.
• 34:59
  One where it was freezing cold outside.
• 35:01
  Yeah.
• 35:02
  It was snowing.
• 35:04
  Yeah.
• 35:04
  Snowing in August.
• 35:07
  Yeah.
• 35:08
  That one was fun to watch, too,
• 35:09
  with the caving ladder and and all of
• 35:11
  that good stuff.
• 35:12
  But yeah, no,
• 35:13
  both of those were fantastic.
• 35:17
  I think a test of common things that
• 35:18
  CrossFit can be beneficial,
• 35:20
  but just at extreme levels.
• 35:22
  That's why I love events like Strongman
• 35:23
  Sphere from the games.
• 35:24
  That's another twenty seventeen event.
• 35:26
  One of my favorite events ever.
• 35:28
  You know, I've told the story on here.
• 35:30
  My job was to run down,
• 35:31
  grab the yoke and bring it back to
• 35:33
  reset in between every event.
• 35:36
  And that was one of the highlights of
• 35:37
  my CrossFit life, getting to do that.
• 35:41
  And it was we were in the pit.
• 35:44
  Because it was a raised floor back then.
• 35:47
  And watching that when Matt and Brent went
• 35:49
  over the edge, it was freaking awesome.
• 35:55
  And just falling over the side.
• 35:57
  And not even for first place.
• 36:00
  That's what got me.
• 36:01
  That's what that dude was willing to do
• 36:03
  and didn't even get first place.
• 36:05
  That's amazing.
• 36:06
  It's fun to watch.
• 36:08
  And the choose-your-own-adventure style,
• 36:09
  right?
• 36:10
  Because...
• 36:11
  which you got to pick whatever you wanted
• 36:14
  to take first and then they added the
• 36:16
  handstand walk piece for a gymnastics
• 36:20
  aspect to it and that made a huge
• 36:23
  difference like fukowski failed two two
• 36:26
  handstand steps from the fit the one line
• 36:30
  and where he would have won that by
• 36:31
  a landslide and there would have been no
• 36:33
  going over the edge no uh climbing snail
• 36:39
  was a fun one to watch
• 36:41
  And Frida, that's a great point.
• 36:43
  And I think we're all missing that outdoor
• 36:46
  aspect of CrossFit competition.
• 36:51
  We've been inside for a couple years now.
• 36:54
  We've lost all of the strongman's fear,
• 36:57
  obstacle course, snail,
• 37:00
  those types of things.
• 37:01
  It would be awesome to get back to
• 37:04
  a point where we could break those things
• 37:07
  out again.
• 37:08
  The, uh,
• 37:09
  and maybe during an all-star competition
• 37:11
  or at the end of the season.
• 37:14
  Chaos.
• 37:15
  That's a,
• 37:15
  that was another one where you just go
• 37:20
  into your judge tells you to stop.
• 37:22
  I didn't know.
• 37:23
  Yeah.
• 37:27
  All, all good stuff.
• 37:30
  I, the more we're inside,
• 37:32
  the more it's predictable.
• 37:35
  The more it's predictable and the less
• 37:37
  excited, like it comes to,
• 37:38
  it ends up coming down to the race
• 37:40
  and it's less spectacle than it used to
• 37:42
  be.
• 37:43
  And not that the spectacle is more
• 37:44
  important than the race,
• 37:45
  but you have to have a good balance
• 37:47
  of both.
• 37:47
  I think you have to have something that
• 37:49
  is fun to watch and has a good
• 37:51
  race at the same time.
• 37:52
  When you can't tell where anybody's at,
• 37:56
  or you have to rely on the,
• 37:57
  you know,
• 37:58
  the screen or the announcer or something,
• 38:00
  you know, chase or bill,
• 38:01
  whoever to tell you, Hey,
• 38:02
  this person is right here or whatnot.
• 38:05
  You can follow it,
• 38:06
  but it's not as exciting as, holy shit,
• 38:10
  Katrin just made it to the sled,
• 38:13
  the pulling thing, whatever,
• 38:15
  I forget what it's called,
• 38:16
  and she is smoking everybody.
• 38:18
  It's not even close.
• 38:21
  Watching them move across the floor or
• 38:22
  whatnot.
• 38:23
  That kind of stuff was way more fun
• 38:26
  for me.
• 38:26
  The killer cage.
• 38:29
  The fact that that has never came back,
• 38:32
  all those pieces and parts are sitting in
• 38:33
  a warehouse somewhere.
• 38:36
  like that was fun to watch yeah that's
• 38:39
  why rogue owns five buildings in columbus
• 38:41
  hundred percent hundred percent like like
• 38:44
  like pc said they're all sitting around
• 38:46
  somewhere in a warehouse and the fact that
• 38:49
  they've never been used again you know put
• 38:52
  them in a different configuration put
• 38:54
  different stuff in in between and whatnot
• 38:58
  make folks do that uh shanna says you
• 39:01
  should hold the games in the pacific
• 39:02
  northwest and summer mild temps for
• 39:04
  outdoor events
• 39:08
  she's not wrong.
• 39:08
  Uh,
• 39:10
  one reason why rogue is a better viewing
• 39:12
  experience right now,
• 39:14
  especially if they can find a place where
• 39:15
  they go back outside.
• 39:17
  Yeah.
• 39:19
  Um, you know, in, I,
• 39:21
  I was not a fan of the baseball
• 39:23
  seating and structure hill.
• 39:26
  The hill was fun to watch,
• 39:29
  especially in the rain with Chandler doing
• 39:31
  the,
• 39:31
  the butt slide down the arm photo slide.
• 39:38
  Those are the things that then live in
• 39:40
  infamy, right?
• 39:42
  Me and my wife were watching it, right?
• 39:44
  And he goes sliding down the thing and
• 39:46
  she sat up in her seat because she
• 39:48
  was only half paying attention.
• 39:49
  She goes, is he sliding down?
• 39:51
  Yes, he is.
• 39:52
  It's the fastest way down.
• 39:56
  If you've never walked that hill,
• 39:59
  it is steep.
• 40:01
  It is a serious, no joke, steep hill.
• 40:05
  But yeah.
• 40:09
  What else do we got?
• 40:09
  I don't know where we're at with time.
• 40:11
  Okay.
• 40:16
  So I talked about it in the open.
• 40:17
  Lindsey Vonn tore her ACL,
• 40:19
  ruptured her ACL.
• 40:21
  She announced that she is going to try
• 40:24
  to compete at the Olympics next week.
• 40:29
  Downhill skiing with a ruptured ACL.
• 40:32
  How old is she?
• 40:36
  This will be her last Olympics.
• 40:39
  Well,
• 40:39
  it's going to be her last one way
• 40:41
  or another.
• 40:42
  She already has a robotic knee on the
• 40:44
  right side.
• 40:45
  This was her left.
• 40:48
  Do you think that...
• 40:54
  So we had like a text thing with
• 40:56
  Jamie and Carolyn and Lex.
• 40:58
  Do you think that it's even safe for
• 41:01
  her to do that?
• 41:02
  No.
• 41:03
  No.
• 41:05
  How could it be?
• 41:06
  They reach speeds of seventy to eighty
• 41:08
  miles an hour.
• 41:09
  Yeah.
• 41:11
  That's what Mark Phillips says right
• 41:13
  there.
• 41:13
  Yeah.
• 41:14
  I mean, that's insane.
• 41:15
  Mark Phillips.
• 41:16
  I can't imagine how she's going to do
• 41:17
  this.
• 41:20
  So I get so when Bill blew his
• 41:23
  at a killing finals.
• 41:25
  Right.
• 41:25
  And he finished the workout.
• 41:27
  How he did that, I don't know.
• 41:29
  How he did that, I don't know.
• 41:30
  But adrenaline, he was in the process,
• 41:33
  blah, blah, blah, moving still.
• 41:35
  Probably more bouncing on one foot than
• 41:37
  the other one at that point because he
• 41:38
  already had an imbalance,
• 41:40
  according to the dude that he's.
• 41:42
  But this is already done.
• 41:44
  So, like,
• 41:44
  is she going to crutch her way up
• 41:46
  to the – because Bill was on crutches
• 41:47
  for six, eight months, like after surgery,
• 41:50
  whatever it was.
• 41:51
  I saw him a whole lot.
• 41:52
  So if it's blown,
• 41:54
  how are you even going to get on
• 41:55
  skis?
• 41:57
  So apparently I watched a doctor today
• 42:00
  kind of explain it.
• 42:02
  And he thinks that she can do it
• 42:03
  practicing because she's not going to
• 42:06
  reach.
• 42:07
  She's not going to go to that extreme.
• 42:08
  Like you just talked about with Frazier
• 42:11
  and Fikowski finishing the sphere and the
• 42:13
  effort they put at the end.
• 42:14
  When you're practicing,
• 42:15
  you're not putting that much effort in.
• 42:17
  So the turns aren't as tight.
• 42:19
  The speed isn't as great.
• 42:21
  So it's going to feel okay to,
• 42:24
  for a minute like all braced up but
• 42:27
  the problem is you're going to get into
• 42:28
  a trouble spot and you're going to try
• 42:31
  to engage the stuff that you've been
• 42:33
  trained to engage and it's not going to
• 42:36
  be there yeah and then you fall down
• 42:38
  the mountain instead of slide down it dude
• 42:43
  i don't um where shauna shanna a lot
• 42:48
  lots of splinting of the knee for support
• 42:50
  i guess
• 42:52
  How much limiting,
• 42:53
  what limiting factor is that going to be?
• 42:59
  So watching this video,
• 43:00
  the ACL is what keeps your tibia,
• 43:05
  the bottom bone, from the top bone,
• 43:08
  from going out in front of it.
• 43:10
  The tibia from going out.
• 43:11
  And so when it tears,
• 43:13
  it goes out in front and then snaps
• 43:15
  back.
• 43:16
  but then the, the, the ligament is gone.
• 43:19
  Yeah.
• 43:19
  Right.
• 43:20
  So now she doesn't have that kind of
• 43:22
  go preventing it from going out forward.
• 43:26
  And it's also at an angle.
• 43:28
  So it'll actually spiral without the
• 43:31
  support is the way the,
• 43:32
  this doctor explained it.
• 43:34
  And when,
• 43:35
  if that knee becomes the outside knee that
• 43:37
  she has to push on to turn and
• 43:40
  And she has to engage that and it's
• 43:41
  not there.
• 43:43
  It's going to be,
• 43:45
  it could be dangerous at seventy miles an
• 43:47
  hour.
• 43:48
  It could be dangerous at seven miles an
• 43:50
  hour.
• 43:53
  Much less seventy miles an hour sliding
• 43:55
  down the side of a mountain.
• 43:57
  That just sounds like a terrible idea.
• 43:59
  And I get it.
• 43:59
  Like I see what Terry says.
• 44:01
  Oh, you know,
• 44:03
  she's not ready to accept that her Olympic
• 44:05
  career is over.
• 44:07
  She's already accomplished all of these
• 44:09
  things.
• 44:12
  Right?
• 44:13
  I would still be looking to want to...
• 44:14
  At forty-one, dude,
• 44:15
  I'm going to tell you from experience,
• 44:16
  and you know as well, she's still young.
• 44:20
  So, like, do you want to...
• 44:23
  You still want to walk?
• 44:24
  You still want to be able to run?
• 44:26
  You still want to stay fit,
• 44:27
  active the rest of your life?
• 44:30
  to to to risk it just for to
• 44:33
  say well i made the i made the
• 44:34
  olympics and i'm going do my event that
• 44:37
  everybody knows me for just so i can
• 44:38
  slide down the side of a mountain and
• 44:40
  maybe make it all the way to the
• 44:42
  bottom without tearing without making it
• 44:44
  worse because you already need surgery
• 44:46
  it's already gone yeah well i know but
• 44:49
  that part's going but then what else is
• 44:51
  going to happen whenever like you said
• 44:53
  whenever she has to
• 44:55
  She just goes into what she normally would
• 44:57
  do to that.
• 44:58
  I,
• 44:59
  my only fear is does she end up
• 45:00
  in a wheelchair at forty five because she
• 45:02
  has nothing left in either knee.
• 45:05
  As that said,
• 45:05
  do CrossFitters appear soft to people like
• 45:08
  that with all of our safety conversations?
• 45:11
  don't know i that's all relative like what
• 45:15
  people think about things um i watched the
• 45:18
  thing on get up this morning where uh
• 45:20
  they were counting down the five guttiest
• 45:22
  performances of all time like people that
• 45:24
  fought through injury and and they
• 45:27
  couldn't even agree on the set and it
• 45:28
  was comical like what somebody thought was
• 45:32
  they brought up michael jordan's flu game
• 45:34
  and one of the athletes was like so
• 45:37
  he fought through the sniffles to play a
• 45:39
  game
• 45:40
  You know,
• 45:40
  she's going down a mountain with no ACL.
• 45:42
  There's a tiny bit of... Yeah.
• 45:46
  Slight difference.
• 45:48
  I think Terry's got it.
• 45:48
  I think she just is not ready to
• 45:50
  accept that her Olympic career is over.
• 45:53
  When we all get to that point where
• 45:54
  we're walking away, it's tough,
• 45:56
  no matter what that sport is or what
• 45:58
  level we reach.
• 45:59
  Walking away says...
• 46:03
  And look,
• 46:03
  I understand that's what she's doing.
• 46:05
  Like she wants to end it on her
• 46:06
  terms, not anybody else's.
• 46:07
  I get that mindset.
• 46:10
  I just don't know if it's all the
• 46:14
  way torn,
• 46:15
  like how much worse are you going to
• 46:16
  make your leg, your hip,
• 46:19
  your knee specifically,
• 46:20
  like anything that's all attached to that
• 46:21
  shit by going compete at the Olympics and
• 46:25
  doing what you do,
• 46:26
  which is ski down a mountain at a
• 46:29
  million miles an hour.
• 46:30
  So, Ken,
• 46:31
  she actually tore it last week after she
• 46:34
  won the World Cup.
• 46:36
  She just had a press conference yesterday
• 46:37
  saying she was still going to compete.
• 46:40
  She was actually airlifted off the
• 46:43
  mountain less than a week ago.
• 46:46
  And that's where they found out she tore,
• 46:48
  she ruptured the ACL.
• 46:55
  Larry Young,
• 46:56
  I know a guy after several ACL surgeries,
• 46:57
  last time he just didn't fix it and
• 47:00
  wore the ACL brace,
• 47:02
  played softball for years at a high level.
• 47:04
  Yeah,
• 47:04
  I think softball and skiing down a
• 47:07
  mountain at seventy miles an hour are a
• 47:09
  little bit different.
• 47:10
  Slightly.
• 47:13
  She also said she's doing this to honor
• 47:14
  her mother who died of ALS to bring
• 47:17
  more awareness to the disease.
• 47:20
  That's admirable.
• 47:21
  I just don't want her to, I like,
• 47:22
  I just hope she isn't like compromised for
• 47:25
  the rest of her life because of it.
• 47:28
  Um, so, uh,
• 47:37
  if you can't run on it,
• 47:38
  you should not ski on it,
• 47:41
  especially not high impact.
• 47:46
  All right.
• 47:47
  One last thing before we go.
• 47:50
  WFP released their rule book for the
• 47:51
  season.
• 47:52
  It's out there for everybody to view.
• 47:55
  The only thing I'm going to say about
• 47:56
  this, and it's going to be super short.
• 47:58
  Last year,
• 47:59
  I was very supportive of the WFP in
• 48:02
  the decision they made with Alex Kazan and
• 48:04
  that they said that they had changed the
• 48:06
  rule and that cannibalism
• 48:09
  Yeah.
• 48:10
  Cannabinoids are,
• 48:11
  were not actually illegal anymore.
• 48:14
  They had changed that.
• 48:15
  However,
• 48:15
  they released the rule book again.
• 48:17
  They are still in there.
• 48:19
  Get your paperwork done, please.
• 48:20
  Like I tried to support you in that
• 48:22
  saying that you can make the decision and
• 48:24
  maybe the paperwork didn't keep up with
• 48:26
  it.
• 48:26
  Don't a year later,
• 48:27
  put it back out with the same damn
• 48:29
  thing.
• 48:30
  Come on.
• 48:32
  I tried to support you on that front.
• 48:34
  I tried,
• 48:36
  but you can't keep doing stuff like this.
• 48:39
  Get a better editor.
• 48:43
  Street drugs.
• 48:54
  I'll miss that.
• 48:58
  Correction coming.
• 49:00
  The Gazan rule.
• 49:06
  Especially after all the flack they got
• 49:07
  over it.
• 49:11
  Yeah, again,
• 49:13
  I don't think it should be illegal.
• 49:14
  I think that marijuana is legal in most
• 49:18
  states now.
• 49:20
  It should be fine.
• 49:21
  It's fine in most pro sports.
• 49:23
  Just get the paperwork right.
• 49:25
  It's not exactly a performance-enhancing
• 49:28
  drug.
• 49:29
  Yeah.
• 49:36
  I mean, come on.
• 49:36
  I mean,
• 49:36
  there are beliefs that it helps with
• 49:38
  recovery.
• 49:39
  Fine.
• 49:40
  So does magnesium.
• 49:41
  Let them have something to recover.
• 49:43
  Yeah.
• 49:43
  So does magnesium.
• 49:45
  So does proper hydration and nutrition.
• 49:47
  And so like,
• 49:48
  so do a lot of things.
• 49:51
  The money you could make at the concession
• 49:53
  selling Doritos and Cheetos.
• 49:54
  Dude, screw that.
• 49:57
  Like it all of a sudden now, um,
• 50:00
  what is it?
• 50:00
  HDR CBD shows up and like,
• 50:03
  they're just selling gummies at their,
• 50:04
  at their booth.
• 50:05
  Good Lord.
• 50:07
  Yeah.
• 50:09
  make a million dollars add the games oh
• 50:12
  yeah no we ran out it'd run out
• 50:14
  in three hours uh last thing before we
• 50:17
  go i saw that you got you tried
• 50:20
  the strawberry lemonade third c uh i did
• 50:23
  yeah i did it's good stuff it's good
• 50:26
  stuff it's a little i will say this
• 50:29
  and third take note it's a little chalkier
• 50:32
  than i expected like it stays in the
• 50:35
  glass but that's that's
• 50:38
  Like I'm sitting there with my, my,
• 50:39
  my thing, mixing it wrong.
• 50:42
  And as I get a little bit leftover
• 50:43
  in the bottom of the glass,
• 50:44
  but all that does is makes me put
• 50:45
  some more water in it, shake it up.
• 50:47
  And then I drink the rest of that
• 50:48
  too, as well.
• 50:49
  Cause I'm not letting any of that stuff
• 50:50
  go to waste.
• 50:52
  I will say this too,
• 50:53
  and this is going to sound ridiculous
• 50:55
  because I'm sure it's the exact same
• 50:56
  formula,
• 50:57
  but I feel like I've been sleeping better
• 50:59
  with the strawberry lemonade than I did
• 51:01
  with the salted caramel chocolate.
• 51:04
  They tell you not to heat it up.
• 51:08
  And I put it in warm milk,
• 51:10
  the other one I did.
• 51:11
  And this, I just make myself a glass,
• 51:12
  like it's a regular glass of strawberry
• 51:14
  lemonade.
• 51:15
  And dude, within an hour,
• 51:17
  I am picking my head up.
• 51:19
  Like, okay, I'm going to bed.
• 51:22

• 51:34
  I don't even know what they are.
• 51:35
  They're top secret.
• 51:38
  So but we'll probably hear something out
• 51:40
  in the next week.
• 51:41
  With that, guys,
• 51:44
  Mike DeVito said if we ban marijuana,
• 51:46
  we need to ban water, melatonin,
• 51:48
  knee braces, et cetera.
• 51:50
  Yeah, melatonin's bad.
• 51:51
  Thirdsy doesn't have that.
• 51:52
  Thirdsy is a much better recovery
• 51:54
  solution.
• 51:55
  It doesn't have that awful melatonin feel.
• 51:58
  There we go.
• 52:00
  Kenneth DeLapp, who's winning,
• 52:01
  twenty six point one.
• 52:05
  I saw Patrick say it was.
• 52:07
  Yeah, Patfield versus Mertens.
• 52:11
  I never bet against Colton in an open
• 52:14
  workout.
• 52:15
  Nope.
• 52:17
  Especially an early one that's probably
• 52:18
  going to have burpees.
• 52:21
  Yeah, I'm not betting against Colton.
• 52:24
  Not for the Open.
• 52:25
  Not happening.
• 52:28
  Deuces from the stable.
• 52:30
  Awesome.
• 52:31
  With that, guys,
• 52:32
  have a great rest of your day.
• 52:34
  We'll be back tomorrow on Lunch with the
• 52:35
  Clydesdale,
• 52:36
  and we've got more to talk about.
• 52:38
  And we'll probably revisit a little bit of
• 52:40
  this.
• 52:41
  With that,
• 52:42
  we'll see everybody next time on Lunch
• 52:44
  with the Clydesdale.
• 52:46
  Bye, guys.
