- 1:26There's no replacement for the true sleep mask.
- 1:29That's. True, Yeah, you probably could
- 1:32see through it if you didn't use a real manta sleep mask.
- 1:36We're going to need you to turn. Turn your head around.
- 1:39Just swivel your chair and then you'll just face backwards.
- 1:43You'll just face backwards the whole time.

- 2:05All right. Have you guys, well, I'm not
- 2:08going to ask you, Tyler, because you didn't recover from Rogue.
- 2:10But John, have you recovered from I think you had the most
- 2:13hours of anybody on on podcasts over the weekend?
- 2:20John sent that message of I need help, I'm dying and I was.
- 2:25I felt so bad because there was literally nothing I could do.
- 2:29No, it's it's cool. I just, I had moments of I'm not
- 2:33going to, I'm going to fall asleep on the podcast and it's
- 2:36OK. Yeah, you went.
- 2:38You went like, I don't know, what was it 8 straight hours
- 2:41sitting there in your metal chair?
- 2:43It doesn't, it doesn't really seem it like it doesn't seem bad
- 2:48when you like say, yeah, I'll jump on Savon's and then but
- 2:51then I was like, hold on. So I'm on Savon's and then spin
- 2:57and then Savon. And it's just never, it's just
- 2:59never stopped. Well, because Savon would go on
- 3:02for a long time and like it wasn't like, oh let's do a quick
- 3:0630 minute recap. It was like, no, let's do an
- 3:07hour and a half show and then go straight into the next event.
- 3:13I don't know who this is so. Travis isn't far off.
- 3:19I, I, yeah, the C4 really took me through.
- 3:21I'm not kidding. It's it's, it's magical.
- 3:24And your computer's struggling tonight, John.
- 3:26Yeah. It's I'm on 2%, I'm on 2%.
- 3:29So are you? Charging.
- 3:31Or it I am actively charging it should get better and better.
- 3:38OK. Will plumber welcome back.
- 3:40John. Cheers with some Oval team.
- 3:43Thank you. Cheers.
- 3:46All right, this is a good one. I don't, I didn't.
- 3:48It's not on the list, but Domit's traps are S tier.
- 3:52Find out. We'll find out what else joins
- 3:54Abigail Domitz traps on the S tier.
- 3:57In the meantime, we're going to go read through some viewer
- 4:00comments from the last week. This is your reminder.
- 4:03Oh, oh, before I get into that, if you've not subscribed, do so
- 4:08now. I was looking at the analytics.
- 4:09I was looking at the analytics of returning viewers.
- 4:15How What percentage Tyler, do you think?
- 4:18Do not subscribe 70. 4. 74% do not subscribe.
- 4:26Yeah, no, that's ridiculous. 42. No, we have.
- 4:34We have loyal viewers, I think. We're yeah, I'm going to say
- 4:38we're 5050. No, no, 75% of you guys
- 4:41subscribe and watch us on a regular.
- 4:43Oh, that's nice. 25% though freeloaders, you're just
- 4:48freeloading. You just drop in whenever you
- 4:50feel like it, but don't hit that subscribe button.
- 4:53So maybe do that now. We could have 12,500
- 4:56subscribers. Right, we could, We could.
- 5:00So go do that now in the meantime.
- 5:02Use the space race to what? What are we on 12,000 now?
- 5:06We're on 10,000. 10,000 yeah, we're almost to 11,000 We're
- 5:09like 700 away. And Pedro's, Pedro's gaining
- 5:15ground. All right, first up, fearless or
- 5:19no? Fat loss, goat, fat loss, goat
- 5:23people. And this is before the Rogue
- 5:25Invitational. Whoa.
- 5:30She is unhappy. She's hungry.
- 5:33Yeah, people are talking about Maderos because Maderos is
- 5:38hyping himself up a lot on the Boys Interrupted podcast.
- 5:42Worth it, I mean wasn't bad hype.
- 5:46No, I'm, I mean, I think it's hyped, well hyped.
- 5:50Yeah, I mean it. Was good to see him as as the
- 5:54Justin. Of Justin of old.
- 5:56We want. It's the Justin we want.
- 5:58Yeah, yeah. So yeah, like that Justin
- 6:02definitely showed he can still compete.
- 6:05Josh Dillonbeck actually go back to Medeiros.
- 6:09Just think, if Adler was still hurt, Medeiros would have won.
- 6:15Well, I mean, then you could just say, just think, if
- 6:18everybody was hurt, then Fabian Herman's would have won.
- 6:23You can't say. That that's a that's a bigger
- 6:25stretch. That's like 14.
- 6:26People have to get hurt. Josh Dillenbeck It really annoys
- 6:32me how y'all Yankees won't say y'all.
- 6:36That's one thing a Southerners got right.
- 6:38The Yankees sound so dumb saying you guys's use guys's.
- 6:44You're all I've heard it all. Love y'all, but y'all need to
- 6:48move down South. Tyler.
- 6:50Don't say you're not a Yankee. You're the one who said it with
- 6:54love. Of course.
- 6:56Y'all show is by far my favorite show in the space.
- 7:01So you're not a S. You're not southern enough,
- 7:04Tyler. OK.
- 7:08Yeah, I don't really know what you just said, man.
- 7:12Say y'all more often and then Josh will be super pumped, you
- 7:15know? What we take y'all all the time?
- 7:17We do. This dude has no idea what he's
- 7:19talking about. Do you know how long he's?
- 7:21Probably 1 of that 25% that don't subscribe.
- 7:24Go into a conversation where you're trying to throw, like
- 7:28where you're trying to like sell something for a couple
- 7:31$1,000,000 or you know, there's $1,000,000 at stake in this
- 7:35conversation. Throw out a y'all.
- 7:38Turns out bankers, finance dudes, they don't love that word
- 7:41so much. You know how many years it took
- 7:42me to coach myself out of saying y'all I'll I'll put you on one
- 7:46for size. Say yuns.
- 7:48And I'm not talking about Pittsburgh Yuns, I'm saying
- 7:51yuns. That's part of the South I bet
- 7:53you don't even know exists. Don't get it.
- 7:54Get out of here with this S bullshit.
- 7:57Yeah, we're very professional around here.
- 7:59It's all this media training that we've done.
- 8:02They told us not to say y'all next one Mike Tyson blowing
- 8:07Amraps. Here's a fun fact.
- 8:13Brian Friend is definitely a more prepared analyst than JY.
- 8:19Oh, I knew this was coming. But JY has a better accuracy
- 8:26rated rated I don't know in his predictions than him.
- 8:31Better accuracy rate in his predictions than Brian Friend.
- 8:36So you prepare less, you do better.
- 8:40It's pretty good. I don't think that's far off
- 8:42from the truth. I, I don't, I don't have much to
- 8:53say to that. I think, I think, I think Brian
- 8:55prepares quite a bit when he's cares about something.
- 8:59I'm not going to talk bad about him, OK?
- 9:03I. Do dude, there's no humility in
- 9:06this. As soon as he does it, it's so
- 9:09gross. Do I want to do this right now?
- 9:14Do I? I think you should do.
- 9:17It I said I wasn't going to interact with him anymore.
- 9:21It's so gross. Like you do a show with you do a
- 9:23show with Hiller now Fuck off. Like just chill out.
- 9:27Like you did the show with Hiller but you don't need to do
- 9:30this self congratulatory post of like look we have the best show
- 9:33ever. Shut the fuck up dude.
- 9:38Like you. Mean in his, in his, in his
- 9:40defense. What like it is probably the
- 9:43best show that he's ever done. You don't think so?
- 9:47Like like. It doesn't rank within the top
- 9:5025 shows we've ever. Done.
- 9:51I, I, I understand. I understand what it's not US
- 9:56versus him. It is.
- 9:58It's not us versus him it. It was, it was a good show.
- 10:02Hiller carried that show. By the way without Hiller they
- 10:05the 1st 6 minutes I could not focus on what Brian was saying
- 10:08and like granted I was trying. That was just you.
- 10:11Keep watching. No, I, I swear to God, I texted
- 10:13Hiller. I was like, dude, I'm, I'm
- 10:14trying to watch this as unbiased as possible.
- 10:18Like I couldn't understand it. Now 20 minutes in, they start to
- 10:22get some camaraderie. It's a little bit better, but
- 10:24Hiller carries that show. It's also obvious where to me
- 10:29Hiller cut because he was like, OK, shut the shut the hell up.
- 10:34Like you're carrying on too much.
- 10:35It's so obvious. It was fine, but like it needs a
- 10:41lot of work. But it did not.
- 10:42It was like, you know, it did not need to congrat a self
- 10:46congratulatory post. I'm sure we'll see more this
- 10:50December. Craig PK5CC.
- 10:54Could WFP go on the same weekend as Copa Sewer and Far East
- 10:59Throwdown as most WFP athletes would not be doing them?
- 11:06Say that again. Should World Fitness projects
- 11:10schedule one of their competitions on May 1st?
- 11:13The 3rd because it's on Copa Sewer and Far East throwdown
- 11:18weekend like. I have to program it somewhere
- 11:21or they're going to have to put it somewhere.
- 11:22There ain't a lot of days so good a week in the city.
- 11:29You're going to lose the Brazilian audience pretty quick,
- 11:31aren't you? They'll follow the year round,
- 11:33it'll be fine. Do you think he goes back to the
- 11:36games I mean? That's a good question.
- 11:42I mean, I think he can. South America region.
- 11:45If he if he had to choose WFP are going back to the games or
- 11:51thing, what do you think he'd choose?
- 11:52Oh, I actually think financially it's better for him to go to
- 11:56WFP, but market wise it's not. And he's all about, you know,
- 12:03influencing I. Don't know, next year it'll be
- 12:06interesting. I will go back to the Brian
- 12:08thing if hopefully we can, I thought.
- 12:10You were. I don't think you want to talk
- 12:13about it, John. He's been stewing now.
- 12:14I, I, I have, I have. That's, that's exactly it,
- 12:19Tyler. Tyler hit the nail on the.
- 12:23Head. Not, not a, not a mean way, not
- 12:30a mean way. I'm interested in just like what
- 12:34the, what the public thinks, you know what I mean, what the, what
- 12:40the chat thinks. We saw what he thinks.
- 12:42He saw all the comments. Not wait here, yeah, but he, he,
- 12:45you know, anybody can pick positive comments out.
- 12:50Just just do, I hope. Here you.
- 12:53Poll what? What is the poll?
- 12:55Is it good or not? Killer with Brian Show good bad.
- 13:00I think most would say good though.
- 13:02But but I think killer is the reason people would say good.
- 13:11I got an idea. I don't think it was a bad show,
- 13:13but I don't think you, I don't, I don't blame Brian for wanting
- 13:18to get as much as you can off of it.
- 13:23Listen, when I came out with the mountain and they did the World
- 13:25Fitness project and it was the most accurate thing anybody's
- 13:28ever had ever. The entire thing was correct one
- 13:31down to 10. Did we not make a post?
- 13:34Did we not make a post and say look how accurate this was?
- 13:39Because I had never been that accurate before.
- 13:41It was it was a crazy thing to happen.
- 13:43I, I don't, I guess it's a pre show versus look at what I've
- 13:47done, but. That's like part of betting
- 13:50culture. It's like if you fucking hit the
- 13:52nail, like hit the hit the ball out of the park, like you, you
- 13:56post that you did that and you're you're an analyst.
- 13:59That's what you do, But you're not like, look at this.
- 14:01I went on this shit like I did this one show.
- 14:04It's not. You know what I mean?
- 14:06For example, like if I was on Hitler's show, I don't think I'm
- 14:08posting it saying it's the best show ever.
- 14:10No. Yeah, yeah, I, I gotcha.
- 14:14I just should Hiller do another event preview show with Brian
- 14:18friend. There you go.
- 14:22And these are our people. I feel like this is fair, like
- 14:26our fan base should be pretty balanced on this.
- 14:32Unless they go to yes and then I'm going to call them all
- 14:33idiots. It's close.
- 14:38There's only one mountain, FICO. Nobody can.
- 14:41Nobody can match it or even try to RIP it off.
- 14:46The freaking boys interrupted, tried, and you saw the
- 14:48catastrophe. That was OK.
- 14:50Nobody can match the mountain. No.
- 14:53All right, last comment. We picked the good with the bad.
- 14:56Jason Zerba. All right, buckle up.
- 14:59It's a long one. It's a good thing you guys don't
- 15:02bet real muddy on Rogue. These preview takes are not
- 15:06aging well. Ha ha.
- 15:09Adler is not even top five material anymore.
- 15:13Allowed himself to be a loser when healthy.
- 15:16Adler is still the best out there.
- 15:20Quote Roman is done. He didn't look done when he was
- 15:22wiping the floor with everyone on that last event and making
- 15:25the podium. Please stop washing Hatfield's
- 15:28balls until he actually wins a comp that matters against top
- 15:32guys. And why is Colton so high?
- 15:35Dude it's fun to root for but he's never going to podium at a
- 15:38major comp against these guys ever.
- 15:41Sprague didn't. Hear that?
- 15:4311th Ha ha. Guy, I would like to assess a
- 15:47couple parts. Can I go bit by bit with it?
- 15:49You may. OK, Adler uninjured is one of
- 15:54the fittest people in the world. I would say pretty.
- 15:58I would say very comfortably top five.
- 16:01You were both high on him. Yeah, he just he.
- 16:05Just based off of my little quick analysis.
- 16:07He he he almost, almost like Chandler, like gets up for
- 16:11Rogue. He always does good at Rogue.
- 16:14Rogue is his thing and like it's hot.
- 16:20He's never done bad at Rogue ever.
- 16:23But like the games he's like done a little bit little bit
- 16:26little bit better, right. And then he was at the top and
- 16:28now he's just kind of he's always one of the better best
- 16:30ones. But Adler, you said, why is he
- 16:34up there? I think it proved itself.
- 16:36He's never not been up there. He's always been top 2 every
- 16:39single rogue he's competed in from the jump.
- 16:43So I don't know how you can say anything bad about us breaking
- 16:47Jeff Adler that high just because he had a bad game.
- 16:51So his back was not 100% the next person.
- 16:55Hatfield, Yeah. I mean, I feel like I've got, I
- 16:59feel like I got off of him. I feel like I tried to get off
- 17:01of him. And he'll be, he'll be predicted
- 17:05and ranked as such until he can show me something different.
- 17:08But as far as a major competition, he won the
- 17:11Mayfield. Mayfield that made him classic
- 17:15in semi finals when all of those guys were there and he beat them
- 17:19all. And you could say programming,
- 17:20whatever, it's a major competition that he beat
- 17:23everybody. OK.
- 17:24And then World Fitness Project, I don't know if you want to call
- 17:27that a major competition or not. He beat them all there too.
- 17:30So those are two major competitions where Austin
- 17:33Hatfield came out on top and was the fittest man at those
- 17:36competitions. And then he got with Hayley
- 17:38Adams and now he's not fit anymore.
- 17:40But we that will be a side. We call it that is a side.
- 17:45I'm I'm sorry, that was a mean. That was a mean.
- 17:47Well, what did he say about Roman?
- 17:48Roman, he said he is done, but look at him wiping the floor
- 17:53with everybody on that last event and making the podium.
- 17:59Roman's not done. Roman.
- 18:00Roman I. Think I said Roman was done.
- 18:03Yeah, yeah. I, I here's the thing.
- 18:05I don't think Roman will win, but at any given year he could
- 18:10podium. Yes.
- 18:13Is that fair? We also did.
- 18:14This we did the we did the rankings before we knew the
- 18:16final event. We didn't know.
- 18:18We didn't know Event 7, right? We didn't know what we thought
- 18:25it was a run. We didn't know for sure. 5 bucks
- 18:29Singapore. I'm not too easy.
- 18:32I'm done with it. I'm not going to.
- 18:35I don't care. All right, give me $10 and I'll
- 18:39do it. We're going to start hyping
- 18:40these out, dude, I, I, I'm, I'm tired.
- 18:44I feel like a freaking. He doesn't know this is.
- 18:48Mule, mule, jockey, you know what I mean?
- 18:51Just you know, I I'm done. I mean that.
- 18:56First off, it's probably the easiest 1 you can do and you
- 19:00know, and you know why. And I'm not even going to say
- 19:02why. You know why, OK, If you know
- 19:05the capital of Djibouti, same same situation.
- 19:10Some people might. Some people might know that one
- 19:12because your booty is like it's. Landing with with two people,
- 19:15yeah. No, no, but I'm I'm not going to
- 19:17do the freaking capital thing anymore unless we got $10.
- 19:20I don't feel like I'm not a monkey that can Just Dance
- 19:23whenever you want. Sick of it?
- 19:27He said Dance Monkey. No, Roman's not done.
- 19:33Colton beat everybody at the Mayhem Classic Two.
- 19:37OK, the only person didn't beat is Hatfield.
- 19:40Don't tell Grant. That is amazing.
- 19:46That's that's, that's amazing. If Grant, if Grant came in at
- 19:5315, oh man, where was I think that addresses all the things.
- 19:59Was there anything else? Colton, Why are you ranking
- 20:02Colton so high? I knew he had, like I knew he
- 20:05had three event wins. We didn't know what the duel
- 20:07was. We didn't know what the the last
- 20:10event was, and those events both happened to be something he was
- 20:14going to take last place at. And the run, all three that were
- 20:18not announced. Were terrible and I was thinking
- 20:22like, OK, if he can just get like 10th, you know what I mean
- 20:27and he has three event wins. He's going to be high up there.
- 20:31And they were all just, they were all terrible.
- 20:35And so like you want to say it's on me, you can if you want to
- 20:37say I have an excuse, you can. I'll take I'll take the credit
- 20:41or discredit however you want with that.
- 20:45Yeah, we'll close this out here in a second, but 62% say Brian
- 20:51Friend and Hitler should do another event preview show.
- 20:54Good. I mean, I and I hope they do.
- 20:55I hope they're best friends and they they just do each other
- 20:58afterwards, you know? I don't, I don't care.
- 21:00You do I. Never said they shouldn't do
- 21:02another show. Hitler wants to be best buddies
- 21:04with Brian. You go ahead.
- 21:05I can't stop him from doing anything he wants to do, you
- 21:08know? James says.
- 21:09I bet Brian Friend would have seen that coming.
- 21:11I bet Brian Friend sucks donkey Dick.
- 21:13James, that's what I bet. But you didn't see that coming,
- 21:16James. Yeah, that was unexpected.
- 21:23All right, moving on. Rogue tears.
- 21:28We we watched. Great.
- 21:29Jason, here you are. Calm your tits down.
- 21:32Oh yeah, Jason did comment. I need to bring that up Hopper.
- 21:37Only one Media Hill. And it there should only be 1.
- 21:402. After that, I actually really
- 21:47applaud just the effort that went into it, even if it.
- 21:52Was totally wrong. Even if you know, even if I I
- 21:54feel like it could have been done better, like I just for it
- 21:57is I, I think the concept was very, very well.
- 22:03We need to start a second pole. Dick is definitely a cuss word.
- 22:08In my vernacular I don't consider it 1 so so if you do
- 22:13well then I'm sorry. All right, Rogue tears we wanted
- 22:20to go through after watching every minute of it.
- 22:23I don't know, Tyler, if you caught it or if you were too
- 22:25busy baby showering it up, but. I I've watched more of it than
- 22:30not. OK.
- 22:32Well, hopefully you can add to the conversation that we are
- 22:36going to if you've ever. Watched.
- 22:40It's a fair assumption. We are going to, if you ever
- 22:46watched, you've seen any of the rankings, S tier rankings.
- 22:51So, John, you want to explain the S tier for those who have
- 22:55never seen it before? Sure, S tier is stands for Super
- 23:01Saiyan right? What does it actually stand for?
- 23:04I have no idea, but I know it's. Supreme.
- 23:07Or something. Yeah, S is above the letters.
- 23:10You did so good, we don't even want to call you a letter.
- 23:12You don't get a grade. You're just better than
- 23:14everybody. Right, it is the best place.
- 23:16Just makes no sense. Why is the A tier not the best
- 23:19tier? Superior.
- 23:22Superior. I don't know like.
- 23:23All of them, all the rest ABCDEF.
- 23:26No, because like a tier. It is.
- 23:29It's a. It means special, super or
- 23:31exemplary because there's no S in there.
- 23:36That's what AI says. Sweet.
- 23:39Yeah, it's above a. Either way, that's what that's
- 23:42where the best stuff goes. So we're going to go, I have a
- 23:45handful. I think I have like 14 of these
- 23:47things. Cross CrossFit, Shouldn't it be
- 23:50super? What?
- 23:56I'm glad you found that funny, Tyler.
- 23:58What would it? Would it not just be like
- 24:00Exceeds Expectations? No, it's the very best, like the
- 24:04best of the best. Like when you think about
- 24:06fantasy football, they always put like the guys that.
- 24:08But it's not just. Straight match, nobody would.
- 24:10Nobody would argue against this. Right.
- 24:12Yeah, yeah. But if you get a guy that's
- 24:14supposed to be 5 points and he gets 20 points, he should be an
- 24:17S tier. It's not straight, just the best
- 24:20people. Right, right.
- 24:22All right, here we go. First one, the venue.
- 24:26How do we rate? Are we not ranking people?
- 24:29No, there's people in here, but it's just stuff.
- 24:31OK, OK, it's stuff. I thought this was just people.
- 24:35This is not people. This is all kinds of stuff.
- 24:38We're at the P&J arena in Scotland.
- 24:42Do we like it? B.
- 24:44Do we care? Yeah, I don't care.
- 24:46That's why I said. For me that's why it's AC tier,
- 24:48because it's like it's cool but it's an indoor only arena and
- 24:52like it's in Scotland is its only special feature.
- 24:57What else is special about it? What can it do that no other
- 25:00arena can do? And I I like the Dell Diamond
- 25:05better than it, but I've never been to it.
- 25:07So like maybe if we went to it, it would feel a little bit
- 25:09different from a viewers. You know how I feel about indoor
- 25:12arenas. Yeah, I, yeah.
- 25:13I know I would say ACI mean I think it works.
- 25:17I dude it's not bad. I'm not saying it's bad CS CS
- 25:23make degrees buddy. I think we put it in C all.
- 25:26Right. For the record, I'm AB for the
- 25:28venue. All right.
- 25:31I don't think there's anything that's like above average like
- 25:34that you couldn't do at wherever.
- 25:38Yeah, OK. All right, Next up.
- 25:41I don't feel convicted enough to fight you.
- 25:43Jeff Adler, where we rank. Him a across all rogue why not
- 25:50S? Because I expected it and he
- 25:53didn't. He didn't look dominant, he just
- 25:56was consistent throughout the whole competition.
- 25:58I'll take that hey tier. Jeff Hadler A tier, I agree with
- 26:04that. Yeah, it wasn't.
- 26:06It wasn't. If he had locked it up way ahead
- 26:09of time, I'd be more willing to say.
- 26:12Yeah, Adler would need like a Fraser like performance for me
- 26:14to put him in South tier. OK.
- 26:18Yeah. I can go with that.
- 26:21Next up, Kiki, enter after event interviews.
- 26:26A tier. And I'll, I'll let you guys.
- 26:28So much entertainers from Kiki. Great.
- 26:34Quality out out of my expertise. Quality questions where I asked
- 26:39like no no. Qualms.
- 26:44There's a lot of FS out there once you.
- 26:45Get the S Here is the athletes handling the questions that were
- 26:49so bad and like she asked one question to Lucy that I was like
- 26:54how the fuck are you even going to answer that?
- 26:58Oh, Judy coming in. God, Judy, What type of language
- 27:02is this? It's.
- 27:04Worse, are you putting her in the?
- 27:06News were great, Jason, but you basically were like, yeah, give
- 27:09me that. Mic, it didn't matter what she
- 27:11asked, you were just going to talk you.
- 27:13We already know you planned out your answers.
- 27:15So yeah, are we putting her down?
- 27:21An. FEE.
- 27:24Yeah, she's she got to stay off F because it's not like if
- 27:27you're an F like. There's only 1F in this whole
- 27:30thing. Uh oh.
- 27:31Do. You even know what it is.
- 27:34No, I'll know it when I see it, but there's not like you know
- 27:36they're going to be bad things. There's 1F.
- 27:39All right, Well, Kiki's not it. All right, James Sprague.
- 27:46I would say S tear. Why?
- 27:51Because Rogue is literally goes against James's body and Abby
- 28:01Grace agrees that James Frank should be an S here.
- 28:06If if every single competition across any single year, Rogue
- 28:13James should finish the worst at Rogue.
- 28:17Any of the. Any of the competitions he
- 28:20should finish the worst at Rogue and the precedent that he set at
- 28:25Rogue, just how he executed events.
- 28:30He got third place in an event that Colton dominated the field,
- 28:34like by a lot in the sandbag clean squatting workout.
- 28:39If anybody predicted him to do as well as he did.
- 28:43That's not Grant. Yeah.
- 28:45That's not Grant I want to know. I I would say S here and quite
- 28:49honestly, and I'm going to stand by this.
- 28:52I know we're not doing the prediction show, but James
- 28:55Sprague is my pick to win the 2026 CrossFit Games, and I'm
- 28:59going to say that all. Somebody referenced that.
- 29:02Keep that, clip it. Clip it anytime I'm asked,
- 29:05that's what I'm going to say. I'm going to stand by it even if
- 29:093 Oh, look at Tyler. Tyler put him third place.
- 29:15That's my point. Nobody expected it.
- 29:17The guy who picks the worst picks of all time picks him to
- 29:20be third. Right, I, I don't I'll, I'll let
- 29:25you take S tier. I don't agree because I think
- 29:28it's like to me S is if he gets first, I think he definitely
- 29:33deserves an A tier. But like S is like, man, you
- 29:35really blew us all out of the water here.
- 29:38I mean. But like for me, he did.
- 29:41Heavy, heavy log, clean and press, heavy back squats,
- 29:47sandbags. I guess it was a carry.
- 29:50It wasn't that bad, but the heavy sandbag, the deadlifts,
- 29:54like there were a lot of things going against them that he
- 29:56easily. Sucked on the log musclev's last
- 29:58year. He sucked on the lateral
- 29:59pegboard last year. At least for people who improved
- 30:02on everything, he improved the most.
- 30:04Yeah, Grant for John. Welcome to the team, brother.
- 30:09Never mind, put him on the team here.
- 30:11I take it back. Jason Hopper wins the cross for
- 30:13games again. I don't, I don't, I don't.
- 30:18I and Tyler, you had him third. So for you it makes sense for
- 30:22you to think 8th here because he did what you thought he would
- 30:24do. I didn't expect him to be that.
- 30:28Even if he did, even if he did great for him.
- 30:30I was thinking 5th or 6th. I will say, like I think he's
- 30:35capable of getting third, but it is like a hopeful, like in all
- 30:40my picks, there's a little bit of hope.
- 30:41It's a hard pick, but I do think he is capable of doing that.
- 30:44It's just like he has to have a good weekend and it's like he
- 30:46had a great weekend. Yeah, for sure.
- 30:50Next up, the programming. Where would you put the
- 30:53programming? There it is.
- 31:02Let me let me start. You want to.
- 31:04You want to do it first. Let me start because I I think
- 31:06I'm. I think we're going to be
- 31:08different here. OK, so for me it's it's within
- 31:13the context of what Rogue is and I've like I've never had a
- 31:17problem with the fact that like they have their vibe, they want
- 31:21to go heavy, they want to do skilled stuff.
- 31:24Like they have the rogue thing and that doesn't bother me.
- 31:27For the guys I would give it like AB.
- 31:31For the girls I would give it an F.
- 31:33OK. Well, I would give it AD so he
- 31:39would have balanced it out. Yeah, I think that's fair.
- 31:41I think overall it's AD. And I'll get, I'll give my
- 31:45reasoning. Can you tell me if you agree,
- 31:47Tyler? I I think for already strength
- 31:51biased competition it was the most strength biased of any year
- 31:56Rogue has ever done a competition.
- 31:59Strength meaning power output as well.
- 32:02And it's already being strength bias.
- 32:05It tips way more into that spectrum than I think it
- 32:08normally does. The body weight bench press is
- 32:14the worst event of all time. I don't care.
- 32:16And what's funny is they got saved because people suck at
- 32:20lateral pegboards. They got saved because.
- 32:24It. Doesn't matter.
- 32:26The bench press didn't matter. But why have the bench press in
- 32:31there then? Yeah, Like, they're like, it
- 32:34just doesn't make sense. Like the bench press never
- 32:36mattered. It being body weight was already
- 32:38the worst thing of all time to have in a competition.
- 32:41The work. The athletes literally are not
- 32:43doing the same workout. I don't care about the law,
- 32:48Jason. Get better.
- 32:49That's not a part of the bad programming.
- 32:51I don't care at all that you suck so bad at that lock, you
- 32:55really do. But it's you know, that's that's
- 32:58your problem. That's not my programming
- 33:00ranking problem. 31 handstand push ups.
- 33:04There's 31 strict handstand push ups, most irrelevant movements
- 33:09in all of the events. If Laura Horvath gets third
- 33:13place in a handstand push up event, then why are the
- 33:17handstand put you did nothing. The handstand push ups are
- 33:19literally literally meant nothing.
- 33:24Here's one for you. Do you think they programmed
- 33:29such light handstand push ups to make it a race between Tia and
- 33:32Laura? For for that event specifically.
- 33:37Just didn't like this. Would have been a great
- 33:40competition for Tia versus Laura.
- 33:44Oh cuz Laura would do great cuz the handstand.
- 33:46Yeah, she wouldn't have A1 bad workout.
- 33:48That would. And then if you're, if you're
- 33:50programming for two people, I think you're already making a
- 33:52mistake. You should just program the
- 33:55program. You shouldn't program the
- 33:57hopefully get a race at the end of it.
- 33:59I I don't think that's smart either.
- 34:01I'm James it it, it turned out to be irrelevant, but I'm saying
- 34:08why have it there if it's going to be irrelevant?
- 34:12On top of that, it was body weight, which like it it, it,
- 34:15it's, it's just the whole thing is bad.
- 34:20Why I I just none of it made sense.
- 34:24I don't think that made sense. 31 handstand push ups, the most
- 34:26relevant thing in the world. I think you did that, Brian.
- 34:30If they did that to keep Laura in it versus Tia, I think that's
- 34:34retarded. I don't get the handstand push
- 34:37ups being there. There was one other thing.
- 34:40There's one other thing y'all can y'all think of it?
- 34:42I I don't know, it escapes me, but I remember there was one
- 34:44other thing that I really didn't like.
- 34:46Lucy Campbell, dude, that was not the only heavy and that was
- 34:51response to Mr. Young. Lucy, don't entertain.
- 34:54Him it. Was less deadlift.
- 34:58Yeah, don't, don't play. No attention to that.
- 35:00Don't entertain him. He has no concept of what heavy
- 35:03means. Every CrossFit game should be
- 35:07what this rogue was if it was up.
- 35:09To. Him or heavier or heavier.
- 35:15Dude, you're hitting on so many points in that article that I
- 35:18wrote, it's killing me. Yeah, I need to.
- 35:21I need to publish that tomorrow. It's all good.
- 35:23It's all good. I struggle with it because like,
- 35:27I've never been one that's like, it has to be this perfect.
- 35:30Oh, I know the other thing. Do you want to go, Brian?
- 35:35He was no, I don't want you to forget, so go.
- 35:39The sandbag event killed everybody, roasted everybody.
- 35:43I have no problem with that event, but that event should be
- 35:47on the last day because it kind of just made everybody roasted
- 35:52for the rest of the competition where we wouldn't have, we
- 35:57didn't. We wouldn't get the races that
- 35:59we normally would have do. You think they could have done
- 36:02that at the end of the end of the competition though?
- 36:04I do because if you no, not the duel the the sandbag back squat
- 36:09dumbbells. Oh yeah, that just.
- 36:10Because here's the thing, if you put the the burpee overhead
- 36:14squat workout in place of that workout, like people are fine,
- 36:21people are fine, everybody's not roasted the last day.
- 36:24You kill them and then you do the last workout is A50 cow
- 36:26Byte, right? And I just think the order of
- 36:29events would have been better. Every single athlete there was
- 36:32saying their back was broken except for Colton.
- 36:37Yeah, no, that's fair. No, I struggle with the
- 36:40programming because I'm not one that's like it has to be
- 36:43perfectly balanced. But with that said, there
- 36:49probably should be a little bit of balance.
- 36:52And like, yeah, when when the only thing you have is event one
- 36:59and some burpees over a bar, everything else is literally a
- 37:03strength workout. You got some running in there I
- 37:08guess, but that's it. So I'll go, I'll split the
- 37:16difference with John. I'll go with D that work.
- 37:19For you sounds like AD, do you know?
- 37:22If Hobart is good buddies with the Spieler Bridges, I don't.
- 37:28Know. I'm sure he can tell you.
- 37:29I'm just curious if he's like trying to like back up his his
- 37:31boys or not. No, I think he's just pushing
- 37:34back on you. I for the women, it became more
- 37:37after the analysis that I did, it became so apparent that they
- 37:41they may have tested it with a woman, but they did it with like
- 37:44one woman. They hadn't.
- 37:47Carolyn. I guess it's it was so not made
- 37:53for women to be able to like really the the entire field to
- 37:56be able to produce on it. There were so many people who
- 37:59did very poorly in all of the events.
- 38:04So yeah, it's. I mean, if, if I think what Alex
- 38:07said was basically everybody was not back there crying.
- 38:10Like that's not good. Yeah.
- 38:13All right, Next up, Haley. Is there a is there a like it
- 38:20needs to be AG tier for ghost? F tier.
- 38:25F tier. Do you think there's any chance
- 38:28she's sick or hurt? No.
- 38:30Or is it just not in shape? I think she was that bad at this
- 38:34competition. G for gone.
- 38:39It's hard to argue, Tyler, do you have any reason to say that
- 38:42she's not F? No, I mean that's the lowest
- 38:46year we can. Go.
- 38:46And I don't, I don't. I don't really want to talk bad
- 38:49about her. Now I feel I don't want to talk
- 38:51bad about it, but it is like, dude, are you?
- 38:53Alone, she was just really bad. Yeah.
- 38:57I mean, that's why I asked. Is there any chance she's hurt
- 39:00or sick? I don't think so.
- 39:02OK, She she didn't look it. She just looked bad.
- 39:08That's. Fair, all right.
- 39:10She looked, she looked like prepared.
- 39:12She looked like Tyler out there. Quite frankly, possibly worse.
- 39:18Tyler not No. No, dig, but how you were at
- 39:25Crash, How you were at Crash? Oh yeah.
- 39:29Is that not like a good representation of how she was at
- 39:32Rogue? No, because I came out there
- 39:34bewildered. I was like, Oh my God, I am way
- 39:36less fit. Like.
- 39:36She did not look confused. I was confused because I was
- 39:40like I did not realize that when.
- 39:41I lost. I was I was confused.
- 39:44I was so confused. I was like, where is my engine?
- 39:49But then you know, she, you look at her and she was just like,
- 39:52Yep, not it's not happening. I, it's, it's, I hope she gets
- 39:58it together. It's sad.
- 40:00I'm I'm sad for her. Next up, the broadcast.
- 40:06I got no problem with the broadcast.
- 40:11Be. Just to fill just to fill it
- 40:14out. It's it was solid.
- 40:18There was nothing like crazy. They did a fine job.
- 40:23You know, some, some people say we just talk to talk.
- 40:28Those guys did I? I feel like they talk a lot for
- 40:32professional broadcasters. John, what do you think?
- 40:36Did you put it be? I I never listened to it, so I
- 40:42can't comment ever. We we were on the speed.
- 40:44Cast. This is a good point.
- 40:46Oh, I listened to it while we were talking.
- 40:48Does this count? Are you only talking about the
- 40:50commentating broadcast? No broadcast.
- 40:57This is this is Sean and and Adrian.
- 41:00OK, so it's a. Comment and the and the and the
- 41:03camera work and watching that. OK, although the graphics were
- 41:07cool as shit. I'd say BI mean.
- 41:11Yeah, B was it? Was I don't really have any
- 41:12complaints to it, but I can see your point of.
- 41:19There was sometimes I was like, why are we looking at?
- 41:21This I I think we did miss some some good races.
- 41:24There were sometimes where, you know, they weren't showing
- 41:26people we wanted. I for whatever reason, could not
- 41:30get the alternate views to work after Friday.
- 41:32I don't know why. But pay for the Did you pay your
- 41:35dollar 99? That's what it was.
- 41:38That's what it was. And I'm sorry, I just, I just I,
- 41:43I was with, you know, I did your spin cast and it's, I never
- 41:46listened to it this weekend, no. You're good.
- 41:48I I always have it on just so I can hear if I can catch
- 41:51something that they say that's important.
- 41:54Next up, the graphics flight was not part of it, Tyler.
- 41:57Dude I think AI think that big graphic on the duel was.
- 42:01Amazing that was SI think those were the nicest graphics we've
- 42:05ever seen. In, if you want to say S, I'll
- 42:07I'll, I'll go for. SI mean between the lanes being
- 42:10superimposed the the bracket before the bracket used to be on
- 42:15a white board with little stickers or whatever that they
- 42:17had on there and they moved it around.
- 42:20Guys, hold on before we put this one up there.
- 42:22S is for Sprague, A is for Adler and B is for broadcast.
- 42:26I just I just coincidence. Graphics are going oh wait, no,
- 42:35I think they're S. I'm going they're I'm good for
- 42:37sure. We've never seen another
- 42:40broadcast with that level of graphics.
- 42:42I want to know. What's cost?
- 42:44That's fair, yeah. Like, I bet those graphics alone
- 42:47were 10s of thousands of dollars, yeah.
- 42:49Yeah, for sure. Next up, the run route G is for
- 42:56GE well. This is OK, I mean I would say.
- 43:04I'm out on this. I didn't get to see the run
- 43:06route. I would say B like I like.
- 43:09I don't really. I think it was fine.
- 43:11I don't think it was bad. No, I don't think it was bad.
- 43:15I thought it. Was good that they actually.
- 43:17Ran through? Yeah.
- 43:18Run through the crowd. Have everybody there.
- 43:20I'm good with a if you're good with a but.
- 43:23I'd say B. OK, I I think if they like ran
- 43:26through a castle, that would have been cooler.
- 43:29Like if you run to a castle and then you got to run up the steps
- 43:31of the castle and we had cameras in the castle, then that would
- 43:34have been really awesome. But I understand you can't rent
- 43:37out castles. We could.
- 43:38You could have had the people. You could have had the the the
- 43:40crowd standing outside. It's just the weather.
- 43:42You could, you could be like, hey, we're going to be at Count
- 43:45Dracula's house at seven, 7:00. It's.
- 43:49Translating it could have been like the capital, but it would
- 43:52been the cast. Do you know any castle names in
- 43:55Scotland? No.
- 43:59OK, Jason, what is a castle? I need a castle stain.
- 44:03He's visiting Downs, visiting him.
- 44:06Next up, Lucy, she's in the chat.
- 44:10Be careful. S2S2S all the way.
- 44:12OK, I'll go with this. You think you, you, you.
- 44:15Yeah. It's the exact same as spray.
- 44:18I'd say AI think she I would I would had higher expectations of
- 44:22Lucy than James going into this weekend.
- 44:25Dude, Lucy. Lucy's great man.
- 44:28I would put Lucy in A and if Alex comes up I'd put her in S.
- 44:35See, I feel the exact opposite 'cause I I had a.
- 44:39Broken fucking. I I predicted her to be second.
- 44:43I expected that of Alex. I didn't expect Lucy to podium.
- 44:49Rogue, just like James, is literally geared to be the
- 44:52opposite of what she's good at. And dude, she was awesome.
- 44:57I. If Tia wasn't there.
- 44:59If Tia wasn't there, Lucy would be my pick for the 2026 CrossFit
- 45:03Games. I think Lucy beats Laura
- 45:05straight up in the CrossFit Games.
- 45:07Straight up. You don't even have to have
- 45:11that. If everybody's ass, chat's ass.
- 45:14Go ass. It's fine.
- 45:15We'll go ass. Yeah.
- 45:19She's definitely had the best year of all the women.
- 45:23Yes. And so has James.
- 45:26When you factor in everything, yeah.
- 45:27I think James and Lucy are like the exact same path.
- 45:30OK. Rank Lucy, OH.
- 45:35Yeah. Where does he have her?
- 45:37Where did you have her? 10th, 7th, 10th, 7th.
- 45:41Yeah, that's that's where I had her.
- 45:43I think that's fair though. Like.
- 45:45I do too. I think she would say it's fair.
- 45:47I love that you got got second, no third.
- 45:53But dude, she had to like have the greatest day three to get
- 45:57third. It wasn't just she.
- 45:59She was 9th place and then she was first, second, third or
- 46:04third, first, second. It doesn't like in the last
- 46:07three events she had a better day than everybody and won her
- 46:10heat. Like if she would, if she knew
- 46:12Gracie Gracie was in the same heat, she might have had two
- 46:15first, but third, first, second in the last three events, like
- 46:21it was all it was. It was a crazy, crazy comeback
- 46:23for her to get third. Yeah, Lauren Torresola.
- 46:29Is Laura gonna show up to the Games?
- 46:31It's time to prove herself. She might have to soon.
- 46:35Soon. I don't think she cares and I
- 46:37don't care if she cares, and if she does do it then it makes me
- 46:41happier that Tia's still here. Hopefully Tia's still around.
- 46:48Next up, the scoring scoring tables.
- 46:55How they score it I. Mean I'm I'm fine with it.
- 46:58I don't. You don't think there should be
- 47:00any weight towards like the top three getting more points than
- 47:04just a 5 point gap each way? No, I like the five point gap
- 47:07just because if you get a 10th place and something and it is
- 47:10the best in the world of people that are here, like a 50 point
- 47:13swing can just shift everything in a heartbeat.
- 47:16And I like that that's possible in every single event.
- 47:22See. You know, you know my.
- 47:28Spiel. Yeah, yeah, You know my spiel on
- 47:31this, It's fine. Like.
- 47:32Have you done the Peace Corps for everybody yet?
- 47:34Yes. What is it?
- 47:35What is it? Articles coming out tomorrow.
- 47:37You have 3. Days.
- 47:37Oh, OK, OK, OK, OK. I don't get any in.
- 47:40OK, that's fine. I see how it is.
- 47:42It's a very different Peace Corps article than I've ever
- 47:44written. You're right.
- 47:45If you tell me, I'll tell people.
- 47:47So we can't tell me. It's fine, It's fine.
- 47:51I see how it is. There's a reason.
- 47:53I see how it is. It's all right.
- 47:54Yeah, scoring's fine. I, I mean the way you could just
- 47:59do the, the open scoring honestly and just do one through
- 48:0120 instead you give them a hundred.
- 48:04I I still think you should get some benefit if you're going to
- 48:08not have P score, which again, whatever.
- 48:11Like give them more points for winning.
- 48:15Yes, because you have a situation like Colton where it's
- 48:18like, dude, I got five points for that and I murdered
- 48:21everybody. Right.
- 48:23So like I'd, I'd like to see something that's either 678
- 48:28points, you know, maybe, maybe it's eight points different for
- 48:311st to 2nd 7 and then it gets down to like a a gap where it's
- 48:35smaller at the end. Like, yeah, that's the only
- 48:38thing I would change it. What's that?
- 48:40Yeah, but maybe even more extreme because it's only 20.
- 48:42Athletes, yeah, but double? Do something that's a little bit
- 48:45happier, yeah. That'd be.
- 48:47Cool. That'd be cool.
- 48:49The I think you, you know what you're signing up for.
- 48:52When you do the competition, you know what scoring system it's
- 48:55gonna have. When people do crash, they know
- 48:57it's P score. People do rogue, they know it's
- 49:005 and you do the open, you know it's 123.
- 49:02When you do the games, you know it's by 4, then three and then
- 49:05two. I truly don't care about any of
- 49:11them. You know you're you know what
- 49:12you're signing up for. It's like every single scoring
- 49:16system would be AB to me. Just because this is what you
- 49:19signed up for, you know what it's gonna be.
- 49:21Yeah, yeah. It's just, it exists.
- 49:23And Tyler and I'm in like you're fine and having like your bias.
- 49:27I get that 100 like that's the that's.
- 49:29You and I just differ in the ranking.
- 49:31You're saying it's AB. I'm just saying it's AC.
- 49:33Like that's where baseline is. Sure, sure.
- 49:36Ben. Does it make me a bad person
- 49:39that I really enjoyed this mistake on Peace Corps?
- 49:41Do you know about this? I called into Sevons when he was
- 49:44on because they were talking about Peace Corps evidently and
- 49:46butchering it. I explained it to him and he
- 49:50picks it up 0 like it's it's crickets, dude.
- 49:55And I'm like, what the fuck am I getting wrong?
- 49:58And I caught it's another instance word Hiller actually
- 50:02called me and I was like, dude, did I fuck that up?
- 50:05He goes, yeah. And I was like, the problem was
- 50:13I was talking to him like someone who knows like who who
- 50:18has studied it as much as I have.
- 50:19I was speaking to him like straight across instead of like
- 50:22speaking to like you would to a crowd that doesn't know what the
- 50:25fuck you're talking about. He didn't have an opinion on it.
- 50:30And then after I get. Off care about sport?
- 50:32No, he doesn't care about sport. But then after I get off he
- 50:35basically was like, I admire people who look deeply into
- 50:38topics that no one gives a shit about.
- 50:43Dude, that's it's rough. I, I I.
- 50:49It was such, it was such a good. Burn.
- 50:52It's like the the most good one backhanded compliment I've ever
- 50:55heard of. I'm not even sure it's a
- 50:58compliment, but it wasn't. But it was so good.
- 51:01I was like, all right, I'll take.
- 51:02It and you know, you know, that's so genuine, you know what
- 51:08I mean? He truly believes.
- 51:09That yeah, yeah. Yeah, all right.
- 51:12Next up, odd objects. You got the log.
- 51:17We got the log muscle up. We've got the sideways pegboard,
- 51:23all kinds of odd objects, sandbags.
- 51:25Again, again, I would say B for me, and it's really just because
- 51:28it's rogue. You know you're going to have
- 51:30them, but like I, I don't care, but you know you're going to
- 51:37have. Do you like seeing that many odd
- 51:40objects? Yeah, I don't mind them.
- 51:42But again, it's just like, like, this is the flavor of the
- 51:44competition, you know? It's funny 'cause if you change
- 51:48the if you put the odd objects in the games, I feel like they
- 51:51would get an A, but because they're rogue.
- 51:53But this many so. So here's what I say.
- 51:55If it was this many, I'm like man I feel like there was a lot
- 51:58of odd objects in the. Game.
- 52:00Right, right. And then if, if it, but like at
- 52:02Rogue, say they only had one like where, where, where are all
- 52:06the odd objects, right? Like, but it they did what they
- 52:10do, you know, so like it's it's almost just this is what Rogue
- 52:13is that that it's not a great answer, but for me it's AB just
- 52:17that's how I feel about it. Yeah, it's I do AB.
- 52:20Did he say that? He knows who I am.
- 52:29Now blue eyes. Yeah, yeah, we've met.
- 52:34We should we? Should we?
- 52:35Should the Gazan the Gazan penalty the the 22nd penalty for
- 52:40not stepping on the top of the box of the the steer?
- 52:43That's crazy town, banana pants. Dude she still won.
- 52:47Like it made zero difference in the scoreboard.
- 52:49We're we're rating whether or not we're rating the penalty
- 52:51itself. The penalty is an F.
- 52:54Yeah, I mean, I don't, I don't care, but yeah, I think it's
- 52:56stupid. How is it 20 seconds?
- 53:00Danielle. Most, most it could be 4.
- 53:05I'll go. I'll even go 6 to get crazy.
- 53:07The 20. Yeah, I'm with Tyler.
- 53:11We'll go F. Yeah, that was that was
- 53:16interesting. I.
- 53:17Don't know. I think they I think they
- 53:18literally were like how many seconds can we give her and she
- 53:21still win? I bet.
- 53:23I bet you they were just trying to F up P score this entire time
- 53:26with all the penalties. That could be.
- 53:29That could be just. Take I should take 20 seconds
- 53:31off. Her you should take their
- 53:32original times, the people who got penalized their original
- 53:35times. Or no, that's so.
- 53:37The thing about that event is 'cause it's the the duel.
- 53:42No, not that one. No.
- 53:43Which one? Is this is this event too?
- 53:45It's with the stair step. Yeah, it's the log and.
- 53:51OK, never mind then. Yeah, Laura Horvath.
- 53:55What would you rate her? I would say a yeah, she did what
- 54:02was expected. She did handstand push up event
- 54:06was irrelevant, so it didn't really make a difference.
- 54:09But I think she executed as good as we thought she was going to
- 54:13and. Had it wrapped up after 8 of.
- 54:15Us. She looked lean.
- 54:16She looked mean. She has one gargantuan hole that
- 54:23if people are scared to program because she's at your
- 54:26competition, then that like she's going to do this right.
- 54:32Tia would. I think Tia would still beat
- 54:34her. But Laura Horvath, you know,
- 54:37probably is between her and Lucy.
- 54:39Like she's definitely the top three fittest woman in the world
- 54:42at any given moment. And if it's a competition like
- 54:44Rogue, I expect her to dominate. Sir.
- 54:47Given her name, based on the mood, she seemed to be just way.
- 54:51Happier. Happier, more chill like.
- 54:55Yeah, there's only 31 handstand push ups.
- 54:56I bet if it was a deficit handstand push up, I bet her
- 54:59mood would be a little different.
- 55:00Yeah, that. Could be if you take, if you
- 55:02give her zero points in that event, which is what she would
- 55:04have gotten because that's what she's done.
- 55:06Every single freaking competition that has deficit
- 55:10handstand push ups, she's taken a 0.
- 55:14Every single one you give hers, you wrote points in that event.
- 55:19Alex Kazan wins Rogue. Dude, when I was listening to
- 55:22this take on the way back, I was like screaming.
- 55:25I was like, yes, John's right. Like Savon wasn't picking it up
- 55:29enough. I was like, no, John's 100%
- 55:31correct. Right.
- 55:34Which which one? Which tape?
- 55:35That that if. Oh yeah, yeah.
- 55:39And like I I thought they would talk way more about it and they
- 55:42didn't. Yeah, Next up, the duel.
- 55:47Faster, no issues. S best best duel they've ever
- 55:53had the going men and women. It shows that they they're
- 55:56listening and the graphic was in the duel the like the best
- 56:01graphic that we've ever seen probably. 50% less torn
- 56:04Achilles. Even like regardless of what the
- 56:10event was like, obviously I think there are cooler events,
- 56:18even if like I don't, I don't even think this was the best
- 56:21version of the duel as far as like the event right or the
- 56:25race, but just the flow of it was so much better that I think
- 56:30this is S tier. But I'm willing to be swayed by
- 56:32you guys. That's just for me.
- 56:35Is there any way, I mean, I, Katie spoke about it on Savon's
- 56:38show that she was happy with how the duel was like they got rid
- 56:42like they saw that putting overhead squats in the duel was
- 56:45a bad idea right from a few years ago.
- 56:48And so the last couple years it's been there's really nothing
- 56:52to judge, right? Like you see them do it and
- 56:55they, they, they finish. But what that lends to is the
- 57:00same style event every time. Yep.
- 57:04Like like Laura wins every time, Danny takes second every time,
- 57:08Guy is right up there every time unless he hurts his shoulder.
- 57:11Like it's the same style of event.
- 57:16Is there any way you can change it that you're literally not
- 57:20giving Laura and Danny 195 points every time?
- 57:24Like that's gymnastic space or something.
- 57:28That's not just straight up power every single time.
- 57:33Yeah, you, you definitely can't. I want to let me address this
- 57:35really quick 'cause we got what's freaking Clydesdale
- 57:39galore in the comments. No way she didn't have to do the
- 57:45last event that hard and already had it in the bag.
- 57:47Laura would have won regardless. You say that, Carolyn, but say
- 57:50she wins if Alex thinks she can win and has a chance to win.
- 57:55Alex also had second wrapped up right And you can say like Laura
- 58:00would have won if Alex gets 2nd and Laura wins, like the scores
- 58:06would have would have been different both ways.
- 58:09And you can't just say Laura would have won.
- 58:11She didn't go do it. Gracie won from heat one, which
- 58:15means like I like you don't just know she's going to win.
- 58:20And if Alex is within 15 points of her, then like I think you
- 58:27know, if Alex is 15 points ahead going into that event.
- 58:30You you act differently. You bike differently, Yeah.
- 58:33There's a lot you can't just say.
- 58:34No, she would have won. So then it would have been way
- 58:37different. There are 35 points up for
- 58:39grabs, right? Alex would have been up for 15
- 58:41points. She was 8th place.
- 58:44You don't know that she wouldn't beat Gracie because nobody beat
- 58:46Gracie. Gracie dominated that event.
- 58:48So that's five points off of there.
- 58:50If Alex goes within three spots of her, that makes up 15 points
- 58:54of her 8th place. Done you got.
- 58:57You don't know that that can't happen because Alex had second
- 59:00wrapped up too. All I'm saying scoreboard wise,
- 59:06Alex would have been ahead of her had she took zero in that
- 59:10event. She would have been ahead of
- 59:12her. You don't know what would happen
- 59:15to Event 9. You can't just say Laura would
- 59:17win. Yeah, she probably would have
- 59:19tried a little bit harder, but that's on her.
- 59:24Jewel, where would you put it? You, John, You had S, right?
- 59:28I think it's SI am 100% OK with you guys not putting it S just
- 59:33for the reasons you said Brian, I would love it to be a little
- 59:36bit different than it always is, but.
- 59:38That's the only reason I would say it's not S, but I do
- 59:41appreciate them listening for feedback and making it back and
- 59:46forth because when I heard it oh the duels back, I didn't want to
- 59:49watch. You could do.
- 59:51I could say the same with log bar Muslims, you know, I mean
- 59:54they do just they do the same stuff every single.
- 59:57Sure. At least it's paired with
- 59:58different stuff, right? But like and the same people,
- 1:00:02you can improve on it. I'm not sure, like the dual,
- 1:00:05you're going to see if they keep doing the exact same thing, the
- 1:00:08same people are going to be up there every time.
- 1:00:10John, what's the workout? I think it's 2013 or 14.
- 1:00:14I think it's 13 over at it was GHD sit ups with the the ring
- 1:00:21over the wall, the burpees over the wall.
- 1:00:24Oh, Rich and Rich Froning won. Dan Bailey was second.
- 1:00:27It was 2000, I think 14 because that was the year you went three
- 1:00:32for three. You could.
- 1:00:32Do you could take the snatches out of that, add something else,
- 1:00:36But like you can essentially do that, which is more gymnastics
- 1:00:38based. And I, I kind of like that.
- 1:00:41It might be a little bit longer, but you could change that up and
- 1:00:44I think it would be cool. The burpees over the wall in
- 1:00:46particular. A deficit Carolyn, I'm not going
- 1:00:51to bring up a comment and get and show me every single freaky
- 1:00:55workout Laurel Horvath has done A strict deficit handstand push
- 1:00:59up and tell me she wouldn't get last place.
- 1:01:02You're better than this. You're better than this.
- 1:01:05A strict deficit handstand push up.
- 1:01:08Show me the workout where she's not last place.
- 1:01:11It wouldn't matter about the last barbell because she
- 1:01:15wouldn't get to the second barbell.
- 1:01:16Carolyn, you are better than this.
- 1:01:19You're smarter than this. I'm not entertaining this
- 1:01:21anymore. God, Tyler, where would you put
- 1:01:26it? I'd give it an A for I think
- 1:01:31John's right. Like for a duel.
- 1:01:34It's the best it could have gone to me personally.
- 1:01:37Like they're fun, they're cute I guess, but I don't think they
- 1:01:41have it. They have a place in Rogue.
- 1:01:44They're not a fitness test, it's a who fucks up test.
- 1:01:48I'm going to say a you got 2A's in South.
- 1:01:51Jason I I caught basically I only caught Jason in.
- 1:01:57The dual. Yeah, like it was.
- 1:02:00I was so lucky and I caught him qualifying to the last round and
- 1:02:05he bobbled something and I was freaking out and I was like,
- 1:02:07Jason has to win this. I was like, this is his thing to
- 1:02:11win. If he doesn't win, I'm going to
- 1:02:12freak the hell out. And he won at the end of it.
- 1:02:14It was really cool. And those moments, it creates
- 1:02:17moments that are fun and tense. So it it's good.
- 1:02:22He only he only won because Gee hurt his arm.
- 1:02:27I I really wish we would have got to see him and Gee like like
- 1:02:31a healthy ghee cause ghee was noticeably slower.
- 1:02:36Yeah. After he hurt his shoulder for
- 1:02:37sure. It would have been, it would
- 1:02:38have been really fun 'cause I mean, him and Hopper were
- 1:02:40basically the same speed and in different parts.
- 1:02:43So it would have been it would have been fun to see them go
- 1:02:45head to head. Next up, Hopper.
- 1:02:51This is tough. This is tough one.
- 1:02:52It's probably the toughest 1. Three event wins.
- 1:02:57I would say. I would.
- 1:02:58I would say B because he looked dominant at times and then and
- 1:03:08he just can't do the log muscle up.
- 1:03:11I think we could have seven years of log muscle up and he's
- 1:03:15just always going to be really bad.
- 1:03:17Log muscle up. The thing is, he's gotten
- 1:03:19better, but it's not showing him against the field.
- 1:03:24Brian, there's times where I've I've gotten better at running.
- 1:03:27B. I think you you know what I
- 1:03:29mean. It doesn't matter.
- 1:03:31B is as fair as it can be. It's like.
- 1:03:34Dude, you're not a. You didn't get a?
- 1:03:37You definitely sure she didn't get a S So like this?
- 1:03:42Is I think I I think I think let's be like best we can do
- 1:03:45'cause she did win three event when she did.
- 1:03:50I understand with this programming he's not going to
- 1:03:55win Rogue but but. Yeah.
- 1:04:00Well, yeah, he's always going to be slow at that.
- 1:04:02I don't think he's as slow as he did.
- 1:04:04I mean, I think if James can get 13, so can you.
- 1:04:07I think you're just already sad that you're not going to be 5th
- 1:04:11and then you didn't move faster, right?
- 1:04:14Like if James could do it at a certain speed, so can you.
- 1:04:17That's so I but he's always going to be bad at that event.
- 1:04:21He's never going to win that event.
- 1:04:22He's always going to be bad at that event.
- 1:04:24The log muscle up. I think we're just going to
- 1:04:26admit defeat. He's never going to be able to
- 1:04:28do it. It's Laura Strict.
- 1:04:29It's Laura. Strict deficits.
- 1:04:34Yeah, I, I think what what he did that was great was that like
- 1:04:38he stayed in it the whole time. He took some hits, some hard
- 1:04:41hits and like even even going into the last two events in
- 1:04:46event 80 got a 17th place and then he pulls out a fourth place
- 1:04:49finish on the last event. Like he stayed in the fight.
- 1:04:52He just, he didn't drag up. And like, I like that when in
- 1:04:55the bench press event school, when you have the heaviest bench
- 1:04:58press, I know the bench press meant nothing.
- 1:05:01Would have been cool if it was like 10 reps across the board
- 1:05:05where it meant a little bit more and people were getting at
- 1:05:07failure. I think he still would have won
- 1:05:08just because he was the best of the lateral pegboard, but it
- 1:05:11would have meant a little bit more, you know what I mean?
- 1:05:14You know what's funny about that positive self talk stuff?
- 1:05:18I generally am like, that's a big bunch of bullshit, but the
- 1:05:22way he did it, I kind of liked it.
- 1:05:24He created an enemy and and I like the way that he did that.
- 1:05:30Yeah, so there you go. Rankin Rogue.
- 1:05:36Any any last minute changes before we move on?
- 1:05:40You happy with our? I'm happy, Tyler.
- 1:05:42Are you happy? I'm.
- 1:05:44So happy. I think Kiki might should be an
- 1:05:46F but do. You think there's a little bias
- 1:05:50built in there? Bias in what?
- 1:05:55Just say you don't like her. Yeah, I think the questions were
- 1:05:58trash. OK, the.
- 1:06:01Questions were. I, I believe you.
- 1:06:03I, I did. I did not hear them, but I I
- 1:06:05believe you. But but it's not an F because at
- 1:06:08least the questions had some comedic value.
- 1:06:10Dude. That's fair.
- 1:06:12OK. All right, All right.
- 1:06:14I. They're so bad that they're
- 1:06:15funny, which saves them a little.
- 1:06:18Yeah, that's fair. Next.
- 1:06:20Or if they're bad and not funny. That's just yeah, those are
- 1:06:23kipping next. Next up, if you are following on
- 1:06:30Instagram, I've started to outline how to qualify to all
- 1:06:34the semifinals. We talked about a little bit
- 1:06:36last week when the announcement was made about semifinals, but I
- 1:06:40want to see and kind of play a little game here of what are the
- 1:06:45semifinals going to look at like because we have all of the in
- 1:06:48person semifinals now ahead of the online piece of it.
- 1:06:53And so let's just go through all the athletes and these are
- 1:06:57pretty much all the games athletes, some of the ones that
- 1:07:01we've seen in the past and let's just go through and throw them
- 1:07:04into a semifinal. Like where we think somebody
- 1:07:08like Jason Hopper should go realistically, Like where would
- 1:07:12he go if we could pick one place for him to go?
- 1:07:15Let's see how difficult these some of these semifinals could
- 1:07:19be. Let's do it.
- 1:07:22All right, so we'll start all the way over here on the right.
- 1:07:26Jason Hopper. Where did Jason Hopper go?
- 1:07:31Do you think you pick one? Yeah.
- 1:07:33Are they allowed to do multiple? We're only picking one for this
- 1:07:36exercise. Let me pause.
- 1:07:38Before you can do multiple for sure.
- 1:07:41But for this exercise, because I think a lot.
- 1:07:43Of exercise, Where's your best place?
- 1:07:46Well. But, but if you're Jason, do you
- 1:07:48go back to Mayhem or do you say it's going to be programmed for
- 1:07:50somebody like Colton and Hatfield?
- 1:07:51Right, if you can only do one, it's a little bit different,
- 1:07:54right. But but if, if, if and we're
- 1:07:57that's our exercise, I get. But I just think, I think all of
- 1:08:01them are going to do mayhem again and then they'll and then
- 1:08:04they will pick their one after that.
- 1:08:05He wants to go to mayhem. Yeah, but he's not playing our
- 1:08:07exercise. So this is what I want to bring
- 1:08:10up. Mayhem's got a really good
- 1:08:12payout. Who else does Norcal?
- 1:08:18Any of the others maybe the best, right?
- 1:08:20Norcal. Norcal's probably the best.
- 1:08:22Yeah, Nobody, nobody wants to count.
- 1:08:25Start trying to up the ante so that they can essentially buy
- 1:08:29better athletes to show up to their thing because that's like
- 1:08:32what's setting mayhem, you know, away from syndicate or, you
- 1:08:37know, some of the other. I mean, I do think that having
- 1:08:40Mayhem have top three does give somebody like Jason.
- 1:08:44A good chance. A better chance.
- 1:08:45I mean, it's an extra spot, but I feel like going into it
- 1:08:48knowing that only three are available, it it, it changes
- 1:08:51your mindset a little bit. And I would argue them saying
- 1:08:55that it was Colton and Austin that came out last year will
- 1:09:00make them go slightly more big biased or like less volume
- 1:09:07squatting, you know what I mean? Like just whatever they did last
- 1:09:09year, I could see them away. Tweet yeah, just just pulling
- 1:09:13away a little bit more than last year.
- 1:09:16This. Is true.
- 1:09:16It's either squat, it's with rich or 40 light ones.
- 1:09:20With Jr. that's like Jason's going to Norcal, guys.
- 1:09:22That's. That'd be.
- 1:09:23Hilarious. Jason, You would do great at
- 1:09:25Norcal. You'd push that truck so fast.
- 1:09:27You would push that truck so fast.
- 1:09:31Are we going to start with Jason?
- 1:09:32Yep, he's the first pick. He gets the pick where he goes,
- 1:09:35I don't think. It's smart for him to go to
- 1:09:37mayhem. I'm not risking it with the
- 1:09:39richest programming. I don't think that they I'm,
- 1:09:42I'm, I'm, I'm going opposite of what John is saying.
- 1:09:45I don't think they pull that hard away from the lower, the
- 1:09:49smaller guy bias. So.
- 1:09:54We sent him in syndicate. Yeah, you know what?
- 1:09:59I'm going to send him to syndicate.
- 1:10:00It's only going to be one event, Jason.
- 1:10:02You can make the top. 3 Yeah, Ricky.
- 1:10:07He's going to Torian. Goes Torian, right?
- 1:10:09Yeah, yeah. Yeah, Mr. Sprague, there's two
- 1:10:14on the West Coast. There's Legends and there's
- 1:10:16Norcal. Yeah, I think James goes to
- 1:10:18legends, man. Even though there's only two
- 1:10:20spots, yeah, I guess there's two in it either, but.
- 1:10:23I didn't. They called dibs on certain
- 1:10:25things and James was like, I'm going to legends.
- 1:10:28I think a lot of guys are probably going to legends.
- 1:10:29If you're on the West Coast, we'll say that Dallin now, now a
- 1:10:33resident of Utah. I think he's going to legends
- 1:10:38Dallin. What about mayhem?
- 1:10:40He's going to mayhem. Oh, he pulled out of Mayhem last
- 1:10:44time, right? He did, yeah.
- 1:10:47I don't know. The hard thing is they're all
- 1:10:50going to go to Mayhem. I would see these.
- 1:10:52Well, you don't go to you don't go to Mayhem and Legends.
- 1:10:56Oh, that's fair. Yeah, you're right.
- 1:10:59These, these three and Justin, they're going to do some
- 1:11:03collusion. They're either all going to say
- 1:11:05what, a couple of us are going to go here and the other couple
- 1:11:08are going to go there, or they're all going to split up
- 1:11:11and be like, we're not going to fight each other.
- 1:11:15I feel like Down would have been pretty good at Mayhem.
- 1:11:22I think he would be pretty good with Legends.
- 1:11:27How do you know what they're going to do?
- 1:11:29Oh, you know. We'll leave them there.
- 1:11:33We'll leave them there, Austin. Bob and Joe, right?
- 1:11:35Austin's going to mayhem for sure.
- 1:11:36Yeah, Austin's going to mayhem. The the one thing I would say is
- 1:11:42legends is individuals and masters.
- 1:11:48It's probably, I mean they they have so many divisions, they
- 1:11:51have to schedule their programming.
- 1:11:55Be faster, Shorter. It yeah, it has to be fat.
- 1:11:59Like they don't have longer workouts.
- 1:12:01They have to fit 18,000 divisions into a three day
- 1:12:05weekend. So I'm not going if I'm Sprague.
- 1:12:10Right. It's all you, it's look at what
- 1:12:11they've done for the masters or the age group games the last two
- 1:12:15years. And there's going to be, I mean,
- 1:12:18it's they keep talking about if you watch any of his podcast,
- 1:12:21they're looking back at the old regional events.
- 1:12:25They're just going to probably make it just heavier and change
- 1:12:29up some stuff. But.
- 1:12:31There's a lot of barbell cycling.
- 1:12:33Do Legends is going to look a lot like TFX if I was going to
- 1:12:35guess. And I think Dallin would thrive
- 1:12:38in that. Crouch.
- 1:12:41He's going to, yeah. Justin.
- 1:12:47I think Justin would do good. It made him legless.
- 1:12:51GHDS do handstand walking. Like there's just and then
- 1:12:55volume squatting. There's a lot of stuff they do
- 1:12:58that I think Justin would murder.
- 1:13:01I mean, dense is right though. I mean, doubt.
- 1:13:03They did say that all three of those guys were planning on
- 1:13:05doing Yeah, no, only, but only two, only two can go.
- 1:13:09If we're, if we're me and which is fun for us, right?
- 1:13:12Or does he go to Norcal? No, I mean, they're probably all
- 1:13:15going to go to Legends and then the loser has to go to Norcal.
- 1:13:18No, he'd go to Norcal, I'd bet. He's but he's.
- 1:13:22I think he'll, but I think he'll go.
- 1:13:23I think this is his. This is where he wants to go
- 1:13:25qualify out of. OK, fine.
- 1:13:27I'm telling you right now, I think Justin would thrive and
- 1:13:29mayhem just if he wants to do it or not.
- 1:13:35Yeah. Adler, this is harder than I I
- 1:13:38even imagined. Adler is going to syndicate, No,
- 1:13:43Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:13:45It's the most sanitary unless he goes to Mayhem.
- 1:13:49Like it just it, it's it's clean as far as like the programming,
- 1:13:54the facilities. The only other one I could see
- 1:13:58him go to is Mayhem, his Mayhem invite.
- 1:14:01Yeah. I would say he probably goes to
- 1:14:04Mayhem. Again, I think I think they go
- 1:14:09to all those, but if they had to pick one, probably Syndicate.
- 1:14:13I would say mayhem. Roman mayhem.
- 1:14:16Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:14:18That's his his shot. 3rd place last year, Tudor.
- 1:14:23Norcal. Norcal is going to be all the
- 1:14:26leftovers. Harry Lightfoot.
- 1:14:30He will be at the Mad Fitness Festival.
- 1:14:33No, no, he's at the Prince. Yeah.
- 1:14:35He's at the Prince, Yeah. Colton, so he's already
- 1:14:38qualified for Norcal. Norcal.
- 1:14:42You think he goes Norcal instead?
- 1:14:44I think that's where he ends up making it.
- 1:14:47That's his. That's his plan.
- 1:14:48Chris Ibarra, Norcal. W.
- 1:14:57Starting to get tougher now WF. Now you're starting to, now
- 1:14:59you're starting to see where people are going.
- 1:15:01WFP Chris goes. Chris goes to the Mad Fitness
- 1:15:09Festival. You think he travels abroad and
- 1:15:12goes there? I think he's going to have to.
- 1:15:14It would be smart, but I wouldn't go to Matt if I were
- 1:15:18traveling if I were. Chris, I know you're going to
- 1:15:21say Rebel, Renegade or Copa, sure, but I think Mad Fitness
- 1:15:24Festival is where he's going to go.
- 1:15:26Why not, dude? Because like, if you're going to
- 1:15:28travel, fucking do it. Where you got the?
- 1:15:31Best chance possible. You're.
- 1:15:33Not doing yourself. It's one spot, it's the same.
- 1:15:36It's the same problem you have with.
- 1:15:37That's a bill. That's a Bill Leahy move.
- 1:15:40So I don't. Yoda Koski goes to rebel in a
- 1:15:46game. Where we, where we putting I'm?
- 1:15:49Not risking anything. I ain't Eye Bar goes to the
- 1:15:52fitness festival. I think he goes all the way over
- 1:15:55there and just says that's where I'm going to this.
- 1:15:57Is the least likely place he's going to go you?
- 1:16:00Want to bet money? Yeah.
- 1:16:01You don't think I know stuff that you don't know about this
- 1:16:03guy? That I'm I'm thinking with this
- 1:16:05when you're pulling it out. Your ass Sousa, not Matt.
- 1:16:12Copa. I thought of Matt, too, he said
- 1:16:16that Copa. Sure, yeah.
- 1:16:18You don't think he goes to rebel?
- 1:16:23Yeah. Tie.
- 1:16:25Where's? The syndicate dude, he made it
- 1:16:27last time at Syndicate. Yeah.
- 1:16:29Yeah, it's getting a little tighter though.
- 1:16:32Callum Clements, He's a Spaniard, goes to mad.
- 1:16:35Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He goes to mad.
- 1:16:38Colin Bossard. He's a French guy.
- 1:16:40Yeah. He's not a French guy, but.
- 1:16:44Jack Rosima qualified on a syndicate last year, but is that
- 1:16:48the place he needs to go? Made him I.
- 1:16:51He's a military guy so I can't see him traveling a lot.
- 1:16:54Made him classic. He goes to him and then
- 1:16:59backfills from there. Jackson Jackson, make it online
- 1:17:03at the end. That's going to be French.
- 1:17:05Mad. I think it'll be mad Fitness.
- 1:17:07I think if it's, I think MAD fits it.
- 1:17:09If it's because MAD was. Remember the Spain one was the
- 1:17:12sandbag squat running like. The The Wildland Fest is now Mad
- 1:17:17Fitness Festival. That's the one me and you could
- 1:17:19do, Tyler. Oh yeah.
- 1:17:23Nick Matthew Rebel ran. Again.
- 1:17:26Yeah. Nick Matthews, the rebel
- 1:17:27renegade. Oh yeah, he.
- 1:17:31Goes to Norcal. Yeah.
- 1:17:33He'd be good at Nor Cal Best Best shot at Nor Cal.
- 1:17:37Yonah, I actually think Nick Matthews best shot is the Mad
- 1:17:40Fitness festival. Yeah, I don't think he's going
- 1:17:44to go. Though Yonah is a rebel
- 1:17:45renegade. No, that's my.
- 1:17:48Shot. He'll do French.
- 1:17:49Nah, he's a rebel renegade if I've ever.
- 1:17:52Seen French Zanoni. Copa.
- 1:17:56No. He's Italian.
- 1:17:58He's French too. French throw down.
- 1:18:02Jorge. Mayhem Classic, but he should be
- 1:18:06a Norcal. I would say Norcal Bronislaw it.
- 1:18:13Doesn't even matter. French.
- 1:18:15I'd say mad he. Made it through the I thought he
- 1:18:18made it through French Throwdown.
- 1:18:19No, it was through Wadlin. Are you sure?
- 1:18:23I think so, I don't remember anymore.
- 1:18:29I think it's French throwdown man.
- 1:18:31You want to say French? Yeah.
- 1:18:32Yeah, yeah. Hey let let me after date.
- 1:18:35No Zanoni and Bosshard went through.
- 1:18:38No Zanoni went through online. Yeah, yeah, dude.
- 1:18:40I think it was a Linkowitz man. Oh, that's because nobody was
- 1:18:43there. Isaac Newman, Thorian.
- 1:18:49Yeah. Bill Lakey.
- 1:18:52See, it's your bill. Bill has a good story and
- 1:18:57following now like we're getting into this territory where I'm
- 1:19:00like, somebody should go to Rebel Renegades and do it
- 1:19:04because you can make so much content out of this.
- 1:19:07Maybe it should be somebody more entertaining, but I think like.
- 1:19:12Nate Ackerman goes to Rebel, Renegade.
- 1:19:14No, we. Won't Toby Buckland goes to
- 1:19:18rebel? Yeah, Toby Bucklin Ruin
- 1:19:20Popguider. Why would?
- 1:19:21Toby, go to Rebel. It's where he qualified.
- 1:19:24It's. Where he qualified pop yeah
- 1:19:27Popguider popguider will go to rebel he'll because he's African
- 1:19:32just. Throw him in there.
- 1:19:33If I'm Peter, I'm going to. Far East.
- 1:19:36He's got to do Torian though. I know, but I'd go to Far East.
- 1:19:40I think he goes, he just stays in Torian hopes he can beat
- 1:19:43Isaac and. Bailey, you're just not.
- 1:19:46You're not a shoe in. Bailey, Martin.
- 1:19:48Taurian. Yeah, he's still Taurian.
- 1:19:55The reason I'm reading this is because it's $2.00.
- 1:19:57Excuse me Sir, where is Bruno Marines?
- 1:20:00He is dancing. He didn't make the games last
- 1:20:04year. Yeah, he's out.
- 1:20:06Henrique Moreira went from Copa. Copa, Sure.
- 1:20:11Tiago loses. Copa.
- 1:20:13Sure. No, he's Far East.
- 1:20:15No, he remember, he went, he he's Spanish.
- 1:20:20He went all the way out to far. East that's.
- 1:20:22Right. To qualify, do you think you go
- 1:20:23back? Yeah, I mean, you made it the
- 1:20:25first time. Let's see, Yona.
- 1:20:29I think Yona's going rebel renegade, but y'all think he's
- 1:20:32French throwed around. You put him in there, he's.
- 1:20:34Going French? I already have item twice.
- 1:20:37You're out BKG. French.
- 1:20:41Yeah, he's he's a French. Guy.
- 1:20:42No, he's going. He's going online.
- 1:20:46Oh, Pat. Pat's a syndicate with Jeff.
- 1:20:53Spencer and Saxon. Saxon.
- 1:20:55They're both. They're both Syndicate peoples.
- 1:20:57Oh. Kayeke.
- 1:21:04Copper, Sir. Mr. Hapalinen.
- 1:21:11I think Hapalinen would do better at the Mad Fitness
- 1:21:13Festival than. I'd.
- 1:21:16Agree with that Frank slowdown. Anil, does he stay in his home
- 1:21:20country and go to Spain? For sure, for sure.
- 1:21:24And Nate Ackerman, does he go back to, does he go back to
- 1:21:27Norcal? There's no chance I'm.
- 1:21:29Going back to Norcal. But where would you go?
- 1:21:34Where is Ackerman from? Far East slowdown.
- 1:21:37Far East. He's from like Mississippi, I
- 1:21:40think. He's from Korea.
- 1:21:42Korea. Like.
- 1:21:45The the bats that's. My big thing, like if you are
- 1:21:48somebody like a Nate Ackerman. Just go to far.
- 1:21:52East. Do you consider doing Far East?
- 1:21:55Far East. Yeah, you do.
- 1:21:56You win. Because I mean, look at Mayhem
- 1:21:59Classic because we know more than just Hatfield, Roman Rosama
- 1:22:02are. Going what's?
- 1:22:03What's the worst thing that's going to happen?
- 1:22:05Like Sprague, Pepper and Medeiros may truly just be the
- 1:22:08ones that go to Legends or the three that are doing it.
- 1:22:10But like, Hopper can go because it's a month and a half away.
- 1:22:14Adler could go, you know, like there's a lot that could go to
- 1:22:19Mayhem and then like Colton could go there.
- 1:22:22Jorge can go there. Like anybody that's in Norcal or
- 1:22:25Syndicate can definitely do both, but if you're going to
- 1:22:31Legends you can't. I think you put them in Far East
- 1:22:33man. All right, Nate.
- 1:22:38If Nate wants to get to the games.
- 1:22:41You, you go. You go to the far, you go to
- 1:22:44Asia. And that's where like, you know,
- 1:22:47look at French third down, Harry, Collin, Yona.
- 1:22:54And Nate got really, really lucky with the programming at
- 1:22:57TFX last year and then Norcal as well, right?
- 1:23:02Like it's not gonna be the same stuff.
- 1:23:07I, I think if he goes to Far East, he he get, he makes it, I
- 1:23:12think he makes the games. I know.
- 1:23:14But there are better people in these in the semi finals.
- 1:23:19Now that the online is after all these, there are just a lot
- 1:23:24better people in each one. Yeah, like if you are not a shoe
- 1:23:30and if you're not one of the top ten guys, nothing is guaranteed,
- 1:23:35I don't think. And so like, like, you got to
- 1:23:37look at it, there's at least 10 guys like Smith said, who are
- 1:23:42all going to go to Mayhem or Legends, and there are five of
- 1:23:46those guys that are going to syndicate in Norcal.
- 1:23:50Right. And the rest of you guys?
- 1:23:53And that's all the spots. And you guys have to fight.
- 1:23:55But I mean, between those five, that's all the spots, right?
- 1:24:00And so if you are lucky, you're the best one at a Tudor, Colton,
- 1:24:06Nick, Jorge, Bill, Spencer, Saxon, Ty.
- 1:24:12If you're lucky, you're the best one out of all of those guys,
- 1:24:15and then one of the other five people have to get hurt because
- 1:24:19you're not better than them. And I don't think it makes sense
- 1:24:22for anybody in Europe to come over to the States No 0.
- 1:24:27Unless Ricky or Jay want to do Mayhem, I could see them doing
- 1:24:33Mayhem but still doing Torian as well.
- 1:24:39Dude, if I were good, I would 100% go to Rebel, Renegade or
- 1:24:46Far East, so down and just be like, I'm not going to train
- 1:24:48that hard. I'm still going to beat the shit
- 1:24:50out of everybody. I'm going to call everybody
- 1:24:52stupid for going to the games the hardest way.
- 1:24:55And then like, dude, the fans over there are going to love
- 1:24:58you, dude. So there's.
- 1:25:00Or they're or they're going to be mad that you take one of
- 1:25:02their spots. No dude, they loved Hitler over
- 1:25:07there. They'll be alright.
- 1:25:08Yeah, I think Far East would throw it would welcome somebody
- 1:25:12in, I'm not sure. I think Rebel Renegade games,
- 1:25:14they have a lot of. Little bit of a rebel attitude.
- 1:25:17Well, I think they just have so much like they really want to
- 1:25:20support somebody from Africa going like they want to see
- 1:25:24somebody like a Rouen qualify, right.
- 1:25:30And so some some Yankee dog from, you know, the states going
- 1:25:34over there and taking it. I'm not sure they'd be like
- 1:25:38super excited about it. Some Yankee dog.
- 1:25:40What are we in the freaking Revolutionary War?
- 1:25:43What? Yeah.
- 1:25:48It's wild to me they call us the Yankees.
- 1:25:51It's great baseball team it. Is what it is, all right?
- 1:25:59CJ Rebel won't have an African go this year.
- 1:26:01I mean, you probably argue that Toby wasn't really that either,
- 1:26:05but OK, there you go. I I think it's going to be
- 1:26:09interesting. I think if you are, you have to,
- 1:26:14I think you have to have at least a backup or two in this.
- 1:26:17And I'm really curious to know if there's going to be a lot of
- 1:26:19shuffling around after like the Airborne, like the rosters are
- 1:26:23published. You're going, I don't know,
- 1:26:27maybe I'll go to, maybe I will go to Rebel Renegade.
- 1:26:29Yeah, dude, once the rosters are published, it's going to be
- 1:26:31really, really, really fun. Like how many people say I'm
- 1:26:35out? All right, you can go somewhere
- 1:26:37else, so I think. It is going to be it's.
- 1:26:40Going to be funny if they pull out and then like they're like
- 1:26:42and like enough people. Pull down a bunch of people.
- 1:26:44Pull down you're. Like I'm going to pull back in,
- 1:26:46I'm going to pull back in and then.
- 1:26:48Start playing chicken with who pulls out first I.
- 1:26:51Think you should only allow them to go to 1 because and then and
- 1:26:56then everything will be published later and like at A at
- 1:26:59a certain date, they all publish at the same time and we just see
- 1:27:03and it's like reading your name and seeing you're.
- 1:27:06On the list, you could have enough.
- 1:27:07You could just do a day, a draft for the day, first place in
- 1:27:10quarterfinals, first place in quarterfinals.
- 1:27:13Where are you going? We're all a fan of the draft,
- 1:27:15but I don't think they'll ever do that.
- 1:27:16But the I don't think you should be allowed to do multiple.
- 1:27:19You just do one. If freaking Austin doesn't make
- 1:27:23it or Jason doesn't make it like then you have to do online.
- 1:27:27And if you don't make the online, you don't go that.
- 1:27:32'D be crazy. All right that's it that'd be
- 1:27:36interesting to see just stay tuned to the barbell spin
- 1:27:39because I'll be publishing how to qualify for all of those
- 1:27:43because they all have their unique twist to it.
- 1:27:45All right, it's time for blind rankings.
- 1:27:48Tyler, throw on your frog grips it's makeshift sleep mask.
- 1:27:54Here we go. Sorry, man's asleep.
- 1:27:58I should write Man's asleep on the front.
- 1:28:00Of it, no, we're, we're sponsoring Frog.
- 1:28:01Grips today, Frog grips too. We're.
- 1:28:03Going to have a King Kong bag over your head?
- 1:28:05Extra No. Don't forget King Kong bags
- 1:28:10guys. Did you guys get yours?
- 1:28:12Yes, yes, I did. Yeah, Cool.
- 1:28:14Dude the packaging is wild. Yeah, I don't think it comes for
- 1:28:18everybody. So don't, don't, don't tease
- 1:28:20everybody for that. But yeah, King Kong bags dude.
- 1:28:24Again. Like I've had mine for nine
- 1:28:26years. I've had two of them.
- 1:28:27Just got another one. My wife bought 1 a few months
- 1:28:30ago. They will last forever.
- 1:28:32It's the last one you'll ever need.
- 1:28:33Have you seen Ready Player 1, Tyler?
- 1:28:35Yeah, that's you right now, buddy.
- 1:28:37Somebody sent make sure Sean gets a picture of this.
- 1:28:42Here we go, we are ranking cars. Oh snow, I don't know how my
- 1:28:50hands are going to be for this. Did you know I'm going to have
- 1:28:53opinions on this? Yeah, but I don't know if I can
- 1:28:56get you there. Here we go.
- 1:29:03Yeah, and I. Jeremy World great bags indeed.
- 1:29:07Before we start, I'm going to let everybody, 'cause I know
- 1:29:09Tyler didn't have his, but I'm going to let everybody see this
- 1:29:12and we're not going to say a word that about anything, 'cause
- 1:29:15I refuse to be on the other end. But there's no it's right here.
- 1:29:19There you go. All right.
- 1:29:21First up, John. OK, it's a family car.
- 1:29:29Prius. No, no, no.
- 1:29:31Like the Odyssey? It's not a brand.
- 1:29:34No, it's not a brand. It's not a brand.
- 1:29:36OK. Hey, hey, you get gas at the
- 1:29:38gas. Station wagon.
- 1:29:40OK, Yeah, we go. Got it.
- 1:29:41Let's go, Tyler. Yeah.
- 1:29:44What are we putting station wagon?
- 1:29:46Dude, what year? Five it says.
- 1:29:50It says on their 88. An 88 station wagon.
- 1:29:53Oh my God. I.
- 1:29:54Would say. Five that's is that pre wood
- 1:29:59like them getting? Wood paneling for.
- 1:30:01Sure. Yeah, OK.
- 1:30:02Wood paneling, dude. That's like, that's like a 2.
- 1:30:09What did you rank it, John? Five.
- 1:30:11No man, there are so many better cars dude.
- 1:30:16It's about the enjoyment. Yeah, but you enjoy thinking the
- 1:30:21cars are like women to you. What everybody else likes are
- 1:30:25way different than what you like.
- 1:30:27So good, John. You like some weird looking
- 1:30:31women and weird looking cars man.
- 1:30:35I follow this guy who owns the station wagon, I think it's
- 1:30:39called, I think his name. His handles like Blue Boat or
- 1:30:42something. And he makes the best reels and
- 1:30:45he acts like it's the fucking coolest car of all time.
- 1:30:48And they're so good, dude. It's just such a killer.
- 1:30:52And especially if it has the backward seat.
- 1:30:55Let's meet in the middle at 3 or 4.
- 1:30:57All right, 3. OK.
- 1:30:59Oh man, John's giving in. All right, Station.
- 1:31:01Wagon I knew that was a fight I wasn't going to win, He seemed
- 1:31:04so. Passionate.
- 1:31:05They're just so cool all. Right, Next up all.
- 1:31:10Right. So opposite of dumb.
- 1:31:14Smart Car 5. Yeah, I'm down with five.
- 1:31:18I'm down with five. I I hate how tiny they are.
- 1:31:23And also no car is going to drive itself.
- 1:31:27I will not trust a car that's self driving.
- 1:31:31I'm driving the car. I, I don't trust that for
- 1:31:34anything. Like if we just have cars that
- 1:31:36go by themselves, I'm going to have a car that I'm driving.
- 1:31:41I don't care how old I am. I, it's, it's, I don't believe
- 1:31:44in self driving cars. I don't like.
- 1:31:46I don't like it at all. I have to be in control.
- 1:31:48I, I can't let go of control. I can't do it.
- 1:31:51I don't like it. I'm not into it in any way, in
- 1:31:55any kind of facet. I'm sure people can use their
- 1:31:57imaginations. I got to be in control.
- 1:32:00So like cars are like every vehicle needs to have like a
- 1:32:05soul, a design. Smart cars are literally the
- 1:32:09most basic bullshit. Like even what?
- 1:32:12Who made the pacer? Do you know what I'm talking
- 1:32:14about? Spin.
- 1:32:15Yeah, it's like. A football shaped car.
- 1:32:18It's so ugly but at least it has this weird soul that it has.
- 1:32:23Smart cars are nothing. They're literally the fucking
- 1:32:26car version of a computer. They're the worst five.
- 1:32:31I'm glad we're in agreeance, yeah.
- 1:32:33You guys are agreeing. All right, Next up.
- 1:32:37All right, so whenever you have a baby and you have one of
- 1:32:41these, whenever it gets a little bit older and it wants to be
- 1:32:45held, what does it say? Pick me up, pick up.
- 1:32:49Yeah, keep going. Pick up Chuck.
- 1:32:51Yes. Oh man, we're on it today,
- 1:32:55Tyler. So.
- 1:32:58There's a. There's a wide range 73 so I'm
- 1:33:03going Ford a Ford pickup 70. Three, that's a 73 Chevy pickup.
- 1:33:09Chevy Chevy's OK, Chevy's acceptable.
- 1:33:12I'm going, I'm going one. Oh come on, we can't do one.
- 1:33:16Let's do why? Let's do 2.
- 1:33:19Let's do 2. We're going to get screwed.
- 1:33:21Fine, we'll do 2. Let's do 2 because 73 pickups.
- 1:33:2473 pickups were not nearest. Go to 76 pickups and I let's go
- 1:33:30to all. Right, fine, still great.
- 1:33:34Like cruising around in a pickup, especially 73.
- 1:33:37All right, you got a one and a four left.
- 1:33:40We got we're we're good, dude. We got a bunch of oh, you're not
- 1:33:42going to like this one. OK.
- 1:33:45Hey, Nick Bear, you know who that is?
- 1:33:47No, yes. What type of athlete to see?
- 1:33:50What kind of athlete to see? Never mind, I don't know.
- 1:33:53OK, OK. What kind of athlete is Gee,
- 1:33:56when he says he's training for a marathon, he's a what kind of an
- 1:33:59athlete? He's not a CrossFit athlete.
- 1:34:01He's a. Hey I have a thought stuck in my
- 1:34:05head and I need to go away before I can answer the.
- 1:34:08Question. Sprint.
- 1:34:11No, no, dude. OK.
- 1:34:12It's when you run and you lift. That's it.
- 1:34:15You got two things. You're a what kind of athlete?
- 1:34:18You run and you lift. Strength, power, power all.
- 1:34:22Right. Roll with me, roll with me here.
- 1:34:25OK, Forget. Forget that stuff.
- 1:34:26Forget that stuff. Opposite of low.
- 1:34:29High. Keep going.
- 1:34:35Hi I have no idea. You OK?
- 1:34:40OK, not the groom. But the bride.
- 1:34:43Hi Bride. Hi, take the E off, take the E
- 1:34:46off. Hi bridge.
- 1:34:47Thanks guys. That took a minute.
- 1:34:49That took a minute. We.
- 1:34:51Had to go long. Round, I would say 4.
- 1:34:53I would say 4 all right. You guys.
- 1:34:57Don't get cars I'm hard stay it's cars need to burn dinosaur
- 1:35:03bones all. Right, last one, it's #1.
- 1:35:09OK, a high rocksers Dr. this like a lot OK, but without
- 1:35:16children Teslas OK, no no, no, like they don't have any kids
- 1:35:20and this is the car they're driving.
- 1:35:22One would say the Blueprint fitness guy has this car
- 1:35:25probably. An Astro van.
- 1:35:31Oh, you're you're really close. You're really close.
- 1:35:33It just you know it, it has room minivan.
- 1:35:36Yeah, we got there, we got there.
- 1:35:39We got we got screwed on the list though, because that's
- 1:35:41number one. So we didn't do great with the
- 1:35:43blind ranking pickup truck should have been one.
- 1:35:45You're right. Mini man I that that mini man I
- 1:35:51had going down to syndicate, though, kind of changed my, kind
- 1:35:55of changed my whole. Devon's got children though.
- 1:36:00The minivan was nice. There it is.
- 1:36:04I didn't mean to be mean to anybody there, it's just just
- 1:36:07trying to get Tyler there. It should have went pickup
- 1:36:10truck, station wagon, minivan, a hybrid smart car.
- 1:36:13I, I agree with you. I was waiting in the prelude.
- 1:36:17I thought that was going to be #1 like I was trying to hold out
- 1:36:20for that because I thought he would have had that for you.
- 1:36:22And then I was going to put that number one.
- 1:36:24See, OK, so Astro vans can be really cool.
- 1:36:29Pardon My Take has an Astro van that's killer, but there's also
- 1:36:33like, if I think I'm going to get raped, it's an Astro van.
- 1:36:36Like, particularly an Astro van. Well, there you go.
- 1:36:41That's a. Yeah, OK.
- 1:36:44I'm glad we got through that because I don't know a lot about
- 1:36:48cars, so, yeah. Good job.
- 1:36:50That's why I didn't. I didn't make it too complicated
- 1:36:53on you. Guys, dude, it's it's really
- 1:36:54good when we're not on the same page.
- 1:36:56Like I didn't know if we're ever going to get there on hybrid.
- 1:37:01My hands, My hands aren't near as good but I don't know a lot
- 1:37:03about it but. OK, last thing.
- 1:37:10See where am I? Here we go.
- 1:37:12Last one. Rogue's over.
- 1:37:16Is it now the offseason? To me, this is the beginning of
- 1:37:21the offseason. John, would you consider the
- 1:37:25offseason? Do we need to wait till the
- 1:37:27World Fitness Project finals are over to say you get a month off?
- 1:37:32I I think, yeah, I think most athletes would consider now the
- 1:37:39offseason. I do want to pull up something
- 1:37:45because if you watched Clydesdale, this.
- 1:37:48Afternoon, Jason. If you're still watching, would
- 1:37:50you consider it the offseason? Jason.
- 1:37:54I think Alan would answer yes. It's the offseason, dude.
- 1:37:59It is when? When else would the offseason
- 1:38:02be? After Copenhagen.
- 1:38:06Why is this ringing a bell? Some guy named Corey.
- 1:38:09He comments a lot. Yeah.
- 1:38:11Is it Corey Leonard? Yeah.
- 1:38:14Oh, OK. I did not think he looked like
- 1:38:17that. I didn't either because I've met
- 1:38:20him in person and I didn't. This is not what is coming to
- 1:38:22mind. Yeah.
- 1:38:23I don't know some dude named Corey.
- 1:38:25He looks. Very unbothered.
- 1:38:27Yeah, no. Clydesdale was on with some guy
- 1:38:30named Corey and they were talking about World Fitness
- 1:38:34Project and Justin Kotler decided to pop in.
- 1:38:37I thought it was interesting what his takes were.
- 1:38:39So here's the first one, Justin says.
- 1:38:43Unfortunately, I think the final stage WP will be the least
- 1:38:46prioritized comp of the season. Athletes are ready for a break
- 1:38:50and to be able to focus on next season, that it's just the way
- 1:38:53it is. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:38:55That's a common sense take. Thank you, Mr. Collar.
- 1:39:00Oh, he seemed. He seemed bothered by that
- 1:39:02comment though, didn't he? He was agreeing with it.
- 1:39:07Oh, OK, OK. I just seem like he's like,
- 1:39:08yeah, obviously you're stupid, like.
- 1:39:11No, I think it's just that's how he agrees.
- 1:39:14I have an opinion on this. Let's hear it.
- 1:39:18I think in. In May like he announced that.
- 1:39:23Because there, there are some things like, you know, I really
- 1:39:26don't care about and I just let you guys go the, I think in May
- 1:39:31when I was saying, Hey, guys, like I think we're, I think we
- 1:39:37hate on the world fitness project too much.
- 1:39:38I think, I think, Brian, you, you want to say that you're
- 1:39:43right about this and we get it. And you just, you know, say
- 1:39:45you're right every week and it's old.
- 1:39:49I think now is the appropriate time to take your victory lap.
- 1:39:55And I think then I think then yes.
- 1:39:59And I think then was an inappropriate time because it
- 1:40:03had not hit yet. But now it's true.
- 1:40:07It's like you're saying, guys know I'm right.
- 1:40:09You just have to wait for it. Like I think it's here.
- 1:40:11I'm. Just I'm just, you know, I'm
- 1:40:16covering the sport. But you know what I mean?
- 1:40:18Like in the beginning, you're like, it's way too much.
- 1:40:20Everybody's going to be burnt out.
- 1:40:21Nobody's going to care. You're not going to compete with
- 1:40:23CrossFit because nobody cares. Nobody's going to care.
- 1:40:28And then everybody's, you know, trying to hype it up during this
- 1:40:30time and you're like, guys aren't going to be able to
- 1:40:32adjust their training. People are going to get hurt.
- 1:40:34Emily Rolf may or may not have hurt her elbow.
- 1:40:38Nobody knows. Don't.
- 1:40:39Speculate. Don't speculate, talk about it.
- 1:40:43You know, Dallin got Rabdo and he can't compete like he wants
- 1:40:47to compete. You know, like I think now
- 1:40:52whenever you have a head coach of an athlete who likes to try
- 1:40:56to endorse the new things and new, you know, I think Kotler
- 1:40:59gives everything a really fair shot.
- 1:41:01Kotler loves the WSP. He wants a season.
- 1:41:04He wants. Most no, no.
- 1:41:05And he he wants the point system.
- 1:41:07He's all about it. But what I'm saying when you
- 1:41:08have a coach who's saying people are rundown, I think it's not
- 1:41:14going to be it's not going to be what we wanted it to be, right?
- 1:41:17When you have that kind of a person say that, now you're
- 1:41:24right there. You go.
- 1:41:27Is this this? You understand what I'm saying?
- 1:41:28Like now, it's time. Yeah.
- 1:41:33And then there's. Let's see.
- 1:41:35But what do you do? I mean like if you're WFP, you
- 1:41:38have to do something now. Oh, I don't need think there's
- 1:41:41anything you can do. I think you just try to do the
- 1:41:43best for season. You just try to finish your
- 1:41:45season as best. As you can.
- 1:41:46I mean next season. Go between December and February
- 1:41:52like like that's December and March like that's.
- 1:41:57And I've said that I think they would have gotten been more more
- 1:41:59well received by people like me if it had been in the offseat
- 1:42:04like in the games offseason. The more I think about though, I
- 1:42:09don't think it would work. I think it would work better
- 1:42:13than it is now. I get it, but I think it would
- 1:42:16be the same thing. But you think that because
- 1:42:18people are rundown? I think we would have.
- 1:42:20I think we would have accepted it more and looked forward to it
- 1:42:23more, but come to the same conclusion in February of they
- 1:42:28can't keep doing this like it. The only difference is that
- 1:42:32we've seen it in the middle of the game season with one more
- 1:42:35event that's left. But if they had gone through the
- 1:42:38game season, done SoCal, done Rogue and now it's like I got 3
- 1:42:42competitions the next three months.
- 1:42:46So OK, they. Would be they would be in the
- 1:42:48same, we'd be in the same stop. We'd just be two competitions
- 1:42:50before we realize. That let me caveat the I think I
- 1:42:54think it would be and it should be marketed as such as like, not
- 1:43:00like a fitness league that wants to take over CrossFit, but more
- 1:43:03of this is a fun thing we're doing in the offseason.
- 1:43:07People would take it not as serious.
- 1:43:09You don't have to train as hard and we're just going to compete
- 1:43:11once a month. Nobody's training their face off
- 1:43:15right, and if you are training your face off and you don't do
- 1:43:17the game season, nobody cares because it's not that serious.
- 1:43:21Like if Chandler gets 5th at Rogue, I don't care that he
- 1:43:25beats Jason, right, I'm never going to think Chandler's fitter
- 1:43:29than Jason because Chandler trains for Rogue, right It and
- 1:43:33it would be looked at like that. Not, you know, this major.
- 1:43:38They're like what they want it to be, right?
- 1:43:40It would be more of a this is we're giving people contracts to
- 1:43:45do this. It's not taken as serious, but
- 1:43:48it gives, you know, the people more chances to see the athletes
- 1:43:53and it just wouldn't be as serious.
- 1:43:55The winner at the end, yes, it's awesome.
- 1:43:57Yes, you get money, but it's just another thing.
- 1:44:00It's not this is the fittest man in the world and we're going to
- 1:44:03take over CrossFit. And I think I think it would be
- 1:44:05received that way. Little detour Zane waking up
- 1:44:10Thursday morning has been on the show lately.
- 1:44:12Alive Missed the show, but Grace Walton is a dog.
- 1:44:15It's about to ruin careers. Who's careers?
- 1:44:21All of them. All of them.
- 1:44:23And then I do have one more little comment from Mr. Collar.
- 1:44:29Let's see this one. Here we go.
- 1:44:39Especially after that beat down at Rogue.
- 1:44:41I can tell you the next 5 weeks Alex won't touch a load over
- 1:44:4380%, will run and swim a ton. I would assume both that most
- 1:44:48athletes will do the same. If they are smart, Mr. Cutler,
- 1:44:51yes they will. Jeff's seen.
- 1:44:56And that just means people are burnt.
- 1:44:59And Alex hasn't done the Alex hasn't done anything since May.
- 1:45:03Like she's just been rehabbing. So like I've been.
- 1:45:06Working pretty hard to be good at Rogue though.
- 1:45:08What's? I get it.
- 1:45:09But like not going through the competition strain of it, right?
- 1:45:14Sure. And if that's where she's at?
- 1:45:19Yeah, they're all probably there.
- 1:45:21Yeah, what's nuts is like how obvious this was.
- 1:45:25Like we called this happening way back.
- 1:45:28When it start? When it.
- 1:45:29Started This is not rocket science here, folks.
- 1:45:32Like you can only do CrossFit in the way that we do it right now
- 1:45:38so many times per year. And and the WFP said, guess
- 1:45:42what? CrossFit, we're going to do the
- 1:45:44exact same thing you do. We're going to run semifinals
- 1:45:47all year long. This was totally fucking and
- 1:45:52obvious from the start. And the finals is not just six
- 1:45:55events like it's been, it's going to be 9 no over 4 days.
- 1:45:59They should have done this is you have like niche tests that
- 1:46:04aren't going to kill the athletes.
- 1:46:05And I know like Will said that he was going to do this, but
- 1:46:08it's like you make them more fun, you make them super high
- 1:46:10value. Like you want to go and watch
- 1:46:12their short. They might be a day or a day and
- 1:46:141/2 or something like that, but like they're more entertainment
- 1:46:18value than they are actually fitness driving or even
- 1:46:22balanced. Like they're just fun.
- 1:46:24And then you invite them for your big games thing.
- 1:46:27But you didn't do that. You, you were like, Nah, we're
- 1:46:29just going to run semifinals all year with the best athletes all
- 1:46:33year. You created this situation.
- 1:46:35And so it's like there's only one thing left to do because you
- 1:46:39basically stepped in the CrossFit box and said, we're
- 1:46:42going to take you over. And then you got trampled on.
- 1:46:45So now you just have to pay your way out.
- 1:46:47The only way out of This is Money.
- 1:46:50A shit load of it and I bet you won't do it.
- 1:46:55I don't think it matters. No, it really doesn't.
- 1:46:58I mean, like if they started coming out with $300,000
- 1:47:01contracts, that'd be a situation we'd have to deal with.
- 1:47:04But I mean, yeah, I mean, and, and Clydesdale talked about it
- 1:47:07later, but like you have Sam Quant, he's out now.
- 1:47:12Emma Tall's probably questionable, probably out
- 1:47:14unless she just goes to fulfill a contract like Jeff Adler.
- 1:47:22He's 30th place right now. Whatever prize money he's going
- 1:47:27to get for going to Copenhagen is like nothing.
- 1:47:29Does it reset though in the finals?
- 1:47:32No. So the the the big $75,000 prize
- 1:47:35purse is the season total. OK, right, so first place in the
- 1:47:40entire season gets the 75,000 right, So Jeff Jeff could retain
- 1:47:44his pro card if he goes out there.
- 1:47:46He probably will right if he if he goes and competes, he'll do
- 1:47:49well enough to move up to 20 to 20th place.
- 1:47:53But if he's looking for money, I don't know what 20th place in
- 1:47:56the season gets 5000 bucks. I don't know, like, who cares,
- 1:48:02right? Like.
- 1:48:04Who cares when you're also $300,000?
- 1:48:06Richard, you just made $225,000 at Rogue and got publicized
- 1:48:12everywhere and now it's I'm going to go fight for a pro
- 1:48:17card. Like, I don't know.
- 1:48:22I don't know. So anyway, yeah, I, I think it's
- 1:48:29the offseason. I think it's like, yeah, they
- 1:48:31may do a competition, but it's not going to be there.
- 1:48:35CJ does anyone turn down their pro card next year?
- 1:48:38Can you give your pro card to somebody?
- 1:48:41I would. Like gift it, gift it.
- 1:48:43Can you just give it to me? CJ I'm going to bet more than 10
- 1:48:46people to. That's a hot take.
- 1:48:52It's coming. The mass exodus is coming.
- 1:48:55Just, and I'm just throwing it out there, that's based on
- 1:48:58nothing, I don't know anything. October 7th I.
- 1:49:02Mean it's going to look way different than it was this year.
- 1:49:04I mean, there's probably at least 10 athletes that will turn
- 1:49:08over that are just can't qualify or retiring.
- 1:49:11Yeah. You got throw one in front of
- 1:49:14that zero so. You can run a legends league OK.
- 1:49:19That'll be fun. That'll be fun.
- 1:49:21So now we've got it's November 5th, we got till mid February.
- 1:49:26Vendetta. Vendetta day, Yeah. 3 Three
- 1:49:31months until the open is. That today.
- 1:49:34Remember, Remember the 5th of November.
- 1:49:37I only remember October 7th. That's the only date.
- 1:49:39The only. One I got.
- 1:49:43That's it. Four months?
- 1:49:46No, it's only three months there, CJ.
- 1:49:52I'm thinking the number is definitely not zero.
- 1:49:54Yeah, it's definitely not frigging 0.
- 1:49:56That's right. You put a number on it.
- 1:49:58What did you say? How many decline?
- 1:50:06I would, yeah. How many pull out within the
- 1:50:08next? Well, I think there's a
- 1:50:09difference between accepting it and then not going next year
- 1:50:13versus just saying not no, altogether no.
- 1:50:18How many don't go to Tor Stop 1? Next year.
- 1:50:23That went this year. What is it 20 and 20?
- 1:50:292020, yeah. So out of 40 people, I'm going
- 1:50:31to say 14. Don't go if you have 26 or 14
- 1:50:37new people. Yep. 18 20 I swear I was like.
- 1:50:49We go half. He's going under.
- 1:50:51Yeah, but he hates, he hates them now, so.
- 1:50:55Well, I mean, you've already got like, quant can't qualify, Tall
- 1:50:59probably won't qualify. Bethany Flores can't.
- 1:51:03Hayley Adams is out. I think Jeff won't be there.
- 1:51:08I mean, you've already got 5 right there.
- 1:51:10And those are just the ones that are Hoffers out at six.
- 1:51:16You're 6 without even trying, Brooke.
- 1:51:18Brooke Wells is retiring at 7:00.
- 1:51:22Isn't it funny how, like business doesn't really start
- 1:51:25till you get hit in the mouth? Like you, you can start your,
- 1:51:29you know, say you're opening like a pizza shop, right?
- 1:51:32That cool, We're slinging pizzas, everything's great.
- 1:51:35Everything's going to be fun. And then like, I don't know,
- 1:51:37somebody drives through the front door of your place.
- 1:51:40You're like, oh shit, we don't have money for this.
- 1:51:42That's when business starts. What I want to know is like,
- 1:51:47obviously Haley has withdrawn, Austin has not.
- 1:51:51Austin's still part of it, like not knowing Haley's reason for
- 1:51:55it, but like, is there like talk about like, why aren't you?
- 1:51:59Why don't you want to do it? Why don't you just want to go
- 1:52:01and compete with me? Or go?
- 1:52:02There. Oh, I think there's soccer the
- 1:52:04other way. Well, I mean, that's what I
- 1:52:06mean. Like, well, what?
- 1:52:06Why would you even want to go? Like, what's the point?
- 1:52:08Why don't we just stay here in West Virginia?
- 1:52:11I don't. Think I would be into that.
- 1:52:17West Virginia, Beckley, I mean, they're going to add a whole
- 1:52:23nother event and the athletes already feel like shit.
- 1:52:27Next year, yeah, with a massive outdoor bike race, right, right
- 1:52:32in Mallorca. Dude, there's no, there's no way
- 1:52:36where's it going to fit. You're already looking at like
- 1:52:39the quarterfinal situation. You're like the, you know.
- 1:52:41It's not making sense, Yeah. It's nothing's making sense.
- 1:52:44So you're like, all right, I'm probably just going to say no
- 1:52:48for 30 grand. At best in some cases.
- 1:52:53Yeah, most cases 30 grand I. Don't know it's.
- 1:52:57Not worth it for most folks. Either way, we will.
- 1:53:01We're treating like the offseason.
- 1:53:02We'll wait till we'll see what happens in December.
- 1:53:05I think John is working on a mountain.
- 1:53:07Maybe that'll come out here soon.
- 1:53:10We're ready. There was definitely some
- 1:53:12changes. So maybe, maybe some.

- 1:56:47in it. That's OK.
- 1:56:49My cousin had a hand in it. Yeah, you got to answer it
- 1:56:52truthfully. I don't want to do anything to
- 1:56:54the jeopardize this podcast. You have to answer truthfully.
- 1:56:57Afraid of Truthfully, I don't know who did 9.
- 1:57:01We answered. We, we.
- 1:57:02This is the rule. Go ahead.
- 1:57:05I just know that there is a there is a character on TikTok
- 1:57:12that you can't use anymore because of 911.
- 1:57:16That's probably who did it. And his name is Brian Friend.
- 1:57:19I'm just kidding. I'm just, I'm just kidding.
- 1:57:22I'm just kidding. How do?
- 1:57:25I dance out of this. I don't.
- 1:57:28Know do you think what what ethnicity do you think that it?
- 1:57:36Well. Here I'll guide you what, what,
- 1:57:39what, what ethnicity. Just answer that first and then
- 1:57:41we'll dig a little deeper. I think the ethnicity is
- 1:57:45different than the people who set it up.
- 1:57:47OK, that's oh, that's fair. OK, well who did it?
- 1:57:53Well, what ethnicity did it? Here's the thing.
- 1:57:58Are planes even real? Are planes even real?
- 1:58:01They're real. They're real.
- 1:58:02A plane went down in Louisville yesterday.
- 1:58:04It did, and it had 250,000 gallons of fuel on the plane.
- 1:58:10Explosion was big. 250,000 gallons of anything weighs.
- 1:58:15Yeah, it cost £1.2 million. I'm I'm.
- 1:58:23I'd be willing to bet I like the simulation theory.
- 1:58:26I, I or the the the holographic theory.
- 1:58:29That thing was exploded. No one crashed in the into the
- 1:58:32twin towers. That thing was exploded from the
- 1:58:34inside. Detonation you can't get there
- 1:58:37was so much jet fuel. Yes, or in that it's going to
- 1:58:40melt steel beams. Jet fuel does not melt steel
- 1:58:43beams. Also, if it did, there was not a
- 1:58:44single building collapse in Louisville yesterday.
- 1:58:47So the Arabs did it. Yeah.
- 1:58:51Melody Hodge. Unfortunately, Melanie, that was
- 1:58:55not the first question, so I cannot answer that.
- 1:58:58And I would have if you would have gotten in time, maybe next
- 1:59:01stream you will get in on time. We might do this every other
- 1:59:05stream, I don't know. But unfortunately it I apologize
- 1:59:10to absolutely nobody.
