I’m done playing tournaments but as I use my phone to run/access medical devices, I’m big on reserving as much battery power for those uses as possible. I don’t think scoring takes up that much battery (though searching for signal in bad reception areas can), but over a two-round tournament, I...
I did not listen to the Upshot interview so I don’t know if that’s what you are referring to, but the fact that Charlie Eisenhood is the leading journalist in disc golf and also a DGPT contract freelancer (correct term?) is a problem, and I say that as someone who generally respects his work and...
I know this would require him to stop believing his own branded BS, but I just want Jeff Spring to quite touting how inclusive the DGPT is. Closer to a hate organization—but whatever gets you through the day, Jeff.
I didn’t know that anyone in disc golf could be as repugnant as Nate Heinold but...
So the real takeaway is that the men’s portion of the tour just goes on as it always would have which very much feels like patriarchy doing patriarchy. And that’s where the insidious nature of patriarchy really crawls to the surface, for it is not trans women that are the threat, but, in fact...
I’m of the belief that stating what disc is being thrown is not the same as promotion even though, hypocritically, I accept that manufacturers and marketers think everything is marketing.
Two different acts of speaking here:
1. “Ricky throwing an orbit Felon here on Hole 9.”
2. “Wow, Ricky...
I don’t watch DGN anymore but, were I too, being provided more pertinent information, such as the disc a competitor is throwing, about the competiton that is occurring instead of less would constitute, for me, value and an improved viewing experience.
The issue of endemic sponsorship within a...
Ah yes, the great liberal/centrist construction of respectful that equates with performing niceties so to not disrupt profit. It’s a respectful transphobic targeting of one player, right?
They passed a ruling targeting one player because the YouTube comments were a public record of who was tuning in and were bad for business, so resorting to another desperate strategy makes sense. I just want them to own their trash.
Whenever I read phrases like “either side” or “both sides” I wonder what the actual sides are. We’re all just in two camps, right, on each individual “political” issue? You for or you against? But what exactly are you for or are you against?
(Not actually asking.)
My first faculty job was at an institution that made major financial decisions off of what was actually a significant outlier year. Nothing like making year-after-year projections and major capital investments off of unrepeatable returns. Never struck me as sound financial decision making, lol...
It would be unfair to criticize the PDGA for poor communication. First, they never **** anything up. Second, they were rightfully busy during the off-season targeting one single member. It was a full-time job.
I’m not sure if it was inexplicable but it was a moment where what the pro did felt other worldly to a 890-rated am.
2019 Delaware Disc Golf Challenge. Ricky on Hole 8 in R2 at Iron Hill. 2nd shot from left side of fairway somewhat pinched, Ricky throws what Eagle calls on coverage a “wide...
I really value consistency of the product when choosing a BBQ joint. Important that they manufacture the meat to spec on a consistent basis. The best grill masters know how to account for differences in cooking variables.
It’s funny to me that people are wondering how long it will take Simon to learn new discs when he is an expert disc manipulator, at a higher level than most pros. He makes disc do things. He will be plenty fine.
