I mean we’ve been bad since that Super Bowl. Went 9-7 with Trevor Siemian the year after then Kubiak left and it’s been bad QBs, coaches, and rosters since then.

Let's see who's desperate or stupid enough to sign him.

Yeah the Russell Wilson debacle is a lighthearted way to say Denver sold its soul and throw some jabs at broncos fans. This is just depressing

I hope he learned to speak Japanese during his time off, because that’s what league he’s headed to.

This sport is crazy, sometimes you leave the arena and hit it back through the door back in

The Instagram post his family put out said he was diagnosed in August.

That's such an unfortunate genetic trait. There's a larger chance you get protected from malaria, but there's a lesser chance you also get sickle cell. Fucking brutal. Out of curiosity does having the allele twice provide stronger protection against malaria, the same level, less or none at all?

I’m more surprised that it was an unanimous decision

Playing in very cold but dry conditions is better than wet conditions imo. The ball bounces unexpectedly due to the glass being a frozen sheet of ice however it atleast bounces.
A freshly opened can of balls helps however you can just toss them in the training basket after 1 session due to them getting soft and soggy.

Yeah, really deep lobs suck in rain, but most are OK. I hare hard balls against glass more as they slide down, especially with 2 glasses you’re toast. Also deep, hard serves are problematic.
It was also funny to see the WPT players at the tournament in Knokke in Belgium… at the sight of the slightest drop of rain they stop and head inside.
Our padel trainer in Spain was just today complaining about the humidity in the evening and the effect on the glass… so we had to tell him that that in Belgium still counts as quasi perfect conditions.
We’ve also played with -7 degrees which was interesting to say the least. Even a freshly opened can of balls didn’t help… new balls had the bounce of old ones in that temperature.

Didn't the women signed a salary guarantee while the men gambled and ended with more? End of the day, they don't sell tickets like the men's game. Women's Soccer Championship aren't in the same league as the World Cup.

Playing in the rain requires a different tactic. Balls dont bounce as much. Playing deep lobs are killer during the rain. Hard to look up with rain falling in your eyes and you cant allow it to bounce as it will fall dead after hitting the glass.
