Cut and paste from the other site…
I have some time kill and feel compelled to get this out before next session…
My text convo with max after his first match after telling him I’ve never felt better after a 9-0 first period tech…
Max’s body is breaking down on him now and he turned 21 in march…
Watching JB and DT doing the same thing at their age and visibly improving on recent performances…
Throw Kikinniou at 82kg Greco who is in his early-mid 40’s…
Max’s opponent Ildar mid 30’s…
Then contrast it with Blaze who is a legit 17 years old…
All that too say…
All the respect in the world to anyone competing at this level and that respect just grows to anyone who can manage the complexities of maintaining that edge for years and years…
It’s a bananas concept to think you are the best on this planet at what you do and to maintain that mentality for a real meaningful time is not even fathomable for most…
Aight…
I’m jumping off my soap box while I wait ever so patiently for next session…
@LJB I want to say I'm glad you made the move over here after the OG died. I'm not on the knock off site and I would miss all of your updates and posts. Know they don't fall on deaf ears and they're appreciated
