    Sumo is actually pretty badass to watch if like me you have severe ADHD. The matches and hype are both lightning quick. I was watching one time and this little 240 pound dude was wrecking people's shit but it was a good mix of fatass body types. 

    Wish it was on more

    CSB: As an added bonus to my dad being stationed in Hawaii when I was young, the big Sumo tournaments were broadcast locally.  They tournaments are bi-monthly and the wrestlers do a fight a night for 2 weeks round robin style.  We loved watching it.  This was when the 2 badass Americans were wrecking shop:  Akebono and Konishiki.

  2. So inevitably with the 2024 draft under way, there are now mock drafts for 2025 coming out.  Mock drafts are a silly distraction even a few days before a draft but mock drafts a year out are downright comical.  Example:  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2025-nfl-mock-draft-shedeur-sanders-travis-hunter-the-top-two-picks-cowboys-take-qb-to-replace-dak-prescott/

    Besides the fact that this man has Shedeur Sanders going 1st overall.  He has Princely Umanmielen going 12th just ahead of Quinn Ewers.  

    Then he goes on to mock Evan Stewart at 21, Kelvin Banks 22, (Lmao) Denver fucking Harris at 23!  

    But get this.  This fucking hack still lists Evan Stewart - Texas A&M and Denver Harris - LSU.

    They called him "the Poly Whisperer" as far back as when he was at USC. It's a stupid nickname and not nearly as cool as Johnny Patron but he has historically killed it in that demo. Yes, I absolutely 100% expect Texas to see a major uptick in Polynesian recruiting.

    Look at these names:

    3rd on that list:  Roland Jones II

    The guy who played the bad guy in the worst Star Trek movie made (so far)?

    He’s like 7 years older than Cavill.  No thanks.

    Holy shit.  I had to look this up to see if it's true.  I had no idea he was in a Star Trek movie.  I never watched that one.

  5. I watched the first 2 episodes that were released today.  I really enjoyed them.  I didn't watch the 1980 version so I have no basis of comparison to it.  The "Anjin" actor I felt did well.  He seems like he is trying to be Tom Hardy.  Hiroyuki Sanada is great as always.  Looking forward to the rest of the show.

    I used to love Command and Conquer and Herzog Zwei but stopped playing video games for a long time….but I’m back!

    I have a PS5 and was wondering if anyone had recommendations of games like those?

    TIA

    I've not played these myself but you can try out Iron Harvest and Company of Heroes 3.  They are both in the Command and Conquer style.  Iron Harvest looks to be an alternate history of WW1 where humans have developed mechs.  Company of Heroes 3 is a WW2 game.

    hahah at Williams comment 
     

    "After Coach [Holmon] Wiggins leaving, it was already hard, because it's my position coach," Williams said. "But you can always find another position coach. "

    Is he thought to be a first year starter or someone who needs a couple years of conditioning/training, since he graduated HS early?

    Some consider him the best wr prospect since Julio Jones.
