We also bring you Breaking News, Human Interest Stories and report on the Methodology of CrossFit. We also use the methodology to make ourselves the fittest we can be.
What's going on, everybody?
Welcome to the Clyde Zone
Media Roundtable.
Yes, the song says we're in the zone now,
but Amy isn't in that much of a zone.
She has not been smoking weed.
She just has some dilated
pupils from an accident.
I went to the eye doctor
because I'm hoping,
I went for a consult for
LASIK eye surgery,
and I haven't been able to
wake up and see since I was in,
let me guess, third grade.
So the fact that I could
possibly wake up and see
this weekend is amazing.
So I had my consult and so
they dilated my eyes.
And so now I'm just stuck between this,
what am I doing?
Do I wear glasses?
Do I wear, I can't see.
So that's what's happening with my eyes.
And if people don't know,
you wear thick glasses.
I have bad vision, yeah.
Yeah.
The first time we went
somewhere together and I
saw you pull out the glasses, I was like,
damn.
Yes.
But the good news is I was
approved to be a candidate.
So I just got to talk over
financials with the hubby.
And that always goes smooth
with Banker Scott.
Yeah,
he's he's really good at keeping us
on a tight budget.
So I'm looking at long term.
Let's look at the long term cost.
You know.
Maybe he doesn't want you to
see him better.
Wouldn't that be funny?
He's like, no, we're going to keep these.
I've been running this scam
for 20 some years now.
Last thing I need is you to
be able to see me.
That's all right.
So you were on vacation last week.
I was.
And you had a birthday.
I did.
I'm 46 now.
And I went to Fort Myers, Florida,
and I dropped in five times at a gym.
Nice.
Yeah.
Was it a nice gym?
It was really nice.
It was air-conditioned.
In Florida, you don't must have to.
Yeah,
but I have friends that live in Texas
and they don't have Eric.
but it was, um, it was, we did, um,
it was height CrossFit and
I really enjoyed it.
It was like a great group of people,
you know, I felt right at ease.
Um, and w they did proven programming and,
uh, it was nice to be able to like,
just try out different programming and,
um, and all that.
But it was also just, like I said,
five times,
but like to be able to keep my
like routine and on that.
Cause I just went with a friend, um,
who is a non CrossFitter.
So,
to be able to, you know,
keep that routine.
Corey Leonard says air conditioned.
What kind of bougie gym was that?
You know,
it's funny that he said that
because that's exactly what
they said when I was like,
cause you guys are so lucky
of air conditioning.
And they were like, well, we're bougie.
We wouldn't be able to do it without it.
Yeah, she is.
Yeah.
She just called me right
before this to get her
shopping listed for BJ's
before I come home this weekend.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
But speaking of birthdays,
Charlie's is Thursday.
Yeah.
You know how I know that?
And that's why we're going
to my mom's house this weekend.
We're all meeting there.
That makes, that makes sense.
How old is she going to be?
23 or four?
23.
Okay.
Wow.
Yeah.
Hard to believe.
I know.
And just live in the adult life.
Before we move on to kids,
one last thing about the air conditioner.
Okay, sorry.
Did you happen to watch
Hiller's video with Ricky
and Alex in Vegas?
I did.
Did you see the contraption
Alex has in her garage to
keep her cool in Vegas?
Yes.
That like cools water and
then it puts it into the
fan and then into the air.
Yeah.
Like wouldn't an air
conditioner just be cheaper?
I was wondering that, but.
It was massive.
yeah it was massive and it
was interesting like just
how ricky was talking about
how hot it is and with the
pool like that you have to
fill it up every day like
not all the way but you
know add water to it yeah
um the video like really
made me fall in love with ricky
I know.
I was hoping we were going
to talk about that today
because I really enjoyed it.
And actually,
Charlie and I were talking
about this morning and I
was saying that I think
Hiller does such a great
job of getting people to
open up and to talk.
You know what I mean?
And you have to have that
personality to be able to
do that because I can
imagine sitting on a couch
with him and him asking me
a question and me answering
basically anything he would
ask because it would feel
just like you're just
chumming with a bud.
Yeah.
I've always found that when
we did interviews in person,
it was much easier to get
in those questions than
when you're doing it online.
For sure.
You have to work much harder.
Yeah.
And he just,
he has the capability to be
able to go and spend the day,
which is awesome.
Lex says you've never heard
of a swamp cooler the
closest thing I've come to
that is at Disney World
when they have the misters
throughout the park that's
as close as I've come to
that I have no idea what
that is Hiller has great
videos he just is a douche sometimes
Um, but yeah, the Rick,
the Ricky thing that made
me fall in love because I'm a parent,
right.
Is playing with the kids in the pool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That just, that totally won me over.
Had nothing to do with his
athleticism or anything like that.
But the way he was playing
with Ivy in the pool, um, was just,
was like, man,
I want to root for him now.
I'll tell you what was making me laugh,
but I enjoyed it because it
was just being himself.
He kept farting.
And they would be like, did you just fart?
No, it was the dog.
Made me laugh.
You've never heard of a
swamp cooler either, Charlie?
No.
Yeah.
You like the heat though, right?
Over the snow for sure.
Yeah, he got the rain odds.
Yeah, I don't mess with that.
Cold weather.
I'd get out of Ohio if I could.
You could.
You know, it's a choice.
It's a choice for some of us.
I just don't happen to be
the one able to make that choice.
Got it.
i wanted to share a couple
pictures before we move on
and that is uh sunday night
we talked about the trends
of og crossfit wear and amy
shared her pictures today
and that is amy at her
first competition it is
look at those sunglasses
too look I was wearing
styles are they gucci no
you don't even know me
those are like tj maxx special
It has that Gucci look on the side.
I was like,
I know she's not wearing Gucci.
I was definitely not.
It was whatever TJ Maxx.
Probably somebody else's glasses.
There's a little tiny Nate Radowski.
There was a little Shmoopy.
Look at that below the hip crease.
I'm getting a truck down there now.
He is too.
He's a little.
L1 coach.
Rocking the world, man.
It's true.
I don't know who that cameraman is.
Oh, yeah.
Look at that cameraman.
He's got his knee sleeves
down around his ankles.
I wonder what he was doing beforehand.
Protecting those ankles when
he trips over a dumbbell.
Listen,
you were wearing a lot of gear in
your comp photo.
Uh, I was a gear whore back in the day.
No.
What, what is your,
what is your most used piece of gear?
Shoes, not included now.
Yeah.
Now we'll hardly use anything.
Um,
I would say wrist straps is
probably the most used.
Yeah, I agree.
I never wore a belt back then.
Never.
And now I wear a belt if I'm
lifting heavy.
But that's about it.
And then I do have grips if
I'm doing anything on a barter.
Yeah.
I'm a no grips kind of girl,
even though everyone tells
me I should be.
I'm just not.
Amy, yours is this weight vest, right?
Excuse me.
He's poking at me being heavier,
saying it's that extra weight vest.
I didn't say that.
You just assumed that that's what I meant.
It's okay.
We're back to fighting.
Even on your birthday,
we're going to fight.
Oh,
did you know we were fighting on my
birthday?
Scott, Charlie and I were fighting.
You want to know why?
He did not wish me happy birthday.
But then I did.
Then he did.
So now I'm not going to wish
him happy birthday on his
birthday until a while later.
Airwave.
We have those.
Don't we have those, Scott?
Yeah, I actually wear mine all the time.
It helps so much with my asthma.
Does it help?
It really, really does.
It pulls my tongue forward
if you use it correctly.
Charlie just didn't read the instructions.
He just thought it was like
a football mouthpiece from 1987.
I'm just hanging outside of
my helmet and just wearing it.
Yeah.
Like the kids do these days.
They do.
I love the football players
that wear two mouthpieces
on their helmets.
It's like just switch during the game.
Well, I want green for this play.
But then they don't put either in.
That's weird.
does the airway work as a
mouth guard too yes okay
yeah I'm always hitting my
chin with the bar yeah and
it it stops the teeth from
clanging together well I
definitely like grind my
teeth and clench my jaw all
the time and they told me I
should wear a mouth guard
So it goes on the bottom
teeth and there's a bar that goes across.
It's a plastic bar,
but if you put your tongue under there,
it works really well.
Because then it pulls your
tongue forward and your
airway is then bigger.
Okay.
That sounded nasty.
But yeah,
so I do use that one probably the most.
Mm-hmm.
Um, and I probably need a new one.
Mine's a couple of years old.
So we had one of them worth the games.
We had like the original
frowning ones of them.
Yeah.
The mayhem like first.
Yeah.
1.0 version 1.0.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Didn't you guys get those at the game?
So several years ago.
Yeah.
I thought so.
Okay.
I got them.
I even bought one for Charlie.
Charlie didn't go to that games.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah, you were there.
I was just a good friend.
We shared with Cheryl.
Yeah.
And the rain came in the window.
Yeah.
But it almost came in the
window another year after that.
Yeah.
There's always a freaking...
hurricane, whatever.
Yeah.
So did you guys see that
Dave Castro finished off 79 interviews?
I did.
I did.
I was purging a bunch of
yesterday while I was folding laundry.
Did you catch the Daniel
Brandon hour long version?
No.
What, what was up with that?
Because he was trying to keep them all,
you know, short.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I didn't, but it's on my list to catch up.
Velner got 30.
Yeah, I did see Velner have 30.
And Danielle Brandon got a
full hour and they recapped
her whole career.
Wow.
So I have some friends that
may be in the chat who
believe that he really loves Danielle.
You think she's taking Brooke's place?
and top of his so when I
listened to brooks I was
more uncomfortable than
when I listened to daniels
okay yeah um so I think
he's still more infatuated
with brook than danielle
but brook only got 15
minutes well she was the
first one um I was
surprised he got out of
there in like 10 minutes with fikowski
Yeah.
It was everybody but Pat and Danielle.
But I didn't hate the
interview with Danielle.
I thought there were some
good parts with that and
they talked about some things.
But again,
it was more of like a full-on
podcast than what he's been
doing with everybody else.
So Lex says they were both
similar in his smittenness.
the brook one made me feel
uncomfortable the danielle
one did not maybe because
he didn't it was shorter
but I was listening to
danielle's at 1.5 speed oh
my god away the smittenness
aspect for me five speed
1.5 oh as I said I was like
how do you hear that
That's the only way you're
getting through an hour,
trying to get through everything.
Don't give that to us.
Yeah.
There are some people that
talk so slow in this space
that the 1.5 actually
improves the podcast for me.
But yeah.
But I can't honestly believe
he got through all 70.
I am so impressed, really.
I love it.
I love it.
So did you guys happen to
see Pat Vellner on Savant today?
Because they talked about
all of this stuff and like,
should he be doing it?
Should he be connected to the athletes?
And it was,
it was really interesting to
hear Pat's take.
What was his, what was his take?
He thinks he needs,
he definitely needs to be more connected.
The fact that he doesn't
know who the up and coming stars are is,
is not good for the sport.
at like not knowing that
Emma Lawson took third not
knowing or second not
knowing that Alex who Alex
Kazan is yeah like those
are up-and-coming people in
your sport and you should
at least have a familiarity
of the face to a
performance he also thinks
that Dave needs to
look at other competitions
and mistakes that were made
to not make those mistakes in the future.
And Dave's response to Pat
in his interview was, well,
I need to like get away
from it and detox from CrossFit.
And we make enough of our
own mistakes that I can learn from those.
And Pat's response in this
interview today was, well,
how about we be proactive
and not make the mistakes
in the first place by
learning from others?
Mm-hmm.
And at some point you want
to do your job better.
Yeah.
Once you try to learn from others.
And I, I love that Pat is just,
he just says it.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Who are you telling to Charlie?
A little kid.
Charlie, you talking to me?
He's like, keep it down.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I think that Pat is the
elder statesman of CrossFit
and has really embraced the
get off my lawn character.
He's in that era, isn't he?
But he has a lot of good
things to say in that.
If you just listen to him,
I think it's really good.
But that was a short one today.
It was only 30 minutes.
And if you listen to that at
one and a half speed, man,
you're done real fast.
Carolyn said Pat isn't
sucking up like a lot of
the other athletes do he
says what's on his mind Yes
true So I but it's it's a
good it's a good half hour
if you want to just listen
to that as part of this Yeah,
and one and a half speed is
perfect for that I'm sure
you talked about on Sunday,
but what did you what do
you think about the jumbo and
I thought is I thought of
you because they're
inflatable paddle boards.
And I know that's what you have.
I do.
But I was looking at that.
I'm like, Oh my gosh.
Like, where do you put that?
But there's a big one in a little one.
Why?
So we don't even know which
one they're using, but it's team.
I would think the big one.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know what the plan is there.
I think they're just showing
the little one to show you
a comparison how massive that is.
That's what she said.
We did talk about how it was
Sam Dancer and Jared
Stevens who are two of the
biggest men in CrossFit,
and they probably need the
big one just to fit.
Okay, yeah.
But I'm excited for paddle
boards to come back out.
Yeah, I hope they do it.
I hope they use it in an
interesting way that makes sense.
Sure.
Yeah.
So did you see the happy star?
Yes.
Yeah.
And what did it say?
What was the weight that somebody was,
I think, Wad Zombie or somebody noticed?
So Barbell Spins zoomed in
on it and said 170 lb.
Yeah.
And even his week in review
said that is not the weight.
Okay.
Okay.
That he doesn't know what
those numbers are there for,
but that is not what the weight is.
Okay.
And in the week in review,
he also said the 1600 was a
run for the first time.
Yes, I did hear that.
All along,
it's just been rest 1,600 meters.
Okay.
Yesterday in the weekend review,
he called it a run.
Okay.
So little tidbits here and there.
As for the paddle boards,
Carolyn says those look fun.
Dave has always said he
didn't want to program
paddle boards because it's
too much of an advantage.
For people who know how to use them,
however, it's bog programming,
so maybe it's okay.
Yeah.
But isn't that also part of me?
I don't understand that part.
Like, what do you mean?
It's too much of an
advantage for people who
know how to use them.
Like they're paddleboard.
Right.
Okay.
But w they,
we always have to learn a new
implement or do something new.
Like some people might be
really strong swimmers
because they've been swimming forever,
but others just have to do
that workout anyways, you know?
Yeah.
I think, yeah, Dave's big into this,
like what's a skill and
what's like fitness.
Yeah.
And I think he believes that
stand up and this is him.
This is a stand up
powerboarding is a skill, not fitness.
Okay.
I see what you're saying, Carolyn,
about how people having
advantages to open water versus pool.
But I guess what I would say though,
a standup paddleboard is
you are testing also balance,
which is one of our 10
general preparedness skills.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It doesn't bother me either way.
I'm just saying what he would say.
I've watched a lot of
reality TV too where their
competitions are rowing
something or paddling something.
How many people just can't
even keep their boat
paddleboard canoe straight?
There is some technique to
keeping everything moving
in a straight direction.
What if a shark bites your
inflatable paddleboard?
Probably not a problem in the lake.
Yeah, you're probably fine.
And those inflatable paddleboard, I mean,
they are very thick.
It's not just, you know,
like your raft that you get
at the Walmart or something.
Okay, an alligator.
That's all Lake Placid.
Yeah, it could be an alligator in there,
but they say there's not.
But there are snakes.
Oh, stop it.
Oh, we didn't say that yet, Lex.
I'm so glad you brought this up.
Did you guys all work that today?
Well, Charlie and I did.
I know that for sure.
I have not yet.
You have not yet?
As in you will be?
Yeah.
Okay, good.
I'll do something tonight.
Here's what Charlie and I did.
this is my normal workout time.
So on Tuesday,
I can't work out until after work.
Charlie and I, Charlie,
did you do independence today?
Yes.
Okay.
So it was 10 box jump overs,
then 30 toes to bar, run 200 meters,
then 20 box jump overs, then
No, 15 box jump overs.
25.
15, 25.
Okay.
Well, I don't remember.
Well,
you increased your number of toes to bar.
And decreased your box jumps.
And you decreased your box
jumps for four total rounds.
And I liked it.
And a 200 in the middle.
Yeah.
Um, okay, here we go.
10 box jump overs, 30 toes to bar,
run 200 meters, 15 box jump overs,
20 toes to bar, run 200,
20 box jump overs, 15 toes to bar,
run 200 meters.
I messed something up.
No, I didn't.
Okay.
30 box jump overs, 10 toes to bar,
run 200 meters.
Uh, we, so I, Lex, we always use, um,
mayhem, uh,
Scott and Kat were using Ibex, I believe.
Is that right?
Correct.
Okay.
My workout today is done by Cheryl,
though.
Okay.
And it's accumulating 100
calories on the assault bike.
with like three minute
intervals of 15 front
squats and so many pushups.
I couldn't find it real quick there,
but yeah.
And then every three minutes,
max calories on the bike
till you accumulate a hundred.
I was going to say, is it,
you're talking about the
workout Cheryl was supposed to give me?
Cheryl's supposed to give you a workout.
She was going to.
Oh, shoot.
Charlie does everything.
That's right.
IBEX.
Proven.
EMOM.
Got them all.
Masters.
I could start a library.
You could.
I hope an osmosis just gets
it all into the system if
you just hold it.
Don't do the work.
Do the work.
Put your head down.
Get to work.
He does all the trial periods,
but for one day.
You might get two or three.
Weren't you going to try... Yep.
The answer is yes.
Josh Bridges.
It's on the menu.
Okay.
Charlie is the poster boy
for program jumping.
You got to find stuff that fits.
Or you could just stay with
one thing even if it's not
your favorite and just keep
doing it for results.
I got the same with nutrition coaches too.
I got like six different macro patterns.
Yeah.
That's the key to success.
You'll hit one of them every day.
You got to keep the body guessing.
He's like,
can we just do a mix and match
programming of everything?
Keep the body guessing.
Never get bored that way.
I hit my macros today.
Macro five today.
Macro three tomorrow.
Yep.
On my carb cycle next week.
After you intermittent fast.
Yep.
Do a little throwback to the zone.
Yeah.
I love it.
What do they call it?
Muscle confusion?
That's right.
Nutrition confusion.
I mean, it's confusion, all right.
I'm just pretty much confused.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So one last CrossFit question,
and that is at the games,
events have been announced,
and a lot of them have running.
Yeah.
Now, granted,
it's only two workouts and then Chad,
but very leg-dominant events.
Thoughts on where we're at
right now with the programming?
Are we hoping for something gymnastics?
Of course it will.
I mean, this is the test of fitness.
It's going to be an overall good test.
This is just what we know right now.
I'm not worried about it
being a fair test.
I think we're going to find
out that Bergeron is
actually programming.
I know for a fact that's not.
All this running is just.
That would be, he was more bike.
We ran all the time.
Did we?
It was awful.
Tristan says,
Dave has always been a big
leg volume guy.
Yeah, I just hope it's not.
I hope with the Happy Star
introduction that it's not
just running on the football field,
that it's like my dream is
strongman's fear,
that it is a couple big
apparatus you have to move
down the field and sprint
or handstand walk or whatever in between.
Yeah.
And then I'm fine with the
1600 being an all-out test.
I'm for sure.
I'm feeling like there's
definitely going to be some
handstand walk on turf.
I mean, I just,
I feel like that's going to happen.
I think you need a sprint or hurdles.
Oh, they did.
Who was he talking?
Oh,
Brooke about hurdles on Dave and Brooke.
We're talking about doing hurdles, but
I have an inappropriate response,
but I'm going to go with the,
didn't she do that in college?
She was a hurdler.
She talked about it.
Yeah.
But said she was remembering
how in the games that they
were penalized for it.
And she goes, that's not how it really is.
And, and track,
like you are allowed to hit
the hurdles and they can fall over.
Yeah.
It slows you down.
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah, I'd be okay with the old sprint,
you know, zigzag hurdle,
the Dan Bailey catch the
sunglasses event.
Yes, I'd love that.
Like I'd be cool with
something like that on the
football field.
Yeah.
But that happy start does
not show that unless you're
carrying that for the 1600
meters or part of the 1600,
like one lap without, one lap with.
It wouldn't be.
I could see it be the whole
one if they were going to do it.
There's no way.
There is way.
It would be wrecked.
I don't know.
Yeah.
It's three words.
Speed, clean, ladder.
I don't see that on the field.
Yeah.
I think that's their time to
get some odd objects out
there that they couldn't do inside.
You could do the speed clean
ladder inside.
Sure.
What's the one EZ knocked himself out?
Oh, it was a snatch ladder.
Snatch ladder.
I didn't know if you were
talking about the swim event or... No,
that was excellent use of a paddleboard,
though.
You know what?
Yeah.
I don't even think it was.
Was it a paddleboard or was it?
Oh, I don't know.
Oh,
there was a point where he was laying
on a paddleboard like wrist flipping.
Yeah.
Straight survival now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Now in the snatch letter,
he did wake up and finish.
He probably had a concussion after,
but it's better.
So.
Excited to see if he
replicates that at the
Masters games this year.
Yeah.
They got a snatch ladder in it?
I don't know events have
been announced for that.
Sneaky.
The one I did want to talk about,
I'm heading to the games next Wednesday.
Is it that soon?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Next Wednesday,
Mark from Thick Boy is going to be there,
but not as a booth.
He's there to support the
age group CrossFit Games,
so the teens and the masters,
to help promote the games
from their booth.
He's going to be there.
Okay.
So if you're at the games
and you want to meet Mark from thick boy,
that's where he'll be.
He's a great guy to hang out with.
Make sure you go over and see him there.
I'll try to be hanging out
around there a little bit too,
as we're doing the behind
the scenes for the masters
CrossFit games.
Super excited about that.
And after we interview Emily Rolfe today,
that will be the last elite
games athlete we're interviewing.
And then we're moving into
masters athletes.
And I've already reached out to a handful,
just trying to get everybody scheduled.
Those masters athletes,
they work full-time jobs, kids.
It's a little bit harder to
schedule than your elite athletes.
Yeah, for sure.
So you'll start seeing those
pop up here and there
throughout the weeks going ahead.
But I'm heading to
Pennsylvania this weekend
to celebrate my daughter's birthday.
That is going to be fun.
Yeah, twin.
Yeah.
Charlie's going somewhere.
I'll be in California.
Why?
To a wedding.
Okay.
What part?
Northern?
Southern?
Pasadena,
which I will be dropping into a gym.
And doing someone else's program.
I want proof.
You know whose gym is there?
Who?
Becca Voigt.
Which one does she go to?
She owns, you mean?
Yeah.
Training yard?
I don't know.
Let's see if it's close to me.
Maybe I'll show up.
So I was bummed because when
we were in Pasadena last year,
we went to another gym and
then I found out Becca's
was like two blocks away.
and it would have been cool
to drop in there because
they have like an indoor
outdoor type thing um so
yeah that so check it out I
mean pasadena is not that
big you have to look for it
what's it calling in
training yard training yard
crossfit training yard
And you'll get some level three coaching.
She's a level three.
I got all the level three
coaching I need in my life.
I know you do, don't you?
What do you think about all
these athletes like asking
for level threes, level fours from Dave?
I haven't seen any of that.
So tell me more about that.
Oh, like Victoria Campos.
She got a free L1,
L2 last year at the games.
Okay.
She has an L3,
so she asked if she could get an L4.
And Dave said yes and said,
just contact me.
And he wanted to talk to her
about being part of seminar staff.
All you got to do is ask for stuff.
You never know.
Yeah.
like it's a different Dave
Castro it's the more
personal Dave Castro that
we know is like a volunteer
than what you've seen
before so yeah so Wadzombie
says that Becca's is far
from Pasadena but I mean it
was right by the gym we
were going to so and it wasn't a far Uber
And speaking of Wild Zombie,
get your wax packs.
Oh.
Now wax pack cards just like
you got in 1982.
Pulled them out of the box, got excited.
Who am I going to get?
And?
You open it up and you see.
Who was yours?
What did you get?
So you get five cards in a pack.
Yeah.
Yeah.
five or six uh and I think
nick um made sure I got one
of each in my two packs
that's good yeah I got them
all but super awesome and
it's so much fun because
even because I didn't know
he did that and I still was
excited to see who the
cards were well I'll get
some when there is a con
porter one I'll meet all of
them I'll make a special one for you
with those swimsuits of him and James.
I'm fine with it.
I am fine with it.
Little boys.
Amy's gym already has all
the cons Porter stickers all over it.
It's all over.
Does he still do CrossFit?
Hello.
He's a team athlete with Emily DeRoy,
Newberry, Car Saunders,
Oh, yeah, that team.
Just that team.
Team, you know, down under.
All right, guys.
Well, we put out our list of 40 athletes,
Carolyn and Jamie and I.
Got our first athlete to
respond to the list today.
And?
Was not positive.
Okay.
Were they mean?
So I love when that happens.
yeah were they mean or just
like you know talking a
little bit it was uh just
they said whelp that was
not a positive reaction to
where they were placed got
it they want to smoke tell
them do better yeah well
let's not talk crap to
people that we want to talk
to and interview I will okay
Well, when you're a rookie at the games,
where do I place you?
I don't know what you've done before.
I don't know what you're going to do.
Yeah.
Prove us wrong.
When you change camps six
weeks before the games,
is that a positive move or
a negative move?
I know who it is now.
So... All those things got
to be taken into consideration.
You're right.
They do.
So anyway...
And you can't make everybody happy.
Someone's got to be in the bottom 10.
That's true.
That's the thing with lists.
Somebody's always left off
and somebody's always mad.
Yeah.
What's funny, Amy,
last week you weren't here
and we talked all dude stuff.
Oh, did you?
Like all football stuff,
stuff that you always make
us like stop talking about
to get back to.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Who's the best wide receiver?
Somebody's going to be mad.
Oh.
Mm-hmm.
People say it's not.
Big Ten Media Day starts today.
Great.
You're not excited for the
football season?
No, I am.
It's fine.
I just know when that happens.
It's literally every day
there's something on TV
that people in my house need to watch,
and it means I get less attention.
Fox added Friday nights.
Mm-hmm.
And in the immortal words of Sean Woodland,
you don't know how good you
have to be to suck at the CrossFit Games.
Ain't that the truth?
Yeah.
Being in the top 40 in the
world is pretty freaking amazing.
Yes.
Just to make it, I mean,
is pretty freaking amazing.
And this person was not ranked 40th.
Because that was reserved
for Andrea Pinheiro.
And as...
As John Young said in our
chat Sunday night, trend doesn't float.
If you get the semis, that's impressive.
Yes.
Hey,
some of us might think if you get to
quarters, that's impressive.
I'll be impressed if Corey
beats me in anything.
Well, so far he has been.
He's done nothing of the sort.
being the top 40 in the
world is kind of a big deal
it comes with many leather
bound books all right well
