  • Not all athletes have the same needs though. I don’t doubt a marathon runner would need to drink a lot of water , though I doubt even they’d need 2.5 gallons, but does a professional golfer?

    I’d argue a quarter back is more similar to the golfer. They aren’t training for speed or stamina, they’re training their fine motor skills and some strength to be able to throw far and throw accurately. If you look at the quarter back on the side line they usually aren’t dripping with sweat like a lot of the other positions are.



  • Idk, one of the articles references two high school football players who died from over hydration. Didn’t say how much they drank but it does go to show that you can over hydrate even with a lot of exercise.

    Also he’s the quarter back, does he actually do that much strenuous exercise? Yeah he probably has to do some sprints to remain agile but he doesn’t need to run that fast or for that long, he just needs to make quick decisions under pressure and throw well. He’s not a marathon runner or anything like that.





  • Wouldn’t this just mean no one’s a male or a female. I get that we develop female characteristics first in utero, then go to male if the y chromosome is there in most situations, but thats later on. At conception, the only cells you’re producing are undifferentiated stem cells, not reproductive cells.

    So trump just abolished gender?



  • Implying that the Democrats are now “the party of big business” is arguably true (and very boring)

    While true in some scenarios, in anti-trust Lina khan’s ftc has done significantly more than trump ever did. Biden keeping her over the protest of countless business execs and daily articles in the wall street journal on how she’s ruining America shows some commitment to prosecuting big tech.

    Meanwhile, trump’s anti-trust moves were mostly based off petty issues he had with the ceos or the platforms having a “liberal bias”. Now that every big tech ceo has fallen in line and given him $1 million for his inauguration I doubt we’ll see much movement on that front.
