  1. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Well, let the experts continue to tell us that we have no clue what we are talking about and they have the only correct understanding of legal issues.

    Not edited but here are some marches from the event on Sunday. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1xHYZmEaJtThhN4-RYDiBmbYOado6nS8&si=3QruJQC4cS8Nn9IC
  3. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    So I have played on Monday last week, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and today. The first time i have plaued on seven straight days in years for sure. And almost immediately, I am seeing my level come back before my eyes. The movement is a huge part of it but just as...
  4. 2024 USA Table Tennis Nationals in Huntsville, Alabama!

    Couldn't make it, too much family stuff this year.
  5. Asian Youth Championships 2024

    So one of the Korean boys impressively beat the man child Ruibo Wen. Convincingly too. And it wasn't Junsung Oh, but one of the lefties.
  6. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    A couple of things: none of us were at the proceedings (unless you were and are just saying you were not to protect some confidentiality). A lot of what you claim about the motives of the people and how things went down is plausible but is ultimately speculative. I am convinced by it, but the...
  7. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    This is exactly the kind of post that is offensive - someone making a lot of noise about how ignorant other people are without addressing anything substantive. What about the "act" that Dubina performed made it harmful? Which act is he being convicted of? In fact, the question of whether he...
  8. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Yep, I was compliant as a coach/umpire a few years ago and will return to compliance shortly. It's part of the reason why looking at the whole thing, any accusation itself is hard to make stick if the accused took Safesport compliance seriously.
  9. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    The thing is that with a plea deal, there is no new police report so to speak. We are all smart enough to read between the lines, but the problem is that the need to read between the lines will not help people who are just taking things mostly at face value. Though since I am going through...

    There really should be a separate thread for the Asian Juniors, that one of the Korean junior lefties beat Ruibo Wen is very impressive.
  11. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Sure. So if people do not know that the justice system is deeply flawed or do not agree with you that it is deeply flawed or they think it is flawed for different reasons from you, that is all about being obtuse? And since according to you, the charge that Dubina pleaded guilty to is far more...
  12. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    The fact that you consider it obtuseness is part of the problem. You agree that he is legally not considered a sex offender but yet you would continue to say that he is guilty of a sexual offense and the newspaper is right to report it as such Who is obtuse for accepting that contradiction, you...
  13. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Then why not find him guilty of the original charges to make it fully transparent that he is a sex offender? Why the plea deal? What does that prove since that specific accusation has nothing about sex tied to it and the details are opaque? And since the police report is related to a crime...
  14. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    So as I have said before and posted in previous videos, we have a few fellow African players in Dallas. We are hosting a tournament in August on the 31st in Austin and are hoping players of all stripes will attend. We are working on bringing in an international player as well (Quadri was taken...

    No distinctions in the first press reports. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/tennis/summit-county-coach-pleads-guilty-to-sex-crimes-against-a-female-teenager/ar-BB1pdhB7 EDIT: As pointed out and in the editor's note, the article has been edited to reflect the charge Dubina pleaded guilty to.
  17. WTT Contender Tunis 2024 6/25-6/30

    Yeah, the eternal disappointment. No basis for believing he is the best non-CNT player of the past decade (more accurately, seven years).
  18. Is D09c bad for brush-looping?

    To be honest the whole brush looping question confuses me. I just try to use a rubber until it works. How it works is often a mystery to me though I sometimes like to think I know. The one thing is that D09c is definitely more bouncy than Hurricane and most Chinese rubbers and even most ESN...
  19. Is D09c bad for brush-looping?

    He has used 09c on both sides multiple times and currently does. The German team tends to get to consensus on these things.
  20. WTT Star Contender Bangkok 2024 July 2-7

    I guess they just have to hope the draw works in their favor. Without the second seed, it is 50-50.
