  1. WTT Star Contender Bangkok 2024 July 2-7

    There really should be a separate thread for the Asian Juniors, that one of the Korean junior lefties beat Ruibo Wen is very impressive.
  2. 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...
  3. 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...
  4. 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...
  5. 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...

    Craig Bryant on social media. Follow him for sure and watch his YouTube videos.
  7. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    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.
  8. 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).
  9. 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...
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. WTT Star Contender Bangkok 2024 July 2-7

    You mean second? I believe they are already third. To have a chance of being second, I think so but I haven't followed the details so others may know better.
  13. WTT Star Contender Bangkok 2024 July 2-7

    Looks like Hayata pulled out as well.
  14. Super alc

    I got an 84g Viscaria SALC. Forgot to ask about the FZD SALC and I do like the Viscaria handle anyways. Will put on some Chinese rubbers and take it for a spin sometime.
  15. What is the meaning of CONTROL in a game?

    It is a great question. As someone who started out using Japanese/European bouncy rubbers like Rozena and later ended up being more comfortable with Chinese sticky rubbers, I had to accept that all equipment has tradeoffs. Part of what I wrote about about controlling the ball is that you need...
  16. What is the meaning of CONTROL in a game?

    Lots of great stuff on this thread. Kopp, When someone tells you to play with more control, as a few have already said including yourself, what they mean is that you are probably taking too much risk with a focus on speed and power and losing your consistency and potentially placement...
  17. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    The motives presented while plausible are speculative. Since the plea deal keeps details private, we know he was found guilty of something but what he is guilty of is as opaque to me as it is to you. And what he wanted kept hidden (and you can assume it is not just him but others involved in...
  18. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    He is guilty of something. The question is what? Harming a minor? Pushing her over the stairs? I have no doubt that everyone can form their own intelligent opinions on what happened. But what exactly he is guilty of here has been left to the imagination. If it wasn't you would have a good...
  19. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    What were the details of this assault? What specific harm or injury did he cause the victim? Let's remember, you can bring guilty of pushing someone to get a first degree assault charge. Most people would just call him a mean person and move on.
  20. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    If that is your interpretation sure. But he was not found guilty of this in a court of law. So you are entitled to your rabid speculation.
