  1. 2018 World Junior U18 TT Championships

    Guys no need to argue too hard, I think you both made great points.
  2. Goat meat nutrition

    Fat and cholesterol are good for you so I am not sure why you are running away from them. They only cause issues when high amounts of sugar are present in the blood to damage blood vessels and oxidize lipoproteins.
  3. Service grip conflicts with my FH/BH loop grip

    That's the bottom line - these kinds of changes do hurt for a while but are necessary when you want to squeeze everything out of your game.
  4. 2018 World Junior U18 TT Championships

    Xiang Peng is really young (15 years old or so). Uda does have his work cut out vs Xu, who is a team B CNT prospect if I remember rightly.
  5. 2018 World Junior U18 TT Championships

    The point is definitely worth watching. https://youtu.be/PEnQUwStTyE?t=13242
  6. 2018 World Junior U18 TT Championships

    Looks like US will have 2 ladies in the main draw. 3 boys as well.
  7. Guestimate the Ratings

    Both players are national team players and the one nearer the camera is a legend (Karakasevic). It was likely a practice match. But the quality and consistency of serve and serve return is generally amazing though the approach in a tournament/league match would be likely sharper. In my...

    Nicholas Tio had no chance but the other Americans seem capable of winning their groups and making the main draw.
  9. Best FH in the world at the moment?

    Another way to evaluate forehand quality is how well a player does vs defenders. Again, Xu Xin does very well. Of course so do Fan and Ma. Same for Boll. LJK I need to review. Of course, Harimoto not so much at the moment.
  10. Best FH in the world at the moment?

    Best strokes, Ma Long and Fan Zhendong - it's a coin toss these days. Of course, from a completely different perspective, Timo Boll is still a legend. Best absolute forehand, Xu Xin. Nothing like it as his doubles play shows.
  11. 2018 World Junior U18 TT Championships

    The US had a terrible draw for both men and women. Its quite possible that no other team will take a match off China. Very sad.
  12. Guestimate the Ratings

    The other guy is a tournament/league player and is easily over 2500 and more likely over 2650. I believe though I am not sure that his last name is Jetvocic or something similar. In any case, my point was that it is easy to lose context when you don't know what you are watching. But the...

  14. Guestimate the Ratings

    Yes. Its quite obvious why I am answering you the way I am but you seem to miss the point.
  15. Guestimate the Ratings

    I don't know who the players are, I am just asking for brokenball to estimate their ratings.
  16. Guestimate the Ratings

    There is a difference between the way a player plays when he plays 1) an opponent he feels threatened by and there is money at stake 2) an opponent he feels threatened by and there is no money at stake 3) an opponent he doesn't feel threatened by and he is in the mood to practice (this will...
  17. Guestimate the Ratings

    What are these guys rated, brokenball? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkjYtvfbeQA
  18. Guestimate the Ratings

    The video is not misleading at all - it really comes down to what you are looking for and which points you use to estimate the players. In my view, both players are easily over 2200. THey are clearly doing or trying to do things that players below that level don't do. They are very familiar...
