I’m even more impressed with what DK metcalf did last year against legit sprinter than what hill did against scrubs

We can agree he is really fast in the same way that Boston college has a good basketball team.

A high schooler ran 6.59 today in Boston. 4 high schoolers broke 6.70 in Boston in the final and semi final.

Does Boston college have a good basketball team? Well nowhere as good as the Celtics, but better than most every high school team?

I mean, he’s as close to the world record as Boston college is to being the top basketball team in the NCAA.

There are literally 100 guys faster in that event this year in the NCAA alone, there are a dozen who are faster than him in High School this year alone.

His time wouldn’t put him top 200 in the world this year. He has access to better strength and conditioning professionals, nutritionists, recovery experts, etc than anyone in that top 200. This isn’t an issue of needing more races or practice. He would need to start by losing about 30lbs, then racing for 4-5 years, and then MAYBE he is one of the top 20 in the world.

The “record”? Zero chance.

Because 5 percent of 6.7 is the difference between kids who will never see a dollar in college scholarship and people who make the Olympic final.

Because they are literal fed ex delivery men. The masters championship you just… sign up. Anyone can. You can if you want.

His time wouldn’t put him in the top 100 of NCAA athletes just this year, and 3 kids in high school ran faster than him yesterday in a single meet in Boston.

I miss the orange chicken from Shanghai on Thayer st. Those were the days

Some people just want to rage

Oh I’m not sure? I honestly don’t know personally. My friends played there a bunch, but that was all pre-Covid, so maybe they have changed it.

AS220 is always looking for groups that play original music

Hey OP-

Elmhurst crew checking in. If you can find the right pocket, this neighborhood is a gem.

Yeah, bought a house in elmhurst annnnnd

IM NOT FUCKING LEAVING

I second this. Elmhurst is excellent and exploding with new young families

WWman is floridaman confirmed

Yeah if you are comfortable with people going to the local market in their pajama pants when it’s 90 degrees out and thinking it’s socially acceptable… then yeah you will be fine. It’s not “dangerous” for 95 percent of WW, and I would say half of it is standard suburbia

I grew up there- it’s fine.

Like any place, there are pockets that are nice, and there are pockets I wouldn’t want to live in. Generally speaking, it can be a little trashy. Schools are below average. It’s lower-middle class.

But is it awful? No.

If I had to move back into my parents neighborhood and raise my kids, I would be perfectly content to be there. It totally depends on what neighborhood.
