people are delusional if they think that lawrence will let go of his own son. don’t try and bring the show “succession” into this bc it has nothing to do with lance and lawrence’s father-son relationship.

we have seen first hand how much lawrence stroll loves his children and would do anything for them. i’m sure if my parents or other people’s parents were as rich as the stroll family, they too would buy you things and get you places you desire.

lance will probably stay with aston until he believes that he’s finished with f1 but i doubt that will happen anytime soon. he will keep racing.

people fail to see this though and assume just because he races poorly at times. like i have said before, lance could finish p20 every race if he felt that good about his seat and not give a shit about f1. but it’s clear lance cares about racing and is trying to improve.

the media and fans will always paint him out as a villain who’s biggest crime is having a father who loves him.

Adaptive / Para sports that aren't wheelchair basketball!

Wheelchair rugby: very physical, wheelchairs look like battel bots, very rough and very cool I don't know much about the rules of regular rugby either. Tried it once was not for me but very epic to watch

Adaptive curling: played with a stick that attaches to the curling rock so you can play from a seated or standing position, good for those who can't bend over or who require mobility aids

Wheelchair tenis: played just like normal tennis in a sports wheelchair rackets have shorter handles to be easier to push while holding, difference to the rules being that the ball can bounce twice

Adaptive archery: so many different adaptions from shooting in a wheelchair, using prosthetics, mouth release triggers for those without use or with lim differences in arms

Adaptive skiing/snowboarding: good for those with lower lim differences and mobility issues. Adaptions include using one leg with outriggers to balance and stear (both ski and snowboard) sit ski, where your entire lower body is basically in a ski boot, can be used for blind people as well or those with upper body limitations with an assistant controlling the sit ski. Independent sit ski use outriggers for stearing (think like ski poles with little skis on them)

Adaptive rowing: good for all ability levels as well as blind and visually impaired. So many different adaptions for loading into boats, seating supports, adaptive paddles and auditory cues

Adaptive swiming: this has so many different options, swimming is amazing for you it let's you use you body in different ways then weight bearing and there are a lot of options, different flotation devices that can attach to legs or arms, having someone move your lims for you, having a tap signal when you get close to the edge of the pool, visual cues for time, pool lifts just so many different options for everyone

Biking: standing bikes, two seated bikes so people with vision problems can have someone stearing, electric bikes, electric assist with pedaling, strap in pedals, anti tips, tricycles, hand cycles, different levels of seating support, walking bikes, you can ride behind someone in a bike, lots of university's will have indoor bike tracks so that you can ride on flat low resistance ground

Para hockey: this is my sport, I play competitively so I know a lot more about it. Para hockey (also know as sledge hockey) is played sitting down in something called a sledge. You have two sticks with spikes on the ends in order to propel yourself on the ice. There are a bunch of modifications possible for sleds with high back support with straps for those without core control, for those with upper body limitations there are pushers who attach a push handle to the back of your sled in order to move you around the ice, if you have no grip strength you can tape or otherwise secure you sticks to your arms/prosthetic. Rules for para hockey are the same as for stand up hockey with the exceptions being, periodes are 15 minutes and there is an additional type of penalty called Teeing for purposful front of sled contact to another persons sled without angling. Rules wise in grassroots (basic introductory sledge) anyone can play no matter their ability so abled family and friends can join you. Above the intermediate competitive level however, all players must have an impairment that affects their lower body in a way that means they do not have the capacity to play stand up hockey even at a lower level.

Blind hockey: Blind hockey is played pretty much the same as regular hockey, all players have a severe visual impairment/blindness and it is played with a large hollow puck that jingles so players know where it is

Anyone feel free to add more! There are so many different ways to have fun and be active as a disabled person the first step is just learning that they exist!

Friendly reminder the WNBA players get paid more than what they're worth already

I’m curious if you live near your favorite team. If you consider yourself a local fan, however you want to define that. I know that many ppl on here are fans of teams that aren’t near them/in their community and I’m curious at that ratio. To me, my teams are something that I love because they’re near me/were near where I grew up. I’ve got friends who move frequently and they pick up a new team in every city while still being loyal to their old teams.

I was thinking about the Yotes being forced to move but also the As leaving Oakland. To me teams are so tied to their location and community that the idea of losing one of my teams is physically painful. Location matters, at least to me, idk about anyone else.
