Hey @utahjazz I don't think I'm alone in saying I'd much rather watch the team try to win and only win 25 games than tank for the 5th pick. The @NBA getting harder to keep an interest in.

I won't say negligence but I will say poor programming and 100% avoidable. 800m is not a short distance to swim in a pool, let alone in open water after a 20+ minute threshold effort in the heat. And to top it off, no one saw him go down. Hard to believe, really. RIP Lazar.

TW- someone died at the Crossfit Games. This is negligence, and not by a little. One of the main reasons you keep the swimming portion of an event first, is because exhausted runners can just walk.

@Sethgolfs @Deantree3 @CrossFitGames ...and let's not forget these guys aren't triathletes. Amazing, incredibly fit athletes? Yes. Swimmers? Not really. Hindsight is 20/20 but it just seems silly. Not to mention the heat. Anyways, my heart goes out to Lazar's family. This really sucks.

@Deantree3 @CrossFitGames The event itself is no more dangerous than anything else involving water. You may have a point with the safety measures or lack of, but villifying the event itself is not an educated take. People unfortunately have issues like this somewhat regularly in triathlons.

@Sethgolfs @Deantree3 @CrossFitGames Swimming in open water is hard. Swimming 800m in open water is really hard. Swimming 800m in open water while trying to get your breath after a 20+ minute run @ threshold is absurd. There's a reason the leg that is most likely to kill you comes before the others in triathlon.

@bowman_eth @beau_z91 @ryanfyvie This. They literally talked about the heat and the impact it has when operating at threshold whilst running. Oh, and then, let's throw some folk that are.not.swimmers* into open fucking water! Lunacy! *Athletes, yes. Swimmers, not so much.

That's what I'm saying!!! Like make them swim first not run, exhaust your legs and lungs... THEN go to open water and go fast to try to get the most points.. Straight up stupid planning on their end. They only had people with freakin paddle boards and only a few. Straight negligence.

Not the start to the CrossFit Games anyone wanted. Lazar allegedly missing. You can see Lazar struggling in the stream screenshot 1, then gone in 2 and 3 with safety kayaks close by. Sending prayers for all involved. [This is getting traction quickly, please note that until there’s an official statement, this is only speculation - CrossFit have removed the stream after I got these screenshots] #crossfit #crossfitgames

If there's a better sight than Brad Scott looking bemused in the coach's box, I don't know if I can handle it. #AFLBombersFreo

Bont giving Nick Daicos a good old fashioned clinic in the 4th. I don't love Bont but I love to see anyone give the pies a bath. #AFLPiesDogs

If you use Caps Lock instead of Shift for single capitals when typing, we're not mates.

Can the @AFL have a yarn with the umps? Yeah, ok, we get it, without them, there's no game but fuck me, they don't need to be the headline every game. #AFLFreoPies

Hear me out: A world where we get a grandstand finish to a game without an umpire trying to make it all about them 🤷‍♂️ #AFLDogsSwans

@NoLayingUp Zach Johnson telling the gallery to "Fuck Off" after a triple bogie is very relatable* and will be tough to beat as my Masters moment for 2024! Credit to the coverage for the effects mics, There's been some good gets. *I don't play in front of galleries.
