USA making a strong bid for global newaza supremacy.

Now tied for third in the medal count with Italy. Who would have though the top four would, at this point, be Japan/Russia/Italy/US? The first two, sure, but the Italian/American rise, no.
 
I've been watching Olympic Judo since 2008 and this is by far my favorite.
 
Praise be to JUST BLEED God!

All hail the newly anointed Saint Kayla of Harrison our Lady of Olympic Gold!
 
I'm not Murican myself, but congratulation to Kayla Harrison;

You mean when you take a lapel grip and use the leverage to crank the elbow down into the center of their chest, while pulling up on the sleeve with your free arm, like a total dick version of knee-on-belly?

If so, I agree, it's most glorious, particularly for use on n3wbs when you claim it's just normal rolling and they need to toughen up.

That's the one. That's my girl.
 
Damnit I missed the finals. Glad to see Kayla took gold, though.
 
Home judo Team failed to bring medals this year.
I guess now its up to the Wrestling Team to represent.
 
Tcheumeo: "I'll put that arm straight out there, I'm sure nothing bad will happen to it"
its the game. you pull down on the arm to resist the choke. if choker stops putting pressure on the neck, you end up straightening your own arm unless you're very used to/sensitive to the change in pressure and have the instinct to play the game
 
so, finally caught some women's matches today....

Overall, visual dynamic product going on, longer Newaza is boss....

However, seems Shidos thrown like hotcakes....Maybe Just because I like to do counter judo game....but in finals it was called under 1 minute........hell I am just feeling the other person out waiting to counter their over anxious attempt. I like watching JU, Mifune throw defense. Hate myself when I just Gorilla stiff arm too much

but it does seem people spamming half hearted throw attempts, drop seo's etc even when not setup perfect and their not getting hips in near far enough because have not beaten the stiff arms yet.

Seems like lots of subs we like, but were the throws that did score Ippon, were they like perfect technique throws? Not sure how this all scoring, no koka anymore and all that working out.

Thoughts?


I am into OG Judo, and can not keep up with the constant rule changes....can some knowledgeable peeps tell me if this choke I think I came up with, is it not perfect to go to when someone spamming drop Seo's like the American Gold was doing? Like this is a legit technique Judo peeps should drill right?

Also, what r rules now for playing with Lapel pulled out is it kinda how long or how much u seem trying to use it? Can you pull it out urself beginning of match, or by 2nd time they warn u or what, because it seems they were allowing it....

Remember tapping to a purple doing this to me when I was a whitebelt and just desperately defending in side. "Hey, a tap is a tap"
 
So, I'm looking to follow the action tomorrow morning. Anyone to look out for, other Riner of course?

Not even. Today's like like going to the state fair: you're either gawking at the fatties or marveling at their disappointment for expecting anything different.

Today's the day where a bunch of fatties get to go home and say "I was an Olympian," kinda like the girls that were competing against Simone and Aly: you might as well hope they just don't show up.

I mean yeah, it's Judo so there's a bit more chance for catastrophe, but if anything's the catastrophe it's seeing people this fucking slopping masquerading as sportsmen.
 
Is this on TV anywhere? Quarterfinals are about to start.

You were so wrong. These fatties and big gurls are putting on one heck of a showing. Plus the ippons go THUD!
