$25 a day is a rip job. It is crossfit. You aren't watching big time college or pro athletes. And someone don't feel the need to argue the level of the athletes there. Don't care, $50 bucks is just too much.
Russsell - you referenced crossfit to "other professional sporting events" - not a sport buddy sorry, its training. There is a difference. Don't get carried away.
Smitty,
How is CrossFit NOT a sport? It is competitive and requires endurance, stamina, flexibility, strength, speed, power, agility, coordination, balance, and accuracy. Sports such as football, soccer, tennis, basketball, track and field, etc., etc., require most, if not all of these ten physical skills/domains including CF, and each is competitive in nature. Just because CF events are not featured on your T.V.'s ESPN channel (yet) does not mean that CF is not a sport. CF is in its infancy, but it is growing into something huge and I think many can agree with me on that. It is just too great to too many people to not continue to grow. Your comment to Russell that it is, "not a sport buddy, sorry, its training," is your opinion, and it can be just training to some... or just a way to burn calories, or just a way to LGN, but I hate to break it to you,... buddy... to many of us it is a sport, and a damn great one at that. I am sorry you're missing out on an amazing sport and the comraderie that goes with it.
A novice is someone who keeps asking himself if he is a novice. An intermediate is someone who is sick of training with weak people and an advanced person doesn't give a shit anymore. - Jim Wendler
