It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I played beer league rugby, there was pretty frequently beer on the field or at least the sidelines. And the losing team had to pay for the keg.

That's all well and good, but I'm talking at a professional level. Televised, competitive league play, doctors ensuring a certain blood alcohol, cholesterol and lung damage level for all competitors. They should do back to back games where teams need to play another game hungover early the next morning. Really put these guys through it.

Isn't that just any professional sport before 1990? I remember watching a youtube doc about sports nutrition, and a former player from the 80's was telling that his "warm up" meal before a football game was 2 hotdogs and a cherry coke.

That's just Nikola Jokic before he got in shape
