The 2016 CrossFit Regionals season is over, and while we’re sad to see it go, we’re not going to miss the ridiculous commentary in the YouTube live chat. It’s baffling to us that the same people, for three weekends, have dedicated literally hours a day to being an asshole. Go outside! Experience life! Pee into the wind!
For every one witty comment, there’s another 50 intelligible comments about butts, steroids, and why CrossFit isn’t a sport. But when that one comment makes its way through, it’s glorious…GLORIOUS! We live for the entertainment after watching the same workout 24 times.
As usual, all comments are left in their poorly constructed, spelling-riddled form. Screen names are there so everyone knows who the comments belong to. This week, we’ve added a few of our own comments in bold…because, well, why not?

Clete Lewis this is dumb, why don’t that have plates of food at the finish?
That’s a great question, Clete Lewis. We’d definitely go faster if you dangled a doughnut at the finish line.
dale clarke Only white dudes participate in this sport because it requires no real athleticism ,just wild,fast crappy reps with rubber weight,dangerous exercises and huge egos with socks up to their knees
We asked Chandler Smith how he felt about dale clarke’s assessment:
“Dale is tripping like nobody’s business. I got my butt kicked by 150 white dudes during the Open and another group of them killed me at Regionals, and I consider myself a good athlete. There’s a number of factors that go into why there doesn’t seem to be a bunch of minorities in the sport, but that doesn’t detract from the athletic abilities of folks at the top of the sport.”
And the socks? Smith says, “I’m all for high socks. We call those ‘motivated socks’ in the army. Internet tough guys come a lot tougher than this Dale character. He needs to bring it harder next time, lol.”
Andrew Zaro Women should not be muscular
