Two IBJJF Podium diseases


1) Athletes failing to disclose it was a non-adult division titles when posting online. Great you won, just mention it's Master 2 et cetera. You didn't forget to mention the weight class, so call it what it is. It's not the same as winning adult and don't pretend it is. Omission is what it is. 

2) It was only a matter of time before guys and gals closing out started telling themselves they both won first. That's now how that works. You guys wanna handshake it out or flip a coin, whatevs, but you don't get to not fight for the final and say you both won. That's just not how that works. It's already lame for spectators to see athletes not face one another for the final, but to jump on to saying you both won first is....nah buddy. You guys didn't face one another, doesn't mean you both get to say you won.
