you can't take me anywhere and expect me to be normal because explain why we went to see the movie "the boys in the boat" for my father-in-law's bday and ever since I've been enraptured by the inherit homoeroticism of the coxswain and the first seat rower

#someone help #I've already played out the whole fic in my mind #the boys in the boat #sorry this isn't about ted lasso whoops #i think all the movie needed was for the coxswain to kiss a boy

Adding on to the list of ‘out of pocket things Bobby has definitely yelled as a coxswain’:

“Quit throwing it back so hard!!”

“You love the pain!”

“You aren’t gonna get bitches with that split!”

“Never back down never what?!”

reading the boys in the boat after obsessively watching the movie is so funny. george clooney i'm fascinated by your many choices. i agree with fewer and fewer of them

#book joe is incredible and endearing. i do not give a shit about movie joe. they forgot to put his personality into the soup... #roger is very different? the whole coach situation....i mean ulbrickson is p good (aside from the age) but ???? #ky ebright......star coxswain ky ebright....and they cast a 6ft guy? #anyway. fascinating read i love it here #the boys in the boat #veni veni

when you become vaguely interested in a new piece of media, think of a plot for a 100k fic, and then decide that it's not worth being emotionally destroyed by

#rie talks #this may or may not be about the boys in the boat movie #the coxswain....... kind of fruity.........

also it is genuinely very sweet how clearly britten wrote pears' musical strengths and interests into the claggart! john claggart! arioso (or whatever you might call that).

#ollie considers #opera tag #billy budd #it is a genuinely very nice scene #and also with the theme everywhere ELSE of Lost On The Infinite Sea #and the duet after it (didn't know what life was 'til now; let me be your coxswain!') #it is very. like. yeah he did really write this with his partner in mind in every way #anyway this concludes brittenposting before i start crying

Chasing the sunrise

The view from the coxswain’s seat is pretty darn sweet

#first time coxing an 8 #didn’t hit any of the 3 available buoys #so I’m going to call that a win #although we almost had a bridge incident because I wedged myself too tight in the seat and got the rubber string stuck without realizing it #but I feel like you’re allowed one near incident that doesn’t become an actual incident in your first 5 minutes as a coxswain #rowing #crew #me #mine #river #sunrise #5/26/23 #1k or bust here we come #row masters or die trying

Ok so I found this absolutely hilarious article from like over 20 years that details the proper way to throw your coxswain into the water after winning a race, as well as gives tips as to how to deal with coxswains who try to resist.

I don’t think Bobby would be the type to force the boys to chase after him, but I know he wouldn’t go down without a fight. Like he’s going to do everything in his power to get at least one of them into the water with him.

Once they’ve thrown him in it’s only fair that they have to help him out, especially in winter when he’s go layer upon layers of clothes weighing him down. But Bobby isn’t going to be the guy who accepts the hand being offered only to pull the oarsman into the water*, that’s just rude and bad etiquette.

EDIT:

I TAKE IT BACK! I TAKE IT BACK!

Once he’s out of the water he chases the boys down to give them wet hugs aka jump onto their backs and cling onto them like a leech stealing their warmth.

Of course, he’s got severe asthma so some days, especially the cold ones, he doesn’t get very far. He’s hunched over breathing heavy and the boys are immediately by his side to see if he’s okay like “shit Bobby, you good???” And then he just shakes his head like a dog or latches onto whoever’s closest because he was totally faking it the whole time. Which probably definitely isn’t fair because some days they never know if he’s joking or not and what if he’s actually not joking?

this is an incredibly niche detail to enjoy about tbitb but hear me out. i have a constant frustration with the way hungarian is spoken in american movies. like. you get a speech coach on your case and you CAN learn to pronounce two sentences i promise. and yet most of the time the "hungarian" lines are incomprehensible. i was fully prepared to hear the hungarian coxswain talk fucking gibberish during the medal race. and no! pleasant surprise of the year he spoke very clear and crisp hungarian. i'm pretty sure they just stuck a native speaker in that boat but i could NOT find the full cast (that included the final eights' rowers) online so i'll never know. still. fun that it wasn't a clusterfuck this once <3

#the first iron man. the chicago movie. many more examples but these are the funniest. AND YET if george clooney did one thing right #it was the hungarian coxswain yelling gyerünk! gyorsabban! for two minutes #hungarian tag #the boys in the boat #veni veni

I've acquired another rich person sport.

#i learned how to ski #for context i do also know how to row/am a coxswain #rey says hey :)

[jondoe-inspiration]

Sometimes I forget that I’m not just a rower but also have medalled as a coxswain multiple times (including Regionals)…

#whoops #nici rambles #like don’t get me wrong rowing has my heart #but apparently I can kick ass as a coxswain too

We row in a boathouse where 2ish thirds are taken by a private school (that we compete against), and though we’re certainly not the poorest of teams, sometimes it’s a bit disheartening when you’re huddled up in your mismatched workout gear with the rest of your team of people who like the sport but certainly are neither innately gifted nor physically built for it, as twenty rich kids who were selected at age twelve for being tall walk past in their matching Lululemon practice gear with their ultra light boats and custom footplates

#they have fancy ergs too #they have dedicated coxswains and coxed fours and they all wear matching visors #none of the girls are my height though >:) #rowing #crew #crewblr
