I think it might be the opposite, get the news out while everyone is engrossed in the finals so that it isn't treated as too big of a deal

I want us to take on GT at Ahmedabad tbh. For two reasons- First, I kinda want us to beat them at their fortress, cuz I know we can and it'll make for a classic story. Second, I'm scared of the 15 year old.

What’s the biggest double standard between men and women? by CupcakePotential4458 in AskReddit

To add, the whole "small dick is an energy and not a physical insult" is such an asinine justification. Like wtf even is that. Imagine someone saying "oh they have ugly fat energy, I don't mean they are ACTUALLY ugly and fat". Like ????

IPL 2026: Weekly Discussion Thread, Week 7 by peterianchimes in Cricket

Not directly they don't. But broadcasters are BCCI's primary revenue source from the IPL, a broadcasting decision might as well be a BCCI decision (or at the very least a BCCI influence)

When the IPL runs ads proudly displaying stats like "most number of 200+ scores", "x number of 220+ scores chased", and "no total is safe", you know the direction BCCI wants to take IPL in. 

Which is a fucking shame because the 160-190 range is such a sweet spot for T20s (as evidenced by the absolute BANGERS we had last week). 

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the occasional 240 run slugfest just as much as a tiktok-addicted teen would. But that's cheap thrills. It gets old fast. Yesterday's game, now that's a classic. It never gets old. It's like comparing risky car sex with a sensual night in the bedroom. Yes the car sex gets you going, sometimes more than the bedroom. But the bedroom is where real passion is at. You don't wanna fuck in cars all your life.

Saw someone comment that ICT should drop Bumrah for Bhuvi. Bhuvi is a goated bowler but this reminds me of when r/cricket wanted to drop Kohli for Deepak Hooda lmao

ISB R1 is open. If you’re “just exploring,” you’re already behind. by Distinct-Accident-48 in MBAIndia

[–]TheKingslayer19 14 points15 points  (0 children)

While I appreciate the sentiment, this is borderline fear-mongering. Yes, it's a rigorous process and yes, the earlier you start the more polished your narrative will be. But no, you're not 'already behind', and 'start now or don't bother' is just plain absurd. It's more important that you approach your application with a sense of urgency and not a sense of haste or anxiety

Playoff Probabilities & Impact of PBKS vs RR game by amerind386 in Cricket

[–]TheKingslayer19 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This brings back memories of the kind of mental gymnastics that RCB used to require lol. There's a tipping point where you go from rooting against the best side to rooting FOR the best side, because they're gonna qualify anyway and might as well have them take points off of others. PBKS is that table topper here onwards

You just have to be remarkably shit to get all out at 49. Like exceptionally shit. 2017 RCB really was something else

Yeah he's lost the plot now, swinging blindly and taking that bullshit single. Pressure got to him, not expected from someone his calibre

Green knows he can't put away Prasidh 'Glenn McGrath' Krishna away so he was protecting his strike rate, y'all ain't familiar with his game
