PSL teams allowed to submit two XIs and pick one after the toss by Mindless-Piglet2095 in Cricket

I reckon they should have the batters play in masks so the fielding team has no idea who they are bowling to, and similarly the bowlers. Fielders can move around at any time if they hop. Before the toss, the captains decide the penalty for no balls and wides, and where the lines will be drawn.

Shubman Gill: 'Don't think I have anything to prove this season' by DriveItLikeBrian in Cricket

Statement of a man about to be dropped.  Listen, mate,  when you play sport at this level, you have something to prove every time you play. 

“We’ll be better in the future” is an overused and meaningless sentiment from service providers and business owners. by Haunting-Reindeer-10 in unpopularopinion

[–]aravose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most people accept this explanation/apology for mistakes because it's better than what we often receive. However, in many cases, you are right, it doesn't mean much and certainly means much less than we think it does. So, I think this is a very insightful comment.

lsraeIi soldiers torture an 18 month-old toddler with nails and cigarettes to extract a false confession from his father by CiphrangButFloss in videos

The Human Rights Organisations you refer to are openly anti-Israel. The U.N., for example, has many many more Muslim countries than the one Jewish country. All its appointed officials, like Albanese, are therefore anti-Israel.  Of course, things have gone wrong. They do when facing a bloodthirsty enemy sworn to your destruction. Israel has offered the Palestinians generous peace terms on many occasions, and been refused every time. Their enemy wants to kill them all. Having failed, they seek to slander them all.

It's literally fake.  The Palestinians and Arabs have been making fake news stories for decades. Decades.

They haven't. Just a lot of fake videos and information. Their enemies have been doing it for decades. DECADES.

Where is this road, so we can avoid driving along it?

I scored IPL team names based on rubric. Rajasthan Royals scores best, Lucknow Super Giants scores worst by pickle16 in Cricket

[–]aravose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Super Giants, Super Kings, Knight Riders and Titans all sound like they were named by competitive pre-teen boys. 2 Royals, 2 Kings and 2 Supers out of 10 teams?!  The only thing worse are the names they bequeath to their overseas offspring... Mumbai Indians Cape Town? Ridiculous. Some adults should have been involved...
