That was the greatest ODI innings I have ever seen. Just unreal by Glenn Maxwell! https://www.cricketworldcup.com/video/3772755

This version of Pride really did nothing for me. A quasi-interesting ending isn't enough to warrant repeated spins. Did enjoy Bono singing in his lower register, though. Looking forward to the full album nonetheless. We're bound to get at least some good stuff, given the number of songs on this...

Greatest world fup final ever. Mbappe almost single-handedly dragged France back into the match...twice. What a phenomenal player. Easily the player of the tournament... can't believe they gave it to Messi, who wasn't even amongst the top 5 best players of this tournament. Fantastic world cup...

Yup, almost as bad as calling someone a sycophant for liking it :wink:

Been out of the loop for some time, so wasn't sure what folks were talking about here. Googled for it and found this: Fuck me, that sounds ghastly. It's like they're actively trying to ruin their legacy. And I'm generally pretty supportive of the band (and love a lot of their recent stuff)...

:sad:

:sad: The Big Three have won 62 of the last 74 grand slams. Only 8 other players have managed to win a grand slam over the course of these almost 19 years. I mean, as much as that's a testament to the greatness, longevity and sheer grit of these three, it's an indictment of the total shittiness...

Cannot believe the news about Shane Warne. And on the same day as Rod Marsh? Unbelievable. I grew up watching Warne. The only other celebrity/sportsperson death I was affected this deeply by was Kobe's. Just so sad and shocking. Warne almost single-handedly dragged Australia into two consecutive...

Book of your heart is a good song. The Sing 2 song is lol. Apt title, though. If this were the song I heard on my deathbed, I would will myself to live longer to make sure this vapid piece of crap wasn't the last piece of music I ever heard. Dune (2021) is amazing (I know this is off-topic...

The greatest cricket match of all time. The greatest tennis match of all time. One city. Same time. Absolutely insane what went down yesterday. I have never experienced such unmitigated, unrelenting stress in my life. Both Federer and NZ lost. I'm heartbroken, completely spent, but also...

Whitewashed by England a couple of weeks ago in the bilateral ODI series, pulverized by the 8th ranked team in the world in their opening match, lost their previous 11 ODIs in a row - who in their right mind would've given Pakistan a chance today against tournament favorites England today? Who...

Where are all the cricket fans at? Really strong opening match for the hosts, England. They really do look like the favorites this time around (although I'm sure they'll find a way to muck it up :lol:). It's weird watching this World Cup as a neutral, since my team (Pakistan) might as well have...

Best world cup ever. Plently of goals, close and unpredictable matches, top teams being dumped out early, stoppage time goals...and now this crazy-ass final. Love it!

What a goal by Mbappe! This kid is a star.

Imagine if England win this (whole thing) and then win the cricket world cup next year (in their home!!). Fuck. Talk about a nightmare of the most cuntian proportions.

Belgium are looking sooo good.

Really good day today. The Switzerland Serbia match was especially fantastic. End-to-end stuff, attacking football throughout, last minute winner by Shaqiri....loved it!

GOAAALLL!!! What a great strike by Luka Modric. Croatia up 2-0 against Argentina. Fantastic stuff!

Good game between Germany and Mexico going on right now. Germany can't seem to find that equalizer. Will be a great win for Mexico if they can hold on for another 25 minutes!

Still can't believe we're having a world cup without Holland and Italy. Hasn't lessened my excitement though. The atmosphere looks so great at the stadium in Moscow for the opening game!

So this happened yesterday: https://youtu.be/-EOY8AojqzQ Just stunning bowling by Boult. And catch of the season by Williamson. England have really let their test cricket slide in preparation for the world cup. Woeful stuff.

Yeah, I'm only looking at this data in an ordinal sense. The rankings at the very least should be valid. Pretty great seeing Promenade getting so many 10s. Wish we had a bigger sample size though, could've had some fun with the data!

Killiney Bay. Bono likes talking about joy being impossible to contrive, and how rarely it is found in music. This is one of those rare moments. So, so powerful.

I'm genuinely surprised so many people seem to like this song. It's one of the blandest, by-the-numbers (in the worst possible way) songs they've ever done. And quite easily the most complacent they've ever been in their songwriting. Maybe if there had never been a Beautiful Day I'd rank its...

Just submitted mine. Here are my 10s (my Mount Rushmore of U2 songs): Bad The Electric Co. If You Wear that Velvet Dress Promenade A Sort of Homecoming Stay (Faraway, So Close!) Ultraviolet (Light My Way) Until the End of the World Where the Streets Have No Name With or Without You Zoo...
