Pantheon is a project by MIT university to rank the most notable people in human history based on how much traffic the Wikipedia profile of the personality gets. In order to get in the database the person's Wiki page must be in at least 15 different language versions of Wikipedia then it applies a complex mathematical equation to assign an HPI (historical popularity index) to rank personalities.

Nuclear weapons are almost a century old technology no tech can be made exclusive for that long. Before we see an actual county using one we will see more Beirut like explosions.

lol Shoaib Akhtar and Sehwag give me funny and sad vibes.
Both talented players with bling in their prime but after retirement they have become trolls who don't really have any proper job, doing anything to make money. It's kinda sad like seeing someone from highschool who was really popular but isn't doing great in life now.

Are you in shape, have you been conscripted, and have india crossed the border with a trillion dothraki screamers?
– Relatively better
– I think conscription will not be needed here for a while bcz we have a huge population
– Definitely it's on the cards. A second major front has opened in the world since then. Current Indian govt is right now in the phase of internal conquest once it will be done they will go for external expansion i.e the first country Nazis conquest was Germany

Same as Spike. The idea of sending off players for a while does work in sports like hockey but don't think it can be executed in football.

Which is so far from reality. IR already has a negative reputation in any Middle Eastern countries for the proxy wars and they spoiled the recent support they were getting after Oct 7 by striking countries like Pakistan which they never really had any hostilities with.

Misbah-Ul-Haq did not average like 60 as captain and lead Pakistan to test number 1 ranking following the spot betting scandal to not be on this list you POS.
A contemporary great but not an all-time top 10. He became permanent in the team in his 30s and was in and out of the team before his peak.
The spot fixing scandal was actually his breakthrough. He told in the WC show that after he was dropped from that infamous 2010 England tour his mom asked him what are you planning to do now ? he was 36 and getting dropped at this stage of career means it's over.
But the scandal happened and he got a phone call from the Chairman to get back into the squad and become captain.

KO matches in this Asia Cup have been fun so far.

Daily reminder whether it's Nethanyahu Putin or Bush decision to start a war can be an individual decision but how it is conducted is always a collective institutional approach.

Western countries cut aid of UN agency providing relief work in Gaza over Israeli 'allegation' its 12 memebers were involved with Hamas. If you were wondering why a lot of countries were indifferent to Ukraine, not that they hate Ukraine or like Russia.

Ukraine is now fucked as a country for eons regardless of how this ends. Even Afghanistan is making a recovery because it's now firmly a no man's land left alone by everyone after consecutive global powers strategically failed there.
Ukraine will never be left alone.

Algerian coach is getting roasted. This was one of Algeria's greatest set of players and they've had only failures even after winning Afcon in 2019.
2021 Afcon group stage
2022 WC didn't qualify

100% on point about Baluchistan being a difficult terrain.
Even the British never tried to bring those parts fully under their control bcz they are sparsely populated with hostile terrain. If British with an Empire didn't bother about it then expecting cash strapped countries like Pak Iran to invest as much resources in those parts as their main population hubs is not realistic.

Tanzania are a growing football nation from what I’ve seen, but yeah I still think Morocco will be too much for them.
Their domestic league is quite popular.

Sounds like Pakistani’s army quietly supported Iran’s strikes without telling the politicians in control about it though. I doubt anything comes of it - at the end of the day both Iran and Pakistan agree they want the Baluchi separatists quashed.
Both governments also are basically China’s testicle polishers in the region, so I can’t see China being too keen on them fighting.
It's about optics. They need to do something as a response.
Agree on the second part

All African elite teams except Senegal failed to make a winning start.
Formerly small and mediocre teams of every confederation like Namibia, England, Vietnam etc are all improving now. They can specially cause upsets in cup competitions.

The strike by Iran in Pakistan will only cause diplomatic row but stupid move by Iran.

Being drunk should have no influence in judging heinous crimes like rape or actions that may lead to death, drunk driving imo
