  1. He most certainly should not 'be in jail' and I'm sick of seeing it from Australian fans who have no idea what crime he was even charged with.

    I dislike Diaz, his record tells a different story of him being a superb fighter. Saying this i think he really is a good well rounded mma fighter, but hardly title material. Sad DC lost even tough i like Stipe too, missed the fight but it seemed it was closer than it looked.

    He's decent. Certainly well rounded as you said. His only outstanding feature is his ability to tank punishment. His head is made out of some kind of fucking indestructible material, can't knock the lad out. If Conor  vs Diaz 2 had gone til a result it would have been Diaz picking up the W. Conor was evading and counter punching beautifully but always on the back foot, terrified of going to the ground. 

  3. Way to easy to get your hands on fire arms in the USA. 

    Create stricter licensing laws for fire arms. WAYYYYY stricter. Like, almost Australian strict. Then make it a 15 years jailable offence to be caught in the possession of an unlicensed firearm. Watch crimes like this become a thing of the past.

  4. England shat the bed, to be save by broad and woakes. Australia shit the bed to be saved by Smith again. I think 250 would be very tough to chase on this wicket. This test will fall on Australias ability to bat beyond Smith.

  5. Make a Buddy Murphy with Alexa Bliss porno. With optional booker T commentary and a Corey Graves + Carmella special edition

     

    Sell it for $10 ppv. We never need another saudi show ever. 

  6. Hate getting the washed up non wrestlers back to steal the thunder of the roster. A least it was 1 night only. 

     

     

    Kelly Kelly would still get it and breakfast the next morning tho.

    I didn't wanted to get involved, but the stupidity of those posts is too much and the disgust towards India unnecessary. India bring in 70% of the revenue to this sport and is pretty much sustaining it on the global stage. (Hell today I learned that just last year BCCI paid 1500+ crore RS to our government, which helped finance other Olympic sports in our country). Without this money this sport will die a slow death. Most of the Indian players are not rank arseholes. 

    India was the last national side to get on the T20 bandwagon. However, IPL has helped so many players come to fore. The likes of Warner, Butler, quite a few of  the Windies, and a truckload of Indian players. It has aided them financially, as well. Even English players have now publicly stated how it has improved their game. 

    Importantly, I find this snobbery towards limited overs childish. It reminds me of my school days, where kids who discovered rock music would laugh at people listening to pop. Absolute immature behaviour. 

    All formats of cricket can co-exist. 

    Lastly,  we were not the number one favourites (England were for the right reasons) and no one apart from the English media and pundits have stated that the WC is theirs to lose. 

    One can still continue to hate us, but dude let the reasons be valid. We are not spoiling the game.

    Tremendous performance this from England. Deserving of the final. Someone new will win the World Cup. England favourites by a mile, but I still hope it's the Kiwis.

    Having experienced first-hand the way the  IPL started out I have to say that it was in response to what the ISL was doing and it was also done to generate some serious money as well which I suppose goes along with the destruction of any sport not just cricket. It did die down a bit somewhere towards its third iteration but then it picked up again and got really good. I wouldn't say it destroyed the game more-so moved it in a different direction that people were used to seeing.

    T-20 is a far easier event to watch just because of its explosiveness and the way teams approach games. Does that have an effect on the other styles of cricket? Yes. Does that necessarily mean its destroyed the game itself? That's really up for interpretation. Having more facets to a sport could dilute the others based on its popularity but that doesn't meant an ODI or a test-cricket match is suddenly going to get worse does it?

    I disagree with the destroying comment but each to their own. 

     

    The reason is irrelevant. The BCCI and the ICC (run by BCCI, Cricket australia and ECB) are destroying cricket in favour of revenue.

    The Kiwis have their tails up, upset ahead? If they can get Pant out then the upset is possible.

    Are you kidding? This game is fucking over, and would have been buried had pants each chance just there been caught.
