Satwik-Chirag in another final. These guys are genuinely world class.

Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty just beat Malaysia's Sze Fei Goh and Nur Izzuddin in the Thailand Open semifinal—19-21, 22-20, 21-16 . That's a serious comeback after dropping the first set. They're playing Leo Rolly Carnando and Daniel Marthin from Indonesia in the final . I don't care if they win or lose at this point. The fact that they're consistently making Super 500 finals and semifinals proves they belong at the top of world badminton. Remember when we used to celebrate just qualifying for quarterfinals? These guys have changed the standard.

TIL soft hockey is a thing and India is sending teams to the South Asian Championship

Okay I had no idea soft hockey existed until today. Apparently it's like field hockey but with modified rules and a softer ball? Or maybe it's a different sport entirely? Either way, India is sending both men's and women's teams to Kathmandu for the 1st South Asian Soft Hockey Championship from May 20 to 22 . Lakhan More from Maharashtra is captaining the men's team and Keerthiga from Puducherry is captaining the women's team . The training camp just wrapped up in Jaipur with a big patriotic ceremony—chants of "Bharat Mata ki Jai" and everything .

What is your opinion on getting labelled as western bootlicker for watching European football, my take is that

Support is not charity, as people say "Sunil is one of the greatest goalscorers in the history of football" he is not even top 1000, scoring against Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, does not count, yeah sure in indian football maybe the best but not even close to european standards.
When an average kid starts watching football he wants quality time, not some bs served on the plate in the name of nationality. STOP GUILT TRIPPING
