Harvard University (2024-2025)

[rugged vessel]

and only some offer

[crystal shadow]

who cares if u barely got in versus if you were a shoein

[fleet thicket]

unfortunately :(

[rugged vessel]

kinda, but kinda not

[zealous cipher]

My current top choice doesn't offer 😦

[rugged vessel]

there'll be an added imposter syndrome if ur like me and just got definite proof i almost didn't get in

can really make being top 3% in the world not feel good enough 🥶

[fleet thicket]

“All Yale College students are entitled by law to view their admissions files at any point during their enrollment.” YESSS

[reef grove]

I should've applied to UChicago

[reef grove]

[zealous cipher]

Bro can't stop making me hungry

[reef grove]

hungry to take a bite out of the world and make your mark

or smth like that

idk im not a linkedin warrior

[zealous cipher]

And then my Stanford roommate essay mentioned food like 10 times

Am I a big back?

[reef grove]

[zealous cipher]

hys is so vile bruh

[crystal shadow]

i wanna see all my admissions files so bad

[zealous cipher]

Everytime I see that acronym

[cerulean drift]

a lot of the other schools in ur acronym will prolly be targeted soon too...

[zealous cipher]

NO

[crystal shadow]

columbia always getting hated 😭

[cerulean drift]

truer words have never been said

[fleet thicket]

where’s the Y

[cerulean drift]

FRR

[zealous cipher]

Yk it might be time for a new acronym

[cerulean drift]

justice for colymbia

[zealous cipher]

HYPSC

Unlike you ivy students

🤓

Hating the commonfolk

[fleet thicket]

veritaffle 🧇

[cerulean drift]

dartmouth's is a cry for help literally

[crystal shadow]

reading the dartmouth motto makes me feel like i have a wolf inside me or whatever

[fleet thicket]

what is dartys

[zealous cipher]

No one even speaks latin anymore except the pope

[crystal shadow]

yaffle 🧇

[cerulean drift]

"the voice of one crying out in the wilderness"

but in latin

[fleet thicket]

[crystal shadow]

guy in the harvard megathread:

[rugged vessel]

i dont remember the motto but the beginning of my why dartmouth was smth along the lines of "(insert whatever the motto was), me when i forget to bring my bugspray on the plane to campus"

ok that matches up

[zealous cipher]

I shall be loyal unless certain events occur

[rugged vessel]

i got rejected btw.

[zealous cipher]

It was a blessing in disguise

[crystal shadow]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[cerulean drift]

no that's so funny

[crystal shadow]

i went to a camp in upstate new york once without adequate bug spray. i came back with polka dot legs

[rugged vessel]

dude my dartmouth and princeton essays were the ones i tried the hardest on and those were what i got rejected from

im SO CONFUSED

moral of the story dont try on your essays

[cerulean drift]

yeah

[crystal shadow]

okay does this mean i have a shot at princeton and duke then

they were my worst applications essay wise

[zealous cipher]

Real I got into the reach on which I spent 10 mins on the essays

[cerulean drift]

got a likely from columbia after writing the essays a day before, no copy and paste

[zealous cipher]

That's horrible grammar

[cerulean drift]

its more authentic

[crystal shadow]

goat

♔ take this queen

[rugged vessel]

i remember crashing out because one day like 7 people in the thread got a columbia likely and i didn't

[cerulean drift]

it's lowkey an honor when bugs consider u yummy

[crystal shadow]

oh i did this

[cerulean drift]

ever since i lowkey wrecked my diet they no longer do

[crystal shadow]

the audit got my hopes up bro

[zealous cipher]

I might be yummy

[cerulean drift]

u must be doing something right

[zealous cipher]

But Harvard is more yummy

[crystal shadow]

oh

[zealous cipher]

Imagine if the walls of harvard were cake

I'd eat it

[crystal shadow]

veritaffle 🧇

[cerulean drift]

"u guys are so elitist"

😔

[zealous cipher]

I'm making a culinary remark

[rugged vessel]

i still havent had a veritaffle

[crystal shadow]

i feel like the most tasty school would be yale

[zealous cipher]

Whenever I think of Harvard, my mouth waters as I desire to consume it

[crystal shadow]

chicken and waffles

[rugged vessel]

i havent even been to widener library

this is information that would make an a2cer mald

theres too many steps i dont gaf

[crystal shadow]

i read that as weiner library and thought it involved breakfast sausages

[zealous cipher]

What's a widener library

[reef grove]

its gonna be the first thing i do

[reef grove]

best library in america and biggest

[rugged vessel]

i am gonna push you down the stairs

[zealous cipher]

Harvard has so much of a delicious vibe

[reef grove]

ill push you into the river

[zealous cipher]

I'm so hungry rn

I need Harvard

[rugged vessel]

not this again

[crystal shadow]

oh

burn this thread

[zealous cipher]

icl i've never heard of this in my life

[cerulean drift]

its the widest

most bigback

[zealous cipher]

STOP

[cerulean drift]

a library u would enjou

[zealous cipher]

It's like a giant sandwich

Oh my gosh

[crystal shadow]

oh

[crystal shadow]

bro get lunch please

are you okay

this is like that one scene in the minions when they started eating each other

[zealous cipher]

I did 😭

[cerulean drift]

whatd you get

[zealous cipher]

Ramen

[crystal shadow]

like the one where one of them thought the other was a banana

[viral thorn]

i dont give a shit about harvard as a construct but this is actually criminal

libraries are the best part of college

[crystal shadow]

LMAOOOOO

harvard as a construct 😭🙏

[viral thorn]

no offense gang but its occurred to me that school is just ass

[cerulean drift]

ermm actually it would be annenberg which looks like hogwarts

[viral thorn]

going to a cool and sexy school does not change the fact that it is still school and therefore miserable

[cerulean drift]

true

[crystal shadow]

that’s why i’m deferring my enrollment for a year

so i can keep the magic for a bit longer

[zealous cipher]

Are you committed to ucsd?

[viral thorn]

I lowkey want to take a gap year just because i don't want to go to school

but i will just sit on my ass and play osu all day for a year

[crystal shadow]

no

[zealous cipher]

bru

why it in your name then

[viral thorn]

a lot of ppl in the server just put the best/preferred school they've been accepted to in their name

and then change it out every time they get into another one they want to go to more

[zealous cipher]

ah

that's too much work 😦

[crystal shadow]

i’m between ucsd/uci

uci gave me a fat scholly

[cerulean drift]

are u oos?

[crystal shadow]

yes

[cerulean drift]

damnn

[crystal shadow]

i got 15k/year i think

[cerulean drift]

congrats

[zealous cipher]

THATS INSANE

good job

[crystal shadow]

it’s because i’m a chinese girl

[cerulean drift]

😭

i thought that made it harder

[crystal shadow]

uci is expanding their roster

[crystal shadow]

insert socal abg joke

💔

[cerulean drift]

are u planning to rave

at uci

[zealous cipher]

do you like boba and valorant

[cerulean drift]

my friiend kevin said he liked you

[crystal shadow]

yes

[zealous cipher]

[crystal shadow]

yes

[zealous cipher]

just send it

it's not gonna hurt you

[cerulean drift]

i think it was nguyen...

[crystal shadow]

if i go to uci do you think i can rank up to immortal

i wanna hit immo3 one day

[zealous cipher]

that narrows it down so much

[crystal shadow]

it probably will never happen

[cerulean drift]

yeahhh u should add it

maybe ur app is still in committee

[crystal shadow]

yes

it can’t hurt

lmao

[zealous cipher]

my princeton interview was so good

[obsidian nexus]

bro

youll be fine u got this

sweep

[crystal shadow]

😬

[hardy lance]

i care about getting into harvard

[obsidian nexus]

yeah they dont care about that part

if they think ur doing stuff just for the school name its not aura

[hardy lance]

i wrote a good essay i think

[night breach]

Chat did I need to self report my sat and AP on Harvard's portal

I thought common app would send it over 💀

[quaint steppe]

Do you not have a check mark for act or sat on checklist?

[night breach]

Oh wait I do

Sorry I'm just tweaking on the last week

Cooked anyways 💀

[sour pewter]

swerve bend that corner wooaaah

[quaint steppe]

Same u had me worried

[reef grove]

nah all of y’all will get in

100% acceptance in the harvard thread

[crystal shadow]

yes

[sour pewter]

no interview 😢

[crystal shadow]

the entire incoming class is just a2c

[reef grove]

they didn’t need one to know they wanted you fr

[crystal shadow]

that doesn’t mean ur autorej

[zenith falcon]

guys

stop stressing and enjoy the sunset

[crystal shadow]

someone did the math and 160 people got into yale w/o an interview last year so

[reef grove]

bro actually nvm i don’t want that 💀

[sour pewter]

oh really? I mean not that I like those odds, but there ARE odds, so ig I'll take that. Thank you!

[night breach]

Same no interview as intl 🥲

[hardy lance]

put the fries in the bag

[sour pewter]

I'm sure McDonald's university will also reject me tbvh

[hardy lance]

where are you from

[sour pewter]

US Citizen living in India

[night breach]

I didn't get an interview from McDonald's when I applied before too

[sour pewter]

did you get the job?

[night breach]

Nah

Got ghosted

[sour pewter]

oh

[hardy lance]

ur not international

wait are you that guy from reddit

[sour pewter]

no lol. I don't have a reddit account

[sour pewter]

ahh

[hardy lance]

ur domestic

lmao

[sour pewter]

I have zero clue about how colleges classify domestic v international.

[sour pewter]

oh, does that change anything?

[hardy lance]

um yes

[night breach]

Ur instantly more likely not cooked

[hardy lance]

u qualify for federal financial aid

so needing finaid is not a dealbreaker

[sour pewter]

oh?

[sour pewter]

I didn't apply for aid

[hardy lance]

and in general there are more domestic students than international at harvard

meaning you have a higher liklihood of getting in

[sour pewter]

okay, that is reassuring

[hardy lance]

that's even better

as far as aid goes ur at the tippy top of prefeference

[sour pewter]

I mean my only hope in life is that harvard people thought I was domestic, but some thought I was international, and they got confused and didn't give the interview lol.

[sour pewter]

oh wow

[hardy lance]

i'm sure if you could stress the uniqueness of ur application as an indian-american from india it might do you a world of good

[sour pewter]

yeah man idt I did that enough 😢 haha

[crystal shadow]

the general consensus is that harvard interviews are mainly availability based if you're domestic

idk how it works if you don't live in the us but

[hardy lance]

however we do say that interviews are kinda important

as the data shows 95% of admitted students had one

[night breach]

Some ppl say that for intls it might be prescreened

[hardy lance]

but its a bar to clear not a chancebooster

[night breach]

But 🤷‍♀️

[sour pewter]

oh wow

[sour pewter]

yeah

[sour pewter]

haha yes that is true.

[crystal shadow]

5% of admitted students didn't get an interview! its rare but not impossible

[sour pewter]

we live on chance, don't we

so some context might help to explain why I might be cooked. My friend is the first from my state (I'm p sure) to get into harvard. She got in REA this year, and she did get an interview. So...

[crystal shadow]

it only feels like chance because we don't know what's going on behind the scenes

theres much more that goes into than just a roulette

if you know youre competitive through other means i really wouldn't worry

i mean either way i wouldnt worry 😭 its out of our hands

[crystal shadow]

well 95% of admitted students get an interview so that's not surprising

[crystal shadow]

^

[sour pewter]

yeah.. I'm not worrying atp. MIT was my dream, got rejected. I have caltech w me, so that is reassuring. I'm just waiting for harvard and more 2-3 schools

[sour pewter]

yeah 100%

[crystal shadow]

congrats on caltech!

[hardy lance]

caltech wtf

don't be too greedy

[crystal shadow]

lmao if you got into caltech you really have noothinggg to worry about

[hardy lance]

yeah clearly ur a stellar canidate

[sour pewter]

thank you

[hardy lance]

there are only a few hundred caltech admits each year lmao

[sour pewter]

It is an amazing school. The best for astrophysics imo. The only thing is the social scene that kinda is keeping me on the borderline.

[hardy lance]

ur in LA, i mean

like

if u want social stuff u can find it real ez

[sour pewter]

I genuinely think it was a random luck moment in all honesty

[sour pewter]

I knoww. but I heard from a lot of people that caltech students barely find time for stuff like that except weekends. Plus having like 250 people total in your class kinda takes away from the "college" experience imo.

[hardy lance]

i mean that's just every t10 i feel

[sour pewter]

Caltech is still really close to my heart, but that's just the one thing keeping me on the line

[sour pewter]

true, but like most of them have a larger, fuller scene, if you will. So, that's why I'm a little on the fence

[hardy lance]

would you go to harvard over caltch?

[sour pewter]

not that I have anything to choose from atm, but I'll still wait it out

[sour pewter]

Not 100%. But I will probably visit the harvard campus (If I get in) and get a feel for it. I know their astro program is amazing too. It's like, I will definitely be torn if I get in, but I'd love to have it as a school to go to!

[crystal shadow]

having a lot of choices is a blessing and a curse LMAOO

suffering from success

[sour pewter]

ahaha, we will see in ten days lol

[hardy lance]

bro what i'd give to be into caltch

and not need aid

[sour pewter]

I am torn between caltech and unc atp. Idk how hard it will get if I get a better school

[crystal shadow]

nine now!

closer to eight

[hardy lance]

shut up

its exactly 9 days

from rn

[sour pewter]

I agree dude. It honestly is an amazing feeling. Matter of fact, I'm wearing a caltech shirt too haha. I'm very happy, but i'd love to wait and see

[knotty orchid]

bro I got waitlisted ND surely I’m finished for Harvard

[sour pewter]

oh yess. I didn't check the date. It's the 19th for me in India. So It is 9 days for us (we will open ivy decisions on 28th)

[fleet thicket]

its more no?

i lied

[hardy lance]

it comes out at 7 get it right

[crystal shadow]

ivy day is the whole day 😛

[obsidian nexus]

LMAO

[night breach]

It's only 8 days left?

[hardy lance]

north dakota yeah super hard school dw too much about it

[crystal shadow]

the entire day will be full of love and joy and hope

[obsidian nexus]

wait true

[crystal shadow]

its ivy day not ivy hour!

[hardy lance]

on ivy day I will do absolutetly nothing

[crystal shadow]

i have to take a fat physics test

[obsidian nexus]

on ivy day im watching a show

im so excited

[crystal shadow]

those who zhou

[knotty orchid]

notre dame bro

[obsidian nexus]

IS IT OUT

[knotty orchid]

[sour pewter]

I was thinking of going bowling with friends the day before, and then pulling an all nighter with friends online until decisions come out (early morning)

[knotty orchid]

bro my first 2 decisions have been reject then waitlist

[gritty parcel]

there was an intl last year who got rejected from 18/19 colleges including asu

[knotty orchid]

yeah but I’m serious bro

[gritty parcel]

theyre at harvard rn

[knotty orchid]

wait actually

[hardy lance]

i'm making a joke lmao

[gritty parcel]

yeah fr

[knotty orchid]

that’s gonna be me then

☠️

[gritty parcel]

youre in at oxford bro harvard isnt happening

js how karma works

[junior imp]

Waitlisted Notre Dame, Harvard will certainly come through

[gritty parcel]

maybe cornell

[knotty orchid]

😡

[sour pewter]

you're in oxford? Bro that is crazy! CONGRATULATIONS

[knotty orchid]

HELL NAH

[gritty parcel]

cornell slander will NOT be tolerated

[frail plank]

rejected notre dame wl bc but same #delusional

[hardy lance]

see this is how we felt when u said you got into caltech

[knotty orchid]

Yh but bro Harvard is lowk more fun

[hardy lance]

they are yeild protecting lmao

[gritty parcel]

all the ivies r more fun than oxford ngl

but

[knotty orchid]

yeah deadass

[gritty parcel]

you can meet the next thatcher at oxford

[obsidian nexus]

didnt apply

[sour pewter]

haha okay that makes sense to me now

[hardy lance]

thatcher isn't good

[gritty parcel]

you arent getting into harvard with yeild

jk

you are

[sour pewter]

agreed

[knotty orchid]

Nah no one is convincing me Penn Columbia brown Dartmouth or Cornell are

[hardy lance]

guys WashU just yield protected me

[knotty orchid]

Yale is kinda washed too

only haveard and Princeton have aura

[gritty parcel]

brown is the chillest ivy penn is the social ivy and columbia is in nyc

[night breach]

My parents says Cornell is depressing 💀

[gritty parcel]

top three funnest ivies right there

[knotty orchid]

ur true about brown, it’s chill I’ll let it slide

But the rest are washed

[gritty parcel]

nycccc

let columbia in and we got a deal

[knotty orchid]

$$$ that I don’t have

😭

[sour pewter]

I don't understand the brown slander. People in my school don't even consider it an ivy. It is a great school though. Why is it so?

[gritty parcel]

ngl every single ivy has stupendously insane alumni

[fleet thicket]

tf

[knotty orchid]

only bc they owned hella slaves

[fleet thicket]

all the ivies owned hella slaves

brown owned more slaves

[gritty parcel]

seems like a your school issue ngl brown is one of the romanticized colleges rn by everyone

[fleet thicket]

brown is named after a slave owner 😭

[gritty parcel]

do you go to a stem school maybe?

[night breach]

To ppl that care brown is lower in rankings 🤷‍♀️

[knotty orchid]

but brown got Emma Watson

so

[gritty parcel]

elihu yale did UNSPEAKABLE things in india bro

[hardy lance]

she's gone

not worth no more

[gritty parcel]

lets not start 😭

[obsidian nexus]

everybody says this but idk if its true

[sour pewter]

that is great to hear.

[sour pewter]

ahh yeah that might explain it

[knotty orchid]

wym

[gritty parcel]

not really ngl

[obsidian nexus]

this is weird because ppl at our school love brown

one of the most sought after ivies

for sure

[night breach]

Idk they said if I get in they're not gna let me go 💀

[sour pewter]

smart people I see

[night breach]

Yeye cuz open curriculum

[fleet thicket]

people just view down on brown because it has "less prestige" + build ur own major

great program and fun school

[gritty parcel]

brown appeals to more women rather than men so that also plays a factor

[obsidian nexus]

open curriculum + good culture

[gritty parcel]

so if your a guy in a guy only friend group you might have a diff view of it

idk

[knotty orchid]

yeah hence why I’m interested

[obsidian nexus]

LMAO

[gritty parcel]

insane work

[night breach]

Gotta bag the baddies

[knotty orchid]

yessir

if Emma Watson went brown

IMAGINE

the baddies

[night breach]

U can bag the rich baddies at oxford

[sour pewter]

crazy work

[knotty orchid]

I am rn, I’m on a residential

bro yall don’t understand when it comes down to it

I’m choosing which one to go to

Based on the baddies

[sour pewter]

go to ASU ffs

[night breach]

How about Cali schools

[knotty orchid]

nah I need the intellectual baddies

[gritty parcel]

i love this ss

[knotty orchid]

so are Harvard people chopped?

[gritty parcel]

thats what i heard

[night breach]

Have u guys seen that one interview vid

[hardy lance]

then i have a good shot at getting in lmao

[gritty parcel]

idk tho the only harvard admit ik is fine shyt

[night breach]

Where Harvard peeps say that guys at Harvard auto get like +4 in Harvard out of ten

Cuz everyone so mid 💀

[knotty orchid]

colddd

that’s kinda cooked tho

surely the competition is high

because there’s so few baddies

[night breach]

U can go get them at MIT instead

[gritty parcel]

mit people are fine asf

[sour pewter]

yeah dude. I've heard Harvard people go to MIT to chill/party

[reef grove]

not this year

maybe just bc there are a lot of athletes accepted REA but everyone i’ve seen has been v pretty

[sour pewter]

what's Harvard's class size like

[gritty parcel]

selection bias with posting yourself on the internet ngl

[reef grove]

like graduating class?

i think it’s like 1.6k

[knotty orchid]

yeah nah this is probably selection bias

[sour pewter]

ohh okay

[knotty orchid]

how much of the class has been filled so far?

like 1k?

[night breach]

Less prob

[gritty parcel]

most ivies take like half

so def half

[reef grove]

less fs

[gritty parcel]

js around half

[knotty orchid]

ah okay cool

[reef grove]

yeah i’d wager around half

[knotty orchid]

So like still 1-1.2k acceptances in rd

Considering some don’t attend

[reef grove]

there’s a couple hundred in the crimson chat that accepted students get added into

[sour pewter]

is there a big advantage doing Harvard REA

[night breach]

Isn't it 800 rd

[reef grove]

idk i kinda assumed it was half and half but idrk

they might do more rd bc they’re not as sure ppl will commit

whereas if you REA harvard they’re pretty sure you’ll go

[reef grove]

i’ve heard conflicting narratives

[sour pewter]

oh

[reef grove]

on the one hand it’s mostly athletes and legacies that inflate the numbers

in REA

[night breach]

Isn't it like Stanford where it barely helps

That's what I've heard

[reef grove]

i’ve heard some ppl say REA is harder, some say it’s easier

[sour pewter]

ahh

[reef grove]

idk

[sour pewter]

yeah that divide makes sense because one can't distinguish between the admits and how inflated they make the numbers

[obsidian nexus]

its like 500 right

for harvard

[reef grove]

500 what

[obsidian nexus]

oh its usually 600-700

for rea

nvm

[reef grove]

ohh

yeah prolly

[obsidian nexus]

can be both depending on who you are

😭

[reef grove]

like 600-900 id wager

[reef grove]

yeahhh 💀💀💀

idk i’m assuming none of y’all are athletes or legacies

[fleet thicket]

bro i met this girl whos going to harvard she bad asf

[sour pewter]

last year they took 1970 in

[gritty parcel]

every school has a bunch of 10/10s ngl

but penn?

everyone is a 10/10

pmo fr

[reef grove]

i have to get a glow up before visitas

i can’t look like a rat

[gritty parcel]

so real

[sour pewter]

being able to go to visitas is 1000000+ Aura. No need to glow up any further

[gritty parcel]

i bought new pants solely for admit day

[reef grove]

i bought new shoes for the harvard tour i did last year

[reef grove]

nah i have to prepare for my MRS degree yk

[obsidian nexus]

im actually a recruited treeclimber quadruple legacy building donor

[knotty orchid]

if Harvard recruited for cricket

then yes

[sour pewter]

yeah bro 100%

[gritty parcel]

bro i hate cricket ngl

god forsaken sport

[sour pewter]

nooooo

[knotty orchid]

it’s the best British sport

[reef grove]

first more than 100% acceptance rate candidate

[gritty parcel]

no bro

[knotty orchid]

that or golf

[gritty parcel]

there was this friend group in my class

[sour pewter]

I can agree.

[obsidian nexus]

my friend donated a building to princeton and didnt get in

[gritty parcel]

that was lowk pro at cricket

[knotty orchid]

But maybe if I was like 10 less on my handicap I would get recruited for golf

[obsidian nexus]

the building has his last name on it

[gritty parcel]

and every time we played they made a team and js like touched us

[knotty orchid]

actually ☠️

[night breach]

But did he donate two buildings

[knotty orchid]

Tell him to refund allat

[gritty parcel]

it was a horrible and unfun experience

[hardy lance]

are you indian

[sour pewter]

I could have gotten into the state cricket team if that guaranteed a harvard acceptance frfr

[knotty orchid]

cricket is meant to be fun summer vibes out in the sun, with good banter and then eating cakes and drinking tea all morning/afternnon

Then finish with afternoon tea

[knotty orchid]

I would’ve tried for state yeah

[gritty parcel]

no

they were tho

[sour pewter]

quite immaculate

[obsidian nexus]

yes im so fr

[gritty parcel]

it was so stupid it was like facing lebron in a basketball game

[obsidian nexus]

maybe he needed to donate two, because his sister got in but he didnt

princeton stingy as hell bro

[knotty orchid]

that’s actually corrupt

I’d refund imo

[knotty orchid]

indeed

[obsidian nexus]

lemme dm u

[gritty parcel]

this was gloomy skies tears on our face everyone yelling expletives and them js silent and nonchalant cooking us

[hardy lance]

are you british

[sour pewter]

what are your thoughts on the state of english cricket atm

[gritty parcel]

yes

[hardy lance]

oh

do you to to a public school

[knotty orchid]

Englands always cooked but we manage to win a few intl games every year and always win when we play at lords so I can’t complain

[gritty parcel]

i dont go to school in the uk

[hardy lance]

where do u exist

[knotty orchid]

wait u are?? 🤣

[gritty parcel]

feedom

[knotty orchid]

nicee

[gritty parcel]

yup

british-freedom

[sour pewter]

makes sense. I mean you're not getting the ashes this year. But being cooked by afghanistan again was not on my bingo card lol. Sad to see Jos Buttler step down

[hardy lance]

about at bad as thier football

tuchel's squad is a joke

calling up jordan henderson?

[sour pewter]

hahaha. I don't really watch football, but I can see haha

[gritty parcel]

if he played palmer the full game we woulda won

[hardy lance]

HOLY SHIT THAT FINAL MADE ME MAD

bro i was losing hope

then palmer scored and i was like

ok ok we got a shot

but alas

[gritty parcel]

every game made me mad

[hardy lance]

i didn't watch every game

[knotty orchid]

yeah we need to get some fresh talent through, and I’m sure they will sort it out by next season

[gritty parcel]

and jude scored a bycicle kick right when uk was about to lose to slovenia

[hardy lance]

esp a england game

boring af

[gritty parcel]

ruined my entire week

[hardy lance]

only reason why i like jude

i don't get why ppl like jude

i don't like him

[knotty orchid]

bro euros was so fucked

[gritty parcel]

i woulda had the best day of my LIFE if uk lost that game

[knotty orchid]

I had all my friends round

to my house

And then we lost

[hardy lance]

ur british

[gritty parcel]

fine shyt plays hard and is talented

with a nice accent

[sour pewter]

hopefully. Make sure Archer can stay off the injuries. He is an injury magnet lol. As a Rajasthan Royals fan, our season relies on his fitness atp

[gritty parcel]

the freedom part matters more to me

[hardy lance]

i don't see why he's so good

[gritty parcel]

its called SOCCER

[knotty orchid]

haha yeah true

[hardy lance]

he was invisibile during the final

[gritty parcel]

100%

but

[hardy lance]

foden too

[gritty parcel]

he put in the work every game before that

[hardy lance]

why was foden ahead of palmer

[gritty parcel]

controlling the ball and everything

[gritty parcel]

foden is a fraud lemme not get started

007

[hardy lance]

i don't like foden either

sell out

[gritty parcel]

0 plays, 0 touches, 7 kids

[viral thorn]

hi mub

[knotty orchid]

😭😭

[hardy lance]

in fact

i hate walker as well

[knotty orchid]

foden is washed

[hardy lance]

i hate all english city players

[knotty orchid]

bro walker is sound

[hardy lance]

walker just went on a emergency loan

bc he's so bad this year

[knotty orchid]

because he’s old asf

[hardy lance]

exactly

[knotty orchid]

he’s still solid

he was kinda useful in euros

[hardy lance]

eh

[gritty parcel]

greetings

[hardy lance]

trent is better imo

[sour pewter]

I genuinely can understand nothing lol. I only know cricket, basketball, f1.

[viral thorn]

guys im playing osu

[hardy lance]

but even without trent he could play trippier or any number of the million right backs we have

england makes me mad

i should stop being a fan

[knotty orchid]

bro being an England fan is not something u should do by choice

Only support if u live here

Because we never win anything

[hardy lance]

my grandma's english

[sour pewter]

trent reminds me of this cricket player called trent boult. Bro bowls so well, he makes a cricket scorecard look like a football/soccer one

[knotty orchid]

fair then

but bro

[hardy lance]

most of the football content i consume is from the premier league/english media

[knotty orchid]

we are never gonna win

anything

[hardy lance]

we will in the world cup

next year

we have the talent

harry kane's last world cup

[knotty orchid]

World Cup is coming home (it’s not)

[hardy lance]

but

i will say

usa foreverrrrr

if usa win the world cup next year

i will literally run around the streets

but its not gonna happen

so why do'nt we root for a team w a chance

[sour pewter]

idk about football, but USA did PRETTY WELL in the cricket T20 world cup last year.

[hardy lance]

we beat pakistan

that's crazy

[sour pewter]

no one expected that tbh

[hardy lance]

power of our visas

[sour pewter]

yeah exactly! Crazy work

[hardy lance]

let us issue more and forevermore

[sour pewter]

ahahahaha

[hardy lance]

trust

we can be good at every sport as long as we issue enough visas

[sour pewter]

makes sense lol

I think it was Joel Embiid who got on the US olympics basketball team because they issued him a US passport

if I'm not wrong

[hardy lance]

i don't like that

we don't need more talent

also team usa was kinda lame to me ngl

[sour pewter]

I could be 100% wrong, but I heard that

[sour pewter]

bro. Lebron, Steph, KD

[hardy lance]

yeah

[sour pewter]

what else might one want

[hardy lance]

old men

[sour pewter]

no I agree on that base

[hardy lance]

i root for the underdrog

i am a underdog rooter

[sour pewter]

I'm a huge Donovan Mitchell fan, so I would love to see him on the team in 2028

[hardy lance]

hes meh

ik who he is

so he's notable at the very least

trae young forever

[sour pewter]

this season he is, because cavs are playing "ethical" basketball. No one gets enough minutes to ball out tbh. He did carry us last year though

[hardy lance]

wait ur a cavs fan?

[sour pewter]

didn't the palmer guy and young get into a dispute over the "cold" celebration or something?

[hardy lance]

idrc

[sour pewter]

yeah. From day 1 of watching b ball

[hardy lance]

also don't call cold palmer the palmer guy

he's much more than that

[sour pewter]

before lebron won us champs

[hardy lance]

he's fucking cole palmer

[sour pewter]

lol

[hardy lance]

cole palmer the goat

the man will win a ballon dor before he's done

i swear to god

if lamine yamal slows donw

but it doesn't look like it

[sour pewter]

the only GOAT I know is Steve Smith from cricket tbh. Can't agree there

[hardy lance]

lamine yamal is younger than me

and he's won the euros and la liga

he makes me depressed

[sour pewter]

yeah I heard he's in HS

[hardy lance]

like really depressed

like wtf have i been doing w my life

this guy is literally better than most grown players on the planet

[sour pewter]

applying to harvard. Chill out 😆

[hardy lance]

legitamite top 3 players in the world

[hardy lance]

he'd get in as a recruited athlete lmao

[sour pewter]

hahahha good one

[gritty parcel]

so real

[hardy lance]

its the truth tho

well

[sour pewter]

yeah

[hardy lance]

his toefl scores might hold him back

[sour pewter]

💀

he needs the green bird on his back if ykwim

[hardy lance]

as far as i know he can only do spanish

but if harvard was serious he could get in

[sour pewter]

yeah I assume

I don't watch any football, so just going w what you're saying haha

The only football I watch is the superbowl to watch the halftime show and the commercials

[hardy lance]

that's american football

and that makes me mad

[sour pewter]

ehh

[hardy lance]

josh allen deserves a ring

if josh allen played this superbowl

he'd have won

[sour pewter]

your football is futbol, no?

[hardy lance]

but stupid nfl refs

fuck them

they hate josh allen for some reason

[sour pewter]

he has hailee steinfeld bro 🙏

[hardy lance]

and love patrick mahomes

[hardy lance]

she old

josh allen needs a ring

he needs a ring

[sour pewter]

crazy lol

[hardy lance]

he is not the payton manning

[sour pewter]

he won mvp though right

[hardy lance]

in the tom brady payton manning relationship

[hardy lance]

nobody cares

we care about rings

[sour pewter]

next year

[hardy lance]

about championships

[hardy lance]

chiefs must collapse

mahomes get a back injury or smthn

[sour pewter]

Cavaliers will be seeing some rings this year is all I can say

[sour pewter]

hmm

[hardy lance]

haha

lakers should win

[sour pewter]

nah

If you said OKC, then maybe

but Lakers? Hell. no

[hardy lance]

ok there buddy

luka

he's so handsome

i'd marry him

[sour pewter]

not handsome enough to rizz spida d mitchell

[hardy lance]

sigh

i want money

[sour pewter]

okay, makes sense

[knotty orchid]

USA got lucky lmaoo

shi is not happening again

And best believe yall are not beating England

[sour pewter]

nah bro. The performance was pretty well coordinated

[knotty orchid]

maybe

but like

cmon now

[sour pewter]

england got railed by afg bro pipe down

[sour pewter]

TWICE

[knotty orchid]

afg ain’t bad

And we just kinda

well

There were a lot of mistakes

[sour pewter]

now they aren't

[sour pewter]

hmm

[knotty orchid]

mistakes that can be fixed though

and as I said

bring in new talent let them play

[sour pewter]

as a rajasthan royals fan, no matter how many english players we've had (I think we have had more than half of your 2019 WC final squad) from buttler, stokes, archer, root. None of them have ever made me support the english team

[sour pewter]

yeah. I like australia in how they approach this

letting people like Konstas open against Bumrah is what makes australia australia

[hardy lance]

we;ve never lost lmao

[sour pewter]

YESS

[hardy lance]

we beat them first try

if the usa can beat england

i can get into a fucking ivy

[sour pewter]

the US team has genuine potential. It's just that they need a stable squad. They've been experimenting too much over the last 2-3 series

[hardy lance]

LETS SAY IT

lets see here

idk who our best striker is

prob that psv guy

wingers would be weah and pulisic

[sour pewter]

then, you getting into an Ivy is quite doable

[knotty orchid]

fs fs but there’s plenty of games to do this and try out new things

[sour pewter]

psv?

[hardy lance]

midfield would be mckennie, musah, and who else? i'm forgetting someone

[sour pewter]

hmm

[hardy lance]

right wait

sub musah for adams

and put in reyna

[sour pewter]

bro what are you talking about

[hardy lance]

so we r going for a 4-3-3

then right back dest left back some random dude centre backs r pretty stable the dude from palace in goal

[sour pewter]

bro that is baseball, right?

[hardy lance]

stable squad

a 4-3-3 single defensive midfielder

[sour pewter]

?

[hardy lance]

that's teh formation we use

for our tactics

in teh world cup

[sour pewter]

oh

idk man, just keep issuing visas if you want to beat england
