Even if AIFF WERE to secure funds for someone like Xavi's hiring, they wouldn't have done that. His voice is too influential to allow them to sleep on their couches like they do right now.

Without checking with Xavi, let’s use basic common sense:
– If Xavi wanted the India job, his agent would’ve made the call or sent an email
– He reportedly rejected a $15M Qatar national team job with insane perks
– AIFF posted the job online with a public email — anyone could apply
– AIFF HR department doesn’t even have a qualified HR professional to do a background check. Find out who the head of HR is and the person's background profile.
What if AIFF ([email protected]) received an email from [email protected] and an attached CV?

"You will see great sorrow, and in that sorrow you will be happy. This is my last message to you: in sorrow seek happiness. Work, work unceasingly. Remember my words, for although I shall talk with you again, not only my days but my hours are numbered" -- Fyodor Dostoyevsky

You cannot observe the Big Bang. You cannot observe dinosaurs. You cannot observe…oh forget it.
You cannot observe most of what is interesting in science. 🥱
You don't need maths to see that assuming the existence of other universes is unscientific. All you need is to understand that assuming the existence of something you cannot observe is unnecessary to explain anything you can observe.

If beauty is objective, then a new work of art, like a newly discovered law of nature or mathematical theorem, adds something irreducibly new to the world. @DavidDeutschOxf

It's an interesting human trait that arrogance, orneriness and disagreeableness seems to be correlated with outsized success

In my view, aiming at simplicity and lucidity is a moral duty of all intellectuals: lack of clarity is a sin, and pretentiousness is a crime. — Karl Popper
