Yeah, to get cut means you got booted from a team you were already on. I see your confusion though, because if the wording was “you didn’t make the cut” rather than “you were cut” then yeah, that’d probably mean you didn’t get picked in try outs.

Nah, see, the example you gave us gives ya the feeling of “well hey, if I lost, at least I know it was to the best of the best. Maybe I was second best. That’s still pretty good.”
The example here gives the feeling of “damn, I’m why they didn’t get the championship sooner.”

Idk about that, the other subs I follow are more or less continuing as expected. This one took a nosedive recently for sure though.

Ig, if you’ve only heard the phrase used with negative connotations before…. Either way, thats a new spin on a common phrase, it’s still not really a shower thought.

This is literally a phrase dude, this isn’t a shower thought. Thats like me posting “you learn something new every day” or “beggars can’t be choosers” or some shit. Weak sauce homie, weak sauce.
