not done..

I don't understand this!! Boycott ads which cricketers endorse.. vandalise their houses.. what!! Why are we such bad losers? yeah, we lost.. why not accept it and move on!! We weren't good enough, others were better.. so what! why put someone on a pedestal and throw him down later? Don't worship cricketers.. they're no asking you to do that.. but learn to accept defeat gracefully..

One more thing..please ppl do not send me any director of orktu is shutting down orkut or throwing me out of it msgs!! im sure thts not going to happen.. so lets please not worry abt tht!! :)

this analysis of our team's performance has become pretty boring. Still i reproduce what i wrote at someone else's blog as i continue to stand by it:

"but kindly don't blame anyone
it was a game, even the mighty sun gets clouded, at times
so what if our cricketers lost
mind u, they too, personally have a lot at stake
their endorsements, their popularity, their selections, their fees etc.
so i really dont think they did it deliberately to deserve
the kind of backlash we are giving them
we all know that all sportsmen are in and out of form
at some times or the other
even filmstars, the other big thing we indians are mad about
are moving up and down the charts at different times
so we need to take it as it came and avoid the business of blaming

but yes, the procedure of selection
as it stands right now is flawed with each zone's compulsory representation
i dont think we will mind if all the 14 players were from Karnatka or Maharashtra
if they could make a winning team to get the world cup
but this present selection where each zone representation is mandatory
is flawed as per my logic
so i think the buck should stop at the process of selection
rather than some person
and it needs urgent attention"

While I totally agree that vandalism is uncalled for, we should not just accept the defeat and do nothing to improve ourselves.. the Indian cricket team must realise that its notok.. that its time strong measures are taken to improve, and not jst accept defeat and repeat it again and again...

Ujwal said...

all this retaliation from the fans and the bad-losers-attitude has one and only one reason and that is...."joblessness". People have plenty of time and energy.

Anirudh 'Lallan' Choudhry said...

the last line says it all...we dont accpet defeat gracefully..!

Anonymous said...

We all have thoughts on the worlds biggest "silly point" game .. dont we?
*grin*

And at the ORkut Thinggie.. HAHAHAHAHA! :)

Unknown said...

I totally agree with Ujwal. Us Indian have too much time to waste on such silly stuff, to prod into other people's lives and never enough to do something fruitful ourselves.

ankurindia said...

yes its right .. but peoples/advertisors should not keep spending huge money on cricket if this is not going to give them wat they expect

Hopeful Indian said...

Real bad sore losers we definitely are...even fools day jokes revolved around bangladesh getting kicked out coz of drugs and India getting a shot again :)

Jewel Rays said...

U have such an attractive Blog templates. Love it much..:D

I m very much with you Neha..Its just a game and to loose is as much a part of life as to win.. But i beleive more than anything else it is the amount of money involved in the game which makes all the difference. Hockey being a national game, India keeps on loosing but who cares.

keep rockin....

Hero one day...the butchered guilty party the other!!
I dont know when Us Indians will learn to grow up and start accepting defeat like sensible people do..
Looking at the vandalizing incidents that took place..Sense and sensibility might be a distant dream :)

All Is Whole said...

You are right Neha,
Here people dont know how to appreciate the defeat.

Smiles :)

Prometheus_Unbound said...

What is it about cricket and us? Why do we have to elevate the Indian team's performance and make it an issue of honor every time. People writing on why cricketers shuld be banned, people writing on why 'people who think cricketers should be banned' should be banned and the worst of the lot people like me who want to ban both the above two groups- why don't we all go and get a life.
