1mhydpun7 Cheerleaders diary

Already the cheerleaders are causing heads to turn(or rather bend down and look up), distract batsmen, increasing stampedes near their place on the field.

Shobhaa De has written this hilarious article – Cheerleader’s diary.

I must say i couldn’t stop laughing …

Here are some excerpts

…Gee… I am like totally weirded out by this whole India gig. Like these Indians are majorly weird! Especially that minister dude from Mumbai who wants to ban us from shaking our pom poms. Come on, man. Chill out. It’s really hot out there. Like 40 degrees C, okay? What do you want us gals to wear? Eskimo suits? Oh oh, I get it — we are the ones getting the heat up, right baby? That’s our job, honey! We get paid for it. Ask that cutie with the big mama earstuds who hired us — Veejay. The bigger, the better, he said. We thought he was referring to the crowds in the stadium…

…Especially those handsome hunks with ponytails who are on the field playing some bizarro game that’s not half as much fun as baseball or soccer. We were told it’s called ‘Cricket’. What a cute name! I always thought cricket was an insect!…

…Occasionally, they also watch the game, especially when that funny umpire is dancing and prancing behind three sticks. The teams are like Russian salad, with players of all hues mixed up in the bowl. Our job is easy — we cheer for the boss’ team….

…Of course, there are some gross guys who ask us to bend forward for a better shot, but we aren’t stooopid. We turn around and show our fannies instead. Pretty smart, huh?…

….Indian chicks are way out wild, try clubbing with them… their moves would give pole dancers a complex. Maybe that minister dude should party with locals and scope the scene for himself…. night riding, anyone? We luv our groovy work and groovy undies errr, costumes….

Indian Premier League, The Commercialized Monstrosity

200px Ipl logo new Indian Premier League, The Commercialized MonstrosityI have nothing against cricket as a sport. But the way it is over commercialized is what i hate. And for that reasons IPL or the Indian Premier League.

Cricket is getting an unwanted publicity in India and this is not the way it is. But sadly it is. Having cricket matches are fine, but letting them spend billions just for a game, is that ever justified? But why billions, that too in a country when an average man is struggling to make his ends meet.

Ads, campaigns, publicity stunts. Do we need all these? Does the real spirit of the game still exist under such monstrosity? They play the game. Get paid handsomely and goes home. What happens to the poor common man who came to watch the matches and the others alike? The game is generating the wrong kind of passion among fans and followers. The sooner we realize this we can save the game and the future of the other games as well.

Already people have started to experience the headaches of IPL. Right now as i type, people are complaining that there is a huge traffic at MG Road, Bangalore, close to the stadium where the match is underway. IPL site is down too(good). The only good thing about the whole IPL match is that, my manager has left early for the day and now i can sit and blog for the rest of the evening. The whole office looks very much deserted.

Will IPL ever pay for the loss in business and damages. The people who ‘owns’ the team has already confirmed that they are in loss. Huge loss in money, time, business and rest of the balance sheet will follow soon.

Why couldnt they just support the ICL? Not to mention the ICL finals was as gripping as the T20 Finals.

Chak De India! was made around hockey. I totally go with the fact that it can be used to promote, encourage or cheer any game what so ever, from Kabadi to Cricket. But why cricket alone? That my friend is something that we must ponder and see the injustice that we are doing to the other sports that are here in India.

With the 20-20 WC mania gripping the nation, with nothing less than a scintillating performance by the Indian Team, we have to agree that the team needs appreciation. But are they really worthy to hog the limelight like this? They all became over night starts and came back home after signing multi-crore deals.

But what about the other sports in India? The football team, the Indian Hockey team all are equally frustrate. Even after they give their 100% for the matches, even after winning tournaments, they are left to loom in the dark. Not much media attention, may be a column of news in the second page of the sports section, that too if some space is left after reporting about some freaking cricketer’s mother spending the whole day doing pooja and praying so that her son would do better in the matches.

Do YOU remember the Indian Football team winning the Nehru Cup beating Syria. Or at the least, Indian Hockey Team beating South Korea to lift the Asia Cup.

Sadly the hockey match was much more action packed than the Twenty20 WC final. But who cares and who knew that in the first place. When on the eve of the hockey match we were all sitting in the comfort of our homes watching some stupid plagiarist movie.

Why didnt we give the Football and the Hockey team a hero’s welcome. They too were trained, they too gave the game their 100, they too beat all the odds and made things work their way. But we simply chose to ignore them. Leave alone the Central Govt. not recognizing the players and the game that they played, when asked to the CM of Karnataka of the same issue, well Mr Kumaraswamy wanted them to get the world cup as well to be recognized and treated. Hell!!! We all know that he himself cant handle his own cabinet.

As we apotheosize the cricket team, we are killing the other games as well. That very well includes the national game, Hockey too. BRAVO!!!. Cricket is a high rollers game now and big money and stardom follows the one that makes it to the National Team. It has become and anathema in all means possible.

As we are having a channel dedicated to cricket and that has nothing to show but replay the few moments that Indian team has ever won. I’m growing sick and tired of this solemn anarchy. I refuse to genuflect for this damned game that is sure to kill all the talent here.
