Life Beyond IPL

Scene one: Sports Journo at work
IPL---- IPL----- IPL-----IPL

Scene two: Back from the work
Family watching IPL

Scene Three: Weekend
Frnz asking for passes of IPL

Who is Saina Nehwal…. ?? What did she achieve?? Are we bothered….?? No, ways….
Forget about the boxing… what, if our team won 6 gold… Who cares about that…? And no one wants to remember the hockey team….
Today we have just one religion…. One thing to eat… and One word to sing…. IPL—IPL—IPL.
And after all this, we blame Indian public that they don’t want to see other games… We cry for the TRPs, when it comes about the other sports…
Truth is this that we want to fill our pockets with money… So we are selling a game… on the name of TRPs and after that we blame the poor public that they don’t want to watch anything except cricket…
See the classic case of Hockey World Cup… public got crazy about the game… about the players… May be for a day or two.. At least, these players also got there due credit…
No one can forget the example of Olympics 2008, cricket was at back foot and Olympics won the match….
Three cheers to Indian Media…!!!!
What about the normal days. No big game is there… So we have again come back to our roots… cricket…. Now the question arises… Is cricket seriously our root…. Or it is again a media hyped thing… Answers lie within you…
