I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away and I've done the math enuf to know the danger's of a second guessing.


Monopoly

Read this article in TOI and thought of sharing it out here with you guys. Though we all know the after effects, I thought let me clarify some points here. Put some details that you might not have thought about - so here goes some analysis. Impact of the big IF looming over the sub-continent.

For starters, you'd know that last week was a happening week in the cricketing world. Two teams, India and Pakistan lost their group matches making life difficult for them. On tops, PAK coach Bob Woolmer passed away the very night their team lost to Ireland. What're the impacts -

Looks like the world's gonna end if the match on Friday doesn't turn out to be a +ve one for the men in blue. Why go through all this pain? Why not win against SL and end all these "question marks". Gauging from what happened last week, it doesn't look that simple, that easy.

I HATE cricket and would be so happy to see the boys go down. Call me a sadist coz I know what grief that would bring to the average Indian. :P

@ d for dawn - hating cricket is one thing. Hating a 'team' is something else, I think you're mixing things here ;-)

@rajesh - No, I do not hate the boys! :O Is just that I think it is a waste of time considering the fact that the average Indian forgets everything else and ends up sitting at home and watching the cricket instead of being at work. Or even if you are at work, the live scores websites are always open and you end up discussing only cricket. Liking a game is something, but making it a religion is something else. That is what I hate.

@ d for dawn - Cricket is a passion back at home I know, I too hate the monopoly [;)]. But then in Europe its Soccer (we do have fanatics out there too). In this part of the world its, Football, Baseball and NBA - people start discussing each and every game, every play @ work out here ;-).

Its a religion out here too but its on a lesser scale.
