Bharathselvan said: india as a whole is obsessedwith cricket. for indians cricket is the only game. the merchants of the game are capitalising on this madness and see to it that it never gets cleared. As for terrorist victims, my heart goes out to them. May 16, '08 |

King-Bulls-Ring said: Madhumita, Carrying on life normal is something and the entire media and the IPL barons running panic hither-thither to 'save the show' is something else. And thats what I want to point out. See the news channels - How they are follwoing the A$$e$ of Modi and Mallaya and their gang, reporting every other hour of the "dramatic events that are unfolding" following the blasts in both the camps - I mean the IPL camp and not the relief or consoling camps in Jaipur nor the Cops camps there... And LedZep, I am not advocating 'suspension of normal life in Jaipur', but I am suggesting the Media and the Polics forces in the City to focus on the task at hand, instead of 'worrying about' the 'safety' of the IPL clowns and 'giving them more protection.', 'to keep the show on'.... MY QUESTION: For once, can the media come to their senses and downplay the IPL Fiasco and cover some news of regional and national importance...??? May 16, '08 |

madhumitaCAP2000 said: You are correct all throughout except when you say about the IPL Frankly it is that "the show must go on".Though Novacaine has said it in disdane but it is the fact.Remember how we congratulated the Delhiets when they behaved normal after the Diwali blasts So it has to be like that We dont want the terrorists to get what they want by putting the scare into s and playing havock with our economy and day to day normal life.Though the media could of course have been a little more HUMANE.

King-Bulls-Ring said: Did you see the news: Bangalore had offered their 'ground' for the Saturday's match..!!! and Jaipur refused to take it... Wah Bangalore - Looting in the fire..!!! One additional match for them..!!!, One more day's revenue for them..!!! No matter what happens in Jaipur..!!! And Why should Jaipur give their revenue away..??? Now, I can hear people saying "its all business and everybody accepted it that way and why cry now.."??? Well, even business men have some social ethics and responsibilities. Even they would come forward to adopt to the situation. But, here its like NOW OR NEVER mood with all those SRK's, Mallayas, Zintas and Ambanis... Even a cricket ground caves in during a match, they will have the match conducted outside, on the road, - not to loose the money... Sorry Ledzep, There is no comparison with NANO, here. Here nothing is for the people or by the people - Its only for those riches and by the riches... May 15, '08 |

King-Bulls-Ring said: Ledzep-> "WHY this visceral hatred for ipl? blame them for everything??? ...reminds me of the launch of the nano!" Dear, No other event or commercial is running around so frantically in search of BIG TIME money, in recent times in India. This is projected and supposed to be a Huge Money Spinner for the owners and players (alone), and supposed to provide 'top-class' entertainment to the publeek. Everything else takes second place and priority for the media, when this is on. No matter who dies or who doesn't. Imagine, if there were no IPL during this week, all these T channels and Newspapers would be running 24X7 in and around Jaipur, covering every winks and moves that are happening in that area. Look how the so-called 'owners' are reacting to such a nasty event. "the show must go on" We will give more protection to our players..!!! Yes. its only their players matter to them. Or in other words, their 'bonded labors' must be safe, to earn money for them.. contd... May 15, '08 |

Ledzep said: am compelled to strike a discordant note! WHY this visceral hatred for ipl? blame them for everything??? ...reminds me of the launch of the nano! what about all the intolerant hate mongers? what about the body politic? what about the likes of advani and cohorts who can't even straighten out their VERSION (forget truth! simpler truths evoke visceral responses, note the reaction of the cpm to the wb governor) of kandahar after all these years? surely the argument cant be whats fair in the pursuit of power isin't in the pursuit of money!!! cheers!

King-Bulls-Ring said: Ironically, some newspapers have commented that "Thank God, the players were not affected becuase they were cooling off in Goa..."... What NON-SENSE... May 15, '08 |

King-Bulls-Ring said: Yes folks, If these clowns have little bit of humanity left in their hearts, they should cancel the matches in Jaipur and instead, they must go and console the victims (with all that glitz and glamor they unrightfully earned through the IPL).. That would be the least they could do. But, they are frantic in letting out statements that the 'show will go on'.. 'no need to panic'.. 'we will give extra protection for the players' and all that crap.. Now, on Saturday, all the Jaipur Police will be busy 'protecting' these bunch of clowns, while they could be chasing the culprits who were behind this dastardly crime... VANDE MATARAM...!!!! ITS TRUELY... VANDE MAD-HARAAM... May 15, '08 |
