Tiger, Terry, MINK..

As was expected keeping up with what goes on around me is not easy. So not surprisingly, I failed to update this blog. Not that anyone would complain as yours truly's efforts at blogging is yet to come to anyone's attention.
Tiger, Terry, India's #1 Test ranking, MINK have managed to hog the limelight in the first two months of this year. Well no one's sure if Terry did a Tiger or Tiger did a Terry. Both are rumored to have slipped in and out of 11 different sheets at the least, with Terry even managing to bed, impregnate and then pay to abort his one-time friend's ex-girlfriend. Anyways both look like they will get away with it. So much for the sanctity of that institution.
Does anyone care India is #1 in ICC's test ranking? Does the BCCI, players, or anyone realted to the game care about this? The only people who seem excited by this is media, who have gone to town singing paeans to Dhoni's captaincy and his men. 20/20, Champions trophy, meaningless series with srilanka and IPL have meant that the public has been feasting on an overdose of cricket. Sooner or later, they are going to lose interest. Me personally have lost interest in cricket. Hardly glance the sport page.
MINK: If figures mentioned in the media are anything to go by, then people of mumbai have called the sena's bluff. Their dikat was based on the threat of force. For once the law and order machinary stood up to the bullies and the result is for every one to see.The Shiv Sena, MNS, Muthalik and his sidekicks are all cut from the same cloth. They operate by psyching out the majority by threat of force. But when the full force of law is used against them, they chicken out and retreat and resort to issuing statements saying they have achieved their purpose. The people of india could use the MINK episode as a template to deal with such future threats. India belongs to all indians.
