...as time passes we have more money to waste and more friends to entertain
and more furniture to accomodate them all

i always had more waste than money and more entertainment than friends .
so, the drawing room had always been spacious...

it was witness to not only some of the craziest and most pointless of games ever to be invented , leaving golf aside but nonetheless witness to some of the most nail biting , edge of the seat cricket matches played with a thermocol wicket and the fastest spectacled bowler bowling to the only man who could not only see that small a ball coming at him and but also had the technique to smash it over 8 ft above the window for a six.
if you thought we were just incompetent and immature sportsmen ..we were more than that..

frm that to the treasure hunts with clues like "we all win" to more bizarre games of childhood this room ...

and now there'll be more furniture to fill up the space and

QED : times passes-more friends to hang out-lesser friends to play :(

*Bump*

I liked.. the picture here and how brilliantly this article ends. =)

Is this what we love about sport?

That it can be so cruel. That it shoves in our face the brutal truth - the distance between the Winner and the Runner-up is agonisingly long, even if it was a photo-finish.


What can anyone say to Roddick in consolation?
The final had left us Fed fans in two minds. It was for Roddick that we had eyes for, after the insane fifth set finally threw up a result. Super glad for the No. 15, we also couldn't help but wonder what agony must have awashed Roddick.
We realise that he gave it his all. And it still wasn't enough.
But then maybe it is also a reminder of what makes Federer what he is. The match could have gone eitherways. But it went Roger's way. Not just this one, a lot of such close-encounters earlier too. Guess he can hold on for that one extra - all important - second.

Truth be told

I thought Ricky [Ponting] was crap when he was first captain in 2004 and nothing much has improved since then. I'm not the only one who thinks that ...everyone at home thinks he's shit at the captaincy.

Former Australia fast bowler Jeff Thomson as forthright as ever

T20 Champions

The prominence of T20 is growing to staggering proportions. One has to go back just as far as the last T20 World Cup to trace the it's path of exponential growth and popularity. Each of the world cups have been a landmark in the history of cricket, the first one set off a completely new generation and possibly a new genre of cricket. It's shocking to see how things have changed so quickly, one almost doesn't care for ODIs anymore. It's probably a reflection of the times we live in, where everything around us grows, decays and is consumed at an alarming rate. It's ironical that it had to be Sri Lanka, whose loss yesterday will hopefully set off a new lease of hope to cricket in Pakistan.

Following the happenings in Pakistan through the western media, the feeling that it might be a crumbling society is a scary thought, where bomb blasts and deaths have become sort of like performances, much like concerts and plays in some of the developed countries. While this might not change much politically (it would be foolhardy to believe so), it would seem that for a cricket crazy nation starved of anything good happening to them, it's a nice impetus to get their act together. Success can be infectious, one would only hope that is the case for Pakistan cricket.

It was also heartening to see the Pakistan board finally show some spine, and give some of it's players who 'defected' to ICL the respect they deserved. Finally on cricket, as much as some of us might hate the prospect of T20 taking over our world, it increasinly looks like the death of ODIs is not too far away.

Zing Zing!
