Why I love the IPL

IPL stands for the Indian Premier League cricket tournament. The yearly tournament featuring teams from eight cities namely Delhi, Calcutta, Rajasthan, Punjab, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad and my personal favorite Mumbai.

IPL wouldn’t have been started if it weren’t for the ICL, at least that’s what I think. Kapil Dev and his cronies came up of this idea to start a tournament similar to the English Premier league which is held in England every year which has a massive fan following all over the globe. But since this tournament wasn’t going to earn our “beloved” BCCI any money, the tournament was banned.

Then the “brilliant” Mr. Lalit Modi comes up with his idea of the IPL basically to counter the ICL. Unfortunatley for the ICL, the IPL has turned into a major blockbuster, atleast in India. And now due to elections in India, the IPL season – 2 is being played in South Africa. Call it providence or fate or whatever, this present and ideal opportunity for the game to be marketed in that country.

Any way I am not here to debate anything for nor against the IPL. I just want to analyze how I feel about the IPL.

Since I can remember, I have always been a sports fanatic, any sports for that matter. I always loved sports competitions, playing as well as watching. Sports are in my blood!

The best thing about the IPL is to watch the combinations within each team. Since each team has 4 foreign players, you get to watch a combination of Indians and the rest of the world within each team. Without the IPL you wouldn’t see Adam Glchrist and Herscelle Gibbs open the batting together, not Chris Gayle and Brendon Mccullum, and my dream opening pair… Sachin Tendulkar and Sanath jayasuriya. How about Zaheer Khan and Lasith Malinga opening the bowling together?

How about the incredible Shane Warne, an Australian, supporting and showing confidence in an unknown left arm 18 year old Indian bowler kamran Khan and making his the main strike bowler of his team. How about MS Dhne captaining Chennai team which includes the incredible Mathew Hayden and FLintoff.

The combinations and permutations of every team makes you watch with intense anticipation.

How about countrymen who stand shoulder to shoulder for their countries having to face each other? Irfan Pathan slamming his brother for a six, and Yusuf replying in kind with two boundaries off Irfan. Flintoff bowling to Kevin Peterson, Muralitharan bowling to Jayasuriya, Kumble bowling to Sachin. All awesomely anticipated encounters.

To top it all off the games just last for about 3 and a half hours. As good as watching along Hindi movie.

Fantastic isn’t it.?

Actually folks I was planning to put down something else here, some sad thoughts , but strangely mind mind just refused to be drawn towards the sadness in my life. My mind wants just to think about the IPL. Seriously since the IPL began I haven’t had the time to think of all my life’s problems. The only things my brain focuses on right now is how will Mumbai fare against Kolkata, or when will jayasuriya and Sachin both fire together. My mind doesn’t want to go into my sadnees, my black hole at all.

Nice isn’t it.. That’s why I love the IPL….. Sadness banished….. happiness revisited. SO folks , as long as the IPL is on, depression is gone…….. IPL RULEZZZZZZZZ

random random thoughts

Well, i havent posted in here since ages and since no one is waiting for me to postand since no one has ever read any of my previous posts it really really doesnt matter.

i am again at that period in my life where i have to make a decision, well actually i am waiting for someone or rather waiting for a few things to happen before i make a decision.

I need more money.

or rather i need a job where i can get better pay.

WHy?
I dont know, its not that i have a growing need to buy something, nor do I have any problems in life where i need a lot of money, nor i am in any kind of debt.

My present pay is quite ok for a single bachelor like me.

But then appears the proble. I am a 28 1/2 year old indian male and have to think about getting married. Or rather the people around me are hell bent in getting me married and take credit for doing it.

So in order to get married I would have to get a girl that I want. And considering the most incredible specification I have of my desired wife, I am sure there are tons of guys behind that exact same girl.

So lets look at my options-----

I am short 5ft 3in to be exact. Looking at the various matrimony advertisement wherein girls look for their perfect guys, I found that no girl want a husband whose height is less than 5 ft 8 inches it seems. (losing round one)

Secondly I am quite round and portly and have gotten quite dark working here in the sun and this further lowers my desirability and thus my chances of getting that perfect girl as my wife...

So what remains?

lemmme think.........

.........

...........

.......


ahem.....


MONEY.........


SO guys thats y i need money, need a job which pays me a lot of money.,,,,,,


so am waiting for that perfect job, that great pay, that superb wife....


waiting............waiting..........waiting

..............................................


ok , so thats the end of my break, i am going back to work.........


and hope that the wheels of destiny turn just right i land up in a place where i exactly want to be, with a wife i exactly wanna be with........

Ramblings about the universe - 2

My brain wants to continue pondering about the universe….. so kindly beware, that what may come out of it will be 100% gibberish, but all the same my brain needs an outlet, so what better place on the internet than a blog that no one reads.

SO…..where was I? So GOD finally decided to deploy man and woman on earth. He decides to create a garden called Eden and place these two dumb idiots over there. Those two dumb idiots were basically idiots who had no idea what to do other than stare at each other. GOD frustrated with these idiots decides to send in a snake in an apple tree to send signal to Eve to entice that dumb Adam and procreate. The snake must have spent a good deal of time with the woman, coz she was a WOMAN. And made her eat the apple, which was the ancient form of the now Viagra. Eve surely must have had no trouble teaching adam about sex.

Another thought comes to my end….. (u remember that eternal unsolvable question---what came first? The chicken or the egg?..... Well! If Adam and Eve arrived on earth as adults, then surely the chicken arrived before the egg.)

Anyway these two buggers procreate and wait 9 months for their offspring to form. All this while they were experimenting on all the things given to them by GOD. The following dialogue must have gone on between those two……

Adam: Hi. Errr……… what are these two round things on your chest? I don’t have them.
Eve: I don’t know, but they are useless, and what is that thing between your legs?
Adam: I don’t know, but its not useless.
Eve: did you know if I closed my eyes I cant see anything, that mean these eyes are for us to see.
Adam: you are so intelligent Eve.
Eve:And another thing I have noticed. If I close my ears then I cant hear.
Adam: Wow you are superb.
Eve: thankx. If we eat, if something goes in side our body it becomes paste inside and comes out. Whatever comes out of our body has bad smell.
Adam: you are right about that. Liquid comes from front and solid from behind
Eve: yes. But you are lucky to have attachment in the front side. I don’t have one.

My brain suddenly wonders if there was any language at all in the beginning of time. I mean u have to learn something right? You just cant have learnt everything right from birth. That means these two wouldn’t have been communicating at all.

Damn……… there goes my communication theory. Out the window.

(My brain is still thinking………..thought process has been stopped, more rambling later…thankx for reading :D)

Ramblings about the universe - 1

My polluted freaked out brain today wants to ponder about the universe. My brain really has too much time at its disposal.

After 2 minutes of intense speculation, my brain has finally come up with this analysis! Read it at your own risk! Be aware that this is high speed speculation without brakes. This is a write up directly from my brain. Totally unconnected ramblings which will start one place take a lot of left and right turns, may change roads, and end up somewhere far far away from the topic it began with. So…. Read it at your own preil.

Well, as the Bible says, God created light. I wonder why he was sitting in the dark all this while? ANd once he invented light , I wonder what he saw, coz there wasn’t anything to see. I just wonder what he was doing all by himself….. I mean surely he must have had a female companion right? Now who invented God is the million dollar question.

Anyway…. As my brain was analyzing….. (another warning again….. my brain is at full speed…cant stop) God decided to invent man, and I guess he found MAN boring so he invented WOMAN. I am sure after inventing theses two samples he must have really got bored of looking at them. They must have been doing absolutely nothing. Well he has to entertain his female companion now doesn’t he? SO he decides to make these two samples do something. He creates a world to live in. now… our science says that dinosaurs ruled the earth before man.

So………my brain wonders…… what the hell were these dinosaurs doing on earth. I mean what could be the reason for these creatures to be on earth? What kind of entertainment value to they present to GOD? Except grazing, hunting, and reproducting? May be GOD was just experimenting with earth and how he could make it better. I suppose he created the entire universe first and then got bored to detail all the planets and all the stars and all the solar systems. Or he just concentrated on our solar system. May be had created man and woman on another solar system and all the while invented dinosaurs to inhabit here, so that he could try his experiments elsewhere. Quite possibly his monumental experiments failed and he probably destroyed a few solar systems in the process.

And then, Finally, decided to perform his experiments on earth. Probably, got bored with the boring dinosaurs and decided to make them extinct…….. and introduce man and woman on this earth.

(to be continued………if my brain decides to….)
