Football Frenzy!!

I know its been a long while since i have posted anything!! This shows one of my characters- laziness...

Anyway, lets not delve on that further.. At the end of the football world cup and Wimbledon, I have come to realise something.. I find football, most interesting and stimulating than any match of cricket i have ever watched.. For starters, it gets over in one and a half hours which is very quick a game compared to cricket.. and secondly since its a game with a small period of time, I am always at the edge of my seat for any goals or even penalties as it gives more tenseness to the game.. I am not an expert of the game , just a newly made fan.. but i guess its a game which needs team cooperation to the maximum level..I found it to be a rough game.. and players are accident prone to a very great extent..

During the world cup, I didnt exactly weep for any country's loss, but I have a feeling France could have won this time if Zidane hadnt done the bull act.. nevertheless, it was an interesting game to watch........ One of the outputs of watching the world cup is that I have acquired an instant crush on Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal, who is good with the ball and has some very clever tricks up his socks...(winks n flying kisses to him!!)

Before you drown in my drool, let me write what I think is the condition of football in
India.. Though, thereis a good amount of audience coming up for football, its just for international football.. I wudnt blame them as there is no national football that is popularised or even telecasted.. There are lots of talented players in Bengal and Kerala and TN.. but, not much people know Sabir Pasha of Tamil nadu or I.M.Vijayan of Kerala who are grt players of the game.. I think football shud be popularised a bit more by giving more media coverages in Channels other than DD sports, which v few peopl watch(honestly!!).. So, wat say you??

P.S. whatever i have written is just my opinion.. so, no offence to any other sport lovers..

hmm.. for tht a lo of money will have to be poured in...

and regarding cricket... it may not be fast paced like footer... but a game of cricket is much like life and goes through many ups and downs for the teams before the result is known... its a TEST of everything... perseverance, skill, patience, endurance, determination, dedication, discipline... over a prolonged period of time... so it requires much more mental stamina!
