Monaco Slam Prix!!

In a desperate attempt to save the most "glamorous" event of the year from becoming another yawn like it has been for the past so many years, Bernie, Bernie Ecclestone, pulled all the strings he could to ensure that Monaco is still considered a must watch event. But sadly, it doesnt deserve to be a track. With enough space for two tricycles to go side by side, this track is an absolute pain to those who enjoy some good old racing. After all wasnt that what it was all about?

But, unfortunately, and yeah, sadly, this track depends on the weather and roads narrower than the width of the car, and spikes on the track to make it even watchable. Folks, if anything, this year's race at Monaco, begs for its removal from the F1 calender. Infact, if Bernie is really hell bent on maintaining the glamor, he can have teh cars go around the track 78 times in 2 hours, one after the another, and declare the guy who doesnt crash the winner. Actually, lets forget the 78. Just last 2 hours and you win. Take a tricycle around, no problem. Just keep moving for 2 hours. And my man, Blew it Hamilton did just that to win the farcical Monaco Slam Prix!

Congratulations!!

Bull(s)hit!

NBA Draft. 2008. Like the other things mentioned in this page, was a sad event. An event where for a majority of us, undeserving people yearning for luck to turn us into overnight winners, it was a slap across the face. God used that little mercy he leaves aside for our lot, that little mercy each year, to make those left out comfortable in hope, he used it completely on the Bulls. The Bulls. And the Heat. The Bulls, well our lot can at least identify with them, and we can feel happy about the fact that at least it was one of us. The Bulls were genuinely bad. And apparently they were not happy with how bad they were, and they worked extra hard for that luck they earned on the night of the Draft. I mean, who in their right mind would trade for Larry Bruise and Drew Badden? What were they thinking? So, the luck the Bulls got really does not disappoint me. For committing suicide they perhaps deserved this extra life. But it is the Heat that made this event SAD!!

The Miami Heat!!!

The Heat. Led by a Dwyane "I dont know what to do with this ball but I can be flashy" Wade, whom the refs have learned to love, and have become so possessive of him, that they blow their shrill whistles when anyone steps on the same court as he does, with Big Daddy, Shaq, the most dominant center of our generation, arguably, to help him. The scape goat of the fiasco called 2007-08 Miami "We Hate Winning" Heat, led by Dwyane "The Flash" Wade. Only Shaq knew what he completely meant when he gave this disaster that name. Dwyane "The Flash(in a pan)" Wade. Still the Heat were lucky to get an All Star and arguably, one of the most versatile players in the league, in Shawn Marion. Yet the Heat pledged to remain devoted to their season pledge. We hate winning.

Now a bit about our lot. Us undeserving people who yearn for that luck, that luck to change our lives for the better. We work hard to be this bad! We do! Hence the luck the Bulls got on Draft night does not disappoint me. Its the Heat. With the talent, on that team, they had no business having that shocker they called their regular season. And instead of punishing them for their carelessness, for punishing Wade, the guy can play after all, for being so indifferent to the team's performance, inexcusable for a player once considered a possible successor to the seat left vacant by His Airness, this league, this league that loves to worship its "stars" gifts him with another opportunity in the form of a world class talent. No.2 pick on Draft Night. Draft rights to Beasley/Rose. To leap frog a team that just did not care enough about winning, but were always capable, into legitimate championship contenders.

Sad Day!!

GO CHELSHIT GO!!

May 22nd, 2008. A sad day for European football when two substandard teams square off for the biggest prize in Europe. Manchester United. Chelsea. An absolute nightmare come true for the true fan of the game called Football. An art that has been reduced to "Hit it high in the air and pray we get it" ball by these two teams. Manchester United, led by a "star" who should be nominated for the Oscar's every year. Chelsea. well nothing to write about them. Last year their manager made sure they made the headlines for some reason or the other. But this year they have just managed to be one big YAWN! But so sad is the final match up that, just for the heck of siding with a team, you would prefer a team with nothing to write about than a team of artists, just not suited for the football pitch. So on this day, a day that would witness a titanic clash between the biggest duds in the history of European football, lets all get our voices in unison to yell Go CHELSHIT Go!!! Sad day indeed!

The King learns "The Truth" WWE Style

Game 7. Boston vs Cleveland at the Garden. Three all stars vs The most valuable all star. The game had all the ingredients for a classic but sadly all it turned out to be was a farce. In a desperate bid to make the star claims of Paul "The Truth" Pierce credible, NBA used its biggest weapon, King James, to give rise to a new "star". The star waiting for his "breakout" game, which apparently was long overdue. After paying off half the Cleveland team to go on an early vacation, David Stern, ensured that a legendary performance for the ages, by the KING ended up for a losing cause. A sad day when a 45 point 5 rebound 6 assist 2 block 2 steal performance had to be second best to a clown, who has a tough time to hide his excitement when his shot goes in, the "TRUTH". May 18th, 2008 - a sad day when NBA pulled off a WWE story , where David Stern made Vince look like his student and when the King was forced to be second best to a mediocre wannabe.
