If Olympics had gold for critics
by Nikhil on Aug 07, 2012 06:09 PM

We all know who will win it ? We have so many of them writing long articles criticizing anything and everything .

Hey guys this articles sounds like sour grapes. If India was on top of the medal tally we still will have no emotional connect ?

How about cricket , hardly commercialized right ?

Even countries like South Korea, Mexico ,Kenya (they r well trained with lot of money? ),Cuba which are the size of our states have won more medals than us.

Lets focus on sports , we have too many of these english educated only talk types in our country , our education systems need to give importance to sports and create more sportspeople rather than churning out call center stuff who can only talk

Sorry my dear sports ( other than crikcet ) persons.

Hi

Our sportsperson might not make it to medal podium in olympics, but remember guys
they are representing our country. It means, they must have been excellent players in college, in univerisity, in state, in zone, at least in India.


If I make an ill comment on those, then I am insulting the effort they put in to reach such a level.

Hope like me you have also seen some photos of the players after winning medals in Asian games or tournements ended up in waiting for a shared auto rickshaw to go home with trophy.

Hockey team taking bath in open place in railway stations.

5-6 Players put in a room which accomodates only 2 people.

I feel shame to type something bad against such players for not winning a medal.

I neither play any such game, not at any level, not even at 'gully' level. But, I have an opportunity to write ill comments about them sitting in an AC room.

Sorry my dear sports ( other than crikcet ) persons.

Joshi

Govt in india doesnt care about athletes or sports
by Nitesh on Aug 07, 2012 03:04 PM  | Hide replies

They are just interested in cricket because of the money apart from that govt are not promoting, neither encouraging youths to participate in other sports. It's a real shame, Country like Belarus send 183 athlets, Korea in top 5 of medal list. We satisfied in comparising with Pakistan.
