Oops! Sorry Mr. Balakrishnan. We thought that as you have gloriosuly allowed put the movement of Sarath from 1st to 2nd round (he was one of the few inviduals who can move from 1st to 2nd round!), he is going to win a medal! But it did not happen!!
Never mind. South India will rock the Olympics..they will put the Olympics on fire like they have ruled the software!

He is is a tamil. and Tamilnadu is not considered to be part of the feeling that is Indian! - reasons
Why Tamilians tell themselves to be Indian when DD News Channel in Hindi is cutoff at prime time?
Why Tamilians tell themseleves to be Indian when in Central departments like Railway, Postal it is tamil all the way - what about someone from other parts of India who is passing through?
Why Tamilians tell themselves to be INdian when in the roadmarks of national highways Hindi is cutoff?
Why Tamulians tell themselves to be Indian when they have killed one Prime minster?
Why tamilians tell themseleves to be Indian when they support subversive actities and support LTTE?
Why tamilians tell themseleves to be Indian when there were no freedom fighters from there? I can bet that not single one of them fought for INdia?
Why tamilians tell themselves to be Indian when they represent the least in indian army?
....
"ag" buddy, be a tamil, stay in INdia and backstab india.

waah half of it is false. Anyhow one does not need to like Hindi to be called as an Indian.

South India? And Olympics? Nice joke. By the way dumbhead, all our medals this year have come from Punjab/Haryana.
Achantha had a tough road. Had he won 2nd round, he would have pitted against the No1 seeded chinese. Even he has lost to better player. He never carried any hopes.
Vijender Kumar has booked his berth in Semis. That goes for consolation for Akhil and Jitender.
Wrestler, Sushil Kumar(66 kg Freestyle category) have a chance to win the Bronze medal. His bout is at 14:40 IST today i.e in 5 minutes. Strange no media is reporting it yet ! All the best, Sushil...
Cricketers suffered a humilating defeat by lanka in 1st odi, but look now, they came back and dismissed them for 142. THats called bravery, unlike these kamals who give up easily. No wndr cricket is our religion and SACHIn=god!

minister cannot remember every player who played some game and won some country race.introducing oneself is no crime.

maybe next time gopi meets the minister he should ask him who he is.. the ministers expect everyone to know them.. it is amazing that such ignoramus can become ministers.. no wonder our poor sportspersons are in the state they are..

Shocked to know our fancied definite gold medal winner suffer a unexpected shock defeat. The loss is a great upset, totally unexpected. India has been unfairly punished by lady luck. . . . . . . . . . . . He should have offloaded before departure.
