Indian corporate "support"
by Suraj Kumar on Jun 15, 2012 05:16 AM



Indian corporate "support" is only meant for one S a c h i n Ten Dull Car.

And that support comes in the form of outright purchasing of victories and records so that Golden boy can hawk more of their sub-standard wares and products.

Indian corporates have fine tuned the art of exploiting Indian hysteria.

No. "Prey" is what Indians need to do to be successful in sports.

Take Cricket for example.

We can only win in India.

When we go to play in Australia or England, we are defeated all-0.

When Indians "Prey" on the success, that is, pay money for trophies, Indians win.

So let's all "Prey" on success.

What an effort to justify the mis-spell. All signs to become an Indian politician

more will be TV revenue and then companies will turn to sport persons. SO it started from normal public only.

If more people watch Olympics then more money TV station will make through ad's. Companies usually tend to use sports stars for advertising products. So it all starts from passion of common people...

I am here.

This time India will bag 10-15 medals thanks to Mittal_Foundation and Olympic_Gold_Quest.

Shame_on our government and corporates...

Pride of olympic medal is global.

My prestige was saved by Abhinav Bindra when he won the gold medal beating a chinese in China in 2008 Beijing olympics.Somehow,I could say,that India also won one gold medal.

I can understand the feeling of Steel Tycoon L N Mittal,who could not find Indian atheletes in Athens_Olympics which made him sad and he vowed to turn the fortuned and started Mittal Foundation...

OS, thanks for the update. It seems people will not turn up for discussion if the topic does not lend itself to abusing others.

Hope your prediction comes true!!

Which are the sports in which we have a chance to get medals? Boxing, Shooting, Shuttle, wrestling, any other?
