Yesterday... was it God's own hand..? that helped Germany to win the Quarter finals. Yesterday was it God's own will that Argentina remained so helpless in spite of Lionel Messis and the legendary guidance of Diego Maradona. Though I am not an atheist, I still prefer not to believe that the out come of yesterday's match was was God's doing. I may be a die hard fan of "Diego Maradona" but it was simply a feast to eyes watching the German's fielding the goals one after the other & never for even a while allowing the Argentinians to take a perfect shot into their goal post. This week and the coming will show how far Germany’s form will take them. Germany has won the FIFA World Cup before but so also has Argentina . If Germany is able to repeat the quarter final feat when they play Spain on July 8 and if Germany is able to eventually fly home with World cup on July 11, it will only prove that it is will,spirit and undying team effort that allows

My knowledge of football is as limited as my knowledge of cricketing. However watching FIFA world cup has always given me the kicks & excitement which has ever remained a missing factor while watching the IPL series .It is sad that even in spite of Lalit Modi & his team's work out to spread the outfield with semi covered cheerleaders, the cricketing pitch has not been able to produce any knockout games, they merely remained a series of glam & glamour. Well it is not right to go foot loose kicking cricket every time & every where. After all it is the one game in our country that scripts overnight rags to riches stories outside of the silver screens. Football & the world cup has always been for long a part of my day dreams.One of my life time goal is to see myself cheering my "INDIA" at the FIFA GOLD CUP. Since it may take a few more of decades to see that coming true I do wish I am able to survive that many decades and also remain hail hearty and a

Every four years since year 1930, setting aside year 1942 and 1946, "football" almost transforms itself from a simple ordinary people's sporting event to become an exciting global religion. The soccer world cup or FIFA world cup is played every four years between the qualified football teams of various nations across the planet. It is the time when even an atheist starts chanting for his/her favorite players and teams. The 2010 FIFA ,kicks off today at Johannesburg South Africa, which is the venue for this 19th world cup soccer. The thirty two qualified countries will be playing in eight groups and the venue for this most globally exiting sporting event will remain spread to 9 cities. For a month long from today for the world around it will be "Ke Nako" a time now to "Celebrate Africa's Humanity". This is the official slogan for 2010 FIFA. 208 countries participated in the qualifying matches for this 2010 FIFA. This number is greater t

How can our judiciary as well our constitution give right to terrorists to file mercy petition against death sentences upheld by the highest court of justice in the country. The neck of "Afzal Guru", the master mind behind the terror attack on our Parliament should have been on the 'noose' four years back, when the supreme court had upheld his death sentence. However today he still remains hail & hearty, stealing media time as well political attention. How can the "chief minister" of a state sit over the file of "Afzal Guru" for four long years, simply because she feels hanging "Afzal Guru" will create law & order problem in the state, where incidentally 'law & order' as it is remains a perpetual question mark..? In a country where 7000 people die every day of hunger, our government spends over rupees 2 lac a day to maintain and protect "Kassab" the butcher of 26/11 Mumbai terror attack. On date it i

For the politicians in this country walking the 'red carpets' has become a business as usual. Today Bollywood icons are more and more eying to walk the 'red carpets' in "Cannes" and "London", rather than trying to remain afloat walking the ramps within the glamour corridors of India. In the post independent India "power and paisa" have surely become a "fevicol ka jod" for the politicians as well as for the affluent in the society. Unfortunately they only constitute just a small fraction of the Pie "India". The rest of this pie constitute the "Aam Aadmi", a tribe that remains constantly harassed by inflation and insecurity as well as poverty and prejudice. For this lot the proverbial "sun shine" seems to remain in perpetual eclipse. Way back in 60's a movement got initiated by the peasants and tribals in this country to fight against exploitations and atrocities of the zamindars and th

Being an "Aam Aadmi" it will always remain a "common sense" for me to keep promoting "communal harmony" in order to reduce as well avoid any communal disturbance in my immediate neighbour hood. Also it will make a "common sense" for me to work towards "religious tolerance" within the community that I live in, to prevent flare-ups of "religious sentiments. Again it will make a lot of "common sense" for me to devote "quality time" for removing 'cast bias' among the members of the society, so that I don't get tensed up when any member in my family decides to marry outside the 'cast'. It will again be my "common sense" that I muster support from the members of the society to fight against any kind of 'discrimination' based on cast,gender and religion, so that as a "society" we are able to keep alive both in "letter & spirit" the basic values of &q

On a broad day light when I am robbed at the point of gun, nobody comes for my rescue, because I am nobody's business. When I am dying of hunger, nobody bothers to give me a bite off the "loaf" because I am nobodys's business. When I am raped on the streets, nobody walks forward to save my 'honour' because I am nobody's business. However when I fall in 'love' and want to marry my fiancee, who is of the same "Gothra" as I am , 'I' suddenly become everybody's business and soon our "lives" are cut short in the name of "honour killing". It is sad that in a civilized society that we claim to be living in, such 'atrocities' on 'human lives' are receiving "political patronage" both at national and regional levels. Our "politicians bazaar" today remains thriving with vote "banking politics", so much so that the country today has no "political leadership", with
