FAILURE IS A *******


Are u guys trying to find out wat the asteriks mean??Scroll Down if u r too impatient to wait.. Well!!u guys ll soon agree to wat i mean by tat title..Now i ve decided not to fill up lines by sayin why i dint blog fr a long time coz one of my frens feel tat half of my post is filled by tat only..I jus came across this picture of Dravid taken during the World cup which unfortunately turned out to be a disaster for us..We can clearly see some photography gimmicks on it jus to show tat he was crying in tat match where we lost against the Lankans.Wat struck me most was not the picture but the gruesome fact tat follows it..Dravid,who has always been nations pride, a person whom Indians have always been proud of..They had infact risen him to level of being called " THE WALL" of Indian cricket..Wat happened to all those slogans which people carried about Dravid?? How cud people lose all their hopes against a man whom they called the WALL so easily..It is as if his lifetime s hardwork was judged by jus one single match..

I know WORLD CUP s soon gonna end..So why am i blogging on this topic now??Tats becos
its not jus one incident , i can quote ,many such incidents where i ve time n again felt tat

" SUCCESS HAS MANY FATHERS
BUT
FAILURE IS A BASTARD"

When u succeed there ll be umpteen number of people to back u up and let u know their imperceptible contributions to it..But wen u fail the same set of people ll run away jus to hide
the fact they were also responsible in ur failure..When we were winnning a series of tournaments people felt they had selected the right captain and it was their decision tat was working out. They felt it was because we had some experienced players like Sachin, Dravid n Ganguly we were among the top teams..N nw if u all remember these are the same people (who call themselves cricket fanatics or ardent fans of cricket) who carried mock funerals of the players who have given their life for Indian Cricket..Never did anyone think tat when we, jus an audience who are miles away from them n fr whom this game is jus an entertainment for a day can get so upset by the defeat, how agonising it must ve been for the players ..The whole county was against them.. The fact is , we don deserve to be called as true fans..Fans r supposed encourage the players during their tuff times..The players don want us to cheer for them wen they r already piling up centuries..They don expect us to celebrate their victory..Wat they expect is a motivation wen they are down..
I know it was just a game n Indians ve forgotten all those defeats and are awaiting a fresh new series..I jus wanted to substantiate the fact wt some incident..Cud nt think of a better example having seen all the criticism Dravid has faced..But the sad part is that Life is always like tat..There are certain things in life tat can seldom change, so the best way is we abide by the fact and move on..

    hey good post!
    All said and done i wud still not blame the fans for reacting the way they did,cos the players enjoy the hero treatment they receive when they win matches, then they wud have to deal with this as well!However the selectors and the board shud be fair and balanced while taking decisions!And dravid as the captain was at the receiving end, poor guy, but he did accept full responsibility for the loss unlike ppl like greg chappel who conveniently played the blame game!

    good one considering the time it came!!They have been receiving herp treatment all along!!!The fans were wrong in worshipping them as gods and so were they in screaming at them also!!!AS far as cricket is concerned emotions runs high in our country..The players should hae played a lot better...and so should v be supporting them when things are falling apart..Atleast they have thought of having sme 'introspection'.V should be supporting Rahul n his boys at this time so that as a captain he will be able to build a better team this time..And come what may Rahul simply rocks and he has been our best batsmen in the past 5 r 6 yrs...n of all the players he does not deserve such treatment 4m the media and the pple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hey great post...keep going...!!! being a great cricket fan i cant leave this topic without commenting,I ve been following ths game ever since childhood...India being a cricket crazy nation,they expect a lot from the 11 key players who battle it out in the centre, every match they play its been watched by million fans all over the country.. So its obvious wen a good team like india loses to Bangladesh tat too in WorldCup,biggest tournaments,crictics start turning its tide over the team,captain nd so on..Indians could have played better,last WC indians reached d finals, now got chucked in the 1st round,, all fate....but its total waste blaming them.Gone is gone...So its upto the fans to give moral support rather than burning player photos nd involving in violence...And im sure ths trend will keep continuing, no1 can change these ppl...Atleast we ppl shd think sensibly and support India at tuff times...!!!!
