Get over the HANGOVER.....

" India is more important to us than Pakistan : US " was the front page headline in a leading Indian daily. Really, its just another story, but when we dig deep into it one will find that it depicts the psyche of educated India. Is there even a comparison between India and Pakistan..... why do we go ga ga when Uncle Sam says that we are more important.... We have to realise, its not their choice.... it is the need of the hour..they have to be with us.....

We need to get over the hangover of being a third world country.....Evey survey, every statement from a western bureaucrat, anything that praises India and that our day is arrived is highlighted in all news papers and news channels... Have a look at some more examples :

BUSH URGES AMERICANS TO LEARN HINDI : In a long speech, Mr. Bush just mentioned that Americans may have to learn Hindi and Chinese to get closer to their culture.
'What's the big deal then'

INDIA TO BE A SUPERPOWER BY 2020 : A stupid survey but XYZ agency of Financial research in the US...

INDIA IS VERY CLOSE TO MY HEART says XYZ : Any Hollywood celebrity that comes to India is asked " How do you feel about coming here?" Here are the standard answers ( which prompt this headline): "Well Its different and its intriguing". "Its really nice, I like the food and the culture"...

FOLKS... Let us show some self-confidence now. If you are doing well, people are bound to talk about you. The last thing that we want is to get carried away with all this talking. Please do not give importance to such stupid headlines.... THEY PRINT IT BECAUSE WE LIKE READING IT.. Please get over this mentality...

Just let the Men in Blue be...

India lost the final wicket against Sri Lanka at 02:45 am and a mob attacked Zaheer Khan's restaurant at Pune at 03:00 am. Angry 'fans' stormed the under construcion house of Dhoni in Ranchi and tried to demolish it.

Now the question is .. are this people really fans of Indian cricket.??? I don't think so... Every man who is criticizing the team needs to understand that it is a game.. for God's sake, people lose, people win, whats the big deal in that..... Two lost games makes them a disastorous team, everybody starts criticizing the selection process and the domstic cricket system. Where were these people when India reached the Final of the last world cup with the same system being in place. I am not of the view that the selection process and the zonal cricket system are perfect, but the fact that every Indian needs to keep in mind is that true fans are those that support the team during its bad phase.....

If at all we cant support them, can't we jus LET THEM BE......!!!
