Two extravaganzas started simultaneously. One is over, and the other on the verge of it. The internationally more celebrated and adored one, the IPL2009 produced some topsy turvy tales which i assume is known to all. The other event, on the other hand, started before it actually started, and the concerned were already in the nets. Transfers (if i may call them that) had started an year in advance because one half of the Top Team ( lets call them TT) thought the more important half liked a foreign team's skipper more than that half. So that half, which we can call the Left half, quit the team and formed its own team recruiting players from teams who were threatened by the rise of moviestars who had learnt how to play. And teams which the fans had ditched in favor of TT's rival party also gave word to join with the Left half. They then called themselves the " Third Burp"
TT's rival, lets call them the Rusty's team , on the other hand decided that in order that TT falters in the competition, challenged TT's leader to a no-holds-barred wrestling match. But TT's leader was already in a hospital. So Rusty tried to ignite the passion in TT by calling their leader weak. The viewers were excited about the prospects of such a brutal match-up. But as per the team physio's advise TT's man kept away. So Rusty called for a debate. But even for that TT's physio felt it unwise to waste energy speaking before an important competition. As a result viewers got frustrated and broke into practice sessions and started throwing shoes at them.
Meanwhile players from another team ( called Superintendent) decided to join with TT to make up for the loss of its Left half in return for sawing off the legs of another team called Busted Superintendents. It became so difficult for TT to meet SP's demand such as influencing the ruling body to report the Busted-SP for suspect bowling action. So the superintendent got fed up and joined up with two smaller teams called '"Really Just Dead" and " Life's Jokingly Pathetic" who had quit TT because they wouldn't play in enough matches. They called themselves "Fourth Frock".
And so the Third Burp and the Fourth Frock sat on the wall, though FF was still humpty-dumpty, and if it fell it hoped to fall back on TT's side. And TB held press conferences just to tell everyone the same thing, everyday, everytime, every channel, every paper - ' we wont allow Rusty or TT to win'. When reporters asked their strategy for that, the reply made everyone bang their heads - ' we will inform all the fans not to allow Rusty or TT to win'. And another reporter would ask - ' ok but what will u give the fans for doing that?', the reply was even more astounding - ' we will give them table leaders that are not Rusty or TT'. That summed up TB's publicity.
Then the competition ended and TT retained their title. Rusty crumbled. Fourth Frock's velcro got loose and fell to the floor exposing shame. And the Left half and co had nothing left.
So what should we ask of our new league leaders? How about these?? :
1. First of all, protecting all viewers by stengthening its center-backs comprising of Nani-Sung Giggs (NSG), Ricardo Andrei Wembley (RAW) and Ingimar Berbatov (IB)
2. As all games are built on ticket-revenue, and people need money to buy tickets, and people need jobs to get money, TT must build new stadiums and roads to those stadiums and grounds so that people may work for it.
3. All players need a healthy diet, and one must eat for it, and one needs something eatable to eat, and farmers are needed to grow eatable things, and farmers can't grow them if they kill themselves or have no money. TT must continue and refine their good deeds of wiping out their loans by donating their match fees on a more holistic basis.
4. All matches are preceded by weather reports. In order to make sure such reports are credible TT need to find solutions and work with foreign teams to prevent 'climate change'.
5. And personally i feel all leagues and competitions need a mascot. Our league's mascot is the Tiger. Without real Tigers the mascot is just something like Mickey Mouse. So TT, i wish, doesn't make the Tiger a Mickey Mouse.
So Save the Tiger..........
