Give the Games back to the ARMY as what happened in the the asian games.

and the sad part of corruption in india is no one, not a single person(politician) tried in any court uptill now has been convicted. :(

.... half of Delhi is having potholes .. no wonder some of the athletes have pulled out
Yeah, a couple of us were talking about this the other day.

Usain Bolt must be thinking ... one minute I'm racing on the track, next minute...plomp! .... in a pothole with a shattered bone and a shattered career, better stay off of these Games (games people are playing).
Too late for anything, just pray pray and pray ... Amitabh Bacchan style.

More like preparation for examinations ...yaar bahut time hai ...10 hours to go ..7-8 chapters ..no sweat :P - Im guessing thats exactly what he's thinking

But IMO , its not only kalmadi , I wont be surprised if people who have no relations with sports(cwg in general) at all are involved in the slugfest , not to mention - main man fennel is in soup to...and then the old bard says "The strictest of punishment shall be given to the ones found guilty" strictest = 3 years imprisonment (in which 2 years are spent in a hosh posh hospital because of Backpain !

God save the queen ! :D
 
Heard the theme song for CWG composed by A R Rehman. Very western and very bad. C'mon why can't we have something traditional ... Something unique? Why does it always have to be soo bollywoodish? The choreography itself was very bad like as if we are watching some performance in any other Indian awards.

I feel India should showcase/promote their own culture not the one which India has adapted over the years. :(
 
lol... sports are a joke in this country... general govt. officials are saints compared to sports officials...
 
it was expected

it sound like a item song to me

and Rehman said he will do better than Shakira WAKA WAKA
 
India is not ready to host these kind of events.Instead of improving the image of our country,it shows the entire world how corrupt we are.
 
i finally get it , we host a really bad games , all the top atheletes pull out , the second rung atheletes also fall sick or break a few bones ,and India romps home with all the medals ,,yipppeeeeee , its all a part of the master plan to get india to win the medals
 
seems that nothing is going right with these games...even ARR's song is pathetic. Will we ever grow out of that silly obsession with Bollywood?

and that Shiamak Dawar person is overrated beyond imagination!
 
Did you hear about the weightlifting federation?
They are currently banned from competing in international events pending the payment of a fine for doping offences.
The fine amounts to a few hundred thousand dollars which they haven't been able to pay. Until now that is.. The OC of the CWG has given a zero percent interest loan so they can pay off the fine and become eligible to compete again.

The head of the weightlifting federation has gone on record saying that he expected the Indian lifters to come home with a big haul of medals.
Is there no limit to how far we'll fall?

Is not everything a joke these days -- for our government. The law and judiciary process is just a sham. Heck even Raju from Satyam is out [most of the stay was in the hospital for heart attack / problems, but some doctors have cited him as having no heart trouble] on bail. Yes, running a country/nation is no joke, but at least run it corruption free. I literally dread/sh$$ my pants each time I have to walk into a government office for any type of work. Just does not happen without bribing. I can bet you guys, not a thing will happen to Kalmadi/CWG OC and the middle men dealers/vendors who have made a bomb via kick backs, graft, and erroneous tenders/RFIs.

Incidentally I went to Indian Habitat Center (IHC) today. Even that is dug up, that too at the entrance. Delhi is a sorry mess. It seems that pot holes have "road' and not vice-versa.

We had one opportunity to show-off to the world, and our corrupt ministers had a hay-day. Spit on their face. Over a quarter of our salary goes into these b$$$$$$$ pockets.

EDIT:

The main showcase for the opening ceremony will be a balloon which was procured for a hefty amount (again crores). IF it is slightly windy or rainy it will not function. Who the heck was advising these guys. Literally dumb idiots are running the show. Even a 10 year old child living in Delhi knows that the weather in October can be rainy/windy. It shocks me -- the dumbness of our ministers.
