In God's Name: Decoding Sachin Tendulkar Troller's Mind



Myopia. For Ophthalmologists it may be a disease or ailment, but for us it is wired into our DNA, as ingrained as paan stains on our country's walls or potholes on roads. Better get used to it.

Detractors say cricket is played in few countries, but aren't they one of the most populous ones. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh ... all eternal baby boomers and look at the way we fill up stadiums and stay put for the whole day (and leave them filthy), we have the numbers on our side and the world better take note of it. We care two hoots for who is the best baseball or rugby player (memory cells are in short supply as we refused to grow up), but they better know our God.

Don't know which yeda (fool) termed cricket a gentleman's game. For us trollers any form of propriety is alien and any form of decorum are meant to trampled at the altar of message boards. Woe betide if anyone tries to insult our god. Period.

If provoked (it could happen for just about anything) we replicate the nuisance pattern of locusts or crows on cyber space, don't even dare to test our prowess. For the victims the spam messages and memes we leave behind has the same effect as the sardine smell - the stink refuses to go away.

PS: Sorry Alia Bhatt, didn't mean to insult you. But then you happen to be the dumbest bimbo in contemporary Bollywood so we had to invoke your reference to run down a dumber sportswoman who didn't know our God's name.
