Royal Losers Bangalore.

Agonising, it has been over the last month. I should have known. A side full of old internationals and unknown locals could not have fared better. But you don't back a side based on it's strength. Do you?( but do you back it just because it belongs to your city? Sorry- I have never been the man for debates) But to save some post-match lows you better pick a winning horse. Royal Challengers Bangalore have been a challenge to none but their owner. I have tried to avoid watching them on television. But when you have a 400 square-foot( feet? damn-I give a rabbit's foot)house, a sadistic sibling- backs rajasthan royals and takes immense pleasure in watching your team lose when you are around- and mother someothercity ( a la mother India) you can run but you can't hide.

I am polythoughtous ( yet monogamous). I solicit multiple thoughts at once. Here's another. It's nice to think you aren't a hypocrite. But not often can you follow it in letter and spirit ( Royal Challenge whisky ?). The other day a chic at office asked me if i supported her team( the team rides at night they tell me). Honestly I hated her side for their eccentricities and egoes -especially of the owner, and wished they had lost every match. But I am sure you will understand if told you i answered her in the affirmative and went on to wonder aloud how talented her side was. Like I always have maintained, one better be a hypocrite than repel a chic.

Back to Bangalore team- I will try and move on. I am trying think it does not make practical sense to stick on. Dr. Malya has a bevy of long-legged women to console him every time the team loses. And who do i have ? I will now go drown my sorrows with a drink, perhaps a drink he doesn't own.
-Chaww.

P(j)S:
Why are the Royals always sad?
Becojjj their blood is blueeeeee- yippeeeee...

What is watershed?
It is the event in which Dravid sheds gallons of sweat as his bowlers get whacked in the rear even by the tail-enders of the opposition- This event will mark Dravid's unceremonious exit from the corporate cricket.

What is aftermath?
Hmm physics?
