Sports & abuses

Recently I thought let's spend a day watching TV and I failed miserably. I simply could not believe simple stories being blown out of proportion and no one making any sensible talk. Basically topic blown was 'Harbhajan Singh's monkey row with Symonds in recent Indian tour of Down Under'. I don't care what he said, Maa ki or Monkey. I tell you why? I don't even care what Materazzi said to Zidane that made Zidane do the headbutt just minutes away from being 'the greatest'. Anyways, the point is not about what would have been. The point I want to make and it is purely a personal view, is that swearing, abuses or whatever you name it have been, are and would remain a common substance in field of sports. And mind you it is not taking any spirit of the game away. But another important factor has been, call it ironical but as it may be, but its true that public swearing or such a public display is not regarded sportsman like. But few words exchanged are too common to be said untrue or deniable. If you have stepped on to field of any sport, ok may be I should put it as a contact sport or competitive sport or highly competitive individual sport, you just use swear words. Call these words as fillers, just being said for the sake of saying it or may be to push oneself that one step ahead or punish yourself for making that unforced error or missed chance, or the last bit to enrage the opponent. These are there in everyday life. If you are denying it, then you are not living in the real world. This is undeniable truth and the better way is that we accept this fact and get on with our life, on the field as well as off the field. It has been ridiculous that even the players and experts have denied this fact and made something or the other as their bait. Just need to take it easy. The attitude of Aussies as if they hear a slur or abuse for first time is nerving. And attitude of BCCI for not sending (as per reports) a good lawyer in these times when sports law is an evolved field, still point to the fact that administrators are not ready to professionalise, even to the extent of facing ire of own players. But the views expressed and denying the fact that such terms are common and not so foolhardy or nerving. Simply no need to chicken out, its you who made a choice to step on the field, so face the music.
