football fever is at its peak..with the intensity rising every moment,teams giving everything they have,players putting their futures at stake..n countries comin to a stand-still to watch the world cup.i too ws watchin the matches..the intense quarter finals where teams fought tooth n nail for victory..but as the law of the game goes..someone had to lose..
i watched n rooted for my favourite teams n rejoiced their victories...but then i m too much of a human to ignore the tumultous emotions of grown men...the very same men who were showing all the aggression sumtimes reachin upto d levels of animal instincts crying like little babies whose favourite toys ve been taken away..it ws a stark contrast of human emotions on the field..wid due credit to all the winning teams..my hear goes out to those who lost out..finally its destiny..no one can change that.
well along wid football there's wimbledon too..n i ve made it a point to watch at least the big matches...the other day i ws watching rafael nadal v/s andre agassi...n i ve grown up watchin agassi..n nadal i ve taken a liking 4 him recently.it ws agassi's last wimbledon n sadly he lost this particular third round match.
it ws a match between the rebel and the rebel mellowed down..n both equally mindful of that.the mutual respect shown ws exemplary...
i still remember a young teenaged agassi wid long hair n torn jeans bursting on d world tennis arena..his long earrings n changing hairstyles making as much of a statement as his wonderful strokes on court..today he ws a bald n much sober on wot ws to b his last match playing against a new rebel..nadal in his three-fourths n sleeveless tee..wid a bandana arnd his head and shoulder length hair..it ws as if tennis had come to a full circle 4 agassi...
even tho he lost d match...i m sure everyone watching had jz one thing in mind...the legend lives on...
