My friend do you really feel Iam wrong in being frustrated? Do you think its wrong to be frustrated when your country misses out on the olympics and the culprit gets away scot-free.Do you think its wrong to be feel frustrated when you hear of Subhash Dixit's death?Please visit my blog and follow the link which chronicles his sad death.And then is it wrong to feel frustrated when the powers that be dont have a single paisa for him but have money to build a gym for parliamentarians? I love sports and sportspersons and feel frustrated every time they are treated like this. This is just how I am.

U r totaly corect. Many times i saw d news like national level swimmer,football player etc. living a live of hell bcoz of financial crisis.... One of d reason is tht d gr8 citizens of our gr8 country ,are interestd only in cricket.... Aftr d release of a muvi lik Chak De or Goal, they wil giv attention 4 a while and again they'l b bck 2 their basic,so calld cricket

I think true sportsperson will not whine about money not being in his sport. How many of us make money doing things we really like doing. Hell i wonder how many cricketers are actually passionate about playing cricket.

making money and the passion abt sports are totally different. very few lucky ppl are paid heavily while their passsionate about sports otherwise its just either making money or passion about the game.

Guys we have digressed big time here. I am not talking about money sportspersons make from the sport. I was hurt at the lack of action taken by the sports minister after Indian missed out on the olympic berth and his taking refuge in the Olympic charter. For someone who has broken numerous laws in life it is hypocritical to talk of following rules and regulations.

I was also hurt by the apathy the BCCI showed for Subhas Dixit. This is one of the richest sports boards in the world. And the cricketer in question is a former captain of India's U-15 side. They dont have money to give to his poor family but have 2.5 crores to spend on a gym for politicians. Also because a sportsman deserves the gym more than a parliamentarian
