Common Wealth Games--New records

aug 17th, 2010

i am also reminded of the old joke.

so this african politician and indian politician are discussing loot, in the latter's office. 

the indian says: "look out that window. see that bridge? 30%, that was my take". the african is suitably impressed.

a year or two later, the indian goes to africa to visit the african politician. he says, "look out the window." the indian sees a river. "see that bridge?" says the african. 

"what bridge, i don't see a bridge", says the indian. "yeah, 100%, that was MY take", beams the african.

actually the african is kalmadi, the nehru dynasty, the assorted lalu prasads, arjun singhs and other villains.

I think in this Common Wealth Games  many world records in athletics will be broken and new records will be set.

For the 100 meters track- our contractors would have laid only 90 meters and collected money for 100 meters  etc-- and Global athletes will  be able to smash  all existing records . From that angle this will be a memorable "games".

Welcome to the new era in sports--
