1.Who decides that calling someone monkey is racial? Symonds and Procter? 2.Does symonds descend from monkey ancestors? 3.Then what about the Darwins' theory of evolution that all mankind developed from monkeys? 4.Is there a neutral witness to clarify whether the word was used? 5.Pull out of ICC if BCCI has any self respect. 6. Why govt should not interfere and take over BCCI from the looters?

You're wrong- humans did not descend from monkeys. But monkeys and humans have common ancestors.

Then we (monkey and humans) both are equal. Why get offended when you are called MOnkey.
BCCI had threatened ICC that if it does not remove the ban on bhajji within 7 days, the tour is cancelled. ICC agreed to review their decision but not within 7 days, and BCCI has agreed to this from what we hear in latest news. If the tour is completed without cancelling the ban, ICC may not review the decision and stick to its stand. BCCI will not be able to do anything once the tour is completed, (BCCI cannot say it will not play in the next tour in some other nation!) Hence the Aussies will escape after doing all the damage. BCCI should not continue tour till Bhajji is cleared. If ICC sticks to its stand, Aussies and ICC will then bear big loss. The financial loss to India will easily be compensated, as we will continue playing cricket. Hope this message somehow reaches the dumb Pawar. He thinks he has achieved something, but does not know that ICC is playing a dirty game of false promises.
Adam Gilchrist says he is thrilled with the Sidney result. Sometime back he walked on his own in a match. How can such a person be thrilled after all that has happened at Sidney?? We has been hearing a lot about the game to be played in the right spirit. Which team is playing in the right spirit the world knows. Why should Kumble talk to Ponting when the spirit is breached by Australia. Can these Aussies be relied for the rest of the series???
Everybody knows that the Aussies induldge in "Sledging" - and when someone gives it back to them, they run to the teacher crying like schoolboy brats.Anyway, all the incidents have made them realise that this sort of thing cannot go on. Both teams should climb down and make peace in the interest of the great game that is "Cricket". The "Racist and "Abusive" charges should be dropped by both teams.

Looks like sledging is taught at the Australian Cricket Academy under the guise of Mental disintegration. Now they have added appeal management to the curiculum, this was put to test in Sidney.
The latest admission by Symonds that if a friend of his makes a racist remark it is okay by him but the same remark made by a match opponent hurts him. This shows the maturity of the man. And to think that everyone is wasting so much time on this eccentric person's biases is ridi- culous, not that Harbhajan did ever make a racist remark. I think, whatever the outcome, BCCI must put its foot down & pull out,just to make sure this kind of farce does not repeat again and the Indian players become a victim of somebody's eccentricity or personal biases.
ICC decided that WWF is the only way to decide this series..the following is teh schedule:
1. Hayden vs Pankaj singh 2. jaques vs jaffer 3. Ponting vs sehwag 4. Hussey vs Yuvi 5. MClarke vs Dravid 6. Gilly vs Dhoni 7. SClarke vs Ishant 8. Lee vs Bhajji(his present form is akin to a furious fast bowler) 9. Jhonson vs RP 10. Hogg vs Kumble
