Its only a game....

...its certainly not worth a man's life. I cannot express how much this feel futile to me. All the scandals , all the brand imaging. It appears like we are all drunk in the feeling of self importance. We make heroes out of nothing just so what Brands can sell.
At the end it cost Woolmer his life. I would be sorry enough if Woolmer just drank too much but I will want to quit following the game if there was foul play involved as I am sure a lot of advertisers and gamblers lost a lot of money with Pakistan crashing out.

And finally I pray that everyone learns that coaching Indian and Pakistan while lucrative is not worth their lives.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was some foul play involved. Lets hope that the authorities concerned perform a thorough investigation and that this matter doesn't get relegated to the background on account of the WC 2007 hoopla !
