Michael Schumacher: From his first race to his last ferrari....


No matter what happens this sunday, Micheal Schumacher will go down as the greatest driver ever to hit the formula one circuit and this posting is just my way of paying tribute to mark the end of the most successful career in formula one history.
I may not understand the complex technology involver behind the wheels, but one thing is for sure beyond a shadow of doubt that the most important component in a racing car is the man behind the wheels and i guess that made all the diference in winning and loosing.
Schumachers pure speed, his risk taking ability, his supreme confidence, his love for the job and his high level of commitment has helped him to achieve those seemingly impossible heights which his fellow drivers can only dream off.
After winning 91 of his 248 grand prix and claiming 68 pole positions and capturing five drivers title for ferrari and two for benetton..it has proved that Michael Schumacher is indeed a genius who knows his profession like no one else and has single handedly turned the sport inside out and upside down forever for good.
Many formula one drivers will come and go and who knows his record of 7 magical titles may be eclipsed but the writing is clear on the wall..that he is indeed one in a billion or let me put it this way..ONE IN A GENERATION....
His charisma, his flamboyance, and his contagious enthusiasm will surely be missed.
thanks Michael for all those spectacular sunday afternoons....

Plz don go.....

Test cricket's legendary bowler, Shane Warne retired from international competition after the Ashes 2006, thus marking the end of the most glamorous and controversial carrers in the sports glorious history. I think Shane Warne is the grestest cricketer ever (from the time i am watching and following cricket) and it was the perfect retirement party for the showman who made is debut against India way back in January 1992. To take 1000+ wickets in both the versions of the game is simply breathtaking and salute to your versatility, skills, hardwork, mental strength and flexibility. This once-in-life time champion will continue to inspire a generation of kids to take up the art of leg spin. Thanks Warne for giving us everything you could ever give and in the process entertaining millions worldwide and i was privileged enough to watch ur flippers, zooters, wrong uns with bated breath. i just wish u were an Indian !!!

Fate had other ideas...

At the end of the 90 th minute, we had only one deserving winner …. As far as Germany is concerned their razor sharp attack at the front proved to be the decisive factor in the game…and the way they are playing now,  they can go very far in the tournament… As far as FIFA is concerned, it’s high time that they start taking help of TECHNOLOGY and shed their orthodox inhibitions….That was a CRIMINAL in such a crucial encounter…LAMPARD indeed scored….FISH.. As far as England goes, I wonder how come the same set of players can play so sublime football for their respective clubs and at the same time can dish out such a DISASTER for their country. TIME TO INTROSPECT! And as far as I am concerned, the world cup is almost over for me…and along with it it’s time to get a HAIR CUT, very patiently grown for the last 4 months in support of my team… p.s. Wayne Rooney, I hate Manchester United but I stood by you and by your pathetic performance till the end….Now, I hate you 2…..try playing...
