Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

Well, not yet...

I, along with millions of Arsenal fans worldwide, am waiting with bated breath for the Goal that will put us in the lead against Newcastle.. and also, for the maddening effect a sport can bring over you..

Though not for the people following the Indian expedition to England.. One step out of the backyard, and the Indian lion, becomes the Indian kitty.. Getting beaten at a sport is acceptable; but getting whipped.. and that too, three times!!!! that's just not acceptable..

But no such shows from our favorite team will tarnish the fun you can have playing cricket.. I had mine today, after a long time.. And as usual, was out Golden Duck.. :D

But I have to say, I was unusually good with the ball.. Sent in three overs to return with figures of 3 wickets for 4 runs.. ;)

talk about talent..:P

But to talking about real talent.. I saw a boy, more of a kid than a boy, at the ground today, all of five foot.. And he sent a free kick over a wall of bigger kids and into the imaginary net.. And that was not the amazing part.. He sent one in what you would call "bend it like beckham" style.. Power, curve, elegance.. Everything into a single kiss of the foot on a ball, from a talented boy, who was aptly wearing a jersey with No.7 on the back, with the name as "Ronaldo"..

Well, its nearly an hour into the match, and still not that blast of euphoria I need.. Here's to hoping that I get it at the end of the next half an hour..

So, adiós para hoy amigo...
