Sports Overloaded

Never considered myself to be a sports fanatic. Never was, actually. I have fond memories of me sitting under a tree, trying to make sense out of an Arundhati Roy, and several classmates calling me to join the ongoing game, much perturbed on losing out on such a fine athlete...
But how times have changed. The past two weeks have been a life-transforming period. God bless soccer, and god bless the World Cup. No longer does TV seem suitable for anything other than sports. Guzzling beer and shouting aloud during a soccer match... all seems so natural now.
And not just soccer. There's Alonso strutting his stuff, troubling Schumi. And the women's semi-finals at good ol' Wimbledon have been no less exciting than a proper catfight. Hell....I even watched golf for an hour recently....and thank god, the list does NOT include cricket (read: the dead sport)

Yaay!....TV's fun again....
