Bravo Zidane! Aseem N wrote this at 2:55 pm • Filed under Sports •

Here is the infamous head-butt that more than two-three billion people watched on their television sets where Zidane goes BANG on Materazzi.

This is what left the whole world wondering what made the cool-headed Zidane go so violent? What really did Materazzi say to Zidane? Definitely not ‘Chloromint Kyon Khaate hai?’ as most sms forwards envisage.

This is what a deaf lip reader interpreted for BBC:
“You’re the son of a terrorist whore”

Lip-reading Experts also had their interpretation to chip in and they put it this way:
Materazzi told Zidane to “calm down” before accusing him of being a “liar” and wished “an ugly death to you and your family”. This was followed by “Go f*** yourself”

While Zidane confirms that Materazzi uttered some “hard words” against his mother and sister.

Well I thought that the Italian footballer wanted Zidane’s shirt as he had held it for a while. This is how Materazzi explains himself. Haha :lol:

What remains a controversy still is the conduct of the ace Algerian born French footballer right in the finals of the World Cup which was also the last game of his career, which led him out of the game with a red card against his name. With an investigation team being set up, Zidane might as well lose his Golden Ball. It’s really sad to see such an ending to the football career of one of the best strikers around. Most believed that it was not the best thing to do just 7 minutes before the half time end and Zidane should have maintained his dignity that he had hard earned for soooo many years.

But I feel that there are a few things that are bigger than football. And one shouldn’t care even if it’s the world cup final! I am glad to see my football hero live upto his dignity and family values. Bravo Zidane… go again! And for Materazzi shame on you. :x

Now that I wont see him sprinting on the green fields, dodging opponents and striking those magical goals, what I will cherish for life is all my video collection of Zidane on field… And yea not to forget the head butt one… ;)

Here is some tongue in cheek stuff for the Italian supporters. For those who want to have a lighter laugh over the head-butt: MAKE IT LIKE ZIDANE… VIDEO

For the French fans you are in consideration too… Go try this, if you feel Zidane should have done it to Materazzi a little more number of times: HIT MATERAZZI

With my last words… Zidane you will be always remembered for all your passion for the game on-field and off-field. And definitely for all your actions on-field that sent you off the field… ;)

Dear Terrorist Aseem N wrote this at 12:54 pm • Filed under India •

Interesting letter I got in my mail. Definitely worth a read…

Dear Terrorist,

Even if you are not reading this we don’t care. Time and again you tried to disturb us and disrupt our life - killing innocent civilians by planting bombs in trains, buses and cars. You have tried hard to bring death and destruction, cause panic and fear and create communal disharmony but everytime you were disgustingly unsuccessful. Do you know how we pass our life in Mumbai? How much it takes for us to earn that single rupee? If you wanted to give us a shock then we are sorry to say that you failed miserably in your ulterior motives. Better look elsewere, not here.

We are not Hindus and Muslims or Gujaratis and Marathis or Punjabis and Bengaliies. Nor do we distinguish ourselves as owners or workers, govt. employees or private employees. WE ARE MUMBAIKERS (Bombay-ites, if you like). We will not allow you to disrupt our life like this. On the last few occassions when you struck (including the 7 deadly blasts in a single day killing over 250 people and injuring 500+ in 1993), we went to work next day in full strength. This time we cleared everything within a few hours and were back to normal - the vendors placing their next order, businessmen finalizing the next deals and the office workers rushing to catch the next train. (Yes the same train you targetted)

Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood donating volunteers were seen outside various hospital, where most of the injured were admitted. By 12 midnight, the hospital had to issue a notification that blood banks were full and they didn’t require any more blood. The next day, attendance at schools and office was close to 100%, trains & buses were packed to the brim, the crowds were back. The city has simply dusted itself off and moved on - perhaps with greater vigour.

We are Mumbaikers and we live like brothers in times like this. So, do not dare to threaten us with your crackers. The spirit of Mumbai is very strong and can not be harmed.
Please forward this to others. U never know, by chance it may come to hands of a terrorist in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq or wherever, we dont care and if he is literate enough, he can read this message which is specially meant for him!!!

With Love, From the people of Mumbai (Bombay) INDIA
