SELECTED POSTS

This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is actually the index page of this website has grown into a huge database of my almost daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to my heart, including gossips of the most sordid kind. For your convenience, I have posted a list of posts which I thought is pretty informative in my own way that you might find interesting. The list itself may be long but those selected few are the ones I thought drives home the point I wanted to make. Do check them out in MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].


SERIES' SUMMARIES

Sometime in 2004 I began reviewing selected series in an episode by episode way, where I called these reviews EPISODIC THOUGHTS. These thoughts are mostly summaries of each and every episode with my opinion of that episode included in it as well. I may not provide the most in depth summaries but I am very proud of the fact that I could keep the writing on such a long winded basis each and every night for the entirety of the series. I don't do this for each and every series though because it kills a lot of brain cells, mine as well as fellow netizens who often joined in the discussion by posting informative stuff. These thoughts are still open for feedback and discussion. Do check them all out in REVIEWS where it is indicated with an  [E] next to my name.


OFFBEAT STUFF

There is this one section in here that features offbeat stuff that are not entertainment based. The section is known as FUNN STUFF [COMMENTS & OPINIONS].

FIFA World Cup 2006 : The aftermath 
Permanent link Post a Comment

The typhoon came and swept along with it everything in its path. Or so you may think.

Like I predicted, Sir Alex Ferguson said NO to C.Ronaldo's request for transfer or in plain terms, excape from the wrath of the English public. Wayne Rooney insists that he is still ok with C.Ronaldo but was kinda disappointed C.Ronaldo chose to get involved and then wisely summed up the reason because they were not team mates on that day. So Wayne, finally you understood! Figo is still retired, still no news on the Italian football club scandal and ahhh yes...

let me ask you which is worse?

1. insulting someone's mother/sister/race?
2. insulting someone personally?
3. being looked down upon and so that person hurled insults at the person so claimed to be "super arrogant"?
4. head butting someone for being insulted/mother,sister,race being insulted?
5. the head butting incident now becomes the pride of Muslim whatever.

When things get out of hands, things get out of hand. At first the feud between Zizou and that Italian player, Materazzi was personal. Then it became between fans, clubs, sponsors, countries and now listen ... religion. Why must the whole Muslim pride thing must be in every controversy from bombs to suicide attacks and now to insults and head butts?

Zizou said he was insulted, but don't know what insults. Lip readers said he was called "son of a terrorist whore". That's bad. Another version was his sister being called a whore and the Italian has pulled her shirt out. That is as bad. Some said he questioned Zizou's involvement with the French world cup, since he is supposedly Algerian (he's French!). That is also bad. Enough of speculations, I believe it must be racially or family based. Why would a normally calm man like him head butt that guy?

Mr. M of course said he would never insult someone's mother since his mother died when he was young. Which means he could insult someone's sister perhaps? Then he said he is ignorant, he doesn't know about terrorists which implies he must be living in a cave all these years since terrorists are everywhere. Maybe not in Italy I suppose. Then he said he did insult Zizou but those are ordinary insults that are often let off on the pitch. I believe insulting one's mother is one of those oridnary insults. How many times have you heard in a day someone's mother being insulted? Right, many times. It's like a verb. But why is FIFA investigating Zizou only and may even strip him off the Golden Ball award? Since Mr M admites to insulting Zizou, shouldn't Mr M be investigated and found credible, then give him a red card? I mean shouldn't the provocateur be in as much fault, in fact more at fault than the attacker? If Zizou must be punished, so must the person hurling the insult.

And all these because Mr M feels his pride was insulted when Zizou, according to his own account was "super arrogant" and said if Mr M wanted his shirt (Mr M was seen pulling Zizou's shirt, some said even twisting his nipple!) he can wait until the end of the game. Is that such a bad insult that you must then feel compelled to hurl an even worse personal insult of the demeaning kind?

Of course Zizou was wrong to head butt that Mr M, but since Mr M admitted to insulting Zizou, I guess there are two sides to every story. Listen to both and make your judgment.

The world awaits Zizou's side of the story.
