‘Shut up’ said he

The atmosphere was almost electric at the committee meeting. The politically appointed head of the committee who thinks he is the know-all wanted to find out if the news had reached the press. He then turned to the one from the minor community. All know-alls’ wrath befell upon this one man. He wanted him get out of the committee. The accused smartly retorted that the know-all could not do anything about it and pointed out that he too was appointed in the same manner that the know-all came there. Then the know-all said that the other used his money to do the talking and yelled that the money that spent came from his two legged version of the feared four legged animals. When the accused wanted to reply the know-all yet again was at the top of his voice yelling shut-up.

It’s up again


Once again the players are scheduled to meet the person that matters on the second of next month to have a chat about the one who is a big botheration to them and the game as a whole. At the same time players also think that it was he who leaked the details their salary checks to the press.

=They did not come empty handed Some of the players who came from the East Asian Games spectacle had more than enough on their trolleys. So much so the customs imposed heavy duties on them. It was seen some of the players giving away the T-shirts that wore to get some concessions.

Two-in-one

They say two netballers are engaged in a public tussle to get the ‘plus’ mark of that good looking minister. Now he will have to dispense out his justice as to who is better. Some say that both are madly in love with him. Ironically both work under the same roof.

The minister of standing

When the minister arrived at the stadium, even he had to wait standing till a seat was vacant. The VIP room was full of visitors of the new high-ups. After a while some saw the minister berating a so called VIP and giving him a reminder about protocol. At the same time the secretary of the same sport was seen watching the same game out there on the terrace.
