Why do we continue to torture ourselves...

Disclaimer/Warning: This post is coming from me sitting infront of the TV watching India being easily decimated by Bangladesh...this is not a humorous post, I repeat NOT a humorous post...so if you're looking for cheer- look elsewhere (i'd suggest saynotocrack.com)

ok, now to the post- Why do we poor followers of the gentlemen's game contnue to raise our hopes whenever the indian "boys" don the heavily paid for, plastered with sponsors' logos jerseys (yes, they have the Indian flag somewhere, hmm, i think somewhere between the sahara logo, and the nike swoosh...no that was some interference in the TV signal...but cmon, it must be there somewhere)

I don't grudge the bucks these guys make, I guess they're extremely talented and awesome superstar cricketers with tremendous hand-eye coordination and stupendous power...but somehow when they shrivel up and collapse against relatively inexperienced (oh cut the crap, against terrible teams, who make 1/10th, nay 1/20th of what the poorest of our cricketers make)teams, it just hits you in the guts...

Aww cmon people lets have a miracle, show us that the demi-god status is not entirely unjustified :(
