Paying the price of forgetting my nationality!!

If you are an Indian here is a big suggestion. "Never forget that you are an Indian, try to be cool and go and play flag football".Golu did his bit and tried to remind me so much that my body is made only to play cricket and not physical sports like amru futball. But I was like "koi farak nahin painda". Par farak to padata hi hai bhai.. Here is the result of the tournament.

matches played: 2
result: lost both

my contribution: I was a receiver and the game plan was to fake first and then run towards th post and the Quater back throws a long pass. I did the same, out-ran the guy covering me, jumped high up and caught the ball above my shoulders. In the mean time all the defence team was on me but I still heroically dogdged them and when they almost brought me down I jumped and stretched myself full length to get a spectacular touch down and in the process i badly injured my knee badly.

OK..this is what I would have liked the story to be!!!! In reality I was running , turned back to see where the ball is and I don't know how I had twisted my body that when my right foot touched ground I heard kat-kat and thats it. I ended up with a badly sprained knee, missed two days of lab (I dont exactly regret it), got bored and started writting blogs again.

But seriously it is fun :D :D Especially when you go for practise and your american friends talk like "hey!! Panda is natural man" ;) Don't fall for all this crap and just go and do what you are good at - play cricket!!

Anyways guys have a nice thanks giving break!!! Njoy the turkey with your family!!
