All the sports lovers of the world are enjoying the on going Beijing Olympics. Chinese sportsmen are at the top of their game like always and have successfully earned most of the Gold in the first half of this sports gala. Not surprising eh?

 

Now come down from China to its neighboring country Pakistan. Hockey is our national sports and our performance in hockey tells a lot about our nation. Every player plays with 3 hockey’s each. One hockey in hand and the remaining two appears some where from their socks. But you cant blame them or can you, considering the wheat crisis in the country I’m sure they don’t get much to eat or drink. Unlike our cricketers who not only not only have the luxury to fancy and expensive stuff to eat, drink and sniff :P

 

But even that is not the only reason that our hockey players displayed below average performance. They are under this inferiority complex, because they don’t get no coverage in the media. The other day my mum told me that the reason we lost in hockey because we don’t have Kabir Khan in the team.

 

I asked her; ‘who?’

 

She said that Kabir Khan, who also coach girls team.

 

But that was Shahrikh Khan in Chak De :P

 

And she was like: So what? He was on our side in the first scene of the film.

 

I was speechless, so I brainstormed a bit and came to this conclusion that the reason of our performance or lack of presence in the Olympics is because of the fact that we are not allowed to play sports that we are actually good at. If they can have gymnastics and athletics in which we are not really good. Then we can play sports like; 

 

  1. Luudo
  2. Gilli Danda
  3. Kho Kho
  4. King
  5. Pithu Baari
  6. Cham Cham
  7. Cheel Uri
  8. Patti
  9. Chuppan Chuppai
  10. Pakram Pakraai
  11. Carem

 

Now the above mention sports/games are equally exciting and fun to play. For example;

King:

 

Players make a ring and shout the word ‘RING’ and jump back. The one in the middle is the potential knockout player so it is his duty jump and touch/kick the foot of the any other player to save his ass from getting knocked out of the game.

 

Pithu Bari:

 

Pithus are medium sized pieces of flat shaped rocks that are place over each other, now the team who looses the toss has to break this pyramid by hitting it with a ball.  After the pyramid is broken down into pieces and on the floor; one team has to rebuilt the pyramid while the other team will fetch the ball and hit the players of the other team (the guys who are rebuilding the pyramid).

 

 

Chuppan Chupai (Hide and Seek):

 

Now this is an international sport. But I would not recommend it, as we cant trust our players activities in front of cameras who will take the responsibility of them while hiding ;) you never know what happens :P  

 

Conclusion:

 

Anyways I hope the Olympics committee should keep these options into consideration because we are desperately in need of some medals. As gold and silver prices are getting higher with every second while I am typing this blog post.

 

 

 

Haha man I exaggerate or what? :P

The other day I was tagged by my ‘half American/half Lahori’ friend Kurri and our fav. pathaan; Khan Shahzad aka Dehogg.

Acc. to this TAG I have to state 2+6=8 interesting attributes about my life style. So here they are:

  1.  While sleeping, I lie on my stomach and place the pillow on my head, which actually kills the very idea of having a pillow :P
  2. I love soccer (read football), and am addicted to Power Soccer on miniclip ;)
  3. When I am bored or sad, I watch stand up comic acts by Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappel and Chris Rock. I told you I am a ‘Brother‘.
  4. There are two type of people in this world: those who stand up and face the music, and those who run for cover. I run for cover.
  5. I love the color black, and it looks good on me too ;)
  6. I have this odd habit of growing a thick beard after every 3rd week for no particular reason. (And then I clean shave it the coming week)
  7. I am into sufi poetry and music
  8. And last and definitely the least, I hate Chineese food.

The other day I had an interesting conversation with R.Sameem. It was something like this;

R.S: I like your write up’s

aMmAr: thanx…me too ;) [ i mocked her a lil]

R.S: You know, you got a gift.

aMmAr: “What good is a gift if it can’t get me money!!”

Today when I opened my inbox, I got the following email;

We all work for money. No doubt but if we love our jobs and your boss or company’s management is understanding and caring then whats wrong in being loyal??
