  1. all such technicalities like right hand court etc notwithstanding - leander is a better player than bopanna even with one hand tied behind his back. the audacity of his nincompoop bopanna just amazes and infuriates me
  2. I am sure AITA will stop this non sense in the june 11th meeting. send sania bopanna in mixed doubles - thats fine.but men's doubles -it has to be bopanna n leander
  3. mr bopanna you dont deserve to wear India colors. you are nothing more than an underachieving stooge of your shitty mentor bhupathi. leander still deserves to be in any men's doubles team India sends. there is no emotion or sentiment in this. its hard cold fact. So AITA should shoot down his proposal. for every other sport - the federations decide the team. why should tennis be any different. And Sania has conveniently forgotten that its leander who forged the partnership of sania and hingis.
  4. that was then. heard roger say in a sports programme this week- that hingis has approached her to play mixed doubles -but he is not sure he will be up to it due to the 3 match per day thingy. the programme also said it is more likely that hingis will team up with warinka. dunno if roger will change his mind or not. but would loved to have seen federer and hingis play together.
  5. Sushil Kumar 's plan of taking the shortcut to the Olympics ( probably hatched by his fil Satpal) might cost India more than a medal. In the dilemma of the trial - the Belarus trip of the squad had to be cancelled . Yogeshwar Dutt says in 2012 the Belarus trip helped him a lot. Then a trip was scheduled to Poland. But even that is now in doldrums. Yogi is extremely frustrated and says it might be difficult now for the wrestlers to perform at their peak in the Olympics due to this loss of time. WFI has to take the blame for dragging it's feat so long on the trial question
  6. Well if bhupathi forces people to have bad relations with paes coz manages them - that cannot be a reason to drop Leander. And the Olympic is nobody's personal fiefdom. Bopanna cannot insist on his favourite partner if that doesn't serve India's interest. AITA will shoot him down.
  7. Dude are you seriously suggesting saketh is better than Leander? I hope not
  8. Seeing a lot of disrespect for paes in this forum. Without beating around the bush - let me say on most mornings- paes' fecal matter has more tennis talent than the nobody bopanna. And people saying paes' latest slams are coz of hingis - my question is why does hingis continue to team up with paes if he is not good enough? Why did Navratilova and hingis team up with him? Why does bopanna mostly have to team up with nobodies? Paes is the best doubles player we have at the moment - rankings cannot erase that fact. And the Olympics is not bopanna's personal vacation - his choice will have to be vetted by the Indian tennis federation. Bhupathi has never been able to live down the fact that once he parted ways with Leander - he could never match paes' success. And he uses his business links to pressurise players into supporting him over paes. Hope the federation sees through that arm twisting
  9. This says the court hearing will continue on the 30th. The sordid saga continues. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/more-sports/wrestling/Narsingh-selection-over-Sushil-for-Rio-was-fair-WFI-tells-HC/articleshow/52469340.cms
  10. whats happening on the sushil kumar narsingh yadav scene? wasnt a decision due today?
  11. I am so frustrated by the opaque scoring system in Boxing. while wrestlling has become objective fast and exciting with great transparent scoring and immediate system of pretests and its redressals -boxing has gone the other way with scrapping of the protest system(had they done that before london 2012 - vikash krishnan miight have become an olympic medalist)- opaque scoring - extremely subjective judgements and complete room for cheating bias ans prejudice. you just have sit there and hope the judges dont cheat - in close fights -it is completely up to them.
  12. Leander might participate? why only might? and isnt bopanna participating too?
  13. pooja is up against savannah marshal though - tough tough fight
  14. Sonia Lather safely through to the next round. We seem to have some neat boxers in these non olympic categories.can only augur well for the future . hope our lone remaining boxer in an olympic category - Pooja Rani -wins too today
  15. Nikhat through to the next round in dominant style. really liked this girl's boxing and attitude. A star in the making.
  16. the last line is the saddest for future prospects - " At the last moment a team was put up, so how can we expect results?" http://www.rediff.com/sports/report/exclusive-mary-kom-was-robbed-of-a-win/20160521.htm
  17. sarita lost fair and square. after winning the first couple of rounds -she ran out of energy from the third onwards
  18. sarita devi's bout coming up now
  19. yeah. she will always be a legend. if the olympics featured women's boxing in her prime -she could have been a multiple gold medalist. Respect to a great daughter of India
  20. mary kom lost. i cant believe 2 judges each gave first two rounds to the german. boxing is a farce these days
  21. second round was all mary -yet two of them gave that to the german. who was evading all the time. day light robbery coming up.
  22. mary kom's match at around 3.30 pm today i think. 9th bout
  23. it shouldnt be upto what they like. I hope Rohan is not thinking of something like opting for bhupathi - should rohan get into top ten and get to choose his partner. this is not a amateur club tournament that you come out of retirement out of three years with a big paunch and get to go to the olympics just coz your pal (whose business interests you also manage) is in the top ten. men's doubles team has to be rohan and leander. in mixed doubles - if there is no chance of leander and sania pairing getting a quota -only then shouls there be a sania rohan pairing,
  24. I think Leander will always be a better player than Rohan.
