@Dolby Regarding cheering of Ice hockey team, The event mentioned by you was held in Kuwait and made sure there were atleast 10 people from my company where taken to cheer for the team and would proudly say that 14 people over shadowed 100 Kuwaiti people during Kuwait vs India match. Even our coach was stunned to see us over power them. I have the puck has the souvenir of that tournament. Agree every bit mentioned above....I refrained from participating since I felt really bad with the comments.... To call a person traitor at bad times and patriotic at good times is such a shame on our fans... this event reminds me of the Mir Ranjan Negi who was accused of throwing the match....such a pathetic way to treat our athletes.

In middle of all this my earlier news is confirmed.... Sania/Hingis break their partnership......

Huge breaking News:------ Effect of Olympics or Paes effect... Sania n Hingis have broken the team and have registered with separate players for US Open.... This is a news from tennisforum.com though can't confirm the news yet....

swimming is over.....Both of our players have finished with low timing...Though Sajan Prakash was just away from NR...Good effort....

Kill my Roommate.....He came out @1.30 min and told India will loose....and Ghosh we lost....

Great job from Dipa.....Great to see a Indian in Gymnastic Final....Hope it would create more gymnast and carry forward....

Superb performance from Dipa ....Hope This would change the image of Gymnastics in India. We need to have a male partner and so to make it a regular sport in India. Lone person cant get evolution but create a sense... Great day in the history of Indian sport....Equivalent to a gold..... Proud of the achievement....

Very weak uneven bars....

8 will qualify for the finals....

India trail by 2 goals against Japan after the first half....

Surprise of the day...China not getting any gold....

We all over here are over reacting of the missed chances....We have to first show sportsman spirit...The essence of Olympics. All are there to get medals, Some have to win and some have to loose. We can show disappointment but not accuse or talk ill about the people who have sacrificed a lot to be just there. I can understand the disappointment of the fans, But we have to put ourselves in their shoes and think. My example of yesterday I was crumbling when Jitu and Mira were performing and was so hyper then imagine their nerves n pressure. So we all have to be calm and show disappointment in a better way.

My Day #1 Analysis Worst Performance :- Chanu A sure medal went up in smoke....Blame her totally for not getting the medal, Best chance for her n the country to have got a medal. Best Performance :- Sania/ Prarthana Well played and took the match to the 3rd Set. Though Dattu performace was the best result. I had to give to the spirit both showed in the match.. Hockey was not good performace but to break a jinx of 12 yrs without victory is a good feeling.

Paes / Rohan loose in 1st Rd...Bound to happen with so much negativity around these both....

Mouma Das struggling in TT in R128....

India score 1 - 0 end of 1st Qtr...

IND vs IRL started......

Dattu is 15/18 qualified to QF of Single Scull in Rowing....

Official website is good so far....

Dattu unless he improves drastically looks good only till QF...Hope he improves to give a good fight. I know he has better timing of 7.04 or so...QF will be more faster...

@Kiruphagaran That is called branding...Even after ISL majority of the Indians would struggle to name 3-4 Indian names. Take any sports all we have 2-3 names in all events and rest are not showcased. That is why we have people like Jwala trying her best to get into limelight. Force people to know you, Make yourself more present in social media, Be more presentable. Try to market yourself then only people will know you. Because only Sachin, Dhoni or Kohli have been top brands so they are role models and rest of the people only in books..

3 hours to go...For the action pack Day to begin in Olympics...

Its a blessing in disguise or pure luck, Deepika has landed in a best possible draw I feel with TPE girl in QF and Choi in SF. This should be ideal chance for her to get in the final 4....

Very sad with Deepika's performance. A top archer of her caliber missing a arrow and firing a 5 is a sign of nerves which I cant say. A #1 ranked archer doing this should be called a crime, But all are humans and nerves can catch anyone if not handled properly. Hope she does best in the main rounds....

Atanu would meet a Korean in 3rd Round.....Tricky opponent.
