IPL was a Fantastic invention by that Lalit modhi and Co that would change the feel of cricket. It was a milestone to Indian cricket by giving cricket an all new meaning.The High-speed Game packed is with half nude cheerleaders, cool jerseys, heavy advertising and plenty revenue.
Fact – IPL is a money making racket
Folks no body cares bout who wins or looses or that damn spirit of cricket. Its all about the money baby. Imagine the government had to take a decision over which made priority, IPL or Elections. That Lalit modhi and his BCCI junta had the Balls to ask the government top postpone the elections. Seriously that’s a joke.
Fact – IPL – rip off of EPL
For all you who don’t know, EPL stands for English premier League. They even copied the Name, jokers. Am sorry I am not going to support Bangalore royal challengers who have only a few Bangalore lads playing for them. I love Bangalore, but I hate Bangalore Royal challengers. Mallaya will loose IPL and Formula One. But he is a smart man, he sponsors 5 teams. He does not care he will make his money in any case. But you will still go ahed and drink his beer, finally cry after your team looses.
Fact – Bollywood factor
First they ruin Indian cinema and now they are going all out on cricket. Bloody blooywood.
What do shilpa shetty, sharukh khan and preity zinta have in common ?.... bollywood. They also have one more thing in common, IPL. KKR is screwed thanks to the charismatic Khan. SRK ‘chak de’ was a movie, but this is real life mate, move on your kolkata knight riders are doomed. And then you have shilpa who hip shaked her way into IPL, she can sure do a good job coaching the cheerleader group of Rajasthan Royals, but shilpa sorry your Rajasthan royals are going down. And that bloody dimple preity, gosh I don’t want to start. Preity keep you dimple and liril soap at home.
Fact – IPL killed cricket
I may not be a cricket expert but I sure can comment on it. I remember the days where is grew up watching wasim akram, Courtney walsh, Waugh brothers, tendulkar …. Etc. When cricket was all about the passion. We learnt strokes, bowling styles and most importantly watched cricket to learn the game. IPL is all about winning or loosing. It does not have a set framework like true cricket.
Why I Hate IPL ?
Spirit of Cricket is lost.
Skill involved is terrible.
IPL insults and disgraces cricket in its truest form
Does not reward proper batsman-ship or bowling – its all bout the money
A country known for its passion for cricket has just sold it self to the devil. I can go on and on folks but all you IPL lovers know you just watch the game for the hype. Am sure 9 out of 10 IPL fans have never lifted a bat or ball. You just want to be cool and fit into the crowd. If you truly love cricket ….. oh shit am getting all senty…. Do what you want to. :)
But I Hate IPL, Period.
Cheers

Megapixels = Megabullshit !!!!
Mr Raj works in a bank and comes from a lower middle class conservative family. He wants to buy a new camera to keep those priceless memories. He decides to got a show room and buy him self the latest one. As soon as he walks into the showroom he is greeted by several advertisements and the only thing that catches his attention are the large fonts saying “megapixel”. After being bombarded by the Ads he walks into the showroom.
Raj - Hi I am looking for a camera.
Saleman - Yes, here is the canon camera, and it is 10.3 megapixel, with blah blah
Here is the Nikon camera with 13.4 megapixel .
Most ordinary people need a basic point to shoot camera, as their need is only to click basic photos. The question is does Mr Raj really need a 10 megapixel camera to take a simple snap of his family in front of taj mahal.
For all you camera lovers here a myth that is certainly the biggest rip-off, often used by camera manufacturing companies, retailers and salesman. The first thing in a TV commercial on you latest camera, the first words by your friendly yet sly salesman are “megapixel”
This trick is used by salesman and camera manufacturers to make you feel as if your current camera is inadequate and needs to be replaced even if the new cameras each year are only slightly better.
Whats a pixel ?
A photo is made up of little dots called pixels. Pixel stands for PICture ELement. Put enough of them together and you have a picture. They are arranged horizontally and vertically. Get close enough to your computer screen (or use a magnifier) and you'll see them.
Image Resolution
Resolution is the number of pixels you have counted horizontally or vertically of a photo. Most cameras today have between 2,048 and 4,500 pixels horizontally. A 3 MP cameras have 2,048 pixels horizontally and 14 MP cameras have 4,500 pixels. They have fewer pixels vertically since the images aren't as tall as they are wide.
That's not much of a difference, is it ?
Unless you are planning to print a billboard of your photos you can make do with a 5 megapixel camera.
What matters in you camera ?
Lens – The lens is the eye of the camera, quality of the lens is what decides the sharpness of the image formed on the CCD final, thus decides outcome of the photo. You only see the values of this in a digital SLR (single lens reflex) camera, where you can change the lenses. Same camera, different lens, and the pictures can improve vastly.
CCD – It is Like the engine of a car, the CCD sensor in a digital camera acts as the primary tool to capture an image. In its most elementary form, the CCD sensor is like the camera's "electronic eye": collecting light and converting it to charge, and subsequently emitting the signal that results in a digital image.
Next time you walk into a showroom to buy a camera you know if the sales man keeps rattling megapixel, just shut him up.
If you good friend cays he has the latest 8 megapixel camera phone, and you only have the good old 3 megapixel camera just click the same picture and you will see the difference.
Try this out friends.
Conclusion – Megapixel = Big bullshit story
