Sports is something which most of the people are interested in , if not playing, then watching at least. Some people just want to witness a good game, and some die hard fan of their respective countries but at the bottom of their heart, everyone wants their country people to be on the winning side.
Winner and Looser , ultimately these are the only two results of any sport. It's quite obvious, each individual playing any game desires to win it for their country, for the people watching them and for themselves.
And behind every participant, there are several people backing and supporting him, the coach,the supporting staffs and the whole country, so naturally sometimes the fear of losing becomes too much forcing them often to follow the rule of, by hook or by crook.
There are rules for every sport but these days to value words of rule books are not being taken for consideration by the players . Value actions more than words have eventually been turned on to be the modern day rule of players.
The act of others lets them respond accordingly whether to win or to lose and so do the value of each game has been lost. Players are relying upon the game play of others in order to decide their fate rather than focusing on their individual game.
Relying on fixtures is turning to be an essential part of the game for various players.The game is no longer fair for all .
There is a difference between a winner and a champion. The desire to be the champion is so much that players have no problem sacrificing their group stage matches deliberately because of which many talented players come and go just having a thought and a dream to be the champion.
Now the sport is no longer left away from the dirty thinking of people. Doping test stopped players from consuming illegal drugs but now seems like they have found a smart alternative to it.
The value of sports is lost somewhere in the wind of winning .The greatness and class of players are vanishing and seems like the counting of legends has been terminated in this century itself.
The winning title has overpowered the spirit of the games.
In the recently held London Olympic games, there were a lot of players caught in this act of bending of the rules . In badminton , two duos of China were disqualified for the act of losing deliberately so that they don't have to face another team of China participating in the same game before the finals and so that the gold and silver both can be added to the medal tally of China. Similarly, there were many similar incidents and many players accepted their mistake what they did to break the rule of the game. Unfortunately, some players do feel proud to bend rules as they think you need to do a bit more to be ahead of others, but they have forgotten the fact that they are constrained under the rules of the game.
As the Olympic flame extinguished this time, a new dark spot has been marked in the games.
Skillful players are hardly any and identifying talent has become more complex.
There is a difference between winning and winning with respect.
A player losing a game after a backbreaking performance is more honorable and respected than those winners bending the rules in the game.
It's just not about winning somehow ,conquer the world as if nobody can point at you.
Too Gud..:)
