Gollum Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) Quote The foundation launched the Laureus Sporting Moment 2000-2020 to public vote, which gave fans the opportunity to choose one of the winners of the prestigious Laureus World Sports Awards. LINK That's why he won it, no sane mind would call that WC triumph sporting moment of 2011, forget for 2 decades. Not the Indian sporting moment of the last 20 years either, that honour belongs to Abhinav Bindra no matter what opinion people have about his discipline...India's only individual Olympic gold medal. But our people are too nationalistic and don't have exposure to sports....automatically rules out other countries as well our own non-cricketers. If AMPAS carries a public vote along similar lines about movies, Kal Ho Na Ho will be the movie of 2000-20 and Karan Johar will go receive the award . Same with TV serials where Ekta Kapoor will go to the stage while Breaking Bad and Mad Men makers will be hilaoing somewhere in the crowd. @Laaloo tera trollvote aane wala hai, so take this twat GOAT title makes me laugh, tics mazaak band kar yaar.

Indian janta did not ask to nominate Tendulkar’s moment. The moment was so powerful hence it made it to the nominee list and rest was piece of cake for Tendulkar to win. raki05, kaptaan, Mariyam and 1 other 4 Link to comment

How did Steve Waugh keep a straight face there GOAT ODI player. Numbers speak. When Kohli retires, I might call him. For now, he is the GOAT. Anyway, its just a cliche. I could not think of a better title to annoy some random folks, thought GOAT might rile up some. :) sandsaims, kaptaan and Stradlater 3 Link to comment

Cricwala Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Who are these Laureus guys? This reminds me of the Miss World strategy back in 90s - trying to penetrate a booming market? Anyway, am tired of this 'Cricket is a religion in India, and Tendulkar is God' s**t thrown around by white babalog and lapped up by our brown sahibs. No one ever called 'Soccer is religion of UK, with Beckham as God', or 'Michael Jordan, God of USA'. Tendulkar is a sporting icon in India, thats all. If anything, Bradman has been made into God of cricket by Anglo-Saxons, with the rest of the cricket playing world expected to worship him as greatest batsman of all time despite the fact that he almost exclusively played in just two countries - Australia and UK.

Once they are made into gods, anyone criticizing their god is a devil worshiper according to them and scam artists like that weasel boria muzumdar or whatever his name is will sell anything to fans in the name of their god. A lesser form of a god is hero worship. Thala as you know means leader and its attributed to Rajini and Dhoni. Rajini's fame came naturally but if you wanna nitpick he became a superstar to the 90s kids because of the "superstar yaarunu kaetta" song. Dhoni became thala due to 's PR team and media. They had to do it to be the face of CSK. Kids who are Dhoni fans or Virat fans go through the same feelings as Sachin's fans did in the 90s maybe a little lesser because Sachin was a better player and there was no one in that class in India when he played. Not the case with Dhoni or Virat. Another poor attempt of making cricketers into gods for monetary purposes is by that fat cvnt boria who was trying to sell the book Eleven Gods and a Billion Indians: The On and Off the Field Story of Cricket in India and Beyond He co-authored Sachin's book. Nice choice because he speaks in the same squeaky tone as Sachin I hope that book eleven gods was a total flop. If it wasn't, I will pray to Shiva to end this earth Edited February 18, 2020 by Real McCoy Gollum, Vilander, Vickydev and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

But hey don't bring up the likes of Dhyanchand, Pele, Margaret Court, Jahangir Khan to ruin their delusions Link to comment

That's an interesting thought. Maybe because of the "christian" west doesn't believe in other gods (but still worship them anyway). The whole ad business runs off of Beckham, Jordan and Bradman is still widely respected according to many Aussies and English as well. They keep forgetting that Bradman was a poor administrator of ACB. It took the loud mouthed Chappell, the Ian variety to give a different opinion. Still Ian Chappell is not widely regarded as a cricketing icon by many Aussies of that era. How many fans buy Beckham shirts and Jordan sneakers. If that is not hero worship, I don't know what it is. Its the same thing everywhere no matter how they spin it. It just boils down to the hypocrisy of the anglo countries. Even in Pakistan, Imran's words are seen as a cure all of all socioeconomic ills that face the padosis and that Imran can do no wrong which is not the case. That was the reason he was elected as PM. Its only because of their religious beliefs that they don't call him god but give the same adulation that Sachin receives. SUMO and Cricwala 2 Link to comment

Maybe Bradman (or Sobers) but even that can be challenged. I consider Sachin among the top 10 greatest cricketers of all time. Not an indictment on him, just believe that very few sports can claim to have a GOAT. Additional complexity in cricket that we have so many disciplines and formats.
