 Hospital talk* MS met JD at the hospital and said that he is willing 
                          to join the IC, but the request had one clause. If they 
                          were to join in JD will have to kick DM out and install 
                          AS there. JD flatly refused and the status quo remains.
  What an advice!* So this history making senior bowler went to the spinners 
                          clinic and gave them one piece of advice. He said “As 
                          long as the senior bowlers are there you will never 
                          be able to break into the national team. So it would 
                          be advisable if can go to England or somewhere else 
                          and play a little professional cricket and make your 
                          money”.
  These unkind words left the young 
                          hopefuls completely non-plus.  No business* A Netball match of the National Sports Festival was 
                          in progress and there a very senior player who also 
                          had captained the national team was with the ball. There 
                          came a novice player from the opposition to cover her. 
                          The senior player blurred out “You have no business 
                          to cover senior players like us.
  Hurrrrah for the boss* The soccer silver medalists were being felicitated 
                          at Beddagana. During the event, an official of the controlling 
                          body snatched the mike off the singer’s hand and 
                          started singing hosannas to his boss “Long live……..” 
                          They say that this is the way he wangles his foreign 
                          trips.
  Mr. B vs Mr. T* The fighting at the cricket’s administration 
                          seems to have spilled on to the school level too. Former 
                          national skipper Mr. B’s son’s name is struck 
                          off the list from the captaincy and Anura’s son’s 
                          name has been installed. They say that Mr. T is behind 
                          this whole move.
  No Compassion* Mr. T once again approached MR to have elections for 
                          the Maitland Place seats. But, this time it was Mr. 
                          Ruler of Compassion who has put a spoke into the Mr. 
                          T’s wheel.
  Low Medical* It is said that there are more outsiders enjoying 
                          the facilities that are preserved for the sports men 
                          and women at its medical unit. Recently a prominent 
                          tree politician was seen limping out of the unit after 
                          treatment. It is also reported that a medal winning 
                          sports woman has confronted the head of this united 
                          on this issue.
