For the love of effigies
Those crazy bastards over there in the sub-continent love their effigies don’t they?
It has always amused me the burning of effigies - even more so because it tends to be quite prolific amongst cricket fans. This is as amusing as it is confusing.
The poor old Pakistanis and Indians have suffered humiliating defeats at the hands of Ireland and Bangladesh respectively (I don’t know which would be worse considering Jason Gillespie’s double ton against Bangladesh)
It has gotten even worse though with Indian fans not only drowning pictures of their players:
… but storming and trashing the home of one of them:
What a bunch of fucking muppets!
I wonder what would happen if they were as mad about soccer as they are of cricket…
It is time that we introduced the art of effigy burning to Australia I believe - the Rugby World Cup should give us a great opportunity to hone our skills.
