Bull's Eye!!!

ABHINAV BINDRA!
Finally! What can I say? A billion plus people. Over 100 years of competing in the Games. And finally, finally we have a gold medalist! Well we had quite a lot of them, in hockey. But that's a team sport, and it’s a separate tragedy. I won’t spoil a joyous occasion and a celebratory post.
But we have an Olympic Gold Medalist! It’s incredible that I am finding it so incredible! Thanks a lot Abhinav Bindra. You have made my day dude and of all other Indian sports lovers. I am dedicating you an entire post! Imagine! How happy I must be!!!
Irony lies in the fact that today, the glorified f*ck*rs in flannels screwed up again in Colombo. God knows which is more irritating: the fact that manage to lose to such teams or the fact the losers still laugh their way to the bank.
But that, again, is meant for other occasions. Today, it’s about Abhinav Bindra.
Okay, what all has he done today.

1st Indian to win an individual Olympic Gold.
1st Gold Medal for India since Moscow, 1980.
He now becomes both the current World Champion and the Olympic Champion.

He has also probably annoyed the Chinese a hell of a lot! They have won this event in the last two Games, and now they lose it in their own country. The poor Chink even started crying!!!
The guys got some serious nerve. To win an Olympic event, coming back from behind, to shoot Bull’s eye in the last shot! Unbelievably filmy stuff! He still should have at least 2 more Olympics in him. Hopefully that would mean 1 more gold medal!

Other Facts: (Hail Wiki!)
From Doon School.
Youngest Indian participant at Sydney, 2000.
Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna in 2001 (only 19 then).
MBA from University of Colorado.
CEO of Abhinav Futuristics, a PC game peripherals distributors. (http://www.abhinavfuturistics.com/, a very annoying soundtrack though.)

Well, we in this country don’t waste our time in creating stars and also in shooting them down. But hopefully this one will last for long.
Shine On You Shooting Diamond!
PS: Too bad he hasn’t updated his own blog!
