Pride

Jus' now as i was jus' browsing through Orkut... i found that a lot of people have added the video of Abhinav Bindra receiving the gold medal, with comments such as " I'm soooooo proud to be an Indian " Gosh... 1 medal going into the 11th day of the Olympic makes us proud to be Indian??? Sheessh, people get a life...

Stop being so hypocritic...With the talent which flounder here , we should be right up there with the China and USA..Forget USA, look at China,a couple of Olympics back, they were no where and now they are right at the pinnacle..Guys , time for introspection ...Why are we just content to be participating and anything more is an incentive.....Why can't we be the best??? Why?? Why are we proud of just one gold medal?? Why is our medal tally in all Olympics is less than the number of Golds won by Micheal Phelps alone?? Sorry, if you ask me to be proud of our performance in the Olympics....I'M NOT!!!!

it was an emotional moment dude ..watchin da national anthem play and all..everythin has a beginnin I am sure this first gold wud have influenced a lot of minds and dere's no goin bak once we start off. I though on similar lines when much fuss was made about Indias 1983 world cup win and the 25th anniversary.. the aussies win it every time man and we seem to b livin in da past..
