		<description>Kishan - not true. I have great affinity towards college sports, so you more or less use that to learn the game. Once you start playing it, you can follow it. However, blindly supporting any team is something that I never got into - but I always tend to support the local team (there are some advantages ;))</description>

		<description>Couldnt agree more on the point about american sports. It baffles me when people support a football team or a basketball team. It is really hard for me to understand how could one have those emotional feelings for a team to which they have no relation in anyway...

I almost feel they pretend...</description>

		<description>jaygee i think picking something which you donot do is really bad. Enjo&#039;d what you are and what you do .. 

twisted dna .. If it is to finding there identity than bendling in .. 

I think it is   the typical Indian emotion &quot;Live for others rather than yourself&quot;  

./thanks

		<description>ilaiy: i agree that people seem to be becoming more &quot;traditional&quot;.  It&#039;s more about trying find their identity than blending... a good topic for a future post :)

prasad: Nothing personal Prasad.  About the popups, I never saw them.  I will debug :)

harsha: what you wrote is quite interesting.  It is possible that the whole world is chaning but Indian-Americans are caught in a time-warp... stuck in their image of India when they left the country!

Casement: Glad to see you!

Anu: Yes, I forgot about happy weekends :)  Actually there are a lot of more I forgot.

Shreemoyee: As you said, there are times when i get way too frustrated and have no way to vent.  That&#039;s why  I have a blog ;)</description>

		<description>I dont know why there are so many pop-ups when I visit your blog? Is it some of the applet that you might have embedded [sitemeter]?

Most of the times the popops are from ilead.itrack.it

Pretty annoying, IMO.</description>
