Outsourcing Cricket

I don't care much for cricket except during World Cup and if India is playing and/or there are really cute guys on the field!!
With the IPL so much in the news, I thought let me see what it's all about.

I see that money is the only motivation as the players aren't there for the nation nor for their respective states. Sworn enemies are now playing in the same side. Players who had retired are now here for the big money.

Whoever thought of this idea has combined India's two major crazes- Bollywood and Cricket. Of course, the media is loving it. While the 20-20 format is great, I hope this IPL thing doesn't catch on.

I'd love to see more of Dhoni though :-)
