So I heard about this today, last night after the Argentina-Nigeria match a bunch of Nigerian students (apparently from JU) who live around my area ran into our complex and had to take shelter in the community hall because they were being chased down by a mob of angry Argentina supporters. Banter then altercation then comment-passing then wrath, the usual story. The police were called and after a while agreed to escort the students back to their residences. I know a man who once told me he'd vowed never to watch a match at Eden Gardens again after he saw the Indian cricket team being booed by the entire stadium all because Ganguly wasn't playing, we've all heard the Greg Chappell-Rahul Dravid issue done to death by now, two years of Bonguly does that. He also said it wouldn't have happened anywhere else, I don't know about that. I don't watch much sports and I might not deserve to have an opinion about it at all, but it's something that's settled in through years of trying to take to it: so beautiful, so self-righteous, so incredibly unsporting, that's how it's always been around here. This isn't a judgment I'm passing. I've heard it from more quarters than I care to name. Merely as an observation, it's slightly sickening but I've never seen people more clueless about where they're really coming from.
