Monkey Business

I am quite certain u all know what i am going to write about...ok if i have to spell it out for ya..then it is about the Sydney Test fiasco. Let me start off by saying that i am actually a great admirer of Andrew Symonds. The guy should be called Mr Cricket (i think his 'white' friend Hussey is called that) simply because of the fact that there is absolutely nothing he cannot do. He bats like Bheema with a bat instead of a mace. He fields like as though the field is as soft as a mattress and the ball is as soft as an orange. He bowls both off-spin and seam-up and ends up making a monkey (can i say that!) out of the batsmen. He is extremely versatile and frankly i dont think australian cricket could reach the place it has without him...and Warne and Mcgrath and Hayden and Ponting...ok ok they can reach any where they bloody hell want. However no one can deny that he has brought a dimension to the sport..especially since the aussies have a knack of picking specialist and not really into all-rounders.


Now about all this monkey business. To me it is absolutely disgraceful. The guy doesnt look like a monkey at all. Ape yes but monkey no. Sure they belong to the same family and all...but there is a huge difference between the animals u know. U really cant blame anyone for stating the similarity. U really ought to take care of ur experience Andy. Firstly lose the dread locks. They r hideous to the point that u just dunno whether to wince or to laugh at it. Then dont mess around with ur lips dude...it ain't hip..the white paint that u have all the time provides a very awkward contrast. I am quite certain u take or of this then u could have a much better appearance.

Coming back to the actual incident. Jury is still out on whehter Bhajji actually used that dreaded bad word-Monkey. I am flumoxed here once again. Bhajji was doing quite well as it is being the pain in the ass of all the bowlers why was there any need for him to rub it in further. Besides the footage was not conclusive at all and as a result everyone has come out with their own assuptions. Not one to be left out...I too beleive this is what happened :

Monkey: U @#$@ @##$$%#@@ !! how the hell u hit brett on the back side
Bhajji: Kya? (What?)
Monkey: *&%^* (#$@%# !! u deaf or what ... didnt u hear what i said
Bhajji: Arre thu pehle seedhe bath kar...muhje kuch samaj nahi aah raha hai ( Arre why dont u speak properly first...can't seem to understand a word ur saying)
Monkey : $*#($&*@ *$(#@*#(#!!
Bhajji: oye theri ma ki aankh (oye shove it)
Monkey: did u just call me a monkey
Bhajji: What? Ma ki......
Monkey: yea yea ..u called me a moneky..right there..just there...u called me a monkey...Ricky..oh Ricky...!!@@#!@!@ .. this !#@#$!@ called me a monkey....$#$@***
Ricky: really? did u call him a monkey?
Bhajji: Kya? Arre ye kya ho raha hai (what? what on earth is going on)
Ricky: u sure he called u one...coz i have half the mind of lodging a complaint...the guy keeps getting me out..
Monkey: Yea man...actually that was the point..ur a disgrace as a captain with this bloke getting u out all the time.. lets complain..
Ricky: Yea...think no longer..this is it...we complain...oh umpire!!

and the rest as they say is history.
