Superb analysis of the @pbhushan1 judgement by Mumbai lawyer @ZaidWahidi: "The Supreme Court holds that there is nothing wrong with the Supreme Court"! https://t.co/irqEHr1Rom
That image of Maradona as an avenging angel, as a tribune of a wronged people, transcended borders. His fame grew in the southern-Italian city of Naples, where he turned up in the mid-eighties to play for the city’s local club, Napoli, which had not won anything in recent memory, and whose supporters chafed against the bigotry of northern Italians. “It had been more than half a century since this city, condemned to suffer the furies of Vesuvius and eternal defeat on the soccer field, had last won a championship, and thanks to Maradona the dark south finally managed to humiliate the white north that scorned it,” the late Uruguayan author Eduardo Galeano wrote. “In the stadiums of Italy and all Europe, Napoli kept on winning, cup after cup, and each goal constituted a desecration of the established order and a revenge against history.”
Now Messi’s Argentina is the established order, the Goliath shoving the heads of all other challengers in the dirt.

Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.

"Arsenal is not humble. Have they ever won a Champions League? How long have they been around? They never won that? Okay. London's blue, never red. Up the Chels" 🔵😂

Once DD fired an anchor for calling Xi Jinping, Eleven Jinping and now this vile, disgusting man @AshokShrivasta6 is still there after attacking a child with fake news. We've hit rock bottom as a society.

A BJP leader called Muslims Pakistani pimps, green pigs and green snakes; threatened to strip, beat them and urges Hindus to boycott them and demolish mosques.
Shortly after, @Dev_Fadnavis made him cabinet minister.

Ishan Kishan is a terrific cricketer who has just essayed an amazing international comeback.
He has also made almost a 100 crores just from IPL fees, not counting international duty and endorsements. This cheque is not a 100th of what he has already made and he's not the greedy sort.
So one can only assume this was literally a payout for a photo-op with him to ensure that the others in the picture got into the papers and all over social media.
Obviously, why spend one crore of government money on creating facilities or training centres or bankrolling poor athletes when you can instead use it to create a photo op by paying the one of the few athletes from your state who really does not need the money!
And that's why sport in India is where it is.
I find it hard to believe that she would have been granted a visa unless someone from the establishment wanted to use her to reach out to Trump. She must have been told to disown the anti India stuff but assured that the anti Muslim abuse was just fine. She stuck to the deal
@PadmajaJoshi I’m sorry I saw the full clip and you had zero remorse when distinguishing his professional “job” from his convictions. You should really not be on prime time tv
