In regions like Bengal, Goa, Kochi, and the North East, football isn’t just a sport—it’s a multi-generational legacy. The passion runs so deep that back in the '90s, many households in Kolkata bought their very first color TVs solely to watch the World Cup. With its fast-paced, 90-minute format, football delivers an unmatched level of entertainment and pure competition. Walk past any neighborhood field in Kolkata after school hours, and you’ll find it packed with teenagers playing football. To truly understand this madness, you have to be in Kolkata during the World Cup. The energy is electric, and the dedication is so real that groups of middle-class Bengali fans will save up for years just to travel to places like Brazil to witness the beautiful game live.

This argument has been put forward by a Lieutenant General. Normally I would refrain from commenting, given the respect I hold for the institution he represents. That said, the reasoning here reflects a disturbing level of moral bankruptcy and intellectual dishonesty.
One day Hollywood would make a movie on victims of the Minab, Iran primary school massacre, where 165 girl students were killed after an Israeli-USA strike targeted the school on very the first day.
I can already see the trailer: A blonde, CIA agent sheds cinematic tear over the accidental Minab school strike, and eventually winning an Oscar with ‘Best Actress’ speech .
