Do you hate cricket? Are your Indian friends always insulting real sports and calling them barbaric while insisting that cricket is a "gentlemen's game?" Do you want to go to a bar and drink a few beers and rant about how much you hate cricket while watching "barbaric" sports like football, hockey, baseball, soccer, and basketball?

Do you want to beat me up after reading this post? ( I hope not)

Either way, I am sick of cricket, so if anybody else knows of a good sports bar that shows American sports games, or any other country and wants to meet up for drinks, Do reply

I don't hate Cricket, so maybe I don't qualify to post a reply to your post.

One thing that I have been missing since I moved to Delhi is football...sigh. I probably chose the wrong time to move, right in the middle of the regular season.

Anyway, I am guessing you are a Pats fan and probably missed Favre throwing his 500 TD to Moss, who is back to Vikings now.

So million dollar question, how do we watch those "barbaric" games here? or perhaps maybe just bitch about not being able to watch them? Any thoughts?

Whether its NFL or College Football I'm down.聽 But what would really peak my interest is if anyones up for catching a bball game especially with the New Miami Heat team playing.聽 I'm myself an Orlando Magic fan, but would really love to see James, Wade, and Bosh playing.

As for cricket...well..I really don't have much to say.

Miami heat is an interesting thought - I have been amused at the weird events that happened in the process of creating that weird mix of a team. (Best was LeBron's live television snub of Cavs on a so called "Decision Ceremony"). Not sure if they will do well, but I am down to watch how it unfolds.

Wade is not playing the pre-season though due to hamstring injury, so atleast the Sunday night distraction away from NFL is going to be limited.

So now, how do we watch all this given, no bars in Delhi play this stuff. The only way I know is Slingbox, which I am trying to get installed at my apt in NYC. Any thoughts on that?
