Refreshing, Reformed, Refocused and Recharged
Following on from our hugely successful opening few weeks and the phenomenal interest generated by attracting the attention of well established web sites and portals such as Rediff, Cricinfo, Times of India and others, www.ihateganguly.com has spiritedly said goodbye to puberty and reinvented itself as www.CricketWatchdogs.com. Why the change? Our focus has changed in keeping with our long-term mission to become watchdogs of cricket and the almost inevitable scheme of possibilities, which preclude Ganguly’s affiliation with the current Indian team. Since inception, our mission has not been to hound Ganguly so he seeks asylum out in the cosmic world but to address the quagmire of favouritism, zonal politics and Selectors’ incompetence and dilly-dallying that is reminiscent of Indian cricket.
At CricketWatchdogs.com, our mission is to become cricket’s ultimate watchdog by fostering healthy debates amongst the cricketing fraternity. This is a site devoted to bringing cricket fans from across the globe to vent their opinions and feelings without needlessly having to worry about upsetting the hierarchy, the cricketing stalwarts, their chums or the overtly sensitive media that pounces on anything that doesn’t conform to traditionalist views. We celebrate launching this platform to voice our concerns, grievances and our non-existent expertise, which we are expected to believe to be the sole prerogative of the much-fancied high profile cricketing websites. This is a predominantly cricket based website however our varied forums cater for avid followers of other sports too.
With over 300,000 hits in a space of just 3 weeks and with over 3000 registered users, our approach for straightforward, no nonsense cricketing expressions, albeit with the usual unavoidable riff raff, accentuates the calling for a different kind of website. A website that promotes, harbours and fosters healthy debates without fear of trampling on the diktats of the Editor or the Website Admin. This new website www.CricketWatchdogs.com delivers on that.
As we prepare ourselves to be the beacon of openness and critiques, our mission remains the same. Whatever we do, we do for the betterment of Indian cricket. Furthermore, in our quest to progress further, we seek your co-operation in promoting and highlighting what we stand for and not for the hateful connotations that are being bandied around with gay abandon. We are a very minor presence but the future, with the aid of your support, can take us further seamlessly into the core fabric of cricket.

I am often asked what tool is best to maintain a pets coat. Keep in mind that any tool can and will remove, tear, stretch or damage hair if used improperly because it is the nature of hair to give way to force. Tangles and matting will not completely undo without damage to the hair, but that...
