It is easy to take the piss out of Lalit Modi.
Look he is a greedy wanker who once pleaded guilty to kidnapping.
Look he has paid people to listen to him now the camera is on.
Look he is talking on two phones at once.
Look at his face, he is clearly the Ricky Ponting of Sports Admin.
But, think about what he has done for us.
He has given us three cricket sides that cost roughly 300 Million USD to be put together.
Only 170 Million of that was on the Deccan theme tune.
Then he put these three teams into a tournament especially set up so that they would have a second chance to shine.
He invited others for the hell of it.
And then his 3 millionaire clubs all fell down.
Not one of these sides has even made the semi finals.
That is quite an effort.
Instead we have the great story of the Trinidad & Tobago team captained by the smooth drink of water that is Daren Ganga.
And 3 other teams.
Lalit, i thank you for allowing all of us to laugh at millionaires and IPL teams, while giving us the gift of Ganga.
You are truly a good hearted man.
