Tuesday, January 18, 2005 "There must be a rhythmic alternation between attacking the causes and healing the effects." ~ MLK Suits well for the developmental efforts back home. Plight of Chennai Veerans (PHL): "The players and their support staff, numbering 20, are put up in a residental complex in Madhapur on the outskirts of the city which the organisers call Hotel Supreme Delux Annexe. While the three foreign players of the team — Juan Escarre of Spain and Pakistan’s Dilawar Hussain and Zeeshan Ashraf — are in a star hotel in the heart of the city." If you had missed Tamil nadu Govt's 4-page advert in Wall Street Journal last October, here are the links (pdf): Page 1 | Page 2 | Page 3 | Page 4 Technorati Tags: MLK, PHL, Chennai Veerans, WSJ, Tamilnadu Government posted by pradeep | Permalink | (5) 5 Comments:
I gotta say the WSJ ad was a gutsy move and pretty good one too. While it might not make all the monetary short term impact one might hope for, it definitely gets people looking at you and also talking about you. By The Last Blogger, at 10:10 AM
poor chennai veerans. By saranyan r, at 12:40 PM Sadly Chennai Veerans don't seem to have much of a chance. The jinx continues for the teams I follow - India now Chennai. I think Hyderabad should win once Sohail joins them. They look solid in defence with Tirkey and Wasim in the midfield.
Yes Ranga, that was a smart move. Waseem if I am right plays at left half. I remember watching a few matches on fieldhockey.tv and he has good trapping and distribution skills. It would have nice if Rehan Butt was in one of the teams. Great winger to have. |
