I was recently discussing the shortcomings of the Indian nation in preparation for next months Commonwealth games with my League of Internatinal Counterparts and we all came to the conclusion that it is a very bad idea to let the games be held in Dehli. With waves of sickness, plagues of flooding and shit loads of construction problems occuring with only a week to go my Chinese colleague Saigon Simon said, "This is a velly, velly bad idea. As a damage limitaition exerswise we would blame it on the God-damn mongolians, knocking down our shitty walls. At least this would pwevent the doubters in our ability to host such a pwestigious event due to building cwappy bwidges and instead focus on pweventing an international dispute." A good point well made Simon San. In rebuttal El Gringo Russell stated that he would've deflected all the negative press that Dengue fever had spread across the area by issuing a statement in the press that the sporting party had already taken over and in preperation all the locals had, "seeemply been eeenjoyeeeng the tequilaaa to much seeenyor", and were all suffering a bit from alcohol overload. As can be experienced in Maidstone town centre on a Sunday morning after a few lager shandies the night before. At this point i felt the need to step in and explain to my Hombre that although this seemed like an effective cover up plot unfortunately tequila could surely not be used as a cover up for vomiting blood clots and crapping for hours on end with of course the possibility of fatality at the end. "Obveeeousileee you haven't drunken my teeequilaaaa!". Good point, show me then.
This didn't end well. A good point well made Senor.
However we are wavering from the reason that the League was summoned... Delhi. Recent events have also seen a terrorist attack at which point my learned friend Muhammed Al-Jimbo piped up "Another round?", so he popped off to the bar and bought a few oranjebooms and jager bombs before we continued our discussion. At this stage of our marathon chat we decided it was just a bad idea to send top athletes to a building site and put them up in unsanitary conditions that even the animals who left paw prints everywhere didn't want to hang around in. But then again when you sit back and get reflective on the situation it'd be five star accomodation to most of the inhabitants of a country thats bordering on third world and only the corrupt thrive. Correct. Unfortunately another correct point is that no-one will bother to watch a sporting event that hasn't got even a spattering of top names (i decided not to watch as soon as Mr. Bolt pulled out) but then again maybe some athletes who've been plugging away and always come 4th, 5th or 6th will finally be able to put a top medal in their trophy cabinet alongside the bravery commendation they should get for turning up. The worst part of this terrible tale of events is that the cost of these games has reached $10bn already and this is a country that has had its workers living in shacks in makeshift shanty towns so I'm guessing it's not in the best economical situation. Hopefully we won't have another Mexico City situation on our hands.
