Did anyone except me see this film? it was a typical american film made one fine day i think.. about an estranged kid and a rich re-married father.. and how the sun and the father bond.. over the father's life-long dream of building a house... kinda corny.. stupid.. what-the-hell film.. but it was an afternoon well spent many years back...
Why i bring this up now... coz last week.. i saw the UEFA cup final (for the uninitiated thats soccer) with a couple of my friends... and wished.. LIFE were a soccer match.. heh
well.. the match was between AC Milan (very strong favorites) and Liverpool (more of underdogs who got here by chance form or just a lot of heart... SUCH underdogs infact that they haven't even qualified to participate in the UEFA cup for next year...) so the competition is well clearly defined i guess.. and then 45 mins into the match.. AC Milan had scored 3 goals... and were half-way home with another trophy...
but then came our beautiful men in red from behind.. to score.. 3 goals in 6 mins... and then all was hunky-dory again.. the world was a better place... ofcourse over the next 30 odd mins of play and another 30 mins of extra time... nothing much happened there were a few chances on both sides... god ofcourse was favoring our brave men in red who'd come from behind to equalize the 3 goals.. and then hold fort the next 60 odd mins..
then it came down to penalty-shoot-outs... by most standards a VERY CRUEL way to judge a team's year long performance.. but then.. such is life sometimes? and it came down to penalty shoot-outs.. and to not bore you any further and cut-thru-the-chase... Liverpool WON :D :D :D
now wouldn't life be so much nicer if it were a futbol match.. instead of a boat.. you'd get rewarded for the efforts... and well.. your existence essentially would be entertaining for others too.
I'm badwith endings so in conclusion i would like to end.
