SPORTS 1 SHRIDHAR TILVE 

Sports are probably the best invention of religious age. Here faith in rules and regulation matters most. Without belief in faith in rules regulation you can't play the game. You can't provide scientific reason for those rules but yet you follow them because from your bottom of brain you know that it will become impossible to play the game without faith in those rules. So sports compelled you to believe faith indirectly. In shaivism and other Indian religion war turned into sports and Mahabharata was the best example of symbolic representation and Hindu GODS like RAM and KRISHNA [ALONG WITH ASHWATHAMA} broke the rules and won battles for their side. It provided authenticity to corruption to Hindu mind and "THE ONE WHO PROTECTS LAKE WILL TASTE THE WATER ILLEGALLY" became norm in Hinduism.

In these sports only Brahmins and Kshatriyas were insiders and all other warnas were outsiders. Naturally you have every right to kill outsiders unethically and KRISHNA ORDERED TO KILL KARNA BECAUSE HE WAS SUTPUTRA. RAM applies same logic while killing WALLI declaring him as monkey and as RAM is  NAR (man ) he has right to hunt WANAR . 

So who should play the sports and why? Only inside caste you can play it because touch is allowed and you can take lunch and dinner together while playing. KURUKSHETRA was possible because insiders were playing to each other with some exceptions. What about real sports?

Because of VARNJATVYAWSTHA sports were impossible to play. Naturally in INDIA warrior sports like FOOTALL didn't emerge. Untouchability and casteism didn't allow sports free kick in social structure in Hinduism and African countries who have embraced ISLAM are emerging as sports countries faster than the HINDU countries.

In future one day will come when all countries will shine in sports and India will stand in last man standing. Probably at that time she will realize what she has lost. 

Sports are fantastic touches of humanity where you fight and embrace each other. The country who still believes untouchability can't do that. Shame of it!
