End of sports season

Cricket got over a week back. With the FIFA world cup and the Wimbledon coming to an end this week, it suddenly feels like the sport season on television is over. Men can now return to informative(!) channels like AXN (programs like Fear Factor) and women can return to their entertaining(!) programs like saas-bahu soaps.

I lost most of the interest in football world cup during quarter final stages, when Argentina, Brazil and England went out. It was like a cricket world cup without Australia. My interest in Wimbledon was limited to Federer's finals and at some points in time during the finals, it looked like he too would lose, making it miserable. Luckily he held on. Federer reminds me of Sampras because of the way he keeps his composure in any situation of the match. I hope he wins many more grand slams.
