How IPL Can Save The World
By Kriky
April 2 2009
Kriky has a suggestion for Obama and Co. currently meeting at the G-20 Summit. What if we take the IPL all over the world, in theory it could be the answer to our current global financial crises..


First up change the name to International Premier League. That way Modi still holds to the IP rights to IPL.

The the following areas can be addressed:

Security Beef: This means more jobs for the security industry. This also means that the failed bankers can now become security experts. The qualification for this is that they tried to secure the so called toxic loans. Of course all these security systems will also be converted into hedge funds called secy funds and the dividends double every time a nudist runs onto the pitches. The theory for doubling here is that its because of the ass-et on display.

Logistics: So again more jobs for the people huh. This can be designed along the lines of F1 Bernie's logistic company (who moves everything including the F1 world) and we should try and move the pitches first or drop in pitches - hey we need work, right? Then we shall innovate to start coming up with drop in stadiums. Of course natural theory is that you need spectators to fill the stadiums and hence you will get drop in spectators. Wow...imagine falling off the parachute and getting gunned down by the terrorists. On second thoughts maybe the parachute drop should be reserved for BCCI and ICC officials, they have surely earned this honor.  In any case, this creates space for more spectators and of course the secy funds now start paying more dividends. See the next bubble coming??

Employment: To provide for more employment we will take the idea of multiple captains and extend this to all members of the playing staff. This means each team can in theory have a million members but since it is difficult to remember names, all of them shall be call John or Buchanan.

TV rights or wrongs: The spoils from TV (i dont mean our kids and toddlers) will be split on the ICC ranking. The top three will get 80% of the share and the rest get nothing. Ah ha I can see the smarter you asking me what happens to the other 20%, dudes..why do you think Modi holds the IP, surely not to live on love and fresh air. All pictures will be watermarked and the secy ones shall be watered down. This makes all secy funds transparent which will be a major upgrade from the current way all hedge funds work.

Nomenclature: The city where the games get played will have one team featuring their name. So Chennai Super Kings could become Perth Super Kings. However since we are leading this global turn around effort one team will be always Indians..whoo hoo Mumbai. Imagine Perth Indians, Timbuktu Indians..always here, always there, always everywhere!!!
Let the games begin!

(Sm22) loved the idea of drop-in stadiums and crowds, you own the IP to this highly novel idea!

Also don't forget drop-in BCCI babu crowds for presentation ceremony.

I'd probably make a fortune If I marketed Buchanan masks along with a foam middle finger...smiling smiley
