All forms of vile abuse are bad IMHO – and what I’m trying to say is that just as you are offended by the racist terms he supposedly used, you should realise that other people may be offended by the abusive terms Symonds used, and a lot of people will not distinguish one form of abuse from another as better/worse.

@ Chop: Lol! believe it or not, i actually found your comment very funny!
@all: i know Tendulkar may not be everyone’s cup of tea, and a lot of people could have reason to think he is over-hyped, but I thought I made it clear that I was writing this purely as fan, without analysis – and yes, probably without objectivity too.
But i would hope everyone is allowed some irrationality in life!
