then again . . .
For those who, like me, get a very uneasy when they see people in other countries burning American flags and burning pictures of Bush or Condi, I offer this modest grain of salt, from the Daily Star, a Bangladeshi newspaper.
Reporting on the reaction in India to the national team's recent shocking loss to Bangladesh in Cricket's World Cup:
Another Indian television channel NDTV showed the infuriated public throwing stones at the home of Mahendra Singh Dhoni in Ranch in the morning after the loss.
"Dhoni die, die," protesters chanted, burning effigies of the long-maned player, who has scored 1,958 runs in 68 one-day international matches and is counted among India's most aggressive batsmen, an AFP reporter at the site reported.
"It seems Dhoni is banking more on modelling than wicketkeeping and batting," said Sohan Mahto, one of the protesters.

At least our Chris Webbers and Leon Letts and Rex Grossmans are still alive.

In addition to that, Pakistan was upset by Ireland, and the country was so shocked and outraged that someone took it upon them self to kill the Pakistani coach. He was found strangled in his home. Adam, shouldn't you be organizing a mob to hunt down Lovie Smith, since he's inexplicably determined to keep Rex Grossman around?
Lovie's going to look like a genius if Rex pulls it off this season. Which he might. Lovie's a smart guy.
Just like President Bush, Rex Grossman should be accountable for his actions. There is nothing wrong with the occasional brick through the living room window or killing of his first born to send a clear message... stop sucking!
