The moment when a person tells us "Well. And That's My Theory" especially underlining the word "Theory", most of us give him/her an ugly, cold, distasteful and a revolting look but disguise and sugar coat it by saying "Ah! Fantastic One" and then back talk by saying to anyone who is within our earshot "He/She and their stupid theories" emphasizing again on the word "Theory".
Almost everyone has developed a natural sturdy aversion or strong mutinous reaction whenever someone mentions the "T" word in the mainstream to the extent that it has percolated to the core where many raise their eyebrows and give a disdainful smirk when they hear the "T" word even in a scientific context. You don't have to believe me but how many of you have said "It's just a theory. Forget it". That's the level of deep negative connotation the word is disgustingly inbuilt into your conscious and subconscious perceptions just like how many have primed and equated our own ancient, insight rich and wisdom sated Shastras and Vedas as humbug when in reality the Vedas and Shastras are nothing but science in its pure and distilled form. How do I explain it further? There is an excellent video which echoes my thoughts concisely and precisely:
You surely don't want to miss this good 7 minute mind-altering and thought cleansing elementary video
So, it is established now that a "Theory" is not bad at all if it is based on solid data, evidences and proofs that are empirically tested and available in the open universe around us. We will go down a level further in the escalator about Conspiracy Theory (CT). As how I see it, CTs expand our thinking process that challenges the conventional and prevailing information which are gluttonously fed to us on a consistent basis by the media** who always try to divert our focus and attention from the main, existing and real issue which actually happened thus distractimg us like a sexy Item Number wherein the Femme Fatales set the stage on fire. No, they are not Hanuman Bhakts!
Condoning my worst possible PJ, Conspiracy Theories are the ideal fodder to titillate a dull and boring conversation. The veracity of CJs are undoubtedly questionable. Nevertheless, the possibility of its existence is true as there is an element of infinitesimal probability involved though smaller than the smallest bacteria! If you are an open-minded person, that specific CJ should be explored for testing their validity, however wild or unimaginable. You should not forget that a great scientist as Galileo was branded as a heretic as his idea was against the appeal of the masses when he propounded that the Earth revolved around the Sun which was later proved to be true. Inference, the MAJORITY at that point of time were WRONG as far as this significant point was concerned. The popular is not always right. And the right is not always popular. History has proved us time and again.
How does theory and conspiracy theory are pertinent to a Cash Empire as BCCI? I will get to it soon. Before that, let us try to answer a few tough, hard and necessary questions so that we smoothly embark on this journey together.
Why do you watch a cricket match?
a) You love the sport - Cricket.
b) You couldn't become a cricketer. So, you give your ideas, tactics and strategies whenever you watch one.
c) For a particularly successful team or an outstanding individual or a glamorous host like Mandira Bedi.
d) Dad and Granddad says/said so!
e) My friends are seeing it. I will also see it to not to be left out. Peer Pressure.
f) National Sport or Most Followed Game and It's my goddamn brilliant country that is being represented. I want them to win at any cost.
g) Your husband/wife/BF/GF/Crush watches. So, you mimic them - whether you know the sport or not!
h) A combination of the above reasons.
i) Any other reason apart from the specified. Well, I couldn't think or imagine anything further!
The next extremely important question:
When will a person definitely watch a cricket match?
a) A series is evenly poised like 1-1 and the match heads into the decider.
b) A hotly contested game or series having lots of twists and turns like a thrilling roller ride irrespective of the outcome.
c) Semi-Finals and Finals especially when the match is held in the host country and the hosts are in the Semis and Finals.
d) Forced to watch due to 'n' number of reasons.
e) For bet's sake or have lost a bet.
f) You can add more reasons when you are absolutely sure as to when a person would not miss a match even if their lives depended on something else.
Why am I giving a detailed exposition on the mechanics as to the whys and wherefores to a Cricket Match?
Simple. As you all know that BCCI is a private organization who controls and coordinates the cricketing activities in our cricket-crazed land of 1.3 Billion population. From a Business Standpoint, 130 crore** ardent spectators, who are internally drenched with intense and deep reverence for a sport like cricket, is simply too good an opportunity to miss out for earning the top dollars, Okay rupee! So, if a person can figure out, just like how I did, as to what motivates and propels the passionate aficionados to compulsorily make them to enjoy a match, the authorities in the top echelons can wallow in and swallow the money by emotional extraction and exploitation from the people's love for the Gentlemen's Game.
Now, people who hate and abhor Marketing and Advertising will cite that the ads on the TV or over the Internet also force the consumers to purchase their products by persuasive messages. Unfortunately, that is a common misperception just like the "T" word. Marketing respects the free will of the individuals and gives the complete freedom to the customers to buy or not to buy an advertised product or service unlike in the earlier situation where all of us might be forced against our free will to watch a match just to fill in the coffers of the already deep pockets of BCCI.
"Are you suggesting that BCCI fixes the matches played by India"? I can hear your mind voice shrieking like a banshee through my screen. It will be answered soon.
X---To Be Concluded---X
media** ---> Not all media are biased, prejudiced, stereotyped, mislead or cherry pick in their attitude when it comes to reportage of disseminating essential information to the public.
130 crore** ---> Likewise, not all the 130 crore Indians will like or love the game of Cricket. However, there are countless Indians living across the globe who sacrifice their sleep by either waking up early or staying up till late night due to time differences to catch their favorite team hitting the turf instead of them hitting their sacks. Basically, the entire world may be enslaved at the smartness of the shrewd and astute BCCI.
