Im relatively new to yahoo answers and visit cricket, rugby, league, ice hockey sections (plus other non sporting sections)
The cricket section is overwhelmed with racist taunts. I don’t like to point fingers but the one factor unique to cricket is the Indian supporters. I’m not blaming them alone as its quite obvious they are baited constantly by others.
Is it not possible for a truce to begin, or have I missed such requests go unheard in the past.

Recently there have been questions posted in the cricket section of YA by baseball fans calling cricket fans retards among other things. How would you like it if cricket fans came on to the baseball section and insulted baseball fans

The Indian and the Aussie cricketers are playing together in IPL. But here in the cricket section, we are fighting !!!
Why are we here for? Sharing our views and knowledge or to abuse one another?
Don’t u think we should move ahead as a family forgetting our differences?

and do they not get along in real life or is it just a cricket rivalry?

They learnt the hardy way last night. Gay baketball cann’t beat a real sport like cricket.
Now where are all these gay basket ball users are hiding.

Thanks to this forum I have learnt much from fellow cricket tragics around the world and have a deeper understanding of my fellow man.

For a few days now, I get the feeling the enthusiasm of users from all countries is waining in the cricket section; somehow users are posting less qs & as. Is it so, or is it just my imagination?

Just because India has beaten aus in Cricket??
