India

hello friends , I am back after a long long time. Never thought i would return but something here just happened , which compels me to post this. A cheerleader was sacked by the IPL for blogging about cricketers who were loose and flirtatious off the field. My question is is this ethical to sack her just because she was being honest and upfront. Shouldn't the Ipl sack the cricketers who were so cocky and flirtatious. There are lot of cricket frenzy fans here in india and youngsters worship the cricketers blindly. Wouldn't this leave a bad impact on their minds. What will they learn from this ? Also secondly i think IPL is a waste of money. The matches are already fixed and there is lot of gambling going on behind the scenes. We all know about it but no one dares to speak up. I think it should be completely stopped. It has become like a good money earning scheme for the cricketers. THEY SHOULD STOP THE IPL. what's your say on this ? comeon people we need to share and make sure that the governtment is hearing this Will really appreciate your views on this ~Pinks~

If you think this cheerleader has it bad, what about the American cheerleader who has to pay her school damages, because she wouldn't cheer for a player who sexually assaulted her! Unfortunately, if the IPL cheerleader signed any kind of confidentiality agreement or agreed not to bring the IPL into disrepute, maybe they have grounds for sacking her for breach of confidentiality. However, regardless of the legal situation, I agree that morally if she comments on someone else's bad behaviour, she shouldn't receive a harsher punishment that the person behaving badly in the first place.
