Sure-shot ideas for winning medals at the Olympics

India, my home-country is looking up in the sky for some divine ideas to strike it rich at every Olympics. But, alas, the effort does seem to be lacking on the world-stage. Often, the common refrain being that being a developing country, we lack resources to train world-class. So, the question now is how to mobilize resources to fund world-class coaches.

There are some ideas which spring to mind.

1) Raise an Olympic fund and provide tax exemption for people who contribute to this fund(Similar to the emergency and disaster relief funds we have).

2) Conduct national lotteries and contribute the funds collected to build world class facilities( I guess, this idea is easier than the first.) When people splurge on movies, they should be more than willing to part their money to try their luck and support a national cause. This is found to be succesfully working in UK now and they are currently No 3 in the medals tally at the currently happening Bejing 2008 Olympics.

3) This idea is entirely mine and there-in lies my genius. I hold all patents for its succesful implementation. India has enough stray dogs. Starve a few stray dogs and pelt them with stones. They will come running madly at you. In your effort to save your lives, you will effortlessly train and surpass all existing world records. When it comes to saving your lives, everything else including World records take a back-seat.

Stray dogs are far cheaper than foreign coaches. Stray dogs will be happy to be contributing to the nation in their own little way.

So, this is a sureshot recipe to win 100, 200, 400 and 800 metres for both men and women.

Add a few hurdles in between and we will end up getting 10 gold medals and definitely a place in the top 10 countries. I am already seeing PT Usha ruing why she did not read this post 20 years back.

What to do.. Just like, every dog has its day.. Every post has its day...

I dedicate my idea to this song.
