Sreesanth gets slapped, cries, gets a hug and feels better

I apologise for the lack of IPL coverage here on cricket-blog. I tried watching the early games but when you're struggling to find a team to support and they're taking team names from 80's TV shows, well, can you blame me? However, some coverage of Sreesanth blubbering like a schoolgirl after getting slapped by Harbhajanh Singh certainly got my attention.

Now I know in this age of political correctness, it's okay for guys to cry. Men should be more adept at expressing our emotions (at least that's what my wife tells me). Nevertheless, I can't help smiling when grown men cry in public. One of my best friends cried at his wedding reception - we still tease him about it decades later.

I also like how the Indian media present it as "Breaking News" in the same sense that a war breaking out or someone landing on the moon is breaking news.
