If Shoaib was not the world's fastest bowler, he would have been your average chichora riding Honda CD70, spitting paan at every corner in Pindi sadr bazaar.
Too bad he has let everybody down. Where is the class in Pakistani cricketers?
The fact is that Shoaib Akhtar thinks it's KOOL to have such a lifestyle and doesn't mind making it public whereas some of you stuck up in the arse have a tight time fathoming the realities of life.
Can you tell me how you can claim to punish someone just because he has a different lifestyle?
If he drinks, than thats his personal lifechoice. How come Mr. Alam can say that Shoaib' lifestyle warranted harsh ban.
If shoaib was in the habit of taking nandrolone then how come his test results came negative in the past on atleast 2 different occasions in 2003 and 2004?
The tribunal could have given Shoaib benefit of the doubt, specially when they openly criticized PCB policy on guiding their players regarding antidoping regulations. But fine they didn't choose to. But then what is the need of giving public statements and giving impression that Shoiab active sexual life/wild life style is because of taking banned drugs.
Bottom line is, when someone like Intikhab Alam is picked up to perform an important task, he should be responsible enough not to make an a$$ out of himself.
If I were Shoaib, I 'd sue his ugly ass for these comments and bring it up with Mushy and Nasim at the next "cocktail party". I am sure they being "Moderate" themselves will favor Shoaib on this. Intikhab just being a playa hater.
First of all why the hell was Intikhab Alam included in the tribunal?.What his qualification?.What the f doe he know about steroids?Does he have a degree in chemistry?.PCb should be including in the tribunal doctors or people with background in medicine or chemistry who know a fair deal about steroids.Letting morons like Intikhab Alam make a judgement on Shoaib based on something thats unrelated to the matter is ridiclous.
I do not disagree or agree with Mr. Alam but can't help but to state a simple fact.
If a girl prefers to walk in Bikini on the streets, TRUST ME she will glazed, scrutinized or raped by the time she reaches the end of the road.
Moral of the story ? If you are going to have a fuked up flashy character, THOUGH it is NOT right for anyone to make personal assumptions about any ones personal life; BUT it WILL play a BIG role in other persons mind as he already have a mind set of what kind of fuked person he( Shoaib) is.
Thats why Mr. Akhtar should have kept a low-profile even though if he was a superstar. He paid his price heavily because no body is willing to take his side. NOT based on his professional carrier, but the pathetic life that blinded the eyes of the tribunal bench. And please do not tell me that he did not see it coming.

Using your logic as stated above......
If a (Muslim) girl prefers to walk veiled on the streets of London or New York, TRUST ME she will glazed, scrutinized or (assaulted) raped by the time she reaches the end of the road.
Moral of the story? If you are going to be judgemental then be prepared to accept the consequences. More importantly, not everyone is raised as an animal, most of the civilized people of this earth have a fair idea what is right and what is wrong.
And please do not tell me that you did not see it coming, after all this is a cricket forum not your typical narrow minded religious sortie....
Funny thing is that just even before all this doping thing happened,Intikhab alam in a T.V show was saying that ASIF has the potential to become World,s best fast bowler if he keeps a normal Lifestyle and dose n,t spoil himself,look now,
And as far as Shoaib,well knowing him i,m sure even before the tribunal he must have said some thing insulting or infuriorating to anger them further,
so this one is probably some sorta revenge from them,lol
