Running the Show

Vijay opted to stay out of the committee is buzz in the DCL world. Most of the people are happy but their happiness is cut short as the "happy bunch" has nobody to point fingers if something is not done in their own thinking lines. Losing Vijay at top is huge loss to DCL and though it my personal opinion, lot of friends whom I contacted openly agreed to my opinion and are feared that DCL may loose its face value if not soon but for sure in coming days. Some expressed that in couple of years we may not see DCL at all. Though I may not agree with all that opinion but I do have my own fears and I do have my reasons.

DCL is open forum and with that comes extra baggage of nonsense and this nonsense has two faces. One always blaming the committee for petty reasons like proper ground is allotted; we are playing too many games in Lansing; why should we go for umpiring; these are just few but too many issues like this crop up and that may lead a break up in the committee itself. Another face is you need somebody work hard for no apparent reason or benefit. This is going to be very difficult to handle as till now Vijay has taken all nonsense. He used to spent lot of his time running around different city offices just get the grounds most often skipping Lunch/breakfast waiting at front desk of city offices to get appointment . I don't know how the hell he gets the time off from work. I am sure he is one hell of beast who dedicated most of the summer and all the summers in last 5 to 6 year to DCL growth. Running the show is different from running the show to bring out the best with fun and excitement and Vijay was always innovative with his ideas to bring out the great excitement to name some DCL Night, Night tourney, DCL best talent awards, etc… What it does is give the best possible publicity to those DCL stars that thrive day in and day out for their teams.
I still remember the way he struggled to bring in sponsors to run the show at times he was literally …… {I really don’t want to put in words)… only thing I can say is a "thanks buddy"…
If somebody calls it passion, do we have anybody who can replace those big shoes? I thought of saying "I seriously doubt it" but I am saying "Nobody can". Just mark my words.

Vijay is very arrogant in dealing certain things, sometimes he lives in his own thinking and listens to nobody and never lets anybody to advise him and most often imposes his thoughts on other members of the committee. It has become a habit for him ever since who took over from Madhu vedaji to run the show of DCL, and he was very successful in running the DCL year in year out. Can somebody match him? I would say "NO WAY". The best part of Vijay is, he don’t keep anything in mind as he has no meaning for enmity in his dictionary. I am good friend of Vijay and I know in and out about this guy, he is arrogant nice friend to have in anybody's life. One day he is on your face yelling at you next day sharing Pleasants and he takes nothing to heart and that’s simple reason GLCC and MegaBytes are still friends and that’s the only reason Strikers and GLCC support each other. You need to have such personality to run an open league like "DCL".


These are big shoes to fill in, now let me end by asking one simple question to current group of committee members… "Are you guys ready for the show?" I hope so and wish for the best…. And would like to end it with "Thanks once again " to the great man Mr Vijay Namburi.
