Winning teams
Is there something wrong with me if I start to look forward to the Saturday rugby game on Monday already? And now it’s Friday and I really can’t wait.

Amazing what winning can do to your team, the individuals in the team, the supporters, customers, sponsors and brand.

The same thing is happening in the UK with the cricket. About 3 years ago cricket was in crisis. England was losing all the games, the kids did not want to play the game, the sponsors did not want to sponsor and the people were not buying tickets. But now, for the first time in 18 years England may actually win the ashes, and tickets have long been sold out, there is a national debate about the fact that the cricket board sold television rights to Sky and not the BBC (national televisions broadcaster) and kids are playing cricket in the parks and on the village greens in the evenings.
