Why play football? Let's park cars!
It is a well known fact that Dhaka city boasts the fewest number of playgrounds; five or six in Dhanmondi, three in Gulshan and Banani, and six more in the rest of the city. I happen to play football in one of those fields. Lately, playing football has become a hazard. Why? It's really hard to play football if cars are constantly coming inside the field to park. Why are cars parked in a playground? Because the local goons have a lot of power, and none of them really plays football, so the best thing to do is to earn some money by securing the field as a parking area. What should we do? Play while the field can still support sports?
