wat does relatively new have to do with anything ::confused::

at this point in time my claim is valid. Sammy has turned out to be a fine west indian aftah a very questionable start lookin' the lackey right out of Julian Huntes' stable.

Sammy is no longer anything like that, a development all west indians who payin' attention recognize.  dat is why his unceremonious drop is causing a stir.

west indians now like and appreciate Darren Sammy.  his personality stands out.  he is a most respectable leader out in front of his team..respected in the cricket world.

wat is all ah dat Mail ::confused:: ::confused::

wat yuh beating up on Shive and Sammy for ::confused:: ::confused:: ::confused::

it is not easy in the world you know.  and everybody have at some point to make a compromise with old marse in order to live...you know..to get a job/to keep a job.. so you can make a livin'

we can blast Shive for his sell out/we can blast Sammy..and others too.  but at the end of the day those 2 did enough of socially accepted quality to be appreciated by the west indian people... regardless of the not so nice parts of their careers.

these are ordinary west indian boys who had nutten and by hard work and luck deh came to be what they are.  I tink the west indian people focused on the whole of the two men not the parts.  deh long forgiven fuh the bad parts

Me personally have nutten but respect and appreciation for both Shive and Sammy regardless.

Lets stick to Sammy's performance on that 3 year contract.

TEST, ODI and T20 : he was Captain supremo.

His last 2 years stats in T20Is are woeful/pathetic.

MAPPIPPEE,

It is fact Shiv and Sammy are scabs not me fabricating a situation.

At least Shiv merited his position but Sammy absolutely not and I have no time for him as a Cricketer.

Check out his numbers as they make quite bad reading!

Yes, as I said above, Sammy presided over two World T20 victories but what did he really contribute in a team of professional T20 players who really did not require captaining.

I hear St. Lucia is in tribal mood!

Sammy thanked Ottis on that FB video on the first post !

dunno why ....his Bowling never improved.

He talked about ups and downs with players but never mentioned:

Pelting down LiL Bravo in the Nets , injuring him.

Bravo then refused to play under his Captaincy and fly home.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
