Phil team ALL true blue, born & bred, Americans. Had STRICT rules against expats playing
on their international teams. King wasn't on 1909 team to Jamaica. If he was, Rastas
would have been AMERIWASHED!! 8) :-* ::love::

Will need some Rasta cricketers for bit parts when shooting the scene of 1909 Jamaica tour. Just have to stand in front of stumps
and be bowled by Phil. actors when cameras rolling. 8) 8)
