nutten has gone awry with the players themselves as humans...

young west indians in their current ways are just as human as those in the past.

what has happened is that the system by which our social life is organized has evolved as all things do..on its way to its own resolution, producing the current overall relationships we are now involved in....

it is allyuh who categorically refuse to go understand what is going on so that allyuh know whats wrong with the cricket and how to solve it.

when I tell allyuh about it allyuh get vex and ignore mih, criticize mih and den talk limited impressions of the cricket dat takes us nowhere at all.

Skameron and his bureau strangling west indies cricket is far from unique.  it is a product of this stage of social evolution, utterly natural and to have been expected...or anticipated.

but if we knew that we wud know how to get rid of it..what it means at this stage..and you would understand the stage itself.

that is not difficult at all to understand currently after all the development we have been through. it is the most simply of ideas to grasp and understand.  but allyuh rarse run from the very knowledge of liberation and want to kill the messenger

TRINNIDADDY KNOWS TOO..UNDERSTANDS WELL WHERE WE ARE AT AS A SOCIETY...GLOBAL SOCIETY: HOW WE GOT HERE AND WHERE WE ARE LIKELY TO BE GOING IN THE NEAR FUTURE. 

BUT HE DOES NOT PUSH ALLYUH.  HE SHUD IF HE CARES

Both played in different time periods but still in my personal opinion sobers is much better.

These days you can use technology to aid you before playing and analyzing the opposition and in the days when Sir sobers played, they had to improvise rather then analyse and this was one of the main difference which the game has undergone over the years.

The earlier legends had to do it all by themselves without such large support staff and other luxuries which players today have.
