Look at all the cricketers who went dread. There games went south or they started suffering from discipline issues.

Gayle
Lyght (Ask Lloyd why he didn't tour with the WI senior team)

Maintaining a clean shaven hair style takes discipline which will carry over into your game....

Food for thought here...not to mention sample and sample size.

So now all you see that going dread is not good.........not good at any time I'll ad. Going dread is just a physical manifestation of some deeper mental and/or behavioral dysfunction.
When a black man can decide that something he should try is letting his hair grow so long that he has to plait it up like females, then you know something nah right with he.

Oh my. That sounds even worse. Long braided hair?
Where does he go to take of it? In a hair salon filled with females?
And that does not send a warning message to the male wearer that aye, maybe I want I am doing is effeminate in nature and I need to cease it immediately.....

Wait nah. Dysfunctional entities you telling me about man. Dem does have man and man marrying and playing like dem is husband and wife.
Dem does have naked women on TV singing songs and have dem up like stars like they doing something noteworthy. Then dem taking these same vile entities and sending them to speak to young kids about decency and staying in school. (That's just like sending an alcoholic to speak to a class on the benefits of being sober).
So what rubbish you telling me about look dis professional dis and dat. Steeeuuuuuuuuuupppppppppssssssss.
Listen me, when you trying to make a point that something is normal, don't come trying to tell me that because dysfunctional mind-warped people from a increasingly perverted system are doing it, then it is normal okay.

Check up on the reasons for Samson demise. That's what you should take note of.
His long hair was for a specific reason. I am sure you never see nowhere else in the Bible any man been instructed to keep his hair long inorder to maintain superhuman strength.
One has to be careful about taking one-off events and making them into general concepts applicable to everyone okay Powen.
P.S. - Samson was not a blank man......hence no rasta.

Asshole look at the context that it was being discussed in the backroom. We are not discussing individuals being judged on HOW they are dressed, we are discussing the effects certain adopted lifestyles have on the deiscipline required to be a top flight cricketer.
Major major difference, so KYS.
2014-09-13 22:11:46
Where in the bible have you seen anyone going to the barber? You are getting off into a lot of stuff that you do not seem to have knowledge of. We are talking about hairstyle(s) here and I am not comparing to America, etc....I even mentioned the Jamaican track beast. Where did all this Sampson stuff come from and how is it relevant to the original post? Your dislike for some people will make you say anything. The amount of guys wearing braided hair in the caribbean is enough to make my point. Please.....notice I did not say wearing braids! I said wearing braided hair......I hope you know the difference!

Answer your own question asshole! If you know anything about history, culture and the bible you would not even ask that question. By the way, Christ himself wear dreads. So if it was good enough for Christ....well why I am I even arguing with you.

That's exactly what I was going to ask Theo.
To Theo:
Point out to me if you were one of the people who saw Jesus Christ when he was on earth? If you were not one of these people, then send me a photograph which one of your relatives from ancient times took of Jesus and sent for you via Fedex.
If you don't have any photograph of Jesus, then tell me how you know he had dreads?

You have taken the speaking of nonsense to a new level. And what is even more frightening is that you seem to actually believe in what you are saying.
Point out where you see Jewish men wearing dreadlocks. One thing I know is that the hair of Jewish men and Arabs is way different than that of black men.
