Why is Somerset still continuing with the...

...appointment of Chris Gayle. Have the Brits lost their values?

Somerset spectators should boycott the matches and all sponsorship to the club should be suspended forthwith.

Men need to respect the opposite sex.

Well let Gayle refute the statement and the press coverage on the issue in the strongest possible terms...Don't leave a matter as serious as this hanging. He can also demand an apology or else. Unless he does that, his history is not on his side.

I believe Gayle intends to retire from cricket and is just making these outlandish statements to draw attention to his book

In reply to sudden

I've read a few people post here that the worst statement Gayle made was during a CPL press conference. I'm pretty sure he wasn't thinking about any book at that time.

There's nothing subtle about him, he has one card to play, and he doesn't beat around the bush.

I'm sure it's been going on for a long long time, but it's only coming out now. The degree of lasciviousness and sleaze only grows as his ego does with time. He probably kept it hush hush in the past, but these days he's more and more confident to say what he wants, even in front of the mic and media.

 
Devin 2016-05-24 20:59:13 

He has to be careful with this mode of operation. To say it to the average girl in the stands or an autograph/selfie seeker is one thing, but when you're being interviewed by the media, that's a different ball game.

Thanks. I wanted to get a sense for the context in which his borish comments were made.Sadly he is a product of a culture that objectifies women. A man is ultimately responsible for his actions, and sad to say he does not seem to give a rats arse about who he offends.

I occasionally go to the races, and I have to admit that I try to avoid the Jamaican hangout…….the vulgarity that they display is unmatched by any other group…..the yelling to go suck you madda dis and dat -----is so grating ………..and this behavior includes all age groups ----- the young to the infirmed --- I have no idea from where or how this uncivility was spawned……… but it seem quite normalized – even among those whose appearance would suggest a “better” …… mark you ---- this is a small minority – but the leave an impression

Yes – when I was growing up – impressing the ladies and trying and conquer was in vogue – but we did it with more charm, elegance and savoir-faire ----- this new paradigm behavior definitely says crude is the new norm…..

Quite a thoughtful post and mirrors many of my experiences growing up in Brooklyn.I played cricket for seven years as the only non Jamaican on a team in the metropolitan leage, and to this day i still consider that group some of the finest gentlemen i have had the pleasure of knowing. Since that early experience, i have been around and observed others who practice the same CRASS behavior that appears to be the norm for those from that subculture. I avoid the second type like the plague.

I have never been to Jamaica. Is Gaye's behaviour normal for Jamaican culture. I'm finding it quite baffling. The Jamaicans I know don't behave like this. I cut him some slack with the TV interview thing on the basis that he made a silly mistake but now I'm realising this wasn't, a mistake. I'm so embarrassed.

More odd than Gayle's behaviour is someone from his region, who nuh have nothing to do with he, writing letters to convince powers that be not to hire Gayle.

Something must be wrong with that person's life. Deep down, they cannot be happy.

Then again, it is the same guy who praised the Lord and cheered when he read that some 12 year old Trini girl was raped (statutory) by her family member.
