What's good for the donkey is also good for the ass.

It's either we have very short memories or we are bloody hypocrites.

For the records.

If my cappo achieves half, just half of Sammy's accomplishments (that's all I want for now), I will concede that he has done exceedingly well.

Pouty was never given the opportunity yet
we have the braying started.

For some reason Caribbean nationals hate success. Instead of praising the Administrators taking a step forward we are back to our plantation toxicity..
Crabs in the Barrel syndrome.

Very sad.

I did not start this thread to criticize Pollard and even if I did. It's an attempt to expose the sanctimonious hypocrites who kept their asses shut when in times past when the courtesies were extended to another cappo.

The most vile things were posted then in dumper loads.

I view you as one of the intelligent individuals on this site.

You as noted sanctimonious hypocrites
now you are provoking debate with such individuals. You know who they are, are you trying to get down to their level?.

One let such individuals bray and take the high ground. I expected more from you.

No. When the discussion/discourse reaches the level of hypocrisy, I will expose it when and where necessary.

$ammy is a good man, and exponent of people like me with limited natural talent if not resources.

If it weren't for that one lapse in judgement at the T20 WC presentation ceremony when he performed his now infamous foot-in-mouth impression, who knows what heights he would've attained.

I think the few years in the wilderness have taught him well. At least, should have. No reason he can't get another look in. Unless he's forced to earn his place this time around, that is.

Please, please do not derail. This thread nor its initiator does not support Sammy's inclusion to any West Indies side. Please, please...

It's about those who are sanctimonious and hypocritical when Polly is criticized as if he should be out of bounds.

In reply to Courtesy

I agree what was said was hurtful. But ppl were emotional. When sammy was appointed he was not even on the radar for a test team pick. And the fact that the leaders of the executive hailed from the same iskand meant it wad particularly offensive. I remember my mom, who is a friend of Mr Basarath telling me thst he said the decision to appoint sammy was a thief in the night.

Walco 2020-01-15 01:51:50 

Ultimately Sammy’s tenure has exposed some uncomfortable truths about our Caribbean. In some quarters, he was otherized; the other who didn’t belong to us. On a popular meeting space, where some of our thinkers frequent, he was daily referred to as a "donkey" a "fraud," a "scam" a "dotty", the latter a reference to him being a "small-islander". Those who know something about our history understand the origins of such self-hate. Now, the powers-that-be have succumbed to the logic, loudness and relentlessness of the silly crowd. The professed quest to return to the glory days is a long way from finished; it might have been dealt a setback. And the long silly season that started in 1995 continues, Dinesh Ramdin notwithstanding.

Not as bad as your folks finding the nearest railway track and shitting on it. Imagine 1.4 billion shits daily on your railway tracks. This would far exceed any subhuman condition or reaction.
