GeoffreyBoycott has it spot on the WI. Batsmen play well for a short period, then give it away.... like tailenders

well no.  Rampaul is 'one of them'....  an older experienced player who can stand up for his rights.  Rampaul is potentially a lot of trouble for the cWI so they keep all like him far from the top teams. 

'deh have had enough trouble in the shorter forms of the game with Bravo, Pollard and company.' then one of their trusted lieutenants.. Darren Sammy.. turned on them.  they cant have that. 

so they dropped Sammy, who had become a most effective leader, and replaced him with the incompetent lackey Bajan, Carlos Braithwaite, ketchim's bwoy.  west indies have been losing at T20 since where we used to win all the time under Sammy

that is why we end up with the school boy teams..because they pik players first on their docile personalities and the dependency the board they can induce in them. 

all of the players on the west indies team in england for eg. at this moment are completely dependent on the board for their places..every single one them.  were the cWI bureaucracy removed most of them would loose their places immediately.

they were selected because they can be managed with less difficulty than the better players.

the first consideration of the cWI is not the quality of play by the west indies on the field.  they don't care about that.  what they care about is control and maintenance of their own lucrative positions at the top of the cricket heap.

as long as they can keep the cricket going, even at the shoddy current levels they don't care.  even that level generates income sufficient to take care of them.  even this ridiculous cricket england series will bring revenues into the cWI coffers to take care of them..not the players but them

the cWI are the ones who control and divide the pie.  they will look after themselves first.  that is the point of it all.

and in principle, they are supported in such nefarious activity by all the bureaucracies in the world..all of which are involved the very same way in the social life...bleeding whatever revenue-bearing social activity they 'administer'... to make a huge bread for themselves, at the expense of those who actually generate the wealth.

capitalists and bureaucrats..and their system of social organization of life, the 'system' as we call it..is the problem.  these are the people who cause all the problems in life, all over the planet.  humanity removes capitalism and capitalist bureaucracy.-the system... or human society will be bled to death by these suckahs

This West Indies lot are the worst Test match team I have seen in more than 50 years of watching, playing and commentating on cricket.

They can’t bat and can’t bowl. I take no pleasure out of saying this as I played against some of the greatest players the world has ever seen wearing the maroon cap of the West Indies.

It is a cricketing tragedy to see the West Indies like this and there is no gloating over them losing. We all want England to win Test matches but we should not be euphoric about this. It is just sad to see a once-proud cricket Test team lower than any I have ever seen before.

The whole Test was a mismatch with West Indies outclassed and out of their depth. This was a Test match in name only and the gulf between these two cricketing countries is as wide as the Grand Canyon.

I said so from the moment the team was announced.

the cWI team knows itself to be tragedy and does not fight that realization.  they simply shrug their shoulders, accepted that they a manipulation, a fake side and play like one

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
