THE 5 P's EXPLAIN West Indies MEDIOCRITY - Rev Al - 01-20-2014
[size=18pt]That's right folks! The 5 P's Clearly explain the mediocrity of West Indies players and West Indies cricket.[/size]

* [size=14pt]There is only one player in the current West Indies team who is dead serious about his preparation and practices perfectly.[/size]
* That player has played in 153 tests---he has scored 11,219 runs at an average of 51.93 with 29 100s and 62 50s.
* He has also scored 8878 runs in onedayers at an average of 41.60 with 11 100s and 59 50s.
* But he has been discarded from the WI oneday team and the nasty stinking coach and selectors are dying to drop him from the test team.

* You're right!
* I just hope Shiv maintains his high standard and keeps playing another 5 years.
* WI fans like Ramesh who are mediocre in their own lives and root for mediocrity---they will remain mentally tortured by the great man.
* [size=14pt]Shiv must not retire until he overtakes Sachin or is firmly ensconced in the #2 position in terms of runs scored in tests.[/size]

He strung 5P's together without rhyme or reason

I think it is a good principle to live by as a Sportsman.
BUT if you like Mediocrity , do NOT subscribe to the 5Ps....
