General Discussion / Re: Jah Cure for Kojo Funeral in Port of Spain
« on: August 04, 2008, 07:16:52 PM »
Hello Fishs,
             Sorry I took so long about Bro. Resistance. His name is Roy Lewis. He was into the student movement scence in the aftermath of the Black Power and Army revolt of 1970. He was from EDR, Upper Quarry street. he used to dj in the blockos at the time. While in 6th form, he won the first national high school dj competition held on Radio Trinidad. Then I think he or the other 6th formers(Ralph Legendre, Rex Barrow, Caesar, etc) came up with the sobriquet Resistence. I think he went to UWI and  was involved with Black Stalin, Valentino, Black Truth Rythm Band, Mau-Mau drummers and probably Andre Tanker(I am not sure). He was heavy into Black and African culture stuff

Yes, I am them. Robert Bailey was the organist. They were an excellent band. They had a called Shakay Koolay. They were very popular in TT when I was in high school. The other popular bands were  Fela, Cymande, Meters, Mandrill, Manu Dibango, Akido and Santana. The music at that for us was really pomping. In the early 70's, the aftermath of the Black Power days, these bands were popular in TT.

The problem with WI cricket is precisely the problem with Caricom. They are going nowhere. We are further apart than ever. We can't even resolve the Caribbean single market(whatever).

Fortunately/Unfortunately, we are independent countries doing our own thing. When it benefits each of us, we will do something. When everyone appears not to gain from some idea put forward, some will go full steam ahead and the other willl hold back. The islands appears not to be on the same page with each other when it come to resolving cricket issues(finance and sponsorship, player discipline, WI pro-league, travel cost).

But the biggest problem with all WE West Indians, is that we don't realize that we don't have the talent. Maybe long ago. But right now we way down the totem pole. I think we know it but we refuse to acknowledge it.

Heello Ato,
                I know this is T&F thread.   How come TT cycling did not send anybody this year. I thought Ibrahim was going since he got a silver in the PANAm games. And then the track cyclist won some medals at the hemispere championship in S. America recently

« on: August 01, 2008, 02:36:06 PM »
Frico,
         I agree with about having more clout than anybody. That has been so for years. That is nothing new. But has it benefitted us? Why is our football so inconsistent. Why are our teams lacking proper skills. Why are hosting  tournament if we don't have the money. Look, Jack is the superstar for football administartors. That is fine but when come to adminstrating our local football. IS TOTAL CRAP!!!!!

Thanks Matapel,
                          Them 2 clips were fabulous. Bro, I certainly will be asking more about the creole culture. There is a song by Anselm Douglas called Bwah(When ah dead bury mih clothes). I heard before by one of the old time kaiso man. Do you think that was originally a creole song done by a chantuel in the early days of French migration to TT.

Why did TTFF host the tournament in the first place. You bad talk the govt. You know they govt will not give you money. Why host it? Since 94, TT has host the most CFU and Concacaf under age tournaments. It has not benefitted us much. Have we ever qualified for a WC when the tournament was hosted in TT? Let the other islands reciprocate and host the tournament. Let TTFF used the money to prepare the youth teams porperly.

« on: July 30, 2008, 10:50:59 PM »
Anybody ever heard about a team called Jai Hind(All Hail Indian) from Suriname. It is an Indian team with a few Afro Surinamese. They came to TT in 71 or 72. They had just gotten promotion to the 1st div.

They played Maple in Geo. V park. They were a decent team. They played like the Surinamese teams of old. Plenty ball possesion. But Maple won the game. I can't remember the score. Even though I had not seen any Indian players on the Surinam team, it was quite refreshing seeing an majority Indian team. This was nothing new to me. I had seen 2 majority Indian teams in TT  in the late 60's. They played typical Trini football. . I was curious why they never continued longer. One team was from Saddle Rd, San Juan called Saddle Boys. The other one was El Dorado from Tunapuna.
