Entertainment & Culture Discussion / Re: Did Bob Marley really eat KFC in POS?

« on: November 20, 2005, 07:46:09 PM »

well I just type in "bob marley meat" in google and I get this link

http://www.bobmarleymagazine.com/interviews/smith.htm

I just copy and paste this section from the top of the page.

INTERVIEW WITH KEITH SMITH

“ APRIL 2002 - BOB MARLEY IN TRINIDAD
(by Marco Virgona)

Bob performed two shows in Trinidad on December 9 and 10, 1979
The Wailers played a show at Queens Park that saw hundreds of ticketless fans charge into the stadium. There was a riot at the concert and at the end of the show the temporary barriers that were erected to keep fans without tickets out were battered down and fans had ran into the venue and started to try and climb onstage with Bob, the Police managed to hold them at bay whilst Bob continued singing. Police also used tear gas to keep ticketless fans out of concert.
Ronnie Noel is a singer from Trinidad: "When I was 19, I saw Bob Marley and the Wailers live for the first time," he said. "My life has never been the same after that."
Keith Smith is a trinidadian journalist who met Bob during his stay in Trinidad.
KS: “I spent a lit of time with Bob Marley when he was here. I wrote pieces on him including one that caused a sensation. The headline was "Bob Marley Eats Meat." You may be wondering why that should have caused controversy. Well, you see, Trinidadians here who had become rastas at the time were under the mistaken belief that eating meat was ant-rasta and they campaigned against meat-eating. Can you imagine thir consternation when they learned that the "head rasta," so to speak ate meat except that which was proscribed by the Bible. I remember, some 20 years after the fact, how surprised Bob was when I put the question to him, the voice soft and searching, and answering as if suspecting a trick behind the question, the eyes weary over those fabulous and famous cheekbones as he explained that, yes, of course he ate meat, only that there were some meats that he did not eat. Pork was proscribed (oh hated pig!), of course, as was fish without scales (so had I been a Rastafarian I would have had to give up shark, curried, stewed or boiled in broth), and some other meat that had to do with cloven or uncloven hooves, I can't remember which now.
BobMarleyMagazine: What do you rememeber about Bob’s stay in Trindad?
KS: I attended all his shows and smoked a lot of ganja in his company. In fact there is a celebrated picture of me and Bob that, to this day, some people still have stuck up in their houses.
BMM: Why celebrated?
KS: Because my head is completely clean-shaven so you could imagine the impact of Bob and I with our heads so close together. What people didn't know and what Bob was telling me was that "We all in this together!" Incidentally since Bob's death (I cried like a baby) I have written a number of columns about him.

Football / Re: Which Trinidad-born player has played in the World Cup?

« on: November 18, 2005, 04:40:22 PM »

Former capital of Trini football.. now the soca mecca....- POINT!!

Bunji & Machel from POINT?   

NOPE MACHEL FROM PLEASANTVILLE

I thought machel from siparia.

Not to cause no fight with palos, but I think superblue measures up pretty well with machel and bunji, if you look at the man contributions over his whole career.

google videos is a good place to look for clips.  stuff plays in flash so you can view it in your browser easily.  Just type in a footballer's name and see if they have any video for him.  Their library is still growing, so some names might draw a blank

first result for messi:

Football / Re: It look like the blokes coming

« on: October 30, 2005, 05:09:20 PM »

well I have been reading for as long as it has been an issue:
this is what Zamora said: Trinidad is my dad's country and to play in the finals would be a dream but West Ham
are more important

I couldn't find the exact words that JLloyd said but he was quite clear that England was his preference if they showed any interest in him.  I really doh consider that leaving your options open.   He basically choose trinidad when he only had one option left.   Getting onto England squad ahead of either Ashley Cole or Bridge for next year was already going to be difficult, and now impossible if he on the bench behind Bouma.  In fact if you want to look at it one way the fact that Zamora is willing to play now means that he had indeed left his options open.

Anyhow, whatever is whatever, I say take the two of them.  We need the depth, and they would have no choice but to sweat for us if they ever want to achieve anything in international football after this campaign.

« on: October 30, 2005, 04:32:27 PM »

sammy had a legit chance of seeing time for england but zamora never did, so he had no excuse for holding out... I think if we doh make it, sammy will continue to show interest in us, but I think zamora might dissappear.... my 2 cents

I really don't understand why people are more accepting of JLloyd than of Zamora.  As far as I see their situations are remarkably similar.  Both played for England U-21, both are 24 years old, both of them had early success in their pro careers, both are now having trouble establishing first team places and most importantly both of them put England and their club ahead of us till we got to the playoff.  Now people looking from afar and saying that one is more genuine than the other.  Two weeks ago neither of them wanted to play for us, and now we reading people's minds and know which one would bail out on us?

Maybe I missed some article or something where one or the other said something that led to these conclusions.  Is it that JLloyd is fulfilling a need that we recognize to be more pressing?

naps definitely get demoted at some point during my time in Pres (91-98).  I think they played senior grade for 2 seasons, but it might have been just one or as much as 3.   Was just after Anton Brown left if I remember correctly.  By '96 (the year of the strike) they were back playing championship.

The following poll on FIFAworldcup.com has us as overwhelming favourites:
Can T&T overcome Bahrain to book a spot at their first finals?

a similar poll on the section of the site dedicated to Asia is very tight.  T&T have the edge actually.  I guess ppl in Concacaf have more faith in us than people in Asia have in Bahrain.   

Can Bahrain get by Trinidad & Tobago to book a spot at their first finals?

« on: October 19, 2005, 12:53:03 AM »

Avery is more solid than JLoyd defensively  Are You mad  The last time I checked JLoyd is playing for Aston Villa in the Barclays Premiership and Avery is playing for New England Revolution of the MLS. Need I say more.

EPL is clearly superior to the MLS; this is clear for all to see.  This however doesn't alleviate the fact that the argument I have quoted has no actual substance.

Is every player in the EPL better than all the people in the MLS who play their position? Further, does it mean that every EPL player is also better than all his MLS counterparts in every aspect of the game?

Football / Re: Jlloyd Samuel

« on: October 18, 2005, 03:30:26 PM »

jlloyd must be wishing that he came in the first place but i dont think we need him now. he is good but he should be the one begging to come on board instead of us begging him again.

i wish we had a solid left back in the team though.

avery is more solid than jLloyd is defensively.  jlloyd might have a lil flair going forward, but he can't handle the defensive responsibilities better than Avery.

I don't really like the idea of him coming back after everybody else do the work, but I wasn't in the man shoes when he had the decision to make.  From a practical aspect he could probably provide cover for both wingbacks, left wing or defensive midfield in our squad based on the 2 or 3 times I see Aston Villa over the last few seasons.

Football / Re: 2 wins, 5 losses & a draw

« on: September 08, 2005, 09:15:46 AM »

Imagine, we still in the running for a WC.  FIFA might take away dis 4th place thing in de future if somebody from de Concacaf make de WC with a losing record.

It would be difficult for any 4th place team in a 6 team group to have a winning record.  You have to remember that this 6 is supposed to be Concacaf's elite to start with.  You can't just ignore the fact that we had several rounds of qualification prior to this round and then say that a team with a losing record qualifying makes concacaf look bad.

If Europe decided to have other rounds to decide to have preliminary rounds to get to a top 20 and then put them all in a group to choose their 14, you could be almost guaranteed that the 14th place team would have a losing record.
