Football / Re: Best quotes by commentators.
« on: September 20, 2009, 04:03:14 PM »
I feel Ray Hudson have de monopoly on quotes.. just a couple i remember off the top of my head..

After Dani Alves score a goal last season and raise up his shirt...
- "Nice nipples Dani!! but an even nicer free kick"

After Messi score
- "Messi sliced through that defence like a surgeon... with the knife.. or a scalpel"


When Caceres lose the ball Ray say "he have the touch of a sperm whale"

One time a Scottish player miss ah open net, hear Ray: "that was toilet finishing of epic proportions"  :rotfl:

I almost spit out the beer I was drinking

« on: September 09, 2009, 06:14:09 PM »
Denial is vastly underrated as a coping mechanism I find...and dat cheerfulness in the face of near hopelessness can be seen as a strength. That is an approach most pro footballers use to keep confidence and teamwork intact. Trust meh, I know, I holding on with some hope but inside I crying like a lil hen.

after tonights disgusting performance i have lost the grain of faith and support i was graspng to for TnT football

i will wait patiently for the country, association, federation, clubs, managers and players of professional football: TO STOP f**kING AROUND AND GET YOUR f**kING BRAINS IN GEAR (IF YOU HAVE ONE)

STOP PUTTING OUT LACKLUSTRE DISPLAYS IN THE NATIONAL SHIRT

STOP LOOKING LIKE YOU DON"T KNOW HOW TO  PLAY THE GAME

STOP ALL THE EXCUSES

START WORKING YOUR ASSES OFF EVEYRDAY, IF YOU THINK YUH REACH CUS YOU HAVE A CONTRACT YOUR f**kING WRONG, YOU NOW START, YUH REACH WHEN YUH WIN SOMETHING, AND AFTER YOU START ALL OVER AGAIN

STOP WITH THE FREN FREN ASSNESS

THEN AGAIN LOOKING AT THE STATE OF MY COUNTRY ON A DAILY BASIS I SHOULDNT EXPECT MORE FROM THE FOOTBALL SIDE

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

YOU OWE IT TO THE NATION WHEN YOU PULL ON THAT SHIRT TO GIVE 100%

Infantile rant... as usual

Children speak the truth however

Something quite wrong with fasting (for any faith) and I eh figure it out just yet. I mean yes it is respecting the faith but what about the faith respecting me.

It's not about "respecting the faith"... it's about sacrificing carnal desires (food in this case) as a means of showing gratitude to the god of your understanding.

I'll pass.
Breds don't be so shallow. mind you, i not trying tuh convince yuh of naught, but just look around and see all the blessing yuh have as ah healthy functional being,(assuming yuh healthy) something that so many ppl lack and would die to have, and you have it no sweat.

to me that's a small price tuh pay for all the blessings we(healthy functional ppl) receive on ah daily. tuh sacrifice food and drink for 12 hrs a day for 29 days should be ah pleasure for any muslim who truly reflects on life and all it's benefits and hardships, especially when you and your children are healthy happy and doing well, when so many are deprived of the simple blessing we take for granted.


OK breds fair enough but instead of fasting as a way to pray for, contemplate the plight, or understand the feelings of those who without food and drink, why not eat/drink and sustain yourself and use the time and energy to mobilize and work towards lifting up and providing for deprived sisters and brothers.

Misery doh always like company. That starving family in a Brazilian favala probably doh care about who fasting as a means of understanding his situation. In fact, they might think you gone orf for doing so.

And what more important for a family's well-being and sustainence, money or food?

Because I believe it is the latter, but ppl who fast doh exactly stop working fuh a salary or work for half a day during the fasting period.
Breds this is not about understanding nothing, this fast is obligatory on the MUSLIM in the month of ramadan! if yuhs not ah muslim , then don't sweat it, it's not for you!

it's also obligatory for every MUSLIM tuh feed the needy and the less fortunate (real poor folks) providing they could afford tuh do so, starting with yuh family members and on down to the orphans, the sick and the old etc.

 about ppl who working and fasting, if yuh truly can't cut it then it's recomended that yuh don't fast, but istead feed a certin amount of ppl. it's not fanatical as you may think my friend.

I eh Muslim but I am human just like them. That comes first so naturally I must feel compassion on some level from that standpoint. I doh think I pointed any fingers anywhere.

"Not about understanding anything"?  "Obligatory" ? Look at them words just cool boy, seriously. Like ah concrete wall. Then it have "Muslim" in bold so it have mih feeling because is a religion I must accept it as it is and cyar question facets of it? Salt fuh that.

Despite myself, I have a friend who fasting, de poor girl bitter and irritable and does cyar wait till she could break fast. So in her case she doh show me the spiritual side. What disturbing to me is that she young (30) and don't even question these emotions and natural reactions she feels....but will grow to accept it as she grows older, has less time/energy to wonder about things and raise her kids similarly.
Listen grande! yuh beggining tuh sound like one ah dem nosey liberals who feel they know's what's best for all of humanity, and is dem self who forkinup the world wid their do whatever yuh feel it's OK values, which is worst than ah man who want tuh fast or ah woman who wants tuh follow ah faith that may seem misogynistic.

this is the trouble in the world today, every body knows whats best for the next man. discipline has found it's self out side of our world, the modern day western view is ah do whatever yuh want as long as yuh not breakin any laws attitude, and question religion especially the eastern ones, but don't question us BC we know what's best for you..

but what happen tuh discipline? man doh want tuh be discipline no mo, that is old time backward values, beating yuh kids, teaching yuh daughter tuh be ah lady by dressing modestly and acting responsible, avoiding lewd sexual public display,

 that's what should be debated instead of some woman who does get cranky when she fast, breds i'm sure no body eh have ah gun tuh her head telling her tuh fast, don't single out her situation in order tuh demonize fasting in ramadan.

listen pardner, this has been going on in the world long before you arrive , and it will go on long after you. the fact remains that the ppl who are fasting were not forced into it, if they want they could say fork it , just like some of my african breddrens who are muslims does do, after all , nobody eh have ah gun tuh dey head neither saying yuh have tuh fast!

just like the christians in the catholic faith who have the lent season, they doh have tuh abstain from meat if they don't want to,  but none the less some of them chose tuh loww the meat while some say later for that, it's all up to the individual.

I ent pretending to recommend or know what is best for somebody else...if I give off that vibe, then my bad, but it is not what I was tryin to do. I still learning.

Yuh right this has been going on in the world long before I arrive, but I in a part of the world where one can explore, think, question, challenge, be challenged and rethink things we're taught to accept. Fasting is just another concept I was pondering about. And I must wonder why helping the poor/needy during fasting (certain religions) tends to go out to those less fortunate folks who are of the same religion/community - something I noticed.

questioning is all I doing...I doh think I would've outwardly been able to do this had I lived in certain Eastern countries. Thanks for the information you shared  :beermug:

Congratulations !

Destra clearly happy about it, so congrats in order.

But why is it an automatic norm (seemingly) to congratulate women who're pregnant? I never got dat. Ent we biologically equipped to cause it anyway.

Not everyone is equipped that way. Not everyone can have children. it's a monumental event and should be congratulated - if indeed that was your aim.
You can also congratulate fathers, especially the ones who are aware/conscious that they are.

Fair enough...I guess next time when a pregnancy is announced, I will ask if it was wanted, and if yes, I will congratulate. If not...I go offer an ear to listen.

Or maybe we can congratulate the parents 5-10 years after the normal biological process of birth, when the child - as a result of good broughtupcy -  accomplish something of worth and merit.... Cause is like ppl does only congratulate at birth but when the child goes on and does well in life ppl doh really go back and congratulate the parents with as much pomp and circumstance as in pregnancy/childbirth.

You father would most likely know. Small hint.

He went to QRC and his career would have been over before 1960.

VB

Very very last hint.

He is from Caigual, Sangre Grande! :-)

You hadda be a real Grande man to know this one :-)

He is also very famous for another reason but if I say it, you will guess it too easy.  ;D

Rupert Tang-Choon? (sp)

Actually he never played for the WI. In the forties with Headley, Stollmyer brothers, Gomez, etc. didn't get pick.

However, was very successful for TT.

My Dad knew him as they were from the same area.

VB

Caigual eh...yuh fadder is a bushman  ;D

That's right, he played for TT.

Apparenty though (according to mih pops) he was about to be selected for WI but something got in the way?
