By singling out Trinidad, Barbados and Guyana as the only potentially successful "go it alone" teams, I pretty much dissed most of the West Indies. It is therefore YOU who are INSULAR, as you have narrowly focussed on my Guyanese insults rather than berating me for my FULL SPECTRUM INSULARITY. You are an insularity enabler, sir, an insularity enabler!

That's because Trinidad's hired a bunch of Guyanese and Bajan players in this PCL. We've got to carry Deo and Marlon Richards from Guyana, Kyle Hope from Barbados etc etc...you genetically inferior non-Trinis are contaminating the purity of our Trini essense.

Meanwhile, all our mercenaries, and guys like Badree and Narine, are outside the country doing what mercenaries do. If Trinidad were to "go it alone", these guys would be dragged back (we would bribe the ICC to let Narine bowl again).

But my point was that Guyana is doing well in the PCL because none of the other teams can play spin.

Guyana's winning because of Permaul, Bishoo and Moti. These guys hardly go a game without picking up a 5'fer. They are absolutely running through teams. In the last PCL, Guyana's bowlers had the best figures, and Barbados' batsmen had the best figures, with Guyana's batsmen barely registering.

Right now, the Guyanese candidates for the WI team are Fudas, Deo, Permaul, Moti, Singh, Leon and Bishoo. The selectors missed the boat on Deo and Fudas. They should have been given an extended run a long long time ago alongside Chanders. My guess is that the selectors now think that both are too old.

Leon did well internationally and shouldnt have been dropped so soon. Permaul and Bishoo have been regularly making the WI team now, but both should be played together. Moti and Singh are young and have only done well in this latest PCL.

I never said that there is a lack of talent but the lack of sense of responsibility is resulting in lathargic efforts on the field. This must be remedied for the sake of the great game.

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."
