Dear David, It appeared not in a Panamanian newspaper but many years ago in Fidel Castro’s Cuba, Granma. Cuando el pueblo se enfada, toda la injusticia tiembla. You speak a little Spanish, don’t you? Not a word? Small ting. It says this: When the man-in-the-street says enough is enough, all …

Wired868’s Lasana Liburd is far and away the best football reporter in Trinidad and Tobago, arguably in the West Indies. So if any proof were needed that the current protracted TTFA vs FIFA issue is not about football, it came on CNC3 last night. I am sure Liburd and Wired …

It did not take long, did it? We all knew it was coming but less than a month? “One law for them. Another for you.” This stunning insight on the state of the Republic, brothers and sisters, comes down to us from the Upper House via Facebook. More accurately, it …

Champions know that the time to be in front is at the end; three-time CPL winners the Trinbago Knight Riders arguably know it better than most. And therefore today went on to become four-time title-holders. The victory means that they did not lose a single one of their 12 games …

Rahkeem Cornwall flings, using the term loosely, his 305-lb frame low to his right at gully to grab and smother an Imran Tahir edge. It’s all over—the Guyana Amazon Warriors innings, not the frame!—for a mere 55. For the first time ever, the St Lucia Zouks are into the CPL …

“Dive, dive nah, boy!” I think I also heard an explosive expletive. The yeller is Dwayne Bravo, the bowler; the yellee is his younger brother Darren, who is at mid-off. The occasion? Tuesday’s first semi-final of CPL 2020 at the Brian Lara Academy in Tarouba between Kieron Pollard’s TKR and …

One senses a certain joylessness in the Jamaica Tallawahs camp that perhaps bespeaks deep-seated, seething dissatisfaction. Two bits of circumstantial evidence: well caught low down at slip by Daren Sammy during yesterday’s final league match, Andre Russell walked off with neither scowl nor embarrassed smile. As one would on discovering …

Where on earth is Chris ‘Universe Boss’ Gayle? More importantly, where has he left the two-time CPL champions, the Jamaica Tallawahs? And why? Not, mind you, why has he left the franchise—that, his version of it at any rate, is already a matter of public record. My why is why …

Lightning, we are told, does not often strike in the same place twice. In August 2018, the Jamaican Tallawahs’ Andre Russell blasted an unbeaten 121 off only 40 balls to stun the Queen’s Park Oval home crowd into silence. But weather-wise, this has proven to be an extraordinary year so …

Not for nothing has television been dubbed the ‘boob tube’ or ‘idiot box’. And this, long before anyone was able to watch the sports news on TV6! Bad as it is, the CCN channel is not alone. Not just in vision but in the voice and print media as well, …

It is looking as if Kieron Pollard’s Trinbago Knight Riders will give the nation a belated but welcome Independence gift. As 2020 CPL action shifts back to the Brian Lara Academy in Tarouba tomorrow, TKR are firmly in the driver’s seat. For those fans with short memories, that is precisely …

It’s an ill wind, we have long heard, that blows nobody good. Ditto, I think, Anil Roberts. Which may be why Kamla Persad-Bissessar has seen it fit to return him to the national parliament as a senator. If every current UNC Member of Parliament were somehow able to make a …
