RE: Platini unseats Johansson for UEFA presidency
Sorry Tilla...it is the entire post that has to be quoted.
Mosiah: There is a saying that goes something like this - A genius is one who first goes where no other has.
I did not say other could not have done what Jack did. I did not say others would not have come along to do what Jack did.
I did say if Jack had no done what he has...it is possible we would not be having the advances we now have. I really do hope you read where I said, if not for Jack's stepping into the breech - I doubt it...that is, I doubt we would be whereare today...and, i made special references to - a)Caribbean persons placed on FIFA and CONCACAF committees; b) the numerous Goal projects.Just do the research and you shall see the many other good things Jack pushed for and achieved.
Yes Mosiah...If not for Jackwe would one day progress to this stage and as sure as the sun shall rise tomorrow we shall one day progress even futher along the road...but, "before Jack" ...relating to descernable football progress;the question would was "WHEN?"
...just as as we wait for someone to lead our football forward since the successes of '98, 1999 and 2001and to take us into uncharted waters of performing well at those FIFA World Championshipsand increased production and supply of players to top professional leagues - When?
You see itmatters not your bawlin (faults you find with Jack) Jack has done wonders...and, he continues to do wonders...and, that's a fact! ...and no one can make his good actions disappear.
Mosiah (1/26/2007) <DIV>Dag! What simplistic reasoning Karl! I wonder, would we have had this site if Paul Marin didn't start it?</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Would we have had the Internet if Al Gore had not invented it? </DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Would the JLP have built Highway 2000?</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Would any other CFU president have done anthing? And before you come with the tiyad ansa bout "they didn't", let me let you in on a littlesomething -football then is not football now. It is more a bizniz now than it has ever been!</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Sorry, Karl, but I refuse to believe that only Jack could have done these things. In fact, I cansee others doing much more than Jack without scheming and dealing their way to the bank.</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>How the saying go again, Karl? I think it goes a little something like this:</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>what Jack can do man can do</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Right?</DIV>
