Jamaica vs. Parguay Nov. 14 CANCELLED

[Lazie]

When I was in high school, my class went on a one week trip to San Juan, PR. We had a game with some students from a military academy. We entered the game with the notion that we were going to give them a baseball score beating, afterall, who ever heard of PR playing "ball". The first thing that struck me was the "carpet" grass pon di field. After about goal number 'tree", in the first half, with my ches' wheezing, I had to beg for a change. Dem times deh me was a big time scrimmage baller. The man dem fit and fast plus me did used to playing pon stone and dirt field or in our likkle Crabbit Soccer Room. I lost count of how many goals scored against us. The spectators on the sidelines were literally rolling with laughter. Plus we weren't wearing any boots.....just we crepe.

That was funny! Remind me of a time a cruise ship docked in Ochie and man from the areas that was a member of the crew lined up a game at drax hall. Man an man was bragging to come and watch dem beat the farina dem. As soon as the game started people realized they bit off more than they could chew.

Everybody always think dem a big baller ..... until.

Puerto Ricoi was on the same field with Spain recently. Maybe they think PR picked up a thing or 2 from the Euro and World Champs.

If they have a chance of being beaten pulling out might be psychologically advantageous, i.e. choosing a weaker opponent to boost the morale and maybe belief of the players... having said that I would prefer to play a team that I'm more evenly matched with in preparing my team for competition.

Paraguay is at the bottom of the WC qualification table in CONMEBOL.

Strange that they would pull away from a mutually beneficial tune-up game.

Maybe Jamaica should travel to SA to get some good away game experience.

[Assasin]
