Gimmie di Beyonce riddim now… “Who run the world GIRLS, who run the world GIRLS, who loose the match GIRLS, who gone back home GIRLS”… Wooiiieeeee.. A weeeaakkk… Listen mi now… My wonderfully acclaimed Jippa Jappa Princesses were sent on their merry way back to Trelawny in a JIFFY lastnight. (Young people is not peanut butter mi talking.) No surprize here but I can attest to the fact that they started out with a bang but ended in a bung… These fearless felines put up a good fight and were more than worthy opponents for the ever consistently quick thinking and commanding St. Jago. Truth be told, although Jago emerged the victors, in comparing them to the other “Bad Dogs” out there, dem a border line Alsatian. Dat deh performance cyaan repeat fi di likes of Ardrenne, Munroe, KC, Campion or Manchester.. Speaking of dogs, u know di lickle yip yip dem.. Like Chihuahua and Corgi? Well, today you’ll see JC. Yo quiero Taco Bell or KFC?? Wait till Munroe dun wid dem.. SICK DEM Munro.. Sick DEM!! Final score 35-23.
Wolmer’s Boys vs Old Harbour High
Goooood afternoon folks.. Sorry for the late update but I had to attend a funeral on the weekend for the late Age Quad Agis.. Service of thanksgiving was held by Torrington Bridge and interment at National Heroes’ Park.. Gone too soon bwoy.. Old Harbour, you may not win but just know I am extremely proud of you. Always a pleasure to see di country school excel and worse this was an underdog. Old harbour record last year never impressive in the leastttt. Lame like Derrick Harriot’s videos.. Much less dem come KICK WEH one BIG BIG town foot fi reach quarter finals.. Cyaaannnn chat to dem bra.. Meeda shame.. Is like dem win already to rahtid you shoulda hear di studio audience. So this marks the first “Upset” in the tournament. Behold the power of The God of Saltness!! Now uno know how di cashpot people dem did feel.. Anyway, sometimes coffee sometimes tea.. Hush ya wolmers… Gwan go prepare for Champs. Final score 23 -21

Sigh, didn’t they almost have it alllll. Final Score 25-20

Tonight brought back memories of ring games we use to play as kids… Dem ya now a days pickney yah nuh know bout dem tings here. Di only “ring games” dem know bout mussi jewellery related , mix up and blen blen or Lord of the Rings Play station 2. So tonight Manchester started out singing “Who is coming next, Punchinello, little fellow? Who is coming next, Punchinello, little dear?” Cornwall responded : “What can you do, Punchinello, little fellow? What can you do, Punchinello, little dear? So Cornwall leaps out of the starting block with an impressive 1st round score ending of 9. But guess what… Manchester followed right back a dem and did it toooo to tie at 9… But when di Speed section start now, di game change to 1-2-3 Redlight… Every time Cornwall turn roun, Manchester just freeze.. But when dem back turn dem just fly roun dem in time fi di buzzer section that segued into the final game of STUCKY… Now u si WHEN Manchester lick Cornwall,, All when di match dun, not a soul was roun fi pull dem.. It was a heated finish that found Manchester pulling away from Cornwall in what seemed as stealth mode.. Lovely game.. Very intensed.. Extremely entertaining.. Final socre 31-19.. “There they go… around the ring…and when u see dem, up in Manchester, you know u love dem…cause they can do the 24 boxes up and down” (Who writes these things… Geez)
