Well Prince, shame on you. I am glad you apologized especially since my
maternal grandpa is a "Narr".

<< In my last posting about the match between Morocco and The Gambia I stated
that,
 "nothing spectacular happened in the second half except a disallowed goal by
the Moroccans and the sending-off of Jatto Ceesay for spitting on a "narr" ".
 As a Gambian, I take no pride in the last phrase "spitting on a narr",
neither do I condone such an action as something spectacular. I, personally,
found it utterly disgusting to say the least. I could have written the
sentence without the phrase, but I was only giving the reason why Jatto
Ceesay was sent-off.
 However, I wish to extend my unreserved apology to all who think that I was
being jubilant for Jatto' action and I also ask for a re-analysis of my
statement to verify that I do not consider "spitting on a Narr" as
spectacular, but the sending-off of Jatto Ceesay.
 I hope I will be forgiven for any distress I might have caused with that
phrase.
