To all Jamaican Olypians! Big Up! You all have done an excellent job. Jamacians rule the track and field events! I myself used to run track & field & long jump in MoBay. You all make me want to run in the next olympics. Keep up the amazing job that you are all doing. We are back on the map.

I must disagree with Skeptical and agree with Andrea. Jamaica has been robbed so many times of the glory and respect that we truly deserve. I still don’t know why people can’t believe Jamaicans are naturally talented. We been training from wi young wen mama a wap yu skin wid tambourine switch, yu betta run:).

The thing is half of the people who are “chatting dem mouth” have never been to Jamaica to see the type of livity we go true so track and field is a way to overcome the problems of our sweet country and unite.But like the late Garnet Silk said, “talk dem a talking but we go keep dem talking” Listen, no one questions any other country when they succeed but as Jamaica does well its a problem all of a sudden.

I only have one question to ask and that is: what took us so long to show the world we are not playing anymore. I guest it 3 World Records finally got their attention.

why can’t the skeptics believe that the jamaicans who trained in jamaica have raw talent? they don’t even have the money for proper equipment or facilities much to buy dope. first of all, the wouldn’t have been able to return home after the shame and disgrace they would have brought upon the ppl of jamaica. jamaicans do not like to be embarassed on the world stage. the musicians in jamaica would have a song ready for them when he/she comes off the plane. maybe if the skeptics understand the culture of jamaica then they would understand. track and field is in our blood from conception. there is competition at the school level from preschool to colleges and universities. so many athletes have used drugs in the past in order to achieve victory that it now seems unbelievable if an athlete succeeds without it.the jamaicans have been robbed too many times in the past by the likes of marion jones and justin gatlin. even carl lewis have tested positive before, except he blames it on cough syrup or something like that. come on ppl, get over it and let the jamaicans be. i dont hear anyone saying that michael phelps and the other swimmers, sanya richards(jamaican born)or the kenyans take dope. let the jamaicans be. ppl are just jealous. don’t forget, jamaica was always referred to as the sprint capital of the world. come on haters, get over it and let us celebrate.

I don’t care how many times they have been tested, if I remember, Marion Jones and Tim Montogomery never failed a test either. The most ridiculous of all of the sprint champions is Shelly Ann Frazer who has never amounted to much of anything on a world level. I’m pretty skeptical when people run a full second faster that they did just a year ago.

Paulette you don’t know how glad I am that we took the gold, the Jamaican athletes did extremely well at the Olympics and they should have a national holiday for the greatest achievements in Jamaican track and field history. Hats off to Bolt for his donation that was a real God blessed deed.

We should change the name from Jamaica land of wood and water to

Jamaica Land of Wood, Water and Gold……
