    JAAA official laughing stock of World Athletics

    they have now officially lost any credibility or PERCEIVED power they had, CLEAN HOUSE!!!!! THOSE GOONS HAVE PLACED A BLACK EYE ON SIXTY YEARS OF WORK, the only economical analogy for them is STAGFLATION, and I thought Bush could not be surpassed... I AM EMBARRASSED!!!!!!!!!!

    BERLIN, Germany รข€” IAAF secretary general Pierre Weiss says Jamaica has withdrawn its request to ban sprint star Asafa Powell and several teammates from the athletics world championships.

    Weiss says the IAAF has put pressure on the federation to change its mind because the exclusion of the six prominent athletes would reflect badly on the championship itself."

    Any idiot could have foreseen that you dont last-minute ban 2 Oly champs and a multiple former WR holder without turning Berlin into a fiasco!!

    I said this days ago and now am proven right.

    Weiss should not have mentioned it though, as that was unhelpful.
    I say it again...JAAA lacks strategic foresight. no body there ever studied strategy, apparently.

      Jamaican stars cleared for Berlin


      ATHLETICS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS
      Venue: Olympic Stadium, Berlin Date: 15-23 August
      Coverage: Watch the action live and highlights on BBC Two, BBC HD, Red Button, Radio 5 live and the BBC Sport website (video for UK users only)
      Full BBC coverage details
      Powell recently came sixth in the 100m at the London Grand Prix

      Five top Jamaican runners including Asafa Powell have been cleared to compete in the World Championships, Powell's agent Paul Doyle has claimed. Powell, Olympic champions Shelly-Ann Fraser and Melaine Walker, plus Brigitte Foster-Hylton and Shericka Williams, had missed team training.
      That prompted the national federation to consider taking them off the team.
      But Doyle stated the Jamaican Amateur Athletic Association had a change of heart over the affair.
      He said: "The JAAA submitted a letter to the International Association of Athletics Federations asking for the athletes to be relieved from the starting lists.
      "Some discussions happened and the Jamaican federation sent another letter asking that their earlier letter be withdrawn. Removing the athletes was not good for anybody. If the athletes don't get to run, everybody loses."
      Powell, 26, had earlier said the internal dispute was harming the team, claiming: "For the federation to be fighting your own athletes does not make sense."
      606: DEBATE

      The JAAA should ban all MVP athletes. The same thing happens at the Olympics last year



      djkbrown2001

      The former 100m world record holder said the five athletes, who are coached by Stephen Francis at the Maximising Velocity Power (MVP) Track Club, did not know they had to attend the Nuremberg camp.
      "We did not know the camp was mandatory," said Powell. "We decided to make a change this year and treat this championship like a normal track meeting. I guess that caused all the problem.
      He also said the federation had been at odds with Francis for some time.
      Powell is considered to be one of the potential challengers to fellow Jamaican Usain Bolt, the triple Olympic gold medallist and 100m and 200m world record holder, for a gold medal in Berlin.
      THERE IS ONLY ONE ONANDI LOWE!

      "Good things come out of the garrisons" after his daughter won the 100m Gold For Jamaica.


      "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

        Here we go again KLAS news just reported that the JAAA and IAAF are now in a meeting and will organize a joint press conference to announce the withdrawal of the 6 MVP athletes. Who to believe.

              FIFA would have disqualified them and replaced them with an interim board, or run their operations out of Zurich.

              And I thought we couldn't get worse than WICB!

                        I remember when working at a five star hotel in Mobay, I was suppose to go on a leadership study on scholarship. The then operations manager who was English (now the Managing Director) said to me I hope they teach you to manage Jamaicans.

                        I was offended but it seems like our leaders makes their own rules and try fi "manage Jamaicans" instead of providing leadership.
                        • Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.

                              You've experienced that too huh? More like a period of embarrassment. We should swap stories sometime.
