No !!! Zharnel Hughes is not the new Usain Bolt

X. Stop being profound and think.

Making the team is one thing ,dollars and sense is another,if he runs for JA and beats all under the sun,it makes dollars and sense ,esp in the black,gold and green.Sorry to buss yuh bubble.

If he runs for the U.K. and beats all under the sun in Rio, his earnings would faaaaar exceed what is possible in the black green and gold.

Seems to be a word you cling to,and yes i disagree.You underestimate the black gold and green in europe.Our music,culture and people have levelled that commercial playing field,worse yet in the states.

Profoundly..lol

leveled that playing field? Stop being profound.

If Usain Bolt were American or British he would already have become the first sporting billionaire.

Who is the highest payed female athlete in track and field?

I will give you a hint... it is not Shelly Ann Fraser. Even though she betta dan all a dem! Do you think that would obtain if she were American or British or German or Brazilian or Canadian or Chinese or Indian or Nigerian or South African or, or, or...

Who is the second highest paid female athlete in track and field?

I will give you a hint... it is not Shelly Ann Fraser.

Who is the third highest paid female athlete in track and field?

I will give you a hint... it is not Shelly Ann Fraser.

Who is the fourth highest paid female athlete in track and field?

I will give you a hint...

Jamaica had the potential to position itself because we have had roughly 10 truly glorious years in Track and field but we didn't make the correct investment to harness it and preserve it and secure a legacy for generations.
Why aren't we positioning ourselves to host a commonwealth games? We can't even attain Diamond League status...

Instead we drink our own kool aid and feel slighted when the world does not compensate us commensurate with our own foolish expectations... as evidenced by a foolish statement about black green and gold and a playing field leveled. Such statements are rooted in a profound (there's that word again) lack of understanding of how sponsorship and markets work.

Comment raise your level when you step in the ring with me, I dont need to trace(call names) to make a point to you ,you will do it for me, with your silly contradictions, further more it shows you lack faith in your positions! That said

By your own assesment its not that we could not make more or just as much money in the era of Bolt,but it is becuase the administrators missed it,what you did not say is that that oppourtunity is still there for future generations because of the brand name of Bolt and Jamaica.

Oppourtunities for marketing, investment and proper administration,unless you believe it flew us bye bye.If Shelly Ann is such a case ,its an example of that.

USAT&F/Nike got overthrown by a country boy from Jamaica and Puma on the international stage of athletics, in other words international stage of athletic marketing.

A journalist said that Bolt isnt marketable internationally just after he won in
Bejing because he is from Jamaica, i blew him up then ,like you now.You have no clue as to the marketability of Jamaican culture in the two commerical/PR capitals of the world hence you speak from a point of ignorance.NY & London.

The reason is simple you live in Jamaica, so your concepts are antiquated as to our value, its colonial e.g Penn relays beamed all over the USA by NBC and the world , is marketed as a USA vs Jamaica, they feature our track and field stars from high school to pros ,ask yourself why ?

Leave the word profound alone, a bredda use to use the word obtuse , until it came out he didnt know how to use it.

Bredrin. Stop being profound. You are all over the place.

I have a very good idea of Jamaica's marketability...or more rather the potential for it.

Puma have tried very hard with the help of the greatest sportsman of our generation and they are still about to go bankrupt.

It is you that have no idea of how this potenial can be harnessed which is why you make silly statements about the black gold and green leveling things.
But I won't argue this anymore.

I will maintain that if Zharnel wins in Rio as an Englishman his marketability will FAAARRR exceed that of him winning as a Jamaican. You seem to disagree.

I have a multiple choice for you that will demonstrate my point.

If Usain or Shelly did what they did as British or Americans do you think their income would be:
a) less than what they earn now.
b) the same as what they earn now
c) many many many multiples more than what they earn now

Engage your brain, answer as honestly as you can and then try to correlate that answer to your foolish statement about black gold and green and a level playing field. You will find that you can't...
