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. -
I agree. I don't understand this mentality. Jamaican companies are huge at Penn and Jamaica is more than represented. The DJ is dancehall music, Jamaican good is all over the place and Grace's logo is large and plentiful as if they are the title sponsors.
So, not sure why we think we deserve some of the profits just because...

Jamaican schools get anything from Boys Champs and Gibson Relays? Maybe we should start there.- 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.

Yes Florida Gator Relays is the one I was thinking about too. Been going on for a very long time , some girls teams from Morant Bay went there in the late 70s/early 80s."It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men" - Frederick DouglassComment

all of those people?
Break it down for me then, what claim would each have to proceeds from Penn? I agree dem probably could make a money (fundraisers etc) but from Penn itself what would be the nature of their claim?

Agree but if they think they can, why not start with getting even a little from ISSA especially for the poorer schools that they don't want people to transfer from? Then they maybe could convince Penn into doing a worthy cause at least for some of the schools.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth.

Penn owns it the way ISSA owns champs and so Penn is trying to sell its product to make more money, not to give hand-outs.

And I assume if the cause was well planned Penn wouldn't mind give a few thousands and been pictured with a worthy cause in Jamaican athletics.
We need to look to ourselves before looking to others. Build from within first.

Yuh ever go a di Bank of Jamaica building? On the main floor, there is a huge sculpture of an outstretched hand.
Something tells me it was designed or commissioned by the same founding father who gave us the meaning of the black in our flag.
