  • The JAAA’s World Relays blunder

    Different strategies are tried and tested and the best combination selected after what is essentially a period of trial and error. So when an international event is scheduled and an arrangement is made for attendance, it is reasonable to assume that for a country like Jamaica, the world’s sprint capital, administrators, technical experts (management), and athletes themselves would liaise to ensure the best possible results.

    Not so here in this fair land of ours. The first hint of problems came with the surprise withdrawal of an icon and legend, Yohan Blake, over what appears to be differences of opinion between what he thought was his best chance of performing well at the relays vis-à-vis what the coaches and those in charge of the team to Japan thought.

    Whither Jamaica's track & field...



    My answer is simple: Nothing has happened that wasn't there before. The truth is that there is always a strong inevitability component at play in all sport, summed up simply as “eventually, winners will eventually lose”. It is the same premise that underscores the rise of empires. Eventually, they too will fall.
