My Thoughts on the Relays and Team Selection Politricks at the World Championships in Budapest

By now most of us have seen the video of sprinter Tyquendo Tracey laying out his concerns following his removal from the relay pool for the men’s 4x100m event. I’m not going to go into the details, nex ting mi go end up inna ants nest wid people potential libel suit. But the video is out there on social media, so feel free to watch and draw our own conclusions.

Me looking at all the relay bangarang. (The expression though! I swear our athletes are unintentional comedians and walking memes.😂)

Before that, we were all left scratching our heads and/or cussing about the selection process following the horrific performance of our mixed 4x400m team. Two legs in particular. It just neva look good and it cast a pall over the proceedings. It was a truly inauspicious start and we should have been prepared for the mess to come, but we were distracted by the long wait for our first gold medal (BIG UP YUSELF DANIELLE WILLIAMS! RIGHT THRU!!) and we left all thought of the relays for later. Then Tyquendo’s video dropped and all hell broke loose.

Budapest World Championships A Stress Me Outtttt!!

Hello! Hi! Howdy!

How long has it been? Di ‘mount a dust mi did afi blow offa dis blog. Mighty God of Daniel! But I’m back! (Not permanently. I’m just feeling inspired by the ongoing World Championships in Budapest, Hungary.)

Speaking of, why it a stress out Jamaica so? Why it a try move like London 2017, aka that World Champs that we don’t talk about?! Is like somebody work some premium guzu pon wi. Broady drop, Jaydon get injured—two almost sure gold medals and possible championships records just gone soso so. Oblique come fourth, Hansle nuh win, and then to make it worse, Such Girl go win di 100m. Puppa Jeezas!
