I thought this was interesting. Proud Jamaicans will tell you their sprinters are #1...the best of all time. The 400 meters is a sprint. Doesn't require a big budget..doesn't take funds to go once around. But since 1896 Jamaica's men have one gold medal in the 4 x 400...and in 15 world championships...none. Wondering the opinions on why....they are awesome in the 4 x 100...why not the 4 x 400? Or for that matter another low-budget event...the long jump?
Bolt is awesome...but would love to see him try the LJ - like Carl...or the 400m..it would be fun to see
