In the men's 110m hurdles final today there were three Jamaicans (Bennett, Broadbell, Parchment) one of whom accidentally took the wrong bus to another venue for the semi-final and almost missed his chance of getting into the final but then a volunteer gave him cash to grab a cab. And today he raced in the final!!!

I'm sorry i missed his name i was too busy loudly weeping over how beautiful the olympic spirit is. Anyhow Broadbell got bronze so there's a third of a chance that volunteer won him that bronze

Now that was a photo finish. I really thought Team Jamaica had got the gold, but upon further review, the judges decided that it was Team USA who reached the finish line first by a half-second, so Lyles scored the gold while Thompson took silver. That was amazing.

NOAH LYLES GOLD IN THE 100M‼️

Thank You, Team Jamaica 🇯🇲

The festivities are over, but History was made at the 2024 Paris Olympics. From July 26 to August 11, Athletes from around the World competed on the World stage for Gold, World Records, larger than life opportunities, and bragging rights. This post was made to salute the members of Team Jamaica who not only competed (sending love to those who didn’t get to make the official team), but made names…

This is the first step.

We will build on this.

Heartbreak for our Girlz but wi proud same way. They fought to the last whistle and got further than we could have dreamed. I hope our federation finally does right by them and I know we will come back stronger 👏🏾

I loved seeing our coach embrace Linda Caicedo so warmly at the end and the exchange of jerseys also. Congrats Columbia! Good luck against England! Do it for the region!

Guys, I know a lot of you who follow me on here maybe don't really care about soccer all that much and I get it, that's totally fair. It's not for everybody! But this sport is so so so important to me. Over the last 24 hours I have watched soccer supporters raise money to send small journalistic efforts to Australia and New Zealand to cover the Women's World Cup IN ONE MONTH. Most legacy news media outlets have not been investing in platforms and reporters who genuinely love the women's game. In fact, many of our small platforms have been defunded by parental organizations since the end of the Men's World Cup in Qatar. Even the host platform will, again, be fronting a misogynistic, ultra conservative, anti abortion, hateful human being as the main correspondent to this competition. But soccer fans are working to change that! And they've done so much already!

Another thing that soccer fans are working to change is helping to make sure that the Reggae Girlz (Jamaican Women's National Team) is able, as well, to go to the Women's World Cup and able to focus solely on training and performing their best at this competition for only their second appearance ever.

If you're able, I'd encourage you to donate to their fundraiser to help them in their endeavors. And, if you don't really watch soccer, I really encourage you to watch the Women's World Cup. The Reggae Girlz have immaculate vibes and they are in a group going against France, Brasil and Panama, which I am promising you will be fun.

Anyway, please reblog if you can!
