hmm... everyone says jamaicas the new world power in track and field.

WHERE ARE THIER DISTANCE RUNNERS? 400M RUNNERS FOR THAT MATTER? 4X4?4X8? DISTANCE RUNNERS? WEIGHTMEN? JUMPERS? VAULTERS? AND I MIGHT AS WELL THROW IN DECATHALONERS! (you have to be an all around athlete to be a decathaloner, and I what else is usain bolt good at?)

@PhiyukYu You make a great point here. Jamaica has had great sprinters, but on the other hand, Bolt is contemplating competing in the long jump. That's a threat to all jumpers everywhere. The next Carl Lewis?

Sorry, I couldn't let this one go...

It's DECATHLETE, not decathaloner =P

@ westideas I don't disagree with anything you say, but to my point, sprinting is a strength in Jamaica because Jamaicans value it as a sport. If Bolt were Brazilian he would be playing football/soccer. If he were American he would be playing American football or basketball. Aside from sprinting's popularity, the relative inexpense of the sport and Ja's tropic climate, which helps in year-round training, are other reasons Jamaica has emerged as one of the best sprinting countries.

[westideas]

@RedGlareMcNasty Population, resources and facilities has the most to do with results, the rest is just rare talent. With Ja's population there isn't enough people or resources to spread around. Most small and poorer countries just pick a decipline and focus on it. Example: Cuba (jumps), Ja (sprints). Ja have proven its longevity over the years (Quarrie, Cameron, Wynt, Ottey etc.) and also we have some of history's fastest men being from Ja e.g D Bailey, L Christie. Also China is a major force.

[RedGlareMcNasty]

@westideas Population size has nothing to do with results. If that were the case, China and India would dominate sporting competitions. Jamaicans obviously treasure sprinting (not all of Track & Field), so the majority of the country's elite athletes are going to be funneled into that sport. Jamaica certainly has to be recognized as the best sprinting nation presently, but longivity is the true test of greatness, so if Jamaica can continue dominate well into the future they deserve the WP title

decathletes are good at a lot of events but not usually exceptional in a single one. Except for Dan O'brien people take up decathlon when they cannot compete at one even well enough.
