Is Jamaica really dominant at sprinting like that though?
Just playing devils advocate here , but if you take away Bolt how many gold medals in stinging would they have?

Bolt is a dominant sprinter, but that doesn't mean the whole country is dominant.
They are a great sprinting country though, and always in contention, but dominant?

Since others have mentioned the dominance of Jamaican women, I'll talk about Asafa Powell and Yohan Blake.

If Usain Bolt is the fastest man ever, Powell and Blake are both in the top 5. They have many of the fastest times ever at the 100 and 200.

If Bolt never existed, Jamaica would still have dominated the 2008 and 2012 Olympics because of those cats.

Good stuff you the US Women's IVB team. Netherlands played well but they were up against a wall.

Exactly and what field is gonna make you the biggest money the fastest.

I mean how many big ass dudes who play basketball never liked sport. But played cause they were big and it would get them into the league.

If tomorrow american track and field was handing out 40 mill signing bonuses with 100 mill contracts or 140 mill guaranteed contracts best believed that elite talent would increase immensely.

Ton of kats would be turning down football and basketball (with their parents help) to run track.

If usain bolt was born in the USA, he would have been a football player
