Caribbean is actually better as "West Indian" has heavy former British crown connotations and generally excludes the Spanish and French speaking islands.


And it's not India.

Talk about French and Spanish speaking islands when the Taino and Arawak Indians who are indigenous to the lower and upper leeward islands were there first and the current population are literally decedents of the Tainos and Arawaks

Nobody is building over the top stuff to go into debt for the Olympics anymore.

It's only in Paris this year and LA next time because everyone else dropped out. Brisbane is already promising no new stadiums for 2032 after being given the games.

That Paris stadium they could’ve added a retractable roof to it.. come on bro

again what I said still stands, you tried to dunk and missed, as if I'm supposed type out "u know uk and france fought over the little island, etc etc, " like I'm the Olympic announcer. Sit your British wannabe sing songy accent a$$ down

Look at this bozo getting mad… you didn’t even put any context to your post.. You can’t say st Lucia was a French colony without mentioning the British and them literally fighting for that island 17 fukkin times where ultimately the British won out and at Lucia became a British commonwealth

Now take this dunk you fake ass West Indian and ya ex…

America only has the infrastructure and facilities due to SLAVERY of Africans.
Phd, technical programs at a master's level are full of Indians, Chinese, and Africans.

We can tell you haven't been anywhere

i swear you say the dumbest shyt. Your logic can be applied to almost every eurocentric country in the world.

fukk it. I'm claiming all of Bron's championships and accomplishment after he left the Heat as Heat shyt too.

He learned how to lock in and win in Miami.

That’s not the same

Ok they couldn’t add a tarp at the top? Where they could manually open and close it? It’s a slight modification

 

[GoPro]

We ain’t talking about you this about the Olympics …. You sound like Archie Bunker

Says this
"you as an American can’t take advantage of that same opportunity even tho you have the upper hand as a u.s citizen "

then says this
"We ain’t talking about you this"



But congrats to St. Lucia for their first medal, gotten by a Jamaica-to-America-trained athlete.

Signed x Archie and em

Sha'carri frauding

Alfred beat her twice in a hour and 40 minutes and she was right beside her both times

 

[MikelArteta]

Shacarri needs to contact kambudji coach, kambudji always got these goat starts but she just doesnt have the top end speed to finish

For what? Who has built a retractable roof for an Olympic games? And this is not the 1st Olympic race to have rainfall.
