🗣️ “I can’t do this anymore. It’s very frustrating dealing with JOA and JAAA. These people don’t care about field events in Jamaica.”

🇯🇲 Jamaica’s Danniel Thomas-Dodd goes off on the after the Jamaican Olympic Association and the Jamaican Athletics Administrative Association for denying a credential for her coach. She hasn’t seen him in 2.5 weeks.
More of her comments from this video:
“It’s very frustrating. This is something that I’m more than capable of obtaining and I came up short today.”
“That’s the irony of it. The gold medal that they were sitting down waiting for did not come from the track. It came from the field events. And those are the events that they neglect so much in Jamaica.”
“Most of the medals that we have gotten so far at these games come from the field events and we are the most marginalized group in Jamaican track and field. It’s time for them to stop and really reflect on what they are doing to us as athletes.”

Draymond Green says A'ja Wilson needs to be viewed as the most marketable player in the WNBA and has the potential to be the greatest player of all time
“The best thing since sliced bread in the WNBA is A'ja Wilson. I'm not necessarily in the mindset that it's all Caitlin Clark, no, A'ja Wilson is great. A'ja Wilson to me is the American dream. Coming from a two-parent household, grew, got better, young Black girl, had everything against her, beat the odds to become what soon will be known as the greatest player to ever grace the WNBA. That's quite honestly my opinion. I think A'ja Wilson is as marketable as anybody in the WNBA, but you have to figure out how to market the product.”
