The wildest part about POVERTY is how much time it steals. Waiting for buses. Calling assistance offices. Comparing grocery prices. Fighting insurance. Sitting at laundromats. Being poor is a second job nobody pays you for.

Im gonna say something controversial: a lot of you would do stuff like this for a man but huff and puff when your parents ask you to help them write an email, letter or fill out an application
We live in a country where there are people who still nuh have no weh comfortable since Hurricane Melissa, mind you, we are in the 2026 hurricane season and people are getting upset at others for highlighting the issues in this country...
Serious question…
The people saying Argentina is racist… do they also support Portugal, Spain, England, France, Brazil, the Netherlands, Belgium, the USA, Uruguay, Germany, Colombia, Mexico or Italy?
Did they skip world history? If we judged countries solely by their history of racism, there wouldn’t be much of a World Cup left to support.
Racism still exists all over the world unfortunately…But sports unites us and gives us a reason to celebrate people from different races, backgrounds and cultures.
Let’s keep it about the football.
Y’all need to cut the crap now. Yes they are racist regardless of if you think you experienced it yes or no. I notice most Jamaicans deny racism even at home in JA and can’t seem to pick up on micro aggressions right at the bridge of their noses.
A lot of Jamaicans who live in the UK 🇬🇧 say the same thing, what I find is that they don’t even understand subliminal or subtle racism, if the N word or other language is not used some wouldn’t know.
@TrillaryBlinton Correct that our hair is pillowy and holds shape because it floats instead of falls. BUT. Natural hair is not supposed to be dry. The problem is black women dont spend time on their own hair. My hair is 4c and naturally soft. If it's stiff /hard I know I did something wrong.
Franno walked away from a promising finance career to chase a different ambition: proving Jamaican sprinters could become world champions without ever leaving home.
In 1999, he co-founded the MVP Track & Field Club in Kingston, and over the next two decades reshaped global sprinting. His genius lay in developing numerous world-class sprinters who have dominated international competitions often taking athletes dismissed as “ordinary” and forging them into champions.
The results were staggering. Under his guidance, MVP athletes won 56 IAAF World Championship medals, 28 Olympic medals, 25 Jamaican National Records, three Olympic Records and five World Records
His roster reads like a hall of fame: former 100m world record holder Asafa Powell, multiple Olympic 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, double Olympic sprint champion and fastest woman alive, Elaine Thompson-Herah, alongside Shericka Jackson and Brigitte Foster-Hylton.
Beyond the medals, Francis’s true legacy was philosophical: he proved that world-class athletes can be discovered, trained, and managed entirely within Jamaica, breaking the old pipeline to American colleges and giving Jamaica ownership of its own sprinting destiny.
Jamaica has lost one of its great builders of sport, and the Caribbean has lost a man whose work gave all of us reason to stand taller.
Stephen “Franno” Francis helped turn talent into discipline, promise into excellence, and Caribbean speed into a language the world could not ignore. We saw the athletes flying down the track, carrying Jamaica and the region with them. Behind those moments were the early mornings, the hard truths, the science, the standards and the belief of a coach who helped make greatness possible.
Barbados, too, felt his hand through our own Sada Williams, whose journey at MVP helped carry her to historic heights for our country. For so many boys and girls across the Caribbean, his work proved that small islands can still shake the world.
On behalf of the Government and people of Barbados, I extend deepest condolences to his family, the MVP family, his athletes, the people of Jamaica, and all across the Caribbean who mourn him with gratitude.
May he rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to run in every young athlete who dares to believe.
I love Jamaica! 😂 The lifeguard just told this bad ass kid in the pool, “aye boy, tappi drowning” cause he’d taken in some water and was coughing. And the kid just…stopped. 😂😂
