Damn Trini's can't catch a break in this Olympics, first Bovell qualified for the 50 M and came 7th now Baptiste qualifies for the 100 M and came 6th.

If Trinis want to catch a break dem have to work harder, just like the Jamaicans.

leave trinidad alone please! Rampual is getting back his mojo and Dinesh will win the game tomorrow and all will be well.

the events trandscending the games so far which absolutely makes one sit up and notice and are worth taking the time to mention.....are Phelps and Serena..at 30-31 showing no signs of let up!

Phelps is simply incredible..one of the very gretest athletes of all time..not just in his sport!

Jamaica's Shelly-Ann Fraser retained her Olympic 100m title!

She clocked a fast 10.75 to win ahead of American favourite Carmelita Jeter (10.78), and fellow-Jamaican Veronica Campbell-Brown (10.81). Trinidad's Kelly-Ann Baptiste finished a creditable sixth with 10.94, making this one of the fastest women's 100ms ever....

Tennis in the Olympics is a waste of time - might as well have cricket, ha ha ha ha.

Phelps is 27 years old. You think any elderly 30 year old could do what he did. You beginning to sound like the yanks - ha ha ha ha.

OLYMPICS SEMI-FINALS - MEN'S 100M

Plenty of Caribbean athletes on display in this semi-final.

Semis start 2:50 PM Eastern Caribbean Time.

[Arnik]

Jamaican connections everywhere.

I see Jessica Innis's father is from Jamaica.

[DMan]

We also have Trini's in each of the 3 heats of the Semi-Finals Men 100M. But I don't think any of them will qualify for the finals though, the only one who has a SLIGHT chance is Richard Thompson.

[mikesiva]

Thompson did reach the final but Bolt was the man....

He clocked 9.63 which is the second fastest time ever....

Another jamaican yohan blake second in 9.75. Seven finalists clocked under 10 seconds....outstanding....including thompson.

Afro these west indians beat not only new zealand....but the entire world.
