Jamaican Bobsled Team Has No Regrets

((HT: ITN))

As well they shouldn't...

They finished 29th out of 30 squads in Sochi, but as they reach their 12th year of competing, they still hold one of the more popular teams out there...

Here's the wrap-up on their efforts from Russia...


And here's to hoping that they keep coming back to compete...

It's Bobsled Time!!!

((HT: MyJamaicaJTB))

The Jamaican Bobsled team made it to Sochi...

So what if they are dead last of the 30 teams after the first two runs in the two man...

They made it and they're back...

And they have they're own newly-minted theme song...


Love the old school Atari-looking flashback graphics package!!!

A "Cool Runnings" Sequel, Jamaicans Qualify For Sochi

We all remember the first round and how (pardon the pun) cool it was to have the Jamaican Bobsleigh Team work their magic on the course...

Starting with Calgary in 1988
((HT: IOC))


That was revisited 25 years later...
((HT: Global Toronto))


Now, after an absence, they have qualified for Sochi...
But... and it's a big but... they need close to $80-grand to make the trip...

Driver Winston Watts is back and ready:

"We're pretty good," Watts said after the Sochi notification. "We're not there with the rest of the world, of course. But we if had some more sources for funding, we'd have a better chance."

If you're so inclined, as the HQ is, you can donate through PayPal here...
We hope they make it...
