Just to participate in the Olympics is a great achievement so medal or no medal you are a winner. You are doing the thing you love; you are using your talent, and that is a blessing. Yes, Trinidad and Tobago participated in the Olympics, and Keshorn Walcott is the only athlete to receive a medal... Bronze for Men's Javelin Throw. Hats off to him! Good job, but I must say; all of the other athletes that did not get a medal, hats off to you as well because you did your best. Your performance was no fault of yours. Trinidad and Tobago doesn't invest in our athletes, and this has been the norm for more than 50 years.

Trinbagonians, do you remember when Bernard Julien and other cricketers left T&T for England to play for Kent in Kerry Packer's World Series Cricket? Lots of people were angry. I was young, but I remembered my father saying that they were right. Trinbago wasn't giving them a dime, and all of the big wigs were living large off of them playing cricket and winning.

It is about time that Trinidad and Tobago spend big money and invest in our athletes.

Hope you are having a nice day.
