From the dawn of time, Jamaica and Jamaicans have been competing at the highest level at World Championships, Summer Games or Olympic Games and you name it. One may ask a question, how is it that Jamaica have not more Olympic champions, more World champions to date? We will answer that question later in this video. Welcome back to the channel my friends. A few years ago, Jamaica bought made-on-female team at the set of a second and third places in the sprints. No matter how hard they tried, they were always beaten by some other team, including the mighty Americans. Do you remember him on short? Do you remember Merlin Joyce Oti? What about Grace Jackson's model? These were world-class superstars in your own right. But, did you know that Merlin Oti is still one of the fastest over 60 meters with a time of 6.96 seconds? She's also rated fifth on the world athletics list of fastest females over 60 meters. Merlin Oti achieved this time on February 14, 1992, running in Spain, Madrid. What about Raymond Stewart? One of Raymond Stewart's fastest times in the 100 meters was 9.96 seconds, hosted in Indianapolis, USA on August 9, 1997. Stewart competed in the 50 meters, the 60 meters the 100 meters and was a part of several four by 100 meter teams put together by Jamaica in those days. Raymond Stewart also competed against the very best in the world at the time, names like Carl Louis, Andre Carson, the spectacular Dennis Mitchell. In fact, Dennis Mitchell was beaten by Raymond Stewart often times. Look at the race on screen. Raymond Stewart was a formidable and fierce sprinter in his own right. So, why may go on to ask the question, why is it that Jamaica did not capture more Olympics and world championship medals in those days? Marguerde will tell you that the field was not leveled. There were many athletes who was phoned to be using performance and unseen drugs. We don't need to go far, we don't need to speculate because everything is on Google. Just Google the names and we would have seen all the names who used to compete between 1980 and 1997 and work hard using performance and unseen drugs. Hence the reason why a lot more Jamaicans did not win a lot more medals. Am I pointing fingers at a particular country? No, sports circuit 345 is just here to state a fax. Not to find fingers on anyone, we can Google and we can see. My closing argument is this, the playing field is no more leveled so we can see at least from all around the world, not just Jamaica winning medals, at least from Africa, at least from Europe, at least from the Caribbean, becoming world champions, becoming Olympic champions because there were those countries who think that they could have used drugs and get away with it. It's all that remains true. Merlin Joyce Ody, Grace Jackson Small and others did not have Olympic medals really to show, I mean Olympic gold medals to show for their art, her and labor. But you know what? They would have gone down in history as some of the greatest competitors ever to grace the sport. I believe fear play in sport, whether it be football, whether it be truck and field, whether it be boxing, I do not believe people should be using any form of drugs to gain an edge over their team. Listen to Dennis Mitchell what he had to say about athletes who use performance and unseen drugs. Listen to what he has to say and I will hand with that. Moving that Ben Johnson was taking steroids and it has been admitted that Ben Johnson was taking steroids and when he did break the World Record, I think it should be specialism. We want to stop drug use within our sport and that's just a very strong statement against the uses of drugs by taking away a world record from an athlete who admitted that they once took them.
