Indeed extraordinary, as "Blacks don't do cold weather" -- STORY: Only 24 years later, another Jamaican bobsledding team qualifies for Olympics.

"Blacks don't do cold weather."

A Black female boss told me that many, many years ago, a statement borne out by worldwide demographic distributions. And thus, with so relatively few Black athletes in winter sports, to have a team from the tropics actually qualify is indeed extraordinary.


Of course, even as I respected that Black male swimmer several Olympics back for representing his country in another sport where few Black males excel in due to physiological traits (they are far less buoyant than males of other races), I respect these teams.
