Actually ppl did criticized Shelly-ann so I don't see why this chick would be exempt from any criticisms.
.....but she is a whole package, the cursing, the nails, the hair, the tats, eye lashes, is she going to a club or track meet?

I know but let her do her thing....she will need to be 100 percent focused on her task at hand because this could be the greatest women's 100 the Olympics ever seen...I am rooting for the yardies so if yall want America's best sprinter distracted on some other shit do yall thing
And now people love Shelly Ann
Personality wise, she and Shelly-Ann is not the same, total opposite. Shelly Ann was shy with braces and didn't portrayed that "hood" image.
Most ppl didn't even know she was from Waterhouse.
As for the hair, most of the the time it was a representation of her country's flag colors.
I hear you Boss. We going to agree to disagree on this one. I will do some more checking to see if I am missing something beyond a loud hood chick in terms of Sha'Carri. That loud hood image is damn near a cliche at this point but if that's who she is, that's who she is at this moment in her life. Let the sprinter sprint and do her thing (especially after her moms passing).
Agreed. I rather let my runner succeed being them then suppress them and they begin to struggle.
I think it's more than it's a woman doing this that got some of these dudes uptight than anything
Could be...never thought of the gender angle....I have just always been uncomfortable with people telling people to tone it down...always seems to be more behind that type of language....plus she young, lost her moms and about to be on the world stage....let her run her race in the way she feels comfortable (within reason of course)
Usian Bolt comes to mind he was a showman on the field,people called it passion. We have cultural differences on how we express ourselves to the world. I for one appreciate her skills and attitude.
Exactly. Loosing her mother along with struggling after leaving school for that first year professionally just to overcome it this season is something she feel proud about and express it wholeheartedly. She's not disrespectful to any of her opponents just young and jovial.
The reason I bring up the gender angle is because I've seen plenty of male athletes show a ton of emotion after winning a meet and get no criticism but they acting like this young girl is an embarrassment to our community.. fuck outta with that shit
Even though you know I’m repping my folks from Tobago, I always got a sweet spot for everyone black.
Imagine having to explain cultural pride in sports when other cultures engage in genocide.
If a mothafucka is a little tight that I love my black people he can probably go suck on a dick.
I think people are being too harsh on her
She is a young girl trying to find herself
Media training and “professionalism” will come with age
the only red flag I have heard about her is the large entourage
That’s what could get her in trouble
Needs to learn the lesson about keeping circle small a be tight

usain bolt was not hood. in the least.
You missed the point about how people express themselves differently we are not a monolithic people. Looking Hood no bearing on her ability to do her job. But unless you can Sprint the 100m in less than 11sec and on the Olympic team then our opinions are just that.
I like her personality if she could back up her words then let her keep doing what she is doing. Some people said the same thing about some of the 1980s university of Miami football team and look what they did.
where is that epic walk down thread at ...?
here is one ...
That was bad ass.
She was like..where the fuck you going...

usain's last name is bolt. he was also not running around the track hollering expletives.
please don't be dense.
that chick looks like a fucking anime character.
Chick is trying to be a cultural phenomenon. Y’all sound like 50 year cardigan with pleat pants cacs.
I hope she wins in the Olympics!!..She's tough and very fast!!...I hope she do very well!!..
you are one of the reasons that these women are wild as fuck.
I don’t a tenth of talent these young people.
We keep trying to force great people into these dumb ass boxes as if old male olympians ain’t walking around today with tits.
I'm personally more concerned with her running and winning than her appearance and behavior on the field.
I have yet to see anything disgraceful.
I personally may not be a fan of tats, colorful weaves, and what else she sports-- that's her appearance preference.
Let the young lady live out her dreams the way she wants.

Your actually making his point though. fuck shit is fuck shit and she's not the first to do it.
how about if nothing else for the sake of being original.
Hood rats dress as a hood rat does.

keeping it real. i am rooting for her as an american to win.
but i just can't get jiggy with how she presents herself.
she needs some hella media preparation and life guidance.
I'm just as hardcore with black female representation but there's a time to back off and let victory and glory be the only debate.
I'm here for it. REPPING CARTER HIGH!
She got tat's, colored hair and long nails....fuck it this what girls her age look like.....
She's dominating and whooping ass. I like the fact she doesn't look like everyone else or what people would consider to be "traditional"......

Is she cheating? If she isn’t, then those losers to do better. Media training for what? To depress yourself. That’s one thing I never understood about us: if we know cacs are weak and just depressed why do we insist on following them? Maybe they wouldn’t be depressed if they didn’t cheat every single time.
