Quarrie says, Campbell-Brown ‘attacked us’ at meeting

[trackfan22]

I'm happy to know this situation is as simple (and cut and dry) as you make it.

If I can take Quarrie's words to the bank that means that VCB is lying. Because their stories are saying 2 different things. But Quarrie said VCB attacked him and the other coaches. So I guess we can take that to the bank.



Thanks for clarifying that VCB is stretching the truth for me.

Your response is baffling... because based on what i read earlier you referred to quarrie as a tool.. which means you took VCB side...based on what both argued and now your being sarcastic the irony of lifeeeee

The fact DQ whould make a statement essentially stating VCB provaricated and then refuse to answer questions about it is pretty suspect (this after accusing her of attacking them). Does he honestly believe in his right mind that anyone takes him seriously and that is word is final. I for one have no respect for the dude. He certainly isn't a gentleman.

how can u go and say u have lost respect for him..were you there ?? i respect VCB but i really wont go on anyside because its his word against hers...

[John Gold]

Why are you all allowing these three pricks to bait you.They don't have any real love for Jamaican athletes.They are trying to get you to speak ill of your own and are implying that the JAAA gave in to Franno because of his talk about drugs.They seem to be saying he knows something and they gave in to keep him quiet.

Very simple, in an obviously prepared statement he mentions "the athlete’s sterling contribution to her country" and in the very same sentence implies she is a liar. That is a hypocrite and if you want to condone his actions and take his word as gospil that's up to you.

[guruof track]

Fortis you have said Quarrie's word can be taken to the bank. If I were to assume that as the truth, that means he is calling VCB a flat out liar. Quarrie said they notified her that morning, VCB said they notified her an hour and half before the race. Even you say that Quarrie told her in the morning. SO essentially your calling VCB a liar.

Trakfan, obviously someone needs to take VCB side, because it seems as though some of her countrymen think she is a 'liar' and a 'diva'.

Somebody's not telling the truth here. From what I know about VCB, it seems to me that that person is Quarrie.

[Alucard]

Guru & Jpaule there are some who cannot see the forrest for the trees. In one newspaper DQ said (paraphrasing), we did notify her late. Can his supporters please explain?


Also, this has nothing to do with who is best curve runner, this nonsense is being offered not by the Stewart group or the Frazer group, rather by internet junkies. It was about who trained for what and who was injured. Apparently DQ chose to believe Frazer and Stewart's injury were worse than VCB documented list of injuries. I guarantee you the JAAA doctors never looked at Frazer and Stewart. DQ and JAAA made a decision gambling that VCB would be a push-over and would meekly comply, she did not and now here we are with Francis laughing at us all

[Daisy]

Francis laughing at us all

This sums it up quite well.

Guru, you are a soap opera kinda guy and i am a Jamaican who loves VCB and all our 'girls' regardless. VCB most likely made the right decision to be inflexible, given what we saw happen to Muna Lee.
For the final time, although i have not seen DQ for several years, i will personally guarantee that you can take DQ's words to the bank. It will be a great day for Jamaica when our athletes get to know the impeccable character and values of Donald Quarrie, the late Dr. Lennox Miller and Dr. Arthur Wint.
Indeed all you track and field fans would also benefit from knowing about these great Jamaican sprinters outside of their world records and Olympic medals.
VCB wi luv yu, caan dun. ah life.

Quarrie has made two different statement regarding when they broke the news to VCB. Which statement can we take to the bank?

The bolded part strikes me a thinly veiled slight of someone. Not sure who that someone is though. Who are the 'our athletes' you speak of?

[Alucard]

Guru, he will not touch that one!

A third one will probably be coming.

[fortis]

Alucard, since you seh i won't touch Goru's information, I will.
Jamaicans don't back away from anybody.
DQ commented twice. The first was in response to VCB first public comments on the matter. The second was in a radio interview headlinded "DQ refuses to undermine VCB". In this latter interview he stated that everyone had seen his
previous comments and that he was saying nothing more to that. He instead talked about VCB athletic achievements.

You and Guru seem to get caught up in difference/nuance of 'intent' and 'confirmation' i.e. the team was informed in the morning meeting of the coaches/managers intent re the relay running positions, at which time VCB
stated her unchangable preference. Approx 1.5 hrs before the race VCB approached DQ
with 'what's the pposition' at which point re-directed her to relay coach who confirmed the morning 'intent'.
Neither i or anybody in Jamaica is upset with VCB reasons for not taking the
one of the starting positions that she was assigned. Jamaicans are very hip
and they would concur that the best runner to do the anchor in this particular
race would have the closer Kerron Stewart who finished way ahead of VCB in the 100 final and who would have caught and beat SAF if the race was two strides longer.

"Count Alucard" your centuries old wisdom is something the JAAA cannot allow. They will now track you back to Castle Dracula and drive a stake through your heart.
