Is Dacres the first Jamaican on this podium?

First ever Jamaican discus medalist at a global championship; second Jamaican thrower medalist (O'Dayne Richards got bronze in the shot put in 2015).

NBC showed 1 throw of the entire competition......and at least 30 mins of themselves talking in the booth

I gave up watching the sporadic, jumbled, talk heavy NBC feed and stuck with NBC Gold.. the announcers talk funny but I am beginning to understand them .. they do ok.

Yeah, it would have been nice to see as much of the throws as we did of the wHT.

But, I guess with no American going for a (gold) medal...

i'm too cheap unfortunately to pay more for Gold. However because i couldn't start watching until 6pm last night, i stayed off the internet and watched on demand fast-forwarding through the hours of nonsense spoiler-free
