The Jamaican two man bobsled team is heading to Sochi!!
Where did they practice, Canada ?
I am hoping they strike a win for Jamaica, and us old folks.
I would love for them to take me on a ride !!!!!
ONE LOVE !!

Fundraising for the bobsled team:

According to the report on NBC they need to raise $80k U.S. to fund the team trip to Sochi. Being the winter Olympic darlings, I know many Americans are donating. I know bobsledding is an obscure sport in Jamaica and doesn't have the sex appeal of Usain Bolt but Jamaicans should support their team the best they can . After all, "the best sprinters make the best bobsledders".
They did it!
Money has been raised!
