I'll just provide a short summary of what this blog has to say so nobody else has to waste 10 minutes of their lives reading it. 10% - whining about how he misses Pre and wishes more runners can be like him 10% - bashing Galen Rupp 10% - bashing Alberto Salazar and the Nike-Oregon Project 40% - complaining over and over about Nike 10% - complaining repeatedly about the USATF 5% - complimenting Evan Jager 5% - whining about Eugene 10% - venting frustrations about the USATF and blindly screaming about how T&F is a dirty sport Anyways, this was most certainly written by a Letsrun poster, so if you go skimming these message boards once in a while, you'll basically see the exact same things. |

Seyta, you seemed to miss the tribute to, and parody of, Dr.Hunter S. Thompson. I think the writer is targeting an informed literary as well as running audience. |

godawful. should be castrated for posting such a dreadful rip-off of the good dr.'s style. wtf is wrong with kids these days? |

There is nothing remotely related to Thompson's writing in this blog excluding the name of the work. Using the words "Fear and Loathing" does not automatically make it a successful parody or tribute. |

I remember that guy once called OAR "cheesy and adolescent". Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! |

I have to agree, This really didnt seem at all like something Hunter would write |

I hope to hell this joke for a writer was not paid for his nonsense. Pre definitely would NOT APPROVE of this written trash. |

A for effort. He can write better though. |

"10% - whining about how he misses Pre and wishes more runners can be like him "10% - bashing Galen Rupp" 20-30 years from now the bashers who are still alive will be going on about how they miss Rupp and wishing more of the current runners were like him. |
