I'm tired of Shalane Flanagan complaining about how Rita Jeptoo...

here's what you should be tired of: "hey interviewers, I"m tired of you asking shalane about rita jeptoo, in every single interview. please ask less relevant questions, thank you."

so, what you're saying is that you're pissed at shalane for answering the questions that the interviewers are asking her? should she just not answer? would you then call her a prima donna? dude, let it go, and focus your anger where it should have been in the first place. better, yet, just take a chill pill.

Well I never said I was "pissed" or "angry". I said I was "tired".

Like I read her statement and roll my eyes ... I'm not smashing chairs or punching walls over here.

I just think Flanagan is living in a delusional world and actually thinks she should/would have won Boston without Jeptoo. I think it's a slight against the other very talented women in these races who are also very good and were also better than Shalane.

Then go to bed and get mommy to tuck you in, come the morning it'll all seem like a bad dream that you can't really remember anyway. Nite nite.

If it hadn't been Jeptoo it would have been someone else.

I think youll find she agrees with you which is why she said "The possibilities are open and endless for anyone"

if we ever meet, we will fight! I hope to knock your as* out, if not, I will be happy to just attempted knock you out!

She's said this in about fifty interviews since Jeptoo's positive. If you read a bunch of them, it basically sounds like she thinks she could have won the Boston Marathon if Jeptoo hadn't been in the race.

What are the other 49 interview she has said this in?

I only know of this one and the one that was on the homepage.

I agree. Like she would have won anyway. She needs to get over herself....and by the way, it's extremely likely that she's using drugs herself, so she needs to shut up, run her race and quit being so critical of others that are doing the same thing she's doing. She just hasn't gotten caught yet.

Worst gripe of the week

Shalane has the sportsmanship and class of Serena. They are both embarrassing when they lose. Of course, Serena almost never loses these days.

What you should be tired of is Kenyans who cheat. There are plenty of them.

little miss yaks alot. All the Nike dope has made her look like a skeezed out 60 year old Appalachian meth ho. Skelator face.

She was gonna f^ck shit up!!!!! last year, and the year before and the year before that. Then didn't. This year, there is no limit to how much she's gonna f^ck shit up!!!! Yakkety yak yak. How about some real results, not just yakking about f^cking shit up!!!!! ?

she led the field out in 1:09 and therefore everyone pr'd. And Rita Jeptoo smashed everyone with her illegal 2:18. Why shouldn't she talk? Flanagan's got the toughness and ability to push the pace in nearly every race she runs. We have got to respect that. Sure, she gets beaten by dopers.

She should not have taken that "your welcome" shot at Jeptoo last year at the awards.

With what we now know about Jeptoo's doping, yes, she should have.

You can't use hindsight to justify toolish behavior.

Keep in mind that Rita Jeptoo is still the 2014 champion. In the 2015 marathon program given to all runners this weekend she's listed in the records as the 2014 winner and the all-time top woman. They even put a solo picture of her in it next to her record time!

BAA is pathetic that they can't get off their asses and recognize Buzunesh as the real winner of the race. All of the top women have every right to be wicked pissed.

There ain't one shred of evidence that Jeptoo was doped at last year's Boston. We don't know when she started doping any more than we know the date that elfie rupp, radcliffe, mo, flanagan, cain, centro, hasay, rowbury started their doping.
