Why all the hate for Farah?

He is a bit of an arse to be fair.

In 2012 he started doing the mo bot on the finishing straight of the national 1500m, total disrespect for the rest of the field.

Watch videos of him running in his mid 20's. He was a nobody. Then suddenly....

Most of us know what happened.

I don't buy that. Ovett was far worse at that sort of thing and everyone lapped it up including me.

Saw he had the whole of Cardiff doing the Mobot yesterday at a pre race thing. Maybe this

Envy.

Because that's what champions do.

Ovett has nothing to do with it you ignoramus. We are talking about Mo and his actions.

Yup!

I have never liked that.

i have just written something about that in another thread.......and that was before I saw your post.

He looked small.

I am smiling.

We denied him the joy of victory in Wales.

He's a sit-and-kick'er; a wimp who refuses to push the pace.

a lot of athletes/sports people do a lot worse in regard to not showing others respect, I'm not buying that tbh, I think its the thought that he is doping and not getting caught that has people up in arms about him, what about the rest of them if that's the case...I don't know if he's doping or not and I would hope he's not but i'm not a hater anyway.

Great race today by kamwiorr, unreal show of guts to do what he did after the fall he had...is he doping? nobody knows...the Kenyans are notoriously poor at testing, god knows what these fellas are at back home!

And maybe even a Muslim.

This is Letsrun.

He is a Somalian

Oh wait . . . he is a Brit

Oh wait . . . he is an Oregonian

Oh wait . . . he is an Ethiopian

Oh wait . . . does he have any national loyalties at all? I mean besides Mo Money?

Exactly, you do not know. We can say that all of them are on the sauce, but we don't know for sure. What I do know for sure is that he did do the mo bot down the finishing straight of the national 1500m and in that instance lost a lot of respect in England.

Most of us know what happened.

1) NOP

2) shady behavior

3) aberrant progression

4) slows races down instead of going for it

5) cheats on wife

How could anyone like him (British fanboys excepted)? Mediocre runner becomes world beater when hooks up with shady coach. Overwhelming circumstantial evidence of PED usage.

Because he is successful: Envy.

6) Sleeps through WADA visits to his home

7) hangs out with convicted dopers

8) is too much of a puss to champ. race his signature distance: 1500m

9) has only time trial'd an indoor 2-mile

10) sure gets sick a lot; faints often

11) disingenuous personality

He's as doped as Bolt but squirrelly instead of cool, mon
