Props to Asbel Kiprop for REFUSING to run fast in the Bowerman Mile. Stick it to the swoosh.

Whatchagonnado baby? He's Asbel MF Kiprop. Poor fierce Blankenship near DFL behind a jogging Kiprop. Who else ya got OTC? Centro? LMAO you suck Nike, cheat cheat cheat and you still lose every single time. Rupp already relegated to marathon...

You point fingers at the Russians, get all their '08 samples retested all the while your FILTHY US sprint corps skates by unscathed... you're not fooling anyone... also your track sucks and is no place for a tier 1 event like WC and you know it. You can't even pay for it your own billionaire self, you have to rip off the Oregon taxpayers. You should be run out of America and go live in Vietnam and eat freaking rice every day.
