Cuz if you guys think out of the dozens of Kenyans and Ethiopians who were faster that there wasn't ONE who was clean, well... you truly are delusional.
Although most of this thread is a bit tongue in cheek, it's not completely implausible that dozens of doped up Kenyans and Ethiopians could have ran faster than the fastest white non African.
If there are hundreds of Africans capable of running 13:15, then it's clearly plausible that dozens of those over the last 20 years have doped up to run under 12:55.
Especially if there is a doping culture amongst distance athletes there, with little or no testing, as compared to no doping culture elsewhere, and very strict and regular testing (for elites).
It's a bit like a snowflake saying 'if you guys think all the dozens of religious extremists who have blown themselves up over the last 5 years were Muslim, and there wasn't one Buddhist who did so, well...you are truly delusional.'

A cuban is clean? He's from a Communist country and athletes doping there is more than 99% likely.

Hmmm, sorry to disappoint, but it's called being proud of your heritage. I do think, however, that some of the aging white suburban hobby joggers who get so upset at the idea that Kenyan young bucks do not actually represent a genetic master race, are indulging in something a bit sexual, a bit of white cuckold fantasy, and definately a bit...ewww.
Honestly, this board sometimes ...
Agreed, dude. Agreed.
I might stop coming to this message board after this thread. The f-into bigotry on here is insane. Everyone’s living in the past here.

Speaking of Coe and Ovett; They benefitted massively from the Kenyan boycotts of two consecutive Olympics (Montreal 1976 & Moscow 1980) which set the country's athletics programme back a decade. By the time of their return in Los Angeles 1984, they were a pale shadow of the teams led by Kip Keino in 1968 and 1972 that turned the world to altitude training in order to compete, and could only muster one gold medal in the steeple. Coe and Ovett were extremely lucky there were no Kenyans in Moscow.
Explain where Coe & Ovett got in Montreal?
Which Kenyan would have beaten Juantorena? None.
Which Kenyan would have beaten Walker? None.
Which Kenyan would have beaten Coe & Ovett in Moscow? None. Only Scott, Walker and Wessinghage posed a threat over 1500m.
Why was altitude suddenly a non-factor again between 1975-1992?
Haha, what a shocker - the racist knuckle-dragger is too dull to form a sensible analogy.
The percentage of people faster than Iwan Thomas that were dirty, or the percentage of people faster than Mottram that were dirty, or the percentage of record holders after Abrahams and Liddell that were dirty......these don't approach the high percentage of religious suicide bombings by Muslims/total religious suicide bombings.
So, yes, you are truly delusional.

Yes, that's what I meant. That he likely wasn't clean, or at least not 'very likely clean'.
Is this the thread where we just list a bunch of also-ran white guys?

You are the biggest racist on this board. However, in our current warped culture, it's o.k. for blacks to openly proclaim superiority over whites, and it's considered racist for a white to deny it.
As Subway said, Coe and Ovett didn't benefit from any Kenyan boycott. Both Ereng and Rono, however, were lucky that Coe was effectively banned from Seoul by his own athletics board for being seen as 'privilaged white'.
Well, at least Coe probably had a better chance of winning in Seoul if he had went than any Kenyan would have had in 76 or 80.
I like certain Kenyan runners, but at the end of the day, Kenyans are successful largely because they enjoy a huge advantage of being born at altitude, being useless at any other sport, and having access to unlimited EPO with little or no testing.
Kenya chose to boycott Moscow and LA. Stop blaming whitey for everything. African cheating has put back distance running in Europe and the USA half a century.
*Montreal and Moscow
You aren't denying that blacks are superior over whites - you are saying that none of them have had clean performances. And yes, that is racist.

Wrong. People can argue that whites dominate nobel prize lists or Harvard classes because of 'white privilage' rather than higher IQ, and it's not seen as racist. Similarly, I should be able to argue that recent domination of distance running by Africans is due to black privilage rather than black genetic superiority. Namely, the privilage of being subjected to far less rigorous testing.

Your straw man argument does not make the case that your view is anything less than racist. Believing all blacks that have run faster than the fastest white person (or, fastest white person that isn't from America) must all be cheating is the very definition of racism.

It's no more racist than being of the opinion that we should withhold belief regarding Soviet Bloc records from the 70s and 80s (which most people here do have that opinion).
And why are you making this stuff up about me being 'racist' towards white Americans? And even if I was, wouldn't it show I wasn't being racist towards blacks, but rather suspecting that both America and Africa suffer from doping cultures (which I don't, I merely suggested Alan Webb might be a little suspicious given his bulk, and his progression - or lack of progression). Given that there have only been a handful of successful white distance runners in the last couple of decades, and I suspect at least one of them of not being clean, maybe I'm just not racist, but simply realistic about modern athletics?
What are you talking about you moron? I'm being accused of racism for the supposedly absurd belief that eveybody faster than Iwan Thomas was doping (and I don't actually, I was clearly trolling). Yet virtually ever suicide bombing (and there have been literally hundreds) has been carried out by radical Muslims. You're assuming that not every runner faster than Thomas is dirty. The point is I'm saying that if those 50 faster than Thomas are from a different culture in which doping is possible, then it's no more absurd to believe it might in fact be the case, as it is to believe that every suicide bomber is a Muslim (and we happen to know that this is the case - because of factors within modern Islam). It's a perfectly fair analogy.
Personally I think that, yes, it's probable an African has run faster clean than Craig Mottram.
However, it's still the case that he is the most likely clean world record holder.
That's because he comes from a culture in which doping is more frowned upon and where elite athletes are tested far more frequently.
Saying which African is clean is like drawing lots. It's pure guesswork.
Another awful analogy that shouldn't surprise me. It is absolutely more racist, because you are applying it to blacks of all countries, not just ones of a country with state-sponsored doping programs similar to the Soviet Bloc. Do you see the difference? Probably not, because many racists are dense.
In addition to being racist who is bad at analogies, you also don't believe white Americans are clean, for whatever I don't care because it is a laughable assumption for you to think the States are rife with doping culture dating back 90 years. Your lists of last clean record holders and fastest clean guys ever mean that you think at least the following white Americans were/are dirty:
Charlie Paddock
Harold Davis
Bobby Marrow
Thane Baker
Emerson Spencer
Ben Eastman
Bill Carr
Grover Klemmer
Mike Larrabee
Andrew Rock
Jeremy Wariner
Alan Webb
Chris Solinsky
So yeah, it wasn't "suspecting at least one of them not being clean" and "just being realistic about modern athletics". It was targeted exclusion - so you might as well own up to it.
