Asbel Kiprop speaks to BBC: "The truth will come out and it will clear my name." Calls for dopers to be jailed.

LOL.

I have never seen a more blatant piece of lying!

I watched it on the 1:00pm BBC news here in the UK, and he suggests he was giving the testers money for them to buy tea!!!

I'd like to know how expensive tea is in Kenya!?

I hope there aren't people out there who would fall for this!

He looks a little pudgier than normal, no? Wonder if this is it for him competitively.

Plenty who fall for it.

I imagine he's getting pretty strong support back home.

It's pretty normal in Kenya. I've done it several times myself without thinking. "Here's a little something for tea" is a phrase literally every Kenyan with a regular salary has uttered at some point. Hard for westerners to understand, I know. Also, the money wasn't a lot (can't remember the exact amount but it was like enough to buy coffee and and sandwiches or something like that). Don't want to defend him because I don't know how it went down, but really very fishy going ons around this case. I almost wish he doped because I can't fathom the kind of evil that would so cold-heartedly frame an athlete like this ruining his entire legacy.

Asbel has put on weight and looks somewhat pudgy by his standards. This is it. It's over for him. But if you ask my opinion, he sounds sincere and extremely hurt by what's happened. I'd imagine he's being ostracised and that can't be good.

since its not getting any fan fare on the other thread...hey brojos what do you think of this? sure sure slap kiprop on the wrist.

i hope the government really presses rotich and he spills beans!!! i mean a hospital for the top tier athletes to dope at!

sounds like the medical facility lance built for himself on the nike campus.

cant wait to see the black page of devastation if rotich spills beans!

See? Hook, line and sinker.

It doesn't matter how ridiculous the lie sounds for people who are able to think rationally, even at a fairly basic level. There are still going to be plenty of 'Kenianos' that slurp up the pathetic lies so they can keep believing the charade that is a clean sport and a clean East Africa.

I merely gave my opinion based on his demeanour in the interview and offered my opinion on a practice that is culturally acceptable in Kenya but unheard of in western countries. That's all. Let this sink in. Guilty or not, there will be no drop off in Kenyan performances or shortage of replacements. There will be plenty of more Kenyans for you to hate on for the next generation or, at least, McDonalds becomes a staple in Kenya.

Of course it's. With epo being just a hundred bucks in the backroom, we all know it's common practice in Kenya.

He has some balls.

Just like was mentioned earlier, his demeanour in the interview was very similar to every other cheat in history. 'Oooh, poor me, there must be some mistake....money for tea....Western conspiracy....etc'.

I know you're right about Kenya, it's not like anything real is being done about the rampant cheating. While it's profitable for the Rosas and Canovas of the world, there will be dope cheating/age cheating/gender cheating Africans dominating races.

El K. -I don't think it is over for Asbel yet.

Asbel states he will be vindicated soon.

The man is 'on trial' at this time, for want of better words, but there is still no conclusive evidence to convict the genial policeman, who has always passed all tests for the past 10 years with flying colors.

I guess I am in a minority of posters here who think a 'not guilty' verdict should result.

This is heart breaking for Asbel. One feels compassion for the former 'stick man', now a slightly more rotund version.

May the wheels of justice do their job soon, and we will see the top draw in track, Asbel, in action again. He does not deserve a lynch mob.

yeah until rotich spills beans and the DOPE hospital gives up all the goodies...kiprop wont be the only one we say bye bye too

how brutal would it be if it turns out eliud was "treated" there? haha i cant wait!!! i hope its DEVESTATING

rojo it simple, dont know how you ivy leagues cant grasp this.

he is hoping and betting on this angle

"i was bribed, never tested positive, it was them, they sabotaged me cause i didnt pay enough"

but his problem is now he is saying he payed them out of generosity. like canova and his stance on EPO and how it keeps changing, kiprop keeps changing his story.

problems he will run into

-why is he paying everytime, and on a friend level with the tester?

-why is the tester informing him days in advance?

-why is he saying he always pays, but then says he was bribed, then says he was paying cause its the culture to be generous...

problems that will arise for kiprop now that rotich is on trial

-how much rotich gives up to the authorites

-how much the hospital gives up to the authorities

There are 3 options:

1 Kiprop is a lyar and antidoping in Kenya is ok.

2 Kiprop is telling the truth and antidoping Kenya is corrupt.

3 Kiprop is a lyar and antidoping Kenya is corrupt.

Many will fall for it. ?

Let's re-visit this in a few years. Reminds me of this, however:

Read the sample from Chapter 1:

https://www.amazon.com/Positively-False-Real-Story-France/dp/1416961038

Enough to buy tea, but not quite enough to bribe a drug testing official into urinating into the pot.

Don't need to wish he doped, he doped.
