She cheated and got caught. I'd have some respect for her if she just admitted it and even more if she detailed how the team did it like so many pro cyclists did.

This is a confession from Shelby, and as close as she will likely come to a full confession until she sees that maybe she can make money from a full mea culpa.

Somebody actually read the article. I'm semi-amazed at that around here.
The Washington Post is phenomenal and in particular has always been known for continuing to ask questions. That practice lends to great quotes, even if you have to look for them instead of offering the same rant for the 5000th consecutive day.
This was an article that did not need to be written. We've heard it all before. Sadly, I have no doubt that many of the Washington Post readers will fall for her side.
I was gonna say this. How many Shelby’s side of the story pieces are we going to end up with? I wonder if the AIU will ever get fed up and plant suspicious RTP data if they have it.
By now it should be clear she's slow-playing this - keeping her name out there with occasional woe-is-me drivel like this, beer miles, and etc... all with only one real purpose - to prevent the public from completely forgetting her and moving on. Hate to say it, but it seems to be working.

Dude, I’m a Democrat and I’ll even admit that the Washington Post has gotten embarrassingly bad. They’re all, and I mean ALL, about access journalism. This article was a poorly researched puff piece that reeks of some higher up at Nike or wherever promoting this in exchange for giving this writer some kind of bigger scoop later. That’s it.
Shelby is guilty AF, and you don’t have to know much about professional running or PEDs to easily see that.

Admit is one thing. No one has dared to bring the entire empire to their knees. Recall, the real Detective Serpico was shot in the face. Retired Detective Serpico, still alive swears to this day fellow N.Y.P.D. officers set him up to be shot in the face. Nike are not less powerful than N.Y.P.D.

What's the obsession in the US media with giving Houlihan so much attention + benefit of the doubt? She's not even ever made an impact on the world stage.

She was so close to those major successes, and doing it the right way. That's what makes this whole situation so frustrating.

Nice selective editing. Here’s the full passage:
She has processed her ban in nonlinear fashion. She grapples with complex feelings. Guilt gnaws at her, and she has trouble identifying why.
“Because I’m serving the consequences for it, I’m also getting the emotions,” Houlihan said. “I feel embarrassed, and I’m feeling ashamed, and all of these different emotions for having to serve a ban, even though I didn’t do anything. So that’s been really hard to navigate and work through.”

She’s still the most talked about runner here. For good reason: deep down everyone knows she’s a victim of a flawed system that’s not designed to protect the innocent.
