Fine, no one has a problem with that. Who said a black person never cheated?? NO ONE. You want me to make a list of whites who have cheated??? It would be a looooong list. Should I start with the world of bicycling? Making that sport's list of cheaters alone would keep me busy for a day or so.
Look, my point was: I found it ironic that the typical white racist who hates blacks will always say about black people in general: 'blacks play the victim, and always complain that the white man cheats him out of his due, and will always complain that the deck is stacked against the black man, and the black man will always play the race card, and will always complain and instead of just working hard to get ahead.' But now....now, that the black man is better at something (running...in every damn event out there), this same white racist acts like the supposed black person he complains about: he whines that there is a conspiracy to keep the white runner down, that the black man gets an advantage that the white man doesn't (is allowed to use drugs while the powers that be look the other way), and that the white man is told he is not good enough by society, so he doesn't try. In short, he whines and complains and makes excuses and lies about why "his people" are not more successful at something, just like the whining bitches he supposedly looks down on. HYP O CRITE.
I just spoke the truth and you know it. And for the record, Mottram probably agrees with me 100%. He doesn't want BS excuses of any kind, and especially ones that have no chance of being true (such as: all the top africans are on EPO, while no elite whites are).

White, black, green or blue, Mottram gives a great interview. Does Bekele even speak ANY English? Language barriers, combined with what seems to be a strong thread of public humility amongst African runners unfortunately leads to dead PR. Mottram adds the needed spice.

If Dibaba could speak english and cursed in some foreign accent, I'd marry her.
