Americans are the most honest people in the world, just ask Marion Jones, Regina Jacobs and Lance Armstrong. The Morrocans are expendable, just like Canadians (Ben Johnson).

They beat the fair haired lads and lassies from the Commonwealth! The same as those darned Russians and Chinese.

There problem was that a bunch of them got caught, even though nobody was trying too hard to catch them.
Once a bunch go down, the IAAF may as well carry on catching a few more and use them as a 'look, our anti-doping strategy is awesome, we just busted another nasty Moroccan - why can't they be like those incapable of wrongdoing and ever smiley East Africans?'

Interesting. The preogression certainly doesn't show the dramatic progression known to be the Letsrun sine qua non of doping.
Are you being serious? He has no history at all before age 28 (2008) where he runs 13:36/27:34 and some similar road times and then the next year he runs 2:10, and then drops a 2:08, which is in line with the 27:34 but achieved after only 2 yrs at a high level. It indicates that he was doping from the start. Or at least as early as he was getting any internationally notable results.
The discontinuity in the progression that you usually see is in 2006 and 2007 when he went from an unknown with no significant marks to a 13:36/27:34 and 28:26r performer.
Also, there doesn't need to be any essential element for us to malign him, he tested positive.

That's right, we can just do it for no reason at all!
Trying to argue with an old, impaired person on a message board, is like trying to argue with your aging parents.
I like to use this one:
Arguing with _____ is like playing chess against a pigeon. No matter how soundly you're defeating the pigeon, it will invariably and predictably knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it won.
This guy just helped his French club team at the Ekiden National champs in front of my club team. Do you have any official proof of this guy getting caught ?
I meant,(He helped his team winning the ekiden national champs )
Maghreb and muslim runners are often unfairly targeted, with more frequent tests and surprise tests.
Many of these Maghreb runners come from modest economic backgrounds and are often manipulated by their foreign coaches and/or managers.
Another point - people are surprised he emerged so late on the running scene. This is nothing new in Maghreb countries, or Kenya for that matter. These guys are often naturally fit, and many had a background in soccer, so they already have very developed aerobic bases.
Ghost in Saudi,
, apply today.
Ok , blame Lance for this as well. Wonder why the drug enforcement camp has done nothing to pursue track and field with the veracity it did Lance ?
Balco was just the tip of the iceberg in the running world.

As I mentioned, see the most recent issue of Race Results Weekly.
you're in idiot!!! if they were clean why would it matter how often they are tested!!!! They are dirty, from impoverished countries, and have a great deal to gain by winning 5k, 10k, 15k, etc.... a year in races....their agent is not sticking a needle in their arm, legs or buttocks..they make the choice to cheat on their own....get a clue...
J.R. and ghost are the two biggest pro druggie trolls in the weboshere. They are team tagging this thread like a couple of oily, cohabitating pro wrestlers, who, by the way, are also unfairly "profiled" for PED use by their standards. You are now properly informed. Post accordingly.

They've never done so without drugs.
Ever seen a picture of Frank Shorter losing to a Kenyan or Epo-thian? There aren't any --- cause it never happened....

Testing lowers the blood volume, compromises the immune system, and it's possible that substances are being injected with the testing.
