That was a fabulous snub at 5:14.

However, Rowbury's finish was totally retarded. If she hadn't done the stupid gymnastics to reach in front of Muir, she would have run faster, won by a greater margin, wouldn't have tripped, and wouldn't have caused several others to fall.

She should have been DQ'd for that move.

Note to Shannon, stop the stupid trying to block out other runners, and just run.

I didn't see a snub. What happened? Who snubbed who?

Simpson and Rowbury don't spend a lot of time chatting. In fact, it's so short, you might have missed it.

The "Congrats" starts at 5:15. It's pretty much over by 5:16.

Too bad Rowbury's skipping the 5th Avenue Mile. It'd be fun to see them fight it out for 2nd behind Muir.

There will be rejoicing in the streets of Frisco tonight, believe you me!

Rowbury's 2012 Olympic medal will come after they clean out the dirty athletes that cheated their way in front of her.

What a joke of a race. Dirty as hell + a fall.

She crossrf the line 6th but they've already removed one Turk from gold. The 2nd Turk has been charged but not removed and then you have Tomashova who was previously busted but I've rad nothing about her in terms of 2012. And I'm not even counting Aregawi as what she was taking was legal at the time.

I don't know how I feel about removing 3 medallists and then awarding it after that. At some point, the race just needs to be too dirty for medals. I mean people race differently based on place and what not.

If you don't count Aregawi then Simpson is back to back world champion.

she is lucky

ran great today , but nothing to love about her

simpson had the Olympic glory

she can have this

Simpson reaches for Rowbury and Rowbury shrugs off her hand and keeps going.

Really, the only thing that matters is that Sompson goes home with an Olympic medal. Nothing else matters this year. I'm a fan of both, if that matters.

This site is hilarious. Muir runs 3:55, faster than both the US girls and everyone cries 'Doper'. A few days later and Rowbury runs within a couple of seconds of Muir's time and beats Muir as well. And not a hint from anyone suggesting she dopes.

If you beat a 3:55 runner in a similar time then it suggests you're almost as good as. The double standards on this site are quite staggering.

I actually think both are clean and I have no reason to suspect either. But I just wanted to point out the blatant bias against anyone not American, and in particular British, who dares run as fast or faster than USA's best.

Are you stupid?

Posters on this site accuse the entirety of the NOP (Rowbury included) of doping every other day.

That's because Muir "must be off the juice" now.

Yeah exactly the reasoning you use when you say Rupp isn't for real bc he doesn't win Diamond League races. Hypocrites.

Shannon is sooo beautiful. And so smart.She looks very smooth in this race! Her stride has really opened up. Muir's cadence looked about twice as fast as Shannon's while they were moving the same speed.

Why does this matter if Muir is a faster athlete?

What model Nike shoe did Jenny munch?

Muir lost to Rowbury, dude.

Who cares about a participation medal? If you have a bronze one, you are still a loser.

Shannon WON this race.

Was Muir using a different style when she did 3:55? Dude.

Rupp doesn't win ANY major races. Period. Never has, never will.
