How many more proven drug cheats does Salazar have to coach before OTC defenders become clueless apologists?

Great Reply! Fair is fair, unfair is unfair, and in these cases likely cheating, serial cheating...year after frickin year.
We're going to give them a pass because they are poor, live in dirt floor huts, and are black?
Sport governance, should be just that.
Perhaps if we start a email campaign with evidence/records, press paper trails such as this, to the IAAF... We might get lucky and get an investigation.
Maybe we can get Semenya's slimy law firm to threaten a class action suit against he IAAF for fraud...and force them to force the Kenyan federation to work harder to clean up their act.
...
BTW, if 90% of their athletes are actually listed as born in December... yikes.
Please, people, are you crazy? Do you really think that we would listen to you? Look, people in Kenya and Ethiopia are poor, they must support so many! This is why we must simply forgive them such details like doping oR false ages. They don't consider it as cheating, after all, because their are basically clueless, innocent kids.
If you want to complain, complain about Moroccans or Algerians. These are the bad guys in Africa!
Maybe he was 14 when he competed in NTN and 16 was just as typo. Ever thought of that genius.
I just e-mailed IAAF, bringing up various points in this thread, I suggest others do the same.

It was not a typo as he claimed to have run 13:52 the summer before. If he had claimed to have just turned 14 the week before, it would have big news to have won NTN open.

Definitely, I mean tons of kids run 13:52 when they're 13, it's no big deal. Oh, wait a second, no, that's right, you're completely retarded.
One of the most classic Kenyan age cheat stories is John Yego who is now known as Belal Mansoor Ali.
Dude ran the Kenyan 800m trials in 2000 nearly making the team as (then) a 19 year old.
No issues there, except he popped up 5 years later at the World Youth champs (thats under 18, not under 20) as Ali where he ran 3.36.98 from the front to win the final.
Good stuff.
