how genius, how did I prove you're point?
Anyone one else find the mis-use of "you're" in this particular faux argument hilariously ironic?
But then part of me is sad to think that these people get to vote (or at least will when they are old enough).
The haters on here are probably Cragg, Robison, or any of the other great runners who couldn't keep up with Jorge at Terre Haute! Not even Boaz could keep up!
I used to think stick was a horrible troll, but now I see he's actually pretty good he strung you guys along and turned a 7 post thread into a 65 post thread. Great work stick!
The problem with the Torres Twins is that they were never very marketable as US athletes because they are not white. If you are not white American, you have to either win Boston or come very close or be friggin Bernard Lagat to get any decent respect and support as a US distance runner. In a couple years, there will be a "Whatever happened to Desiree Davila thread?" and trollers will be like "Davila who?"
BS. Jorge had a storied and respectable career and was revered by many. He was all over the headlines during that horrendous car crash that killed his old coach I think and seriously injured his mother (as I recall it). His brother was good but never up to the level of his brother.
Hopefully Jorge will be able to focus on some marathons. He's still young enough. But if he's done, well, good for him.
He's on the run with Oscar Ponce.

Nice I see what you did there. Play the race card because the race card trumps all. The questioning of Torre has nothing to do with race and everything to do with his credentials. Next time come up with a better logic and don't play the race card. You must be a liberal.
I went to HS in Illinois. I remember watching Jorge dominate in XC. He was fun to watch. I've followed his entire career, definitely one of my favorite runners of all-time. And he seems like a great guy.
I heard he was injured. Hopefully he bounces back and competes again soon!

Whats with all the hate towards JT? Do you pathetic losers hate every American runner? Or is it because he is Hispanic? Can any American runner be compared to Kenenisa Bekele? On another note, yeah he probably eats tacos, your mom's taco.
So saying he eats a taco is racist? You eat hot dogs is that racist too?
Lol that's not racist you sensitive librul. Mexicans like tacos!!! Geeze
The Torres apologists are really getting lame

Don't worry bozo, you to are part of the 150 track and field/ Cross country fans that America has! SO go back into your room and pump it to your poster of Galen Rupp, and come back to the site as one happy camper.
Actually, I pump it to the image of Alberto pumping my ass in all his hairy-chested glory

The Torres antagonist have been quieted.
NO WE HAVNE'T. I still don't who this Jorge Torres guy is. He sounds like a baseball player. Is he related to yankee catcher Jorge Posada. Perhaps he is related to former yankee manager Joe Torre. It makes sense now he's a New York Yankee backup 2nd baseman. Okay in that case why did you guys say something?

Have you ever written a post that doesn't have words omitted, spelling errors, grammar errors, and punctuation omitted?
This one had all of those and I have never seen you put two sentences together that meant anything.

HAVNE'T has 3 errors.
1. Cap lock
2. N is interspersed with E
3. E is interspersed with N
*2 & 3 places the apostrophe in the wrong alpha sequence.
yankee = Yankee
? mark at end of sentence ending with Posada.
backup = back up
Son you'd do well to get Hooked on Phonics. Don't you realize your parents are going to eventually throw you out of their basement by the time you are 30? You should be worried about living your life with such a profound level of illiteracy.
Hey svit head I won't back down just because you flaming liberals play the race card. I SAID nuttin racist geeeeze!!
Hey stupid liberal it's not racist. He probably likes tacos. You should apply for a job with CNN

No you stupid liberal I offered a Mexican a taco and it's not racist
Your pretty dumb
