World's fastest man Christian Coleman faces potential whereabouts failure ban for 3 missed drug tests

So, as soon as someone pulls out of a meet, you think its drugs? smh that's the state of our sport now? sad

More so that no substantial explanation was given for his withdrawal, but yes, I would agree it is a sad state of affairs when distance runners are testing positive for Nandrolone and discus throwers are testing positive for EPO.

The Sydney quote was put up in response to an earlier claim that Sidney is posting as usual so it can’t be her. While I don’t think you can use that post to surmise that Sidney is the one, I also don’t think you can look at that post and think it is definitely not her because she is posting as usual.

At the end of the day, Sidney put up a weird post that is intentionally cryptic and given the rumors of the day is going to absolutely make people suspicious. Hopefully it is lesson learned. If you don’t want people drawing false conclusions about you, don’t put up indecipherable comments about yourself in an attempt to be mysterious and cool.

If I had to bet money on it, either a athlete from NOP or BTC.

Then I suppose it's a good thing you don't have to bet any money . . . at least good for you.

There were rumors about two stars but I'm confident it's only about one. If it's about two, I'm going to shut the site down for at least a 24 hour period.

Get ready to shut site down, as depending on what you call a star. Rumor has it as 3. 2 biggies and 1 US champ finalist (been on relay teams, not sure if individual Q).

Grape vine says it is Missed tests and TUE issues with the biggies. no news on 3rd.

Not training partners either.

I would bet she does know the rumors. They weren't started on letsrun.

You are right. Likely she is not. I would suspect the over dramatic self-absorbed quotes will continue.

yeah........................ and what about the rest

THE base dope for many is THE sPeed peptide .......IGF-1 lr3 .

wake me up when do something about that as been over ten years now ,

made many stars, yamicans , mo and many more in anglo-us sphere especially .

and in same time space everybody knew of epo and wasnt in information age ,

so whats happening . can test for but just silence and apathy .

the brits are beyond dirty , during that time when started to test outside of events etc in 1990's

pretty sure any internal testers were bought and paid for and as result got likes of sally gunnell and backley etc winning .

You now acknowledge that 3 of the 9 did not test positive. Why do you say blatantly untrue things? Do you think that helps your case? Do you think no one will notice? Your credibility is trash.

Are those tears I see pooling behind your rose-tinted glasses?

Where would we be without fact-checkers like you who willfully ignore the forest for the trees?

We'd be in the same place we currently are - a world full of intellectually dishonest liars.

Am I the only one that sees this entire thread as irresponsible?

Sha'Carrie Richardson

oregon project or the norway crowd

if think they are clean then lost.

untested/undectable epo and similarly this new undecteable steroid that afew sprinters in us have hands on now

is one thing dealing with and only in hands of select few due to how specialised

but testing a base dope like speed peptide used by many would take away alot from performance of all .

remember all forms of molecule similar to epo and steroids can be tested for , just wont .

not an issue of cost , as if run fast then get tested properly , simple .

oh but would it be end of fast times . yes so what .

think the japanese sprinters are clean not remotely , did national long jump record not just go .

why did take american coach in early 2000's state that china will have top sprinters within decade

what did he know that others did'nt .

at time , people would say shut up . then their was the speed peptide .

I'm guessing Gatlin or Coleman. I'll be legitimately bummed if it is Lyles or Norman. I'll be happy if it is Gatlin. No other US men's sprinter would mean much either way for me.

If it's a female......I don't know because they haven't looked that stellar. Felix or Syd would be a shock.

I don't think its Gatlin because how Massive of news would it be if someone who has served two doping suspensions and repeatedly went back to work with his shady/banned coach tested positive. If it was Gatlin it would be about time.

I have no idea who it is but if its any of the young rising stars I'll be very bummed. The only thing I will say is how many big-name Nike stars have been busted. They have a way of keeping their own safe. I believe Gatlin was Nike when he was busted but can't remember. But I feel like by proportion of athletes they sponsor to the proportion that get busted other shoe companies have worse odds.

My first reaction was yes, let the news play out and comment on it afterwards, especially when details aren't necessarily public yet.

But rumors are circulating with or without the LetsRun boards and Rojo is simply letting us in on them. At this point it doesn't really matter, especially since we're the ones doing the speculation, not anyone important.

Just like everyone else, I've had the misfortune of reading this conversation between you and bridgey.

Like many others are thinking, I'll make one thing clear:

You are an ass.

Why shut the place down? It's like shutting down an ice cream parlor in the middle of summer.
