The article was initially entiteld, "Zane Robertston!!!!" but we changed it to make it more descriptive. Here is our article on his bust and fake excuses (he said he went to a hospital for a COvid-19 vaccine but they gave him EPO instead) which points out that in 2016 he expressed frutation at the amount of doping in the sport:
"The rate of (Kenyan) doping positives is off the charts; thirty athletes have been suspended during 2022 alone."
"Imagine if 30 Canadian, British, Australian, or American athletes were suspended in a 10-month stretch. For many countries, the athletics program would be decimated. Currently, there are approximately 70 athletes from Kenya serving suspensions for reasons related to anti-doping."
You are still unable to respond to this. It's easy to see why. But keep deflecting to a world that no longer exists, before 1980, so you can avoid an embarrassing present.
I know that there were many positives from Kenya in the last year. What is your point?

Doping is so rampant in Kenya that none of its performances can be trusted to be clean. That includes many of its historical performances, such as in the '70's, when doping was also available.

Kenyans doped more successful in the 70s than the rest? Better doping in Kenya than in the GDR? Or in Russia? In the USA? In West Germany? In Australia? In Romania? In Bulgaria? In the UK? In Italy?
I thought the GDR has had the most advanced doping program - but Kenya was ahead?
Embarrassing for NZ -- not our greatest export. Yet they never really fitted the humble Kiwi persona; there was some hubris in there. You do have to admire the "full send" move to E-Africa, but it definitely exposes you when things start not going to plan.

The fact is that his doping destination of choice was Kenya. Kipruto's suspension is just another example of why that was so.

I have not argued your straw man that Kenya doped more than the E Germans in the '70's. I have suggested that given the sheer prevalence of Kenyan doping today it is a reasonable inference that they also doped earlier in their history. But that is a conclusion you refuse to accept and you instead deflect to the irrelevant issue of which country doped the most in the '70's. That isn't the question. And it does not show that Kenyans weren't doping in the '60's and '70's. But deflection is what deniers and liars do.
Deflection is what you have been doing here for months. Deflecting from Zane Robertson's suspension, and turning this into a Kenya doping thread.
So which one are you? A denier or a liar?
You haven't noticed the posters here who cannot stop talking about Kenyan "success" in the old days and trying to minimize Kenyan doping in a thread about yet another athlete caught doping in Kenya. But this is old news. There's someone new all the time. Ronex Kipruto. Try to keep up.
