Nadal shows doping at the top of tennis

There is no evidence you are good or successful at anything. Yet you think you have the correct opinion on everything.

That's bragging.

That only shows your inability to follow an argument. But we know that already.

I followed it right where you took it off the rails.

"You don't believe me when I tell you Nadal is doping so you're dumb, unsuccessful and everyone want to you dead".

Convincing if that's how you typically communicate in an argument. I guess.

Maybe that's a cultural thing where you're from.

As I said, you can't follow an argument. You've just shown it again. You're not even in the same room. I could almost feel sorry for you - but pity is wasted on an ego of your dimensions.

Won't follow.

Not a room I 'd want to enter. You're alone, correct? What does that tell you?

It tells me that if I don't think like you I must be on the right side of any argument. On the other hand, I'll go with a top WADA official who told me Nadal is a doper. Better company than yours. You wear a M*GA hat, too? Ignorance likes a crowd.

Sure he's a top official confiding with a full time troll instead of getting his job done. Sounds believable. Is there even time in your day for having a "friend"? If he's better company why is your whole day devoted to arguing on letsrun?

Methinks you doth make up fibs.

Enjoy your day on the NZ politics thread. Looks like a busy time ahead. You've got a lot of "emails" to answer,

PS I'm from the UK.

Why would a I wear a hat?

Up and at 'em tiger!

If the hat fits. But the irony. You spend every moment of your available time keeping track of my comments so that you can issue your eager and clumsy ripostes, and while complaining repeatedly of ad hominem argument your only contribution to the thread has been to level your blunt little "barbs" at me personally, like a drunk belching his vacuous opinions in a bar.

Because I became concerned about your mental condition I did some research to see if there was anything that can be done to help. Sadly, there doesn't appear to be. I'll leave you here in the hands of the professionals. But I guess you'll continue your mindless blathering as I walk out. Silence is impossible for you. As you will show.

Once again - Nadal is not extraordinarily old for an elite athlete. 34 years (and unlike Kipchoge/Geb etc. it is actually his real age) and all the strength training/physio/massages etc. allow him to be in peak physical condition. He might not be the fittest athlete anymore (but still very fit), but in combination with his skill and incredible experience he can still remain at the top.

Look at UFC - in the division with the strongest fighters (heavyweight), the top 2 are 38 and 41 years old and had an incredible fight this year (41 year old retired just now). Lebron James is 35 and destroying NBA. I'm not gonna vouch for all these "old" athletes being clean (especially in sports known for steroid/blood doping abuse), but then at least don't single out Nadal, he is not any more or less suspicious than other old athletes in highly physical sports with great musculature/bodies and insane performances.

He is a lonely and bitter man who lives in fear of dying.

I pity him, despite his ego.

And you are married, correct? Haven't you got better things to do?

Does it not go without saying that many or perhaps even most top athletes in all big-money sports are doping?

We're talking about humans, tempted by huge paydays and unimaginable glory, often faced with a choice between winning or losing, poverty or riches. And so they turn to what they believe is a safe dose of PEDs that their competitors are also taking.

I wouldn't single out Nadal. I think that he is a demonstration of what it now takes to stay at the top in an athlete's later years and still dominate. Tennis will be no different from any other major sport in which there is widespread doping.

And that is the red pill.

Rekrunner still takes the blue pill and describes doping as something athletes only imagine will help them. In other words, it plays no significant part in athletic performance. How dumb can athletes be!

I'm sorry but I burst out laughing when I read that.

But nothing to see here.

Of course you are sorry.

Of course you laughed.

Your life is so sad and lonely you would have to cry otherwise.

Hang in there!

Poor thing...

You are so committed to worshipping drugs, you even think that pills can control our beliefs.

There is no question that Nadal (figuratively) thrashed Djokovic, although I would question the use of "literally":

"thrash: beat (a person or animal) repeatedly and violently with a stick or whip"

Clearly, you've never taken Viagra - as half this site over 50 will have. But sure, performance enhancing drugs - of any kind - are just a mirage, that people take on "faith".
