Shelby Houlihan BANNED for 4 years

Christian Coleman should make an appearance

guessing an injury update, with high-profile athletes missing the Trials and Games, but stoked up by the you know who jos and hyena followers as potential doping news; anything for the clicks.

I don’t understand why it’s become socially acceptable to completely make stuff up in a way that is defamatory.

Not making anything up. Jager was reported as “likely doping” on an official WADA document that got leaked. Rojo also just basically confirmed that Shelby tested positive. Then you have Salazar, a bunch of sprinters, and Nike’s nefarious dealings in the past. Nine is dirty, plain and simple.

I think this press conference coming up will verify this.

That report for Jager was April 2016. And “likely doping” was a part of a classification system to look into Jager because of his blood values- not the presence of any illegal substance. Obviously any sort of investigation and increased testing of him afterwards led them to believe he wasn’t actually doping.

And Rojo heard something that Shelby’s agent said he didn’t know about. That’s hardly conclusive.

any idea where this is broadcasted/where we can watch?

See rojo's original post. Invitation only. I'd be surprised if LRC is on the invitation list. But I hope there are some independent outlets there that will actually report the story.

The “tainted meat” argument is complete BS. Do you know the likelihood of consuming meat with a banned substance in such a quantity that it registers a positive test? It’s basically impossible. If she tested positive, she was caught. As an athlete, you’re responsible for what you put in your body.

I’m getting to the point where I’m suspicious of every Nike athlete. I will be pulling strongly for all non-Nike runners (Lyles, Hoppel, Nuguse, Simpson, Purrier, Coburn, to name a few) at these Trials.

You are correct, "an athlete, you’re responsible for what you put in your body", but everything else, you are as wrong as a 3 dollar bill.

Zeranol, the livestock substance that Ajee Wilson tested positive for, had only triggered 1 other positive test in 16 years. So what again are the odds that she tested positive for this on a day she set a US record? You literally would have to consume 1/4 of a cow in a week’s time to ingest the amount of Zeranol to register a positive test based on the doses that it is given to cows in.

Nike IS super dirty. Not wrong about that either.

Except Ajee runs for adidas.

again, if it was this, why would jager have posted his own video saying he's injured? he posts on IG but Shelby gets her own press conference? they never have press conferences.. it's got to be something unprecedented and big...

Looks like Matt London has joined the team. They are pushing hard for a new event, the 10m hand timed, combined with a judged hotness factor.

Also, it was from Fancy Bears. Being jilted Russians, hardly an unbiased source.

Lol Nike is dirty but any other company ie. adidas, puma, etc. isnt?!

Lol gtfo

Jerry avoiding metoo cancellation, steps down, Shalane is new head coach. Houlihan is the woman's coach pending outcome at trials.

Lolll he's joined as both an athlete and coach. Look out for BTC videos of lifts filmed at weird angles and short hand-timed sprints.

Lol. Of course, the US is always unbiased.

Don't you think WADA would have told us if it was inaccurate instead of refusing to comment?

All I've heard is that it's "not good" and they're asking not to Tweet until the press conference is over......

Not just a press conference, but a private one for invited media only, it can't be good.

All BTC gear will be stored in a smelly pile in the corner of Matt's room, next to the Dokken poster.

Any hints? Injury updates perhaps?

LetsRun is part of invited media ... lol!

That said, I love this site and can't stay away like an explosion.
