Nike's big bet - what a joke

The movie tried to present a balanced story but the problem is they glossed over a lot of facts and totally ignored other facts. If the movie presented all the evidence against Salazar, the movie wouldn’t have been as entertaining. Seems like Nike knew they could get away with a big bet because media would always have their back because of the money. The thing I couldn’t understand is how Gladwell could back a doper, now I think he might believe in burritos.

Another sad delusional hate felt sucker heard from. Just as no animals were harmed in the filming of that documentary, no athletes actually doped, including Alberto Salazar.

The documentary missed a lot of angles, and the director missed a lot of things. It's an amino acid supplement, it's not a drug. It's a building block to a protein. And it turns out it does nothing. The Salazar was penalized for using two large of a fluid amount in his tests.

He was also penalized for having a s***** personality, and acting like an a-hole too often in his aggressiveness in coaching.

For some of these other things, there's a bit of kangaroo court and circus act in track and field dash as soon as I can tell it's because people are really good at things going to sports where there's more money and more success possible, as far as administration and officials and drug testing or concerned.

And anyone who knows how to read body language, and how to read faces, per the research of Dr Paul ekman, what a weak sauce disingenuous individual, and I mean this gently, Weldon Johnson appeared to be.

It's like you spent a lot of time saying all kinds of positive things about Nike, the cover his own behind, for the anonymous crappy and his brother have posted here for years on their message boards - and accusation they do not deny dash because they will not deny that they've ever posted an anonymously on their own threads to stir up clicks.

And the common opinion here, has been that Robert and Weldon have been anti-nike for decades.

Where can it be viewed in the US? It seems compelling!

Really well done documentary.

Only issue I had was they interviewed Chris Chavez and his basic normie opinion on everything.

Well it details nikes unwavering support for someone who is now serving a lifetime ban for sexual misconduct so you can decide that for yourself

AKA ensuring his men and women athletes are ideal weight as it's one of the primary aspects of effective training and racing, and was monitored by medical professionals.

Let's not cheapen the ways people have actually been sexually (dealing with sexual organs, inappropriate sexual touching, inappropriate sexual comments) violated.

Several witnesses have confirmed that this old creep had a habit of publicly commenting on the young teenagers' and women's butt, to put it mildly, right into their face in front of several people while they were scantily dressed. And who knows what else happened, considering a lifetime ban was the result of a year-long investigation.

The lone salient point in your rambling, unreadable post.
