Kenyan parliament is currently discussing my questions of Ruth Chepngetich & are demanding that I apologize

idk, this?

The questions were huge, especially directly off the course, but I think warranted. People will be and have been talking; what is your response to them?

Finallyc I can check off "Kenya demands Rojo apologize" on my bingo card!

The Kenyan government asking for an apology over doping accusations is basically as absurd as Republicans asking for an apology over calling Jan 6th an insurrection. If the shoe fits. Kudos to Rojo for bringing it up.

Someone sounds scared.

Rojo is now an international incident. I think you are going to have a hard time entering Kenya if you ever fly there.

I demand that Kenya apologize for its widespread doping practices and making a mockery of our sport.

I have a bingo card with "Rojo makes a topic about himself." It gets checked off before noon most days.

PS. I don't think many people have watched the full press conference with Ruth.

Tell them to fluke right off. Also, send me a free T-shirt.

As much as I think the brojos are hypocrites, I'm with Rojo on that one. The Kenyan parliament is being ridiculous.

Screw them Rojo. Apologize for nothing. Double down and tell them you should have dug deeper and that you regret not accusing her of doping to her face. Ruth C. is so juiced that she can fill ten empty bottles of Sunny D. Go Rojo!

Lmao

can't hardlink a timestamp since the session is still live, but if you scroll to when the clock says 14:53 at the bottom left (i assume in kenya time) you can hear their discussion

edit -- it actually starts around 14:48:10 and goes til at least 15:00, i'm still listening.

second edit -- 14:49:30 for the "Letsrun.com" callout

Rojo should send them free shirts

I'm afraid that if the Kenyan government is looking for an apology it shows the level of doping corruption involved and how many people have an interest in not seeing this topic discussed.

+1

And remind them of their List of Shame

Pretty much all top Kenyan athletes are dopers. The country should be banned.

As much of a douchebag as Rojo can be sometimes, these Kenyans are acting like morons. Will they demand an apology from the next person assigned to test Ruth for any abnormalities in her blood? Being asked about doping seems far less offensive than being asked to provide a sample of blood, for instance. Imagine getting pulled over for suspected DUI, and the cop asks you if you’ve been drinking. If that was the end of it, no big deal.
