I think Kenya will kick out butts this time because the team is ravaged
Dinkessa (Reliably unreliable)
Gebremariam (wife got pregnant he got lazy)
Sihine (Trains too hard and burns before the season starts.
Maregu Zaude. (One hit wonder-2004 bronze)
All kinds of scrubs are going to make the team and we may have a good chance with tariku but we will get crushed in the team standing.. Last year was a LOW with freaking Eritrea beating us. but this year will be worse. Both of Ethiopian Phenoms. Abreham and Ibrahim are horrible at XC with Abreham not even making the team last year.
It is very possible that Kenny will through himself in.. and if by some miracle..everyone is healthy and in 2004 shape.. we could trounce the Kenyans.. with Kenny Shine and bekele sweeping the medals. But that is very unlikely.
