Actually Rupp was following Bekele for the majority of the race but beat him quite handily over the final 600m.
Kenny B is not looking like a medal contender, but Rupp is.
Do you guys even follow the sport? Seriously, do you? Do you know nothing about peaking at the right time, racing into shape and just plain talent?
Where the hell is Malmo when you need him?
Look, clownhats, Bekele is most definitely looking like a medal contender assuming that he stays healthy between now and the games.
Rupp has a very outside shot at a medal. Not zero (and therefore quite impressive). But folks coming on here and proclaiming it PROBABLE that Rupp will get silver have been smoking way too much of that funny stuff.
