Edwin Soi says Mo Farah FEARS him

Now that I know I can call him Soi sauce, I think he's my new fav runner

From the article:

" Kiplangat said he would have loved to see all the four of them qualify. He said as far as he is concerned Farah was not such a big threat the way he is being portrayed though again he can not be taken lightly after posting impressive results in the 1,500m recently. He said all will depend on how they handle the race in the final.

Longosiwa said: " I don't think we are badly off but I see the final being very tactical," "

LOL. Seeing their stupidity I predict no medal for the Kenyans.

ROFL

One of the articles that this page has a link to says that soon women might not be allowed to use bicycles/motorcycles because straddling a seat/saddle is undignified and may encourage rape. Apparently, 1/3 of women are molested or raped over there...

You're an idiot if you believe that.

I see that as being a positive comment, as they usually do the opposite of the plans they divulge. Whenever they say they're going to run a hard pace it turns out to be slow.

I won't consider this a race unless it's sub 12:50 and the pack is gradually dwindled down through the distance.

Farah will win. Soi Sauce will dick around near the front with the other Kenyans. But Farah will take the lead at 600 meters remaining... And then - IT's OVA!!!!!!!

tell edwin soi to stop smoking crack

They will fight a fierce last lap battle with Alamirew, each running 52 seconds!!!

for second place 100m behind Gebrhiwet who is going to solo to 12:49 and become a legend.

Absolutely.

It is clear that the Kenyans have NO CHANCE in a race slower than 13:00.

Therefore, they will go out at 13:50 pace.

Has Koech always been called "Chairman"?

Regarding Koech: "He said as far as he is concerned Farah was not such a big threat the way he is being portrayed".

Is this guy serious? Let's see...

Farah

Defending World Champion in 5000

New World Champion in 10000

Defending Olympic Champion in 10000

Defending Olympic Champion in 5000

Recent 1500 in 3:28

Koech

4th in World Championships 5000

Fastest 1500 of 3:38

I'm not really the biggest Farah fan, but I can't wait to see him shut down these cocky Kenyans, who continually prove to be nothing but talk, with absolutely no results to speak of. It will be amazing when only Longosiwa (the only one who wasn't obscenely cocky) gets a medal.

Yep. It's his nickname.

Rupp will most likely win

I think you might want to reread his statements. Doesn't seem cocky or incorrect at all. Farah has not looked very dominant this year. He's been beaten, almost lost to Jelian, and hasn't run a fast distance time in over a year.

Yeah, I was going to type up a response regarding the race, but after Soi Sauce, I think I'll just say bravo and move on.

The only Kenyan capable of taking down Farah is Kiprop - too bad he has not yet moved up to 5000M

Get back to us after you read all the article about rape against women, and then blaming the women, in Kenya on various Kenyan news sites.

Um, you put a lot of information there, including their 1500 times, but overlooked a small thing called their PR IN THE EVENT THEY WILL BE RACING.

Seriously.
