Your post fails for many reasons, way beyond your ability to use a spell checker. The main failure is lack of evidence and substance to form a basis for reasoning.
What do you suggest we should do? Increase testing? The IAAF introduced out of competition EPO testing in 2003. In 2003, "urine" test" existed for EPO (so while blood testing is important, urine testing is also significant). The IAAF introduced the bio-passport system in 2010. What is the next step, for you?
Kenyans and Ethiopians have dominated for decades. How can doping be so local for so long?
Why do you think no one is taking a stand? Do you really think that global organizations like the IAAF and WADA are not target testing Kenyans and Ethiopians? Why do you think the responsible bodies are giving them free passes?
The fact that it is so many "studs" should reduce suspicion: What does it cost for organizations to dope 50-100 athletes, versus 1 stud?[

No, let's continue to give everyone from third-world countries an endless supply of free passes because it is racist, xenophobic, and not politically correct to even consider the possibility that greatness in distance running by a small portion of the world from a somewhat isolated area is due to anything other than hard work. It would be completely rediculous and incomprehensible that drugs (and inaccurate birth records at the junior level) could be related. Why be suspicious of people that burst onto the running scene, especially those who don't merely run fast or place well, but those who run near world record times out of nowhere? Don't even mention the possibility of cheating in any form because it is simply a fact that good quality training, combined with upbringing and competition push them to the top, while top runners from other countries sit on their lazy a**es all day. Maybe if others got out and trained hard day in and day out through pain and suffering they too could be decent(Hopefully you realize this is sarcasm). Seriously, when does it stop. When do we take a stand and at least address the possibility of abuses within the system? Do people really believe that European, Asian, and American countries together can only produce one or two runners(on a terrific day) that run within a few minutes of the leaders at major races, racing to the line with the second and third tier Africans. Also, those top non-Africans seem to only have one or two of those performances while it seems the "competition" is doing it nearly every few weekends. The paces being run by the lead packs are getting to be rediculous. If it was one stud, I would be suspicious, but when the whole front group is blazing I can't take it seriously. Let the attacks on my reasoning, lack of random mathmatical analysis, and political "incorrectness" begin. And round and round we go...[/quote]
