Rowbury loses to Simpson.
Centro loses to Souleiman.
Rupp loses to nobodies.
Hasay loses to everyone.
Cain lost by Salazar!!!
Moser MIA.
The "mission" of getting Americans to win globally is not going to happen. Even at his home meet, Alberto can't even get a single American DL win out of the most cherry-picked team in the world.
Pre 2015: NOP TROUNCED on home field. Can we accept the "project" has failed?

Not true. The NOP cheaters have rallied all the honest runners and coaches in the US to beat the crap out of them.

Yawn

Sleazy allegedly started NOP to boost American distance runners. On the NOP distance team are 1 American, 1 Somalian, 1 Canadian and 1 Japanese. Where's the love for America Al? Maybe Sleazy should just move back to Cuba.

I am doing some hardcore Google searches for Salazar stressing the importance of a "home meet" in May trumping the World Championships.
In all honesty, and knowing this is a troll, I thought Centro ran exactly how we should expect him. As someone said in the Pre Classic thread, that's why you don't count him out for a medal at the global champs.
Jenny is, simply put, a better runner than Shannon. Much as I support the latter, last summer was exciting to watch and Jenny got the job done every time, even over the last few weeks as they were both peaking and running extremely well. Apples to apples, Jenny will beat Shannon 9.5/10 times. That doesn't mean myself and other Rowbury or NOP fans won't root for Shannon.
I guess I am curious if NOP haters think Shannon could beat Jenny if they were both trained by Wetmore? -

ummmmmmmmm, at which of those two event do you thing AlSal's boss makes the most money? -
Well it is working for the British anyway. Rupp again runs the perfect race for the winner. Leave it for a 17 year old to blast by you with 300 m to go. Just once i would love to see Rupp leave it all on the track.

You're an idiot if you think Nike makes money on the Pre. In fact, Nike subsidizes it, heavily. -
Farah - very strong result, still the boss at 10,000M.
Rupp - better than solid rust buster
Centro - great race, held off hard-charging Kiprop at end
Levins - career best
Rowbury - strong run; never going to be faster than Simpson while the latter is in her prime. -

Sure. And Nike doesn't make money from bribing either? -
You are an ignorant business man. how much money does Nike make off of Farah and Rupp? They are subsidized, heavily. At least with the Pre meet Nike got huge advertising exposure around the globe.

Nike doesn't make any money off track and field.
Nike makes money off of the shoes they develop for running that are then purchased as casual shoes by the public, and soccer yoga mom's wanting to be fashionable. -

Oh, track and field, and running, are not related. Okay.... -
Anybody defending the NOP after this debacle is either...
1. An idiot
2. An obnoxious fanboy -

No, Bad Wigins, you and the other idiots just don't get it. Nike has a huge percentage of the running shoe market, but trails companies like Brooks in specialty running stores. That means that the very people who would watch a track meet are not really Nike's core market. Their success lies with hobby joggers and those who don't run, not with track geeks. The Pre is a labor of love, not a money-making proposition. -

ROTFLMAO.
Pre is the ONLY Diamond League meet where Rupp has EVER managed win an international race. (Although his personalized 10,000 time trial in 2014 wasn't a Diamond League race.)
Obviously NOP/Nike give a massive fvck about Americans doing well in the NIKE PREFONTAINE INVITATIONAL, you dipsh!t.
They. Just. Failed. Massively.
