"Well it takes winning a race to get to talk to you"
Total dis on the USATF tv interview

More context please.
Technically, he is a beast
it was to the BBC, the BBC carried out the interview and he was voicing his frustration that following the race they had interviewed Farah before him. Prior to the race all of the talk in the build up was also about Farah, with very little (if any) mention of Heath himself.
Typical BBC obsession over Farah.

Black privilege.
I think you will find it's a British TV channel, and so the focus will be on the British double Olympic and world champion in the race...
BBC coverage was terrible. They obviously wanted Mo to win, then made the commentary fit the script rather than comment on what was actually happening.
Eg, "Mo Farah is a great tactician and is just putting himself in a position to strike". "He's got all the speed to win against this field", etc
Whereas what was really happening is that the two Americans worked together to stretch him in the last k, whereupon Heath, the bigger and stronger athlete was able to put in a surge up the last hill that Farah couldn't cover.

Yeah, I don't really see the issue. ABC/ESPN is going to focus on American teams and athletes, even when they get beat. BBC is going to focus on British athletes.
Is it me? Or is there something incredibly satisfying about watching Heath take down the Mo Show?
Satisfaction
The King can only remain the King for so long. Granted this is one race.

Yes, it's just you, you are literally the only person on this website who dislikes Mo Farah.
I dislike him as well :)

Except Farah is a Somali with a permanent address in the Oregon.

The Mobot is something best left unseen at the end of a real running race.
Man I'd love to see Heath, Derrick, and True peaking for World across and taking it to the rest of the world. Not sure who would be first American in. Surely Jäger would be strong too.
Heath taking down Mo was awesome! Do you think he can repeat in Rio, when the real running takes place?
Me neither.
Heath can stretch Farah out and trounce him in Rio. Heath knows how to beat "wonder" boy Farah.
Grown men fanboying over another grown man= major gay.
Did you see that look Health gave at the end of the Video clip? His face says it all! - "Holy $hit did I just beat Mo?" Ha!
YES YOU DID!
Heath shows monster fitness, then at Nationals, follows along slow pace & goes out meekly.
