No one says Coburn dopes. Why? White American?

Maybe because she didn't jog an 8:59?

She's not quite fast enough yet. If she shaves about 5 more seconds off her steeple then we all will know she is doping and go full bore with all the rude comments.
Because she didn't dominate the field in a win, break a world record previously held by a doper, live in a country with little to no OOC yesting, run for a coach who has raised suspicions, or exhibited unusual performance progressions. Next question?

Awesome race and great effort. Who knows, some of these medals my be moving around at some point. She could end up with silver or gold.
Or get her medal stripped for doping? Why is it only the Africans?

I agree that it needs a new title. I've changed it to "mma Coburn wins bronze medal in new American record of 8:07.12!!"

Rojo, you do realize she ran 9:07, right?

Heck of a race, congrats on bronze -- I thought she might pull off silver for a second. Way to pace herself for a new American Record and get herself on the medal stand. Inspiring stuff!
9:07.63
She didn't jog but the last maybe 20 meters lol, and Ik the Kenyan right in front of her was doping too because she jogged a 9:06

Here is the answer:

I didn't see any wr set in that race lol, and two of the Kenyans people accused of doping from the 10k run for bowerman track club, it's just always the same thing with you people Emma was basically as fast as the 3rd fastest runner ever for the steeple sub 9 performer but just because one is Kenyan and one is American one is automatically doping and one isn't
It's not that she didn't run for a coach with doping suspicions, or have unusual progression, because the winner was better than Emma before this year, I don't expect you to know that though you can't look into anything but skin color and nationality.

Yeah, think of all those black Russians excluded from the Rio Olympics.

wait, what color are Simpson's medals?
Nice try playing the race card, but the same factors have applied in the past to the Eastern Europeans, Russians, and Chinese and they were later found to be doping. It just happens to be Africans now because the OOC is virtually nonexistent there. How many times were the Dibabas, Ayana, even the steeplers who train with OTC, tested OOC in the last 12 months?

Agree. Super smart race from Emma. Well done.
I love when losers call elites by the first name like they are friends.
If people are cheating they need to be caught idc what country they are from, but people need to stop acting like it's only Africans, why is it too that only Emma can be clean? Or only Molly huddle? Or on Flanagan, desi, and Cragg? I'm not talking about WADA doing their job the problem is all the "fans" of the sport
