On twitter:
Bernard Lagat "To disqualify people when they didn't gain an advantage is not the right spirit. I like to know I earned my medal".
OK so I'm in and out but....I have not yet heard any 5K DQ's mentioned on the NBC feed.
USA nat'l anthem will always be #1, but Germany's is definitely lit as well.

Class :)
NBC on TV definitely announced Chelimo is in. But have not heard it from any other source and it is still not that way on the iaaf site.
The letter why wrote:
So are you guys mad about Chelimo's racing because he is a Kenyan who stole Ben True's spot? Or are we excited about a breakout American star?
Why is no one accusing Chelimo of doping? I'm confused, he's Kenyan so he must be doping, right? Or is he American, so he can't be doping. But I thought that was only white Americans?
I'm so confused letsrun trolls, how am I supposed to be reacting to this???
Awesome! Good job!
Solid meet for the Republic of Murkah. ;)
Glad that we were able to rebound from that very mediocre 2015 WC.
Online stream says they are hearing rumors but nothing official yet.

Another dumb@ss who thinks everyone on LR is of the same opinion. Not awesome at all.
The official site has just changed and moved Chelimo and Ahmed back, still showing a DQ for Edris.
Bernard Lagat shows once again that he is the classiest athlete in track and field. If that's true Chelimo was reinstated, that is great news. He was the 2nd best in the field in quality by a significant margin tonight--and had a rough road with all the shoving. I don't know how he has improved so fast this year, but I have followed his progress for years from NAIA and it is truly impressive.

You're cranky because he made a valid point. No, nobody said everybody thinks the same. That's your straw man. We all read the crap many people say on here and the point was valid.

Sounds like maybe Ethiopia didn't protest

Incorrect. He addressed 'you guys'. He didn't address his post to people specifically making accusations. He does not have a valid point at all. He is taking various troll posts and applying all of them to 'you guys'.
I think it's nice that a 37-year-old Spanish woman won the high jump. Sorry Lowe only got fourth, though.
How come no one's mentioned that Trinidad and Tobago actually ran a bronze in the javelin?

You are totally correct, sir. I apologize profusely.
Now listen everybody. If you are
going to critique something, make sure you are TOTALLY SPECIFIC about EXACTLY whom you are addressing. Otherwise the officials will step in and make your point officially INVALID and DQ your point for lack of specificity and this guy will come down on you so that everybody can officially dismiss what you are trying to point out.
Did I get that right? It's rule 14b.024, according to this guy. Or something.
