Let's be honest. Mebs body of work is way better than Rupps. Rupp has won two og medals because of slow times and week competition. Meb has faced tougher competition

To be honest, I hope it bothers you I like Rupp a lot better and your post won't change my mind who is better. Good try though.
If your talking about right now (which I hope your not) then Rupp is much better, I mean just look at the results. In Meb's prime however, I would have to agree that Meb is better. Though I can see Rupp getting a 2:07:00 PR on an easy course.
Trackbot! Galen Rupp vs Meb Keflezighi
TrackSnot! Distance runners who have doped
Rupp is doped to the gills
Galen may be doped to the gills, but at least he's a true American. Meb wasn't even born here.

...then per bot logic Lagat is clearly >>>>>>>>>>> Rupp, correct?
At 5000m and below, yes. Beyond that, clearly not...witness Lagat being reduced to spectator status at the trials. In those same trials, witness the hypocritical complainer getting dropped by the novice.

Prime Meb was 27:13 and 2:09 in great conditions.
lol..those times don't even count as races to Rupp unless they are tactical efforts.

Meb benefited from a crazy man tackling the 1st place runner in the 2004 Olympics. The only reason he won the Boston Marathon is because all the other runners assumed he was old and washed up.
I'm still a big fan of Meb despite these facts.
also, none of the guys in Boston had any experience with the course.
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
