Why is Mo Farah lying so much about Jama Aden??

No. I am sorry. That is not even close.

Tyler Hamilton's explanation for why he had blood from 2 people in his bloodstream (heterologous blood transfusion with blood from another person) on a blood test... was that he was a human chimera with a vanishing twin. The vanishing twin was the explanation for blood from another person in his bloodstream.

I think Tyler wins the award for the funniest doping excuse ever.

OK?

This was on John Oliver's show on doping. I showed it to my brother-in-law he laughed so hard he spilled coffee all over my new carpet.

Seriously, where was this puddle? Kenya, Algeria, Morroco, Sabadell, Font Romeu, Beaverton or British Cycling HQ?

Let's put his 3:28 pb into context, that is quicker that Centro, Willis, Coe, Ovett, Cram all Olympic medalists over 1500m in modern times and countless Kenyans. An unreal time for an event he doesn't train for and has rarely run.

Ever heard of Noureddine Morceli? Noah Ngeny, Bernard Lagat, Hicham El Guerrouj? Makhloufi, Iguider, Kiplagat (WC)?

3:28.81 is a great PB, but still behind Gebrselassie's PBs over 3000m, 5000m, 10000m and probably also Marathon. And was achieved in Monaco, which at least seems to be little bit dubious.

Yeah, I know all of these guys, I was pointing out some great milers who Mo just suddenly runs faster then with no 800m warm up races etc. I also said that he was slower then Geb for every other distance.

4 Golds.

Does anyone know of any athletes with a similar performance trajectory to that of Farah?

Where they were ok-ish, but then had a literally unprecedent, meteoric rise to dominance (or even just huge PR gains at the elite level) in their very late 20s?

Has anyone similarly seen such great improvement that late?

Obviously Allah broke the mold with Farah, but I'm curious about similar "talents." 😂

After the darker days of this year and last for the IAAF and IOC, there is a brighter narrative in T&F now, with the IOC + IAAF, ably assisted by the media, nudging us into a new, 'feel good' state of mind about T&F, the point end of which is the re-enforcement of the belief that the clean athlete (usually a media-friendly 'saviour of athletics' type) will ultimately destroy the dirty doper. Just like Rocky whooped Drago.

Men's 100M/200M? Check.

Men's 400M? Check.

Men's 5000M/10000M? Check.

Rio 2016 will be remembered as the games when the good clean natural talent beat the dopers (suspected or proven) and put T&F firmly back on the road to redemption.

I know so comical, the commentator on my olympic feed was some Aussie guy who banged on about how Bolt and Mo were just the nicest guys in the whole world and that they were the best athletes in any sport ever etc blah, blah, blah. And the crowd went wild in Rio.

Man props to her for creating such a wacky excuse, at least she thought about variable linkages. Our mate Mo on the other hand, one week he's mate with Old Jama and the next he's never meet him before.

All the athletes I have listed have better 1500m PB than Farah and are Olympic (or WC: Kiplagat) medalists. So it's just completely wrong that he has better PB than all of them, which you have claimed. And he is not just slower on the other distances than Gebrselassie, but even his great 1500m mark is behind all of Gebrselassie's other marks in terms of quality.

It's not even close, regardless what honey the mouse wants to tell us.

This is correct, but theoretically Mo's mile equivalent or 2000m should be quicker the Geb's based on his 1500m pb but at every other distance Geb is better.

Adding in that he was 30 when he ran his 3.28.

At 25, his PB had been 3.39. A nice 5% improvement as he moved away from his peak years

Farah is a brilliant example of the hypocrisy of UK and USA media and fans. If he was in a Russian/Algerian/Moroccan/Spanish singlet then he would be accused of stealing medals from clean athletes. .

In one way, yes. He is very lucky h plays the media game so well. I think that helps quite a bit.

Aden just held the stopwatch. We all know you need a specialist for that.

Don't forget the special vitamin injections won't work properly unless Jama is holding the stopwatch. Otherwise those trips to Ethiopia or Sabadell are a complete waste of time.

Farah cannot tell the difference between Sabadell and Font Romeu. The only thing he knows is they have tracks he can make ovals on. It is not his fault he doesn't know where he is most of the time.

Or who the coach running the session at the track is.

I checked the IP and this thread was started by a moderator.

Wow, pretty scary when the forum moderators do this anonymously driving people down.

Thinking of having my daughter, who is a lawyer put an end to this.

As the starter of this thread, this is laughable.

Me thinks you must be a Mo PR person....

I just checked your IP address, and it comes from a Freud's Communications VPN location. Shame on you.

I am sorry.

You are incorrect…corrector of falsehoods.

She was from FRANCE…and Tyler's excuse is still funnier.

ridiculo says:

I would put her in the top 5 to >>>>>>>>>>>8.7 depending on lots of drivel.

OK?
