Why are many American pro-runners congratulating Shalane today, but none did so to Hasay last month?

The lack of logic in the following post is amazing.

Ok, Rojo - So just so we get this straight so we can all get on your bully train and click your ads like sheep : If Shalane wins a major she is as pure as snow, but if Jordan gets 3rd in a major she's dirty. If Galen wins, he's dirty. But if Meb wins he's clean. Do we have that right? If Simpson wins medal = good, if Rowbury medals = bad....

In all seriousness, the hypocrisy from you personally, and your racist and misogynistic website, and the other jealous American distance runners is stunning and in full display day after day. Shame on Desi as well. What bitterness and hate in her soul....

Shalane owes an apology to Hasay.

So let me understand this. You call me racist (which means I hate minorities) yet you also say that I love the African born Meb over the US born Galen Rupp?

Hmm. Interesting.

And we are misogynistic yet have a splash page up for Shalane?

Real good post.

I'm just a little confused, because it seems like if Shalane, Meb and Simpson demonstrate they can be world beaters, than why can't NOP runners be world beaters?

Shalane must be something really special. She can win a major and beats all of the other women who are on drugs.

Sorry Molly, you chose the wrong race... wrote:

Yes - Shalane may have won today, but I don't really give her 'credit' because she clearly bested a Keitany who was running on 'less than a full tank.' I'd give her more credit if she won NY with a fast time. Instead, she really benefited from Keitany holding everyone back with SUPER SLOW PACE until late in the race.

But I bet you loved Rupp's Chicago win.

Keitany wasn't forcing everyone in the field to run slow. They chose to do so.

But why does that matter? Flanagan's last 10k was incredible.

Flanagan hit 20 miles at 1:54:39

Flanagan hit the finish in 2:26:53. So Shalane's last 10k+ 8 meters was 32:14. That's hilly as hell.

Hasay's 10k pb on a perfectly flat track is 31:39.

But ypou probably think I hate Hasay? False. I predicted she'd beat Desi in Boston and was 100% on that prediction.

Now, do I think there's a higher percentage change that Hasay is doping than Desi? Yes, I do.

In terms of most suspicious to least suspicious, I'dd go. Rupp, Hasay, Jager, Flanagan, Linden.

By your logic, I should be ashameda s I said Linden might be doping. I'd bet my life she's not but I start with the assumption that everyone but myself might be dirty and work from there. So if someone honestly responds to a question, "I don't know what to think about the NOP" given the fact that former team members have expressed reservations, their is a USADA investigation etc, there should be no outrage. It's common sense.
