Has Jakob won a race all year?

Glasgow 3k

He also beat Tefera in a 1500 indoors.

And a 1500m in Bærum.

Cheserek has been in the states for 10 years, and he still does not have Citizenship?

That is inexcusable. He should have had 5 or 6 years ago.

What is the problem?

Such a long time usually means there is something wrong with the applicants background.

Or he waited to send in the paper work and then messed something up or someone filed it the wrong place or etc etc etc - our citizenship process is not known for being a paragon of efficiency even if you do things right, much less if you make a mistake.

Trump don’t want no dark skin immigrants.

And Ches has no basis for citizenship.

Does anyone recall how long Lagat's citizenship process took?

Can't even run faster than a white teenager from Norway

The king is dead long live the king. King Jakob

I'm more of a Jakob fan than King Ches, but you can't doubt the clout: The King OWNED the NCAA during his reign and has the past of a proven winner. Once he gets his toes wet in the IAAF world, he'll start making noise.

Can’t even get in a DL meet.

Never ran a world champs either

Ches is up & down. When's he's up, he wins. Not sure he's ever gonna be a world-beater, but he does have the talent.

No matter, tomorrow I'm going to the courthouse, changing my name to TAOUFIK.

This is not limited to the United States.

Visa and green card problems - officials say he has not proven he is good enough internationally, supposedly. This is from February

He has not. And he never will win a major race.

Not like it matters. Jakob is more doped up than El G and ALL the Chinese and Russian women in the 1980s-1990s combined. Take away the EPO and Jakob would be a 13:45 guy on a good day.

Beating Rop and Ingebrigtsen is definitely impressive, but 13:04 for Ches isn't in my opinion. He ran a tactical 13:18 at NCAAs two days after winning the 10k. I would say that he should've went under 13 a while ago, but there was no way he was going to while at Oregon. I'm definitely excited to see what he does in the next year or so though.

Hiiiii racist. Take away the EPO and Bekele is a 14:10 guy. Rudisha is a 1:47 guy. See how that goes?

The U.S. citizenship/naturalization process is pretty efficient and is one of the best run areas of the gov't. If you aren't good with paperwork and following instructions , its probably best to hire a paid service. The process isn't complicated, but certain mistakes and missing appointments can actually cause you to resubmit and reset the clock. The process starts with submitting an application (Form N-400) and being eligible. Although Ches has been here for 10 years, the first couple of years he could not apply because you have to be 18 and I recall him not being interested anyway. Also, you have to be living here with a legit green card for 5 years before you can apply. Once you apply, it takes another year of two. His sophomore year at Oregon was went I first head him mention U.S. citizenship, but the problem is, no one knows for sure when Edward actually applied for citizenship. If he applied His sophomore year at Oregon, he should be eligible now. This is the normal process, there are other faster processes like military service, marring a citizen or having a PhD in nanotechnology, etc. Btw, the president can make you a citizen in an instant with the stoke of a pen, which has been done many times.

EPO is a helluva drug. Chez is proof.
