You guys are right about LRC, not for one second do I believe Nick Willis has been clean. Nothing has shown me that. But here's the bottom line, I don't care if he is clean or dirty, as there is a level playing field.

How about he's a fine athlete who cares about the state of the sport?
And you know this how?
His Olympic record speaks for itself. That he openly condemns doping confirms that he is not indifferent to what it is doing to the sport.

Nick stating what is obvious. But in the virtuous halls of Letsrun, professional athletes with a distinguished record are not allowed to say things like that.
If Nick wants to be captain obvious, why doesn't he bring Rupp and Mo into thew conversation ansd questions everything they have achieved in thew careers. They are much bigger names than Hassan. Guess it's easier for him to pick on a little woman!
You seemed to have missed that Rupp and Mo - yesterday's men - aren't competing at Doha while their coach has been busted for doping.

nope, and neither is nick. They're both racing 7 days later, about an hours flight from nick's house. Why not call them out? talk about range, mo's 15 pb is better than nicks! Isn't that worth a call-out? Hasn't rupp, he with no wheels, come very close to nick's mile PB? that would deserve a call-out, no? and how about the bombshell about jenny simplson and dr brown, that should deserve a call-out, IMO...

Hahaha who's that?
Watching her preformances over the last week, I immediately thought of Ma's army. It is just so blatantly obvious. People who even have a ounce of hope she's clean probably also thought Asbel Kiprop and Lance Armstrong were clean.

No call-outs from Nick on: Rupp, Farah, Centrowitz.
Easier to pick on a tiny black woman who lives in the Netherlands than the grown men he might actually see in person, I guess. "Brave."
Was Willis seeing Doc Brown as well? Every time Willis speaks out about something , you find out he was part of the problem.

Is he racist?
Did he say anything about KK?
Anyone really surprised by the results?
Was she not the favourite in both events?
Anyone think that after the allegations & continuing investigation that AS would continue with his shady practices?
He got caught a long time ago & USADA took forever to ban him for what he did in the past. His current crop of athletes would not be under him if they had banned him in 2016!!!
Also, I don’t like AS but I highly doubt he’s done anything wrong in the last 4 years.
Galen, Hasay, Koko & Sifan are legit.... I’ve no reason to point fingers.
if he's serious, let's see him talk about the men wrote:

If you are going to be outraged, at least be outraged about real things.

1500 m PR at age 32 (and a cheat in his private life too).
You (and Willis and others) are 100% speculating about Hassan. This is not the standard to publicly badmouth someone.
Based on your post you do not understand world class running talent and training (and are exaggerating Hassan’s range), and all you have is conspiracy theories and irrational hatred of Nike and Its athletes. These are real people who you and others accuse without any actual proof, just because what you see doesn’t fit your understanding of the world. Shameful.
Any man who uses that term that the op used in the subject should be castrated. We don’t want you in our gene pool.

You obviously know nothing about her. Sifan spends a just a little tiny bit more time away from Oregon than Rupp and Engels, you idiot. Including in the Netherlands. I have seen her training there ffs.
You are avoiding the actual point, Nick-fanboy, which is that Nick is too much of a coward to talk crap about his actual competition or actual men.

?????????????? indeed.
Casual Observer is either lying or officially outing himself as working for Russian Intelligence.
In any case, I've take a screen shot of his defence of Hassan. I know that I'll mention it in a couple of months time and he'll accuse me of lying (and his alternative handle 'Spade Detector' will post within one minute a reply with the usual 'his word is mud, blah blah').
I haven’t laughed that hard in a minute .. OMG

Lol - ask his wife.
And no, I didn't defend Hassan. Why are you lying so much, Coevett?

See for example here:
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11600782A proud Christian, he recalled the pain coming clean about his addiction had on his loving wife.
"The hurt she felt was something I never wanted to make her experience again," he said.
"Before I focused on how my addiction affected me, but it wasn't until I realised the effect it had on others, especially my wife that I committed to change."
