And why don’t you post on here and trackie with your name? Or at least declare that you are the same person, so you don’t run afoul of making it look like multiple people are on the same topic.
Interesting focus you have. Is it true that the "away" family named you "go" as a baby?
Or are you posting from Hypocrisy R Us again?
Posting the same time as your alter ego in trackie...at least pretend that you’re different...
[1] Megan Brown is not a victim.
Megan Brown was 17 years old when she began a sexual relationship with her running coach Dave Scott-Thomas. She knew exactly what she was doing. Now years later she is crying and acting like a victim.
She is NOT.
This seems to be a trend in North America these days. Women have consensual relationships with men (sometimes older men). Then years later they twist it around to try and demonize and eventually destroy that man. They do this because their lives did not turn out the way they wanted, so they need to blame someone. An ex-boyfriend always seems like a good place to start.
She deserves no sympathy whatsoever.
If this is the reason that Dave Scott-Thomas was fired, then that is the real tragedy.
Scott-Thomas led the University of Guelph to 37 national titles in cross-country and track and field, and earned the Canadian university coach of the year award in the two disciplines 35 times.
If this trend continues, every man above the age of 21 is going to be fired and imprisoned.
It is truly over for men in North America.
Having consensual sex can, years later, land you in the unemployment line or worse in a prison cell.
[2] Steve Boyd deserved to be fired from Queens.
Finally after years and years of him cyber bullying everyone, he is now permanently banned from the sport, in all aspects (coaching, participating, even attending events).
He will NOT get his job back. So to all his supporters: please stop wasting your time with your nonsense radio interviews, newspaper articles and support letters.
For him to say that the Guelph titles should be vacated is perhaps the most disrespectful thing he has ever done.
Those runners at Guelph have trained their asses off going back to the 1990s. They truly EARNED those titles and they most definitely deserve to keep them.
Conclusion:
Men: Canada is not a country for you.
Boyd: Enjoy retirement.
That is my 2.6 cents (Canadian exchange rate)

Welcome back from Japan Dave. How was your trip?
Time for "go away" to comment on the coordinated 3 posts designed to smear DST after days of quiet on the board. Or do you only look at things through a one way mirror?
By the way, did you ever ask KVB about her involvement in the suspension notice, before the clear conflict of interest in her ACAC statements? If she's talked to a lawyer, I guess she won't answer. AC and KVB must be aware by now that their actions do not comport to professional standards.
If someone knows a good lawyer who will work pro bono, Steve "Unemployed Boyd" could use some help. He is still making irresponsible statements and given his lack of income, he might want to stop increasing his legal exposure.
Let's hope that an objective investigation will one day be done, not a story from only friends of DST or friends of MB, but real honest open discussion.
riddle me this;
who the heck has sex in their car after age 20?

Which posts are smearing DST? I see a lengthy post excusing his behaviour. Do you think it’s smearing DST if someone suggests he took advantage of a teenager?
I will chime in to this circus.
DST had consensual sex with MB when he was coaching there.
Bad idea? Well he didn't think so, neither did she.
But smart idea if you are a coach? Shouldn't you have a personal boundary?
You should. But what happened has happened.
So I think this story is a good lesson for DST perhaps don't screw with your athletes literally and figuratively.
And MB do I think she was a victim, well, partially yes and it is hard to judge because I wasn't there.
But often women will yes become vindictive.
Bottom line is it takes two to have sex. She was choosing to have sex with him.
Why doesn't she learn from her actions instead of blaming someone she chose to sleep with.
That's all I gotta say what a circus this has turned into.
And I don't know what the Queens coach SB said exactly. Or for how long he was talking. Or whatever. But we have freedom of speech in Canada. This is not a dictator state. Why doens't he consider suing his former employer. He's got to stand up to them. Sure they can fire him. Sure he can fight back as well.

Hmm, so you didn't notice that after days of no activity, there was a sarcastically written "defense" of DST followed quickly by two attacks. But you claim to track alter egos and multiple boards when it fits your biased narrative and belief that only one person is pointing out the bias from AC and Doyle. you are more than a bit ridiculous.
your approach - assume someone is guilty and then from that assumption filter any discussion to decide - yes, they are guilty as you assumed. Stay away from jury duty! On the other hand, you could run for election to the board of Athletics Canada. Or the way you write, maybe you are already a board member...

By Boyd's own admission, he was told many times that his actions on social media were unacceptable, and then *by his own description* he was given a final warning that he could not post on letsrun or trackie. So, he posted on Facebook...
*Child Steve Boyd Equivalent*
Steve has been pushing other kids out of the way and taking cookies. He has been warned many times. Finally after many such incidents his day care supervisor says "Steve, you have been pushing kids and taking cookies for a long time. Do not eat any more Nilla Wafers or Chips Ahoy or you will be kicked out!"
The next day, Steve pushes kids out of the way and takes Oreos. He is kicked out. He goes on the radio and whines "Kids have a right to eat! They can't staaaaarve me!"
Did you ask MB's friend Kate Van Buskirk what her involvement was in the suspension notice? I'm still waiting to hear. Also, any comment from AC about statements from Board Members including KVB, when the organisation said there would be no statements? She seems to have dropped a load and then left the room to stink. Is abuse of power always bad or is it OK when KVB does it?
Maybe they spoke with lawyers and realise they'd best not say anything else.

What does a Canadian university have anything to do with Letsrun?
This is an American website.
The www is worldwide.
Queens mistakingly seems to believe they have influence over how one uses the www.
He wasn't looking at child porn.
He should be free to visit this site without consequence.

You post pseudo intellectual misinformation, so I try to correct that misinformation. Nado...posted a bunch of useless BS on a bunch of threads. I don’t think it was sarcasm, sounds more like craziness. That needs no further comment since it’s plainly obvious that it carries no value.
Athletics Canada is a lazy and incompetent organization.
Their comatose national championships that hold every year in New Brunswick is a good example of their senility.
That meet has zero spectators and has more wheelchair races that foot races.

Cliff note version
Steve feels Guelph should be stripped of any titles after 2006 as this is when DST should have been fired and Guelph had an unfair recruitment advantage under DST success in the following years that would not have had if he would have been fired.
Instead of taking this complaint to Usport he decided to take his complaint to a Guelph Alumni Facebook page.
When the alumni explained that she was a victim of DST culture that caused her to leave the U of G and the title she earned by her own athletic ability was a silver lining to what she had endured, Steve still proceeded to kick when she was down.
When other alumni came to her defense and told Steve this was not the time or place to discuss this. It turned into a peeing match with both sides making some very inappropriate comments.
Later on in the posts one of Steve's assistant coaches as well as a post from another university coach tell Steve his comments have gotten out of line and are in the wrong place. that he should apologize and step back.
Steve ignores the advice from his friends and continues on the offensive.
Queens obviously did not like what they read and took action.
Thanks for cliffs.

Can anyone give me cliff notes for this entire thread?
He or she asked for Cliffs notes of entire thread. There were rumors that something was up at Guelph - a Canadian university as the highly successful coach Dave Scott Thomas (DST) was on leave.
After much speculation, Canada's largest paper published a story written by Michael Doyle with the details. It says that DST had a sexual relationship with an athlete of his Megan Brown when she was a teenager. Megan's mother was totally healthy and then dropped dead 17 days after being bitten by a West Nile mosquito. Megan found solace in running and was incredible - like Olympic quality. She joined Guelph.
Emails show they had an inappropriate coach-athelte relationship. He'd take her on long car rides. She says the relationship turned sexual and that DST even checked her out of a mental psych ward to have sex with her.
A rival Canadian coach rips Guelph's handling of this. This was from like 15+ years ago. He is fired for his rant.
