All I'm saying is that NOBODY is bringing up PED use when Lagat is certainly someone that fits the profile.
"nobody???!" PEDs get brought up in literally every Lagat thread.

You all say that Edward is old but LV could have been much older then his recorded age but none of you questioned that.
By the way if Ed looks old then this guy is ancient

There was a ton of complaining when Verzbicas was setting Frosh and Soph records and was a year older than regular freshman and sophmores. He skipped from Soph to Senior and was regular age when he graduated
Cheserek turned 19 a couple of weeks ago - he's the age of a college freshman. He should not get credit for the HS record.
That kid is in high school?! His hairline is way back!
Well, you know what they say- once a duck, always a methhead.
Here is some conrimation.Cheserek is 19! Why isnt anyone discussing the fact he is 19 years old?I wonder what Rupp, Ritz, Lindgren, Pre ran at 19....hint hint, much faster than 8:39.

I think it was 8:39:15, anyone confirm?
All those adoring fans of Lagat are going to be so disappointed and angry when he gets caught for doping. I just feel bad for the kids.
And the Cheserek thing is just a big joke. He's clearly overage and probably even older than the 'official' 19. He comes to our country 2 years ago and suddenly he is an American? What a joke.

If that were true, Galen would have run it. The fact that he didn't proves that he probably would lose.

Make up your mind.
Not to quibble, but Cheserek isn't 19. If that's what his handlers are willing to admit to, imagine what his real age must be. This is like another Solomon Haile.
And concerning Lagat, you have to figure that extremly fast dopers like him face a real quandary once they get to be 33, 34. On one hand they know that they have a solid 3-5 years left at the top by staying on the juice, and that's serious $$$. On the other they risk getting caught or "sacrificed" by those who were once complicit (like happened to Jacobs, Slaney etc) and blowing their entire reputation.
I do not know why so many people think Lagat is clean. It's not even as if he has not shown himself to pull underhanded shit like he did while competing for Kenya while already having US citizenship. And that is WITHOUT the pos/oops not pos drug test. So he smiles a lot, that makes him a guy who wouldn't dope? Only grouches and non fan favorites cheat? Get real, ya friggin starry eyed yutzes.
Yep it's going to be hilarious when Lagat ends up on Oprah. At least I hope has the decency to do a public apology when the truth comes out.

And the RUPP thing is just a big joke. He's clearly UNDERage and probably even YOUNGER than the 'official' 26. He comes OUT OF NOWHERE 2 years ago and suddenly he is SUPER FAST and RANGE WIDER THAN A MILE? What a joke.

Rupp has 10x the credibility of LAgat and Cheeserek.
(1) Real birth records and doesn't look ancient
(2) No failed drug test like Lagat
(3) Didn't run for another country
(4) Repeat 1-3
Love me some Lagat. Glad he got the record.
I owe it all to the PED's. You don't think a 38 year old could realistically run that fast legally do you?
I'm just glad everyone has forgotten about the time I failed the drug test! (oh and that I raced for Kenya at the Olympics but now I'm a redblooded American!)
You guys can keep hating. Lagat will keep dominating. I'll keep smiling.
Two more Kenmerican records. great.
Two more Kenmerican records. great.
Yeah why don't we have a combined Kenyan/americna records? Seems like every damn kenyan comes over anyways so what's the point. At least then we could expect less age cheating.

You really think Oprah would waste her time with a Rupp confessional?
All these Haters on OREGON just goes to show that Oregon is the best team overall mens and womens in the Country counting indoor,cross and outdoor. :)

Good to see Lagat taking time to give high-fives, autographs, and take pics with the fans. A nice refresher after reading the bash-fest that is LRC.
No kidding, that is the real track and field in the USA.
This board is the surreal hell of it.
