So is LRC going to sponsor Bobby Mack?

The silence from Wejo/Rojo is telling. At least address the issue in passing.

Brojoes = bitchbros.

Won't back up their word

Surely you guys have realized that they are at least thinking of how to address this, which is why they have left the thread up all this time without deleting it (yes, I guarantee they have seen it, even before the dummy emailed them a link to the thread).

Bullshit, the day after this thread was posted I saw Rojo respond to another thread within 5 minutes of its posting. They've seen it and are just waiting it out. I want to see someone bring it up to them in person. Go to the Olympic Trials, find them waiting to harass Galen Rupp, and ask them on camera.

once I bought a lottery ticket and won $5, so I don't understand why it doesn't happen each time.

Seriously, you think those guys spend hours on the boards?

Anyway, what do you expect them to do in a week? maybe they are working on something, maybe they're not, but have a little patience.

Why? We are talking about LRC sponsoring him. Why does he have to move to some shithole like Minnesota and work for some shoe peddler? Why can't he run fast and get sponsored by LRC since they said they would do it?

Money, meet Mouth.

Minnesota a shithole? Bobby's in Raleigh, same as NC State, Minnesota would seem like Shangri-La. Of course, a skinny guy like him would turn into a MackCycle come December, but that would make him tough.

Really? Have you ever been to Raleigh? It's a pretty nice town.

Relocate? Mack has a coach in Raleigh, NC. He trains with 2 13:30 guys and one has run 7:43 for 3K. Sounds like a better group than Zap, Hansons, Minneapolis, etc. for 3K-10K and XC at least.

Lets see...move from home state of NC...and a coach you've been with for 9 years...when things are going pretty darn well...when it is an Olympic year...NOT HAPPENING!

If he is happy with his current situation. GREAT. No reason to complain or expect anything more, That includes sponsorship, If the current training situation does not include sponsorship, then it sounds incomplete. If he is happy with that then SHUT THE HELL UP.

Those are some poor analogy skills.

Seriously, do you not think that the board is constantly moderated at the very least, and that the moderators would tell Wejo/Rojo about the thread once it was posted?

Yeah, at this point, they have definitely seen the thread. It's a heavily moderated board and it's spent a solid amount of time on the first page of the forum since I posted it. Hopefully they're working on at least some sort of comment...

bumpin for peace

Hope they make good on their promise.

bump....If the Kip Litton thread can stay alive, this thread should as well. Great running Bobby!

bump <3333

If it feels good, bump it.

The Kip Litton thread isn't just a string of bumps, it's discussion. If you want to keep this thing on the front page, discuss something or let it go and just send an email to someone at LRC. Or, as was suggested earlier, find Wejo at a meet and ask him in person. They probably have seen this and no response might be their response, but there have been many threads over the years where someone assumed another person saw the thread and they hadn't. Anybody remember when that guy was pissed at Nobby for not responding to a certain thread but the guy didn't bother to email or call him?

Maybe we need to start a movement. We'll boycott ALL letsrun.com sponsors until the brojos make good on their word. It hurt Rush L....
