He never failed a test so yes he was clean. Letsrun continues to witch-hunt and cry about suspected dopers instead of putting effort into training
Barry Bonds never tested positive. I guess fans should have let that go too and just put more effort into playing baseball.
C'mon man...that's another bad comparison.
Look at Barry Bonds steroid timeline: There's witness testimony that Bonds used steroids & Bonds himself was indicted on Federal perjury charges for lying that he used steroids during a Grand Jury investigation:
It's all in the braces. El G had braces towards the end of his career along with Lagat. HGH changes the jaw structure. It's a dead giveaway. Look at the sprinters with pimply faces and braces in their late 20s.
People have been saying this on here for so long, but it really doesn't make sense. HGH abuse might change the extremities, but you can only ever point to braces? Their faces aren't changing at all, nor anything else? And it's always guys who grew up poor? I don't buy it, frankly I don't even think HGH is much of a PED.

All you skeptics have against El G is speculation & suspicion:
He ran fast & set the WR in the 1500
Some top Moroccans tested positive & served bans for doping.
I'm not casting any aspersions against El G just because he set the WR & a few top Moroccan runners served bans for doping!
Not all Moroccan runners were doping.
Not all WRs are doped.
I give El G the benefit of the doubt!
"I'm not casting any aspersions against El G just because he set the WR & a few top Moroccan runners served bans for doping!"
"a few" lol.
Then there's the well documented case/s of Morocco's other golden boy, Said Aouita, trying to get Australian athletes to take PEDs while the Australian middle distance coach. They wouldn't and he eventually was sacked.

No way to know for sure, but he does not fit the profile of a doper in my view. He was one of the best juniors in the world, and he steadily improved after running 3:33 at age 19.
While sudden performance improvement can be indicative of PED, that doesn't mean every PED user has to fit that profile. Do we believe no one ever used PEDs at the beginning of their career? It would seem that athletes in systematic doping programs would be using them early.
3:33 at age 19 is impressive, but in now way indicates 3:26.00 or having 7 of the 9 fastest performances. Jim Ryun ran 3:33.1, shortly after his 20th birthday.
What? Both 3:26 and 3:43.13 are ridiculous second only to Komen’s 3K. No one except Ngeny who ran a 3:43 with El G in ‘99 and fellow Moroccan Morceli who ran 3:44 six years prior in ‘93 has *ever* come even within 3 whole seconds of the mile WR.
3:26 flat is slightly faster than 3:43.13 converted.

This is exactly what I mean by my original post.
There is no way this is an honest statement made by anybody who is not a shill or an obsessive El G fan. It doesn't even make sense.

It would be pretty easy with AI to pretty much determine with certainity who was and who wasn't using hgh based on changes in their facial structure over their careers (from photos). WADA should be doing this already. There is probably a developer on this forum who could do it.
What has being poor got to do with it? Growing up being poor is though a greater incentive to dope.
Couldn't care less about PEDS, It's just sports so enjoy it. This.....is he on drugs.......simply sucks.
I have no doubts every NFL game played had somebody out there on something, hell we were doing speed in HS football.
This is about whether people genuinely believe El G was clean. Got it? We get that you experience a special kind of thrill watching buff dudes doing ridiculous things with their chemically enhanced bodies. You don't have to keep telling us.
I don't know why we even care anymore. It's just sport, it will never be clean and it will never be fair under the current rules and circumstances. It is really just a big joke now to anyone with any brains in their head. Like do you believe the government? Do you think anything involving money and social mobility is going to not involve lying and cheating? When you have nothing you will justify about anything to get something. I just enjoy sport for what it is. The giro d'italia was great today and for 3 weeks I will watch 176 doped athletes ride like the wind. Enjoy every minute of the competition -it is what it is.

Morceli is Algerian not Moroccan!
Ok sorry, and also whatever, Algeria Morocco all the same.
If he was on drugs, we will never know how must slower he would run if he was clean.
If he was clean, how fast could he have run with drugs?
In any case, he has run the fastest 1500 and mile of all athletes, BOTH clean and doped. That itself is an indication, but of course no evidence. But for a clean athlete to beat all cheaters of course takes extraordinary talent AND training.

I got it.
This thread is about what people believe. Another thread trying to argue which religion is the "truth".
It is also about you needing to confirm your beliefs.
Instead of practising what you preach and "presenting your case", this whole thread is a just a pretense to attack non-believers, by calling them disingenuous, or bots, or paid shills (paid by whom? shilling for what?) or "obsessive El G fans" (creating El G threads is "obsessive").
