Jordan Hasay Methylene Blue sponsored posts deleted

Bad look for all involved IMO.

As someone who has done a fair amount of dumb sh!t in my time, although it pains me to see people doing dumb sh!t I can kind of understand. I managed to come out of it ok and in one piece without causing too much harm to myself or others. I can only imagine what it would be like to have all my dumb sh!t out in the open for everyone to see and speak publicly of.

I saved the photo of Jordan with the blue tongue. I guess it might come in handy some day to repost somewhere.

This wasn’t some mistake like forgetting to bring your spikes to a workout or race or putting your shirt on backwards. This went through her agent and she had to decide to agree to take sponsorship money before putting up any IG post. She did this very deliberately as a fully grown adult using her public persona and image, it deserves to be questioned.

^^^ Exactly. This is where I was coming from. It wasn't an accident. Deleting all traces of it seems to skirt around the heart of the issue. I understand Hasay wanting to put out the fire as quickly and inconspicuously as possible, but LRC has no reason to do so.

(Now for a more catty comment)

Jordan's current instagram story is a picture of a sign that says "Don't think too much, just do what makes you happy." This kind of sums up my opinion of the mentality of a ton of successful athletes. It's a great mindset for going out and accomplishing athletic goals, but it's a horrible mindset for thinking critically or generally caring about your impact on anyone other than yourself. I put these people on a pedestal for their athletic achievements and nothing more. For this reason, the Galen Rupp approach seems to be the most appropriate.

It's her choice to post an ad publicly on her profile. This isn't like she is being exposed for something she was trying to keep private. It's essentially the equivalent of making a public statement that backfires - it's not a new phenomenon that social media brought about, as you imply.

Shame on the Brojos. If Hasay wants to out herself as the fitness influencer equivalent of a Gwyneth Paltrow-level, anti-science essential oils hack, then she shouldn't be exempt from the blowback.

Is it on to the next thing for Hasay - breathing carbon monoxide?

That chick would eat anything banned or not.

This was all obvious when 2:27-at-best JH popped a sub-2:21. Disgusting.

This backpedaling is a pattern with her. Anybody else remember when back in 2014 she, along with help from Salazar and Nike, stole a world championship spot from Gaby Grunewald when USATF disqualified Gaby while refusing to show “incontrovertible video proof?”. Jordan was happy to take the spot until she couldn’t handle the social media outrage and decided a week after the fact that she didn’t want to “make a USA team under such circumstances”.
