OlympicsFan 791 Posted September 30, 2019 #2181 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Amazing to see that the american cheater didnt win gold, sadly she still stole a medal. Still a great night for the US, 4 medals in the last 3 events, when only 1 medal (for Wilson) was expected. Already 3 medals for american cheaters: Wilson, Gatlin and Coleman Way to go!

Innocent question get deleted, while personal attacks dont get deleted. Nowadays it is only about who can scream "I am the victim" the loudest, facts dont matter anymore. Just now, OlympicsFan said: Looking at the countries of origin of most of the canadian athletes here i wouldn't be surprised if Canada tried to bought Chepkoech. Luckily she has enough pride to not switch nationalities for money. It's so funny to read your first post, and then have you follow it up with this garbage. Canada, and most western nations do not buy athletes. They are either born there, or settle as immigrants or refugees and then compete for their adopted nation. You are right, facts certainly do not matter when it comes to your posts and comments. Canada4thewin, NearPup and Olympian1010 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't tell me what my country is and isn't, and who is part of it and who isn't. Nationality & citizenship are NOT the same thing like you're suggesting. It stretches beyond Canada so you have no case here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people need to leave their politics at home and stop trying to tell me what Canada is and who a Canadian is.

But he was raised in Canada and probably training in Canada so he's "fruit from your garden" and that's fine with me. That’s an understanding of Canadian-ness that is completely foreign to Canadians.
