Shortly,these guys want to chnage the rules because they can't compete with Kenyans and Ethiopians in Cross country,marathon and long races. Surprisingly (I hope the media report is wrong) Kiplagat and Okeyo,who sit on the IAAF board seem to have given a nod to this childish racist rant.

Is it a classical case of 'He who pays the piper calls the tune' or defeatist racism?

If you have money that you expect to start using in five years,it now belongs in stocks.
When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

I read the article. It's stupid!
Did Brazil kill soccer? Did Schumacher kill F1? Has Tiger Woods killed golf? Federer killed tennis? Jamaicans - short races,Russians - pole vault,SA - rugby,US - basketball,Korea - judo,Thorpe - swimming.... At this rate I wonder which sport will survive.

Bright and interesting people talk about ideas.
Those of average intelligence talk about things.
Stupid people talk about other people.

@ kizee,since your name suggests you been around longer than some of us,

How did ZA kill the 15s?

@ All,This pretty much pays semblance to those things that Moi used to hate before he started to play along. Those things which were introduced by the Bretton Woods Institutions in the late 80's and were implemented in Kenya and many other African countries in the early 1990's. I think they were called SAPs. In my view,these were machinations to serve Western interests and also make development a harder task for Africans.

Ok they have the money to sponsor these Marathons e.t.c but the latest move by IAAF is raw fear and smells like raw racism. It comes from the same guys who would refuse a Kenyan banana entry into their market because it is 'too curved'

Alongside this,I now wish to soberly contemplate the hullabaloo about Ms. Caster Semenya....................and I wish to continue calling her Ms.

Soon they will remain with nothing to compete for as the blacks take over everything...let them be prepared.....and very scared!!!!

The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.

@spendthrift

have u watched the SA games durin the ongoin tri nations? all they seem to do is force their opponents to concede penalties and kick for goal..styen gets like 99 pct of their points on average...habana and jp peterson never touch the ball becoz the boks never get the ball beyond steyn number 2(francois) ....the wingers and second center might as well grab a beer and sit in the stands!!!!!

the issue here is running rugby has been killd by the offside rule and the myriad chess like rules that the players just do not seem to understand..so teams like SA and England rule the roost with their huge forwards and accurate goal kickers....the fans watch a 90 minute match and soon forget what a try is...

Boks have killd 15s bro..tri nations..super 14...i think i will stick to the 7s code,in 7s u have no choice but to run the ball!!!
