You have just confirmed you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about!!! Where did you watch Mutai/Matui winning Gold??? It is John Kelai who won Gold. Amos Tirop Matui/Mutai took the bronze.
I intentionally avoided addressing the issue of " excitement" in my earlier post because that is a right that no one can deny you....
To my simple mind, I thought the issue was insinuating that he is "
less patriotic" than those who were in Delhi. My point was, which in your opinion i missed, in kenya we have too many talented athletes to concentrate them in one place.... if all our top athletes went to Delhi in the name of patriotism, they would have denied the up-coming athletes to show their case.....
