Robert Cheruiyot wins Chicago Marathon 10/22/06 with a time of 2:07:35 but slips at finish line - OUCH!
10/24/06 Update:
CHICAGO (AP) - Chicago Marathon winner Robert Cheruiyot left the hospital on Tuesday after spending two nights there with a mild concussion he sustained when he slipped at the finish line.
The 28-year-old had sprinted away from fellow Kenyan Daniel Njenga during the final stretch of Sunday's race when he slipped backward and banged his head, causing internal and external bleeding. His momentum carried him across the line, making him the winner in two hours seven minutes 35 seconds.
Cheruiyot, this year's Boston Marathon champion, was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
He had no recollection of what had happened immediately afterward and asked his coach if he had won. But his agent, Federico Rosa, said his client's memory is intact. There were decals with the marathon's logo at the finish line, but Rosa did not blame them for the fall. He suggested after the race and during a news conference on Monday that wet conditions, shoes and even just a lack of balance caused Cheruiyot to slip.

... he is talking about the morals of the fact.. that guy was first.. and he is second but the guy in first fell because of some slippery advertising at the finish line so his morals would be to give him what he deserves and had rightfully won.

tons of people.. places and countries in the world that aren't stupid enough to paint their roads.. so you would never even need to know that. You shouldn't assume everyone knows what you do.

How can you call someone stupid after constructing a sentence like that? And how does this mean ALL American's are stupid? I think people who generalize are stupid. Fuck you.
