Look, if I’m the only one responding with this observation, I’ll eat my Nikes; but isn’t it obvious the damn country’s gotta pick a new name; clearly most of the participants stopped at only six-and-a-half miles, because they thought they were told they would be running the
quarter marathon? Isn’t that what we all learned you’re supposed to say in crisis management? It was a “communications” problem.
The spokesperson for the hapless
Al-Saad Sports Club sponsor didn’t even dissemble they were
“all sad” about the turn of events. With the perpetual arid climate, one might think the country would never experience that kind of drollery shortage. These people are so miserly, they wouldn’t even spring for the “u” in their signage.
