Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
Nobody ever claimed Phelps was doping. Like usual, you just bypassed it and assumed the articles claimed they were. In fact, it does the opposite and gives you reasons of why people like Phelps are most likely clean. The two main sports were doping is prevalent is cycling and track/field. This is reference to present day, back in the 80's and the cold war era, the Soviets were notorious for sending chemical byproducts to the Olympics in many areas.

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
I feel like in your world NC, everything is sinister or a conspiracy. Nothing is genuine, no one is sincere. Sounds like a very bitter place to be

Also, that's not fair to characterize my beliefs that nobody is sincere or genuine. On the contrary, there are many people that fit this description and many of those people are on this very board. More often or not though, money has a way of making good people do bad(or questionable) things. Joe Paterno? Marion Jones? Politicians? .....and the list goes on. Speaking of inspiring events. Here is a good story to a bad event. Hurdler is carried off by other athletes after he injures himself. Liu Xiang injured again in Olympic qualifying - Yahoo! Sports ..and more incredible feats!

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
Bolt doesn't look like a juicer and his race history doesn't really reflect that of a doper. Really no good reason to think he is. Jamaica's setup has just been perfected to find and cultivate their best athletes into sprinters. Its their national sport now....or you could choose to believe a tiny carribean nation with limited resources has the best doping program outshining the US and all other far more well equiped nations.

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
