Around this time of year, with the Olympics closer than many people think, I find it important to remember those who have paved the way for future generations of athletes and Mr. Potato heads.

As told to fellow competitor Alan Webb, the following athlete was just, "too juiced to lose":

Alan's best chance at Worlds was to string it out from the beginning. He's always been just a tad too slow in foot speed, with a few notable exceptions. Not sure what went through his head.

it's so interesting to see him come across the line with the reaction he does. he looks kind of relieved to have won, a sense of finally..the hard work has a paid off, and then he thanks god for helping him, when in fact, he only needs to thank the makers of his PEDs.

But I am sure he was not the only one juiced. The better juiced won at that day. Jorge Torres was too naive to think he had a change competing clean in the Olympics.

You can see his unnatural muscle tone in his shoulders when he bends down to kiss the track.

Very distinctive.

Shoulder strength IS important for top end. Ever see a sprinter with no delts?

I dunno. I don't get it. They all look like they could "possibly" be doped, it's just Ramzi got caught. How can you tell by looking at his shoulders? The guy's a svelte runner type, is all.
