Is he implying that big Liu was looking for some mentor assistance in doping? I'm shocked! Pffffffft. And Wang junxia only drank turtle blood, ate caterpillar fungus, and drank koolaid. What a farce.
Mr. Obvious.

Wang was an effeminate man. That's the most plausible reasoning I've seen for the times from that period. Think about it.

No short tracks.
No mystery.

Wang gave birth to a son and that just shows this "man" thing is total BS. I also met Wang a couple years ago personally. She had gained some weight after retirement and looked like a typical Chinese lady in her 40s with hips etc.

Their swimmers are back at it. Crazy results tonight in the 400's... you have to watch them in the second half of the races to see what I mean. They are taking off like the other swimmers are doing the dog paddle.

that is what i was always told as a kid, the russians and east germans cheat by using steroids, and the americans are all just hard working honest people doing the best they can with old fashioned hard work.

when i hear about a gatlin it bothers me a lot more for an american to be cheating than a foreigner.

i thought every american was like hulk hogan said work hard in the gym, say your prayers and take your vitamins, then i read hulk hogan himself admitted in a court case to using steroids every day for over 15 years, i was devastated that he was a fake and i have no respect for him anymore.

Did anybody read the article?
"Dr Chen said some Chinese stars declined to use banned drugs, such as volleyball star Lang Ping when winning China's first team sports Olympic gold in 1984. She declined to use testosterone despite low levels in her body at the time."

Lang Ping is about the biggest Chinese sports start ever. The Woman's Volleyball was lifted to become a Chinese favorite when her team won the gold in 1984. Lang was also the head coach of the US Woman's Volleyball team and led the team to beat the Chinese team at the 2008 Olympics.

Just wonder who else declined/accepted the use of PED?
