Good riddance.
This just reinforces my point that there should be a lifetime ban for all intentional drug cheating in the first place. If you are caught using EPO, which doens't just accidentally get in your system, boom you are gone for life.

Why haven't they clamped down on US athletes?

Yes good riddance. But I thought that she was already retired. Caught 3 times that deserves a mega boo.

That would mean banning the IAAF?
Why do they let them get to three? Doping is the ultimate sin in track and field. One instance proves a complete lack of respect for the sport, your competitors, and their livelihood. One and done.

The Turks are on the podium with the 3rd highest number of ABP sanctions right behind Morocco & Russian. 😉
She couldn't even wait to make a "likely doping" list first. 😅
I wish lifetime bans could be introduced for first time serious offences (such as epo & steroid use).
That stuff doesn't accidentally make its way into people's bodies...
Steroids can be accidentally ingested. EPO, no.

I was looking for the Manchester United vs Southampton game [football] on BBC when I came across this.
I knew someone had it on Letsrun.
http://www.bbc.com/sport/athletics/41371579That said, and i don't want to derail this thread, does anyone know how one can watch this football game?
I understand it is on NBC gold ..........

Sounds like you've never watched football before. Literally, you don't even need cable dude. That's all the hints you get.
That helps.

Complete BS.....Steroid cheats are very inventive...and dishonest...
And so is the IAAF. It's hard to blame the athlete when the federation is so corrupt. The federation is so obviously corrupt it taints everything. (Diamond League, WMM, Olympics)
Were it the case there was lots of transparency at the IAAF such that an outside observer could be reasonably confident about the integrity of the federation, sure, we could then talk about lying steroid cheats.
