Yup. Why not take the hypocrisy out of sports and get rid of the drug-testing altogether?
If someone wants to die young, or have an extra arm growing out from in between their shoulder blades or something like that, so what?
Just change all existing WR's, AR's and OR's since 1968 to "the post-asterisk era".
Seriously LR mavens, which do you believe were the last more or less clean Olympics? I would submit that Tokyo MAY have been, possibly Mexico City in '68. Any winter Olympics where the Soviets won the Gold in Hockey are suspect. OK, so I'm biased. I was never big into the Winter Games other than for the bobsled, downhill skiers and the ski jumping specialists. (Figure skating? NO thanks.)
The late Hal Connally, US weight event man, admitted that pep pills were being taken as early as 1956.
Who's kidding who?
