I have a novel approach to the problem of doping, published here for the very first time on letsrun.com
Any positive analytical A&B result gets an automatic and unappealable 1-year ban, starting from the date of the first publication of the decision to ban, which publication could be made no later than 30 days after return of the B result.
Going forward, previously-sanctioned athletes start behind clean-slate athletes such that the distance they run is 105% of what the others run.
A second positive analytical A&B result puts the athlete back to 110% of the distance.
A third positive result is an automatic and unappealable lifetime ban.
Finally, previously-sanctioned athletes will henceforth be required, with no exceptions, to wear clothing featuring a referee, or zebra, pattern, so that they are easy to distinguish.
On second thought, maybe just the zebra outfit would work well enough, if fake bucked-teeth were also required. Or alternatively, one of those Groucho Marx fake glasses/nose/moustache.
Me likey, very much. If we can't ban them for life or stop them from competing, at least we COULD make them look ridiculous while so doing. Oh, the fake glasses/nose/moustache would also be required during any medal ceremony and event-sponsored press conference, or else automatic DQ.
The more I think about it, the more I like it. Let's hit them where it hurts--in their ego.
