IAAF former head charged with corruption relating to anti-doping??!?!

Once again, this isn't a surprise. There's no other way we could have sent the 80 drugged medalists to WCs and OGs.

Who will be indicted next? Vin Lanana? John Chapiain, Phil Knight? Mike Reilly? Wittenberg? Tom Jordan? Glen Lattimer? Max Siegal? Stepahine Hightower?

Capriotti?

No. No chance. They did not touch Armstrong and thom wiesel who clearly committed perjury and all kinds of frauds, conspiracies, drugs violations. they aren't going to bother usatf.

Besides, IOC works very hard to keep their business and doping out of criminal courts.

Imagine what would happen if doping was criminalized in the u.s. the NCAA and many football program administrators would go to jail. NFL? PGA? That bill would die under a huge pile of election donation dollars.

Do we have any names of the athletes he was protecting?

Plenty of money to make at the top as Diack shows. Solid 6-figure salaries for national federation folks... before bribes.

Anti-doping is 90% window-dressing and spin

The reality is that doping will remain prevalent at the elite level

That's not the real problem. The real problem is how so many people are obsessed with drugs, whether they dope or not

Former anti-doping director Dr Gabriel Dollé also being investigated.

Dope testing is corrupt? Who would have guessed. It's an industry. It has nothing to do with ethics or what is good for the sport. As long as people believe in the efficacy of certain chemicals on a banned list (which could be extended to countless thousands more chemicals) then there will always be this phoney war on drugs.

I genuinely would like to know the truth regarding how many known and untold athletes have been legitimately cheated out of national, World and Olympic medals.Particularly in the wake of the Russian doping scandal, "OUT" all the cheaters, ban them, rescind their medals, retrieve their prize monies, and give it to honest, clean winners. I suggest that ANY athlete caught doping in a National, World Championship, or Olympic event be banned for life and criminally prosecuted for fraud and grand theft.

Aslı Çakır Alptekin did not pay to escape being flagged positive:

. Olympic medals are for sale.

Wrong mindset. Everyone is suckered into this stupid belief of drug cheats versus clean athletes. If the drugs are so good, then how come the Russian women are slower now that they were in the 80s?

The stupidity just goes on and on, big business for drug dealers, doctors and drug testers, and stories for the news agencies. None of this is good for the sport.

Blacks, Eurotrash Whites, and Muslims. And any of this surprises anyone?!

What was diack's position when coe wss running? Did they have a telationship then?

I don't know why half the posters on here even bother watching the sport, as the negativity and character assassinations are overwhelming.

Yes, there has been corruption, as there is in all big businesses. Diack has 'allegedly" been caught with his hand in the till. But to me it is good that this has happened and is not just a coincidence it has happened now Coe has taken over. People are not giving him a chance.

It is Coe that is setting up independent out of house testing, and establishing an ethics commission that has come up with the evidence against Diack.

You people call out for change and transparency and then when it starts to happen, are up in arms against the people who are trying to do something about it.

i honestly cannot believe no one has said anything about my Lamine's Di&ck and androgel comment.

i'm giving up on Letsrun for a while....
