In the French guy's defense, there's a 100% chance the gold medalist from China was drugged up. For those of you who can speak Chinese and have had the opportunity to visit China, you'll know that there are two types of people in the country: those who are aware of the many shady practices the Chinese government engages in (including a massive state-sponsored doping program), and those who are so brainwashed that they no longer even believe Tiananmen Square happened. The fact that Sun Yang had been busted in the past using a PED that he claimed was for angina-related heart problems (virtually non-existent in athletes of his caliber) really doesn't help.
using a PED
Except that it was technically only a "performance enhancing" drug for EXACTLY that year (2014). Before it was OK, and it's OK now. Probably the whole thing was payback for his "bad boy" antics against the Chinese powerkings.
heart problems (virtually non-existent in athletes of his caliber)
Either they're real enough for him to sit out the 1500m final at World Champs 2015, or that's another cover story.

Exactly, just like the cover story of "parasitic bug" for Mack Aussie in Kazan.
Does anyone else think the OP doesn't care about this thread, but just wanted to say "French loser" in the title?
