Subject: RE: BS: Olympics trivia quiz
I am not being flippant or butting in here to spoil your Quiz Wolfgang, the 64,000 dollar question is, who was the last drug free athlete to win starting from the 100 meters to the marathon, sorry I had to bring this up, does anyone really take the games serious now?.
We hear that the two star World and Olympic champions from Greece have been barred as they failed to turn up for a drug test and an Irish athlete has owned up to taking drugs, this won`t be the end of the story. And to think I listened in to the Radio broadcast from Mebourne in 1954, when Ronnie Dealeny defied the odds by winning Gold in the 1500 Meters, I don`t think Ronnie had to use stimulants all those years ago.
A simple solution let all of the participants use whatever stimulant they need and let them take the consequences.
