I remember years ago when Angel Martino couldn't go to the 1988 olympics? Now, a swimmer name Vencill has been accused of taking steriods who was going to the Pan-American games.Americans always point to the East German system in the 1970's and 1980's and the Chinese in the 1990's. So, do some of you think its more widespread in the US than has been previous thought?
I'd say there is a huge difference between a state-sponsored all-inclusive program, and the individual who decides to cheat.
Besides, that same SwimInfo article mentions that the swimmer will appeal, so you may want to wait to find out what happens. "(His coach) said he (Vencill) believes the steroid may have been present in a legal supplement he took."
