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?

The problem with the "let em" attitude for baseball players is that they have incredible exposure in our society, far more than any "Olympic" sport athletes.

Lefty, if the guy is guilty than yes he should be condemned here and everywhere else. We should be defined by our worst and/or best actions isn't that who we are?
If the guys proven guilty than stand up and take the punishment, that will define who he is down the road. Sadly in our world we have few people that take that kind of responsibility, something we see daily in how our legal system works.
