I seem to remeber a female swimmer appearing on tv with a Balco hat on. If I remember correctly, she was talking about how she began training for the 200 Olmypics and was using products from this company. She was helping them develop products for swimmers. I'm not real sure but I was really surprised at the time becasue I had heard about Balco from a friend who lives in San Fransisco and is a body builder. I, at the time, was still recovering from lots of surgeries and he told me about all of their "wonderful" products.

    Originally posted by knelson I think (hope) swimming is cleaner than many other sports, but I think you're wrong if you think swimming is squeaky clean. Yeah, I agree that drugs are present in swimming - no doubt about that, but I just think it's cleaner than a lot of other sports.But then - can you imagine feeding those drugs to kids, because if some get to the elite level by 15, how long have they been using drugs of any kind? Makes me sick ...
