Dara Torres-Amazing

I really feel for Tara Kirk. We all know what it is like to beat yourself up over losing by such a small margin--now magnify that by it being the olympic games and what that could mean. That being said, I am disappointed in Hardy and besides her dad's explanation that it could have come from a handshake, I have no idea what she is going to do to prevail. As for the tests where she did not test positive, in the Tour De France, Ricco tested positive for EPO. While origanlly denying it, he admitted it. This is what he had to say about the tests and their accuracy. If the ones given to Hardy had the same measure of "reliability" , then I seriously doubt she can prevail on an appeal. Statements from Ricco: "During the tour they made a lot of tests, they made 10 tests in about 13 legs, two were positive and in fact in theory all the tests should have been positive therefore the method needs to be checked," he said. www.stuff.co.nz/4638068a1823.html
