Dara just one the national title in the 100M Freestyle in 54.4 at the ripe old age of 40. Simply Incredible. :applaud: :woot:
If that's not inspiring I don't know what is.

Good Eveing. I am new to this board and from Australia. I have read the posts in here for a few months and have enjoyed them.
I am surprised though at the number of people who have suspected Dara of using drugs to achieve her superb results at your recent trials. I thought she was brilliant.
I also read an article about her yesterday from time magazine which covers suspicions of drug taking

If she were an Aussie, I think we would be defending her to the hilt and defying anyone who accused her.
I hope she does really well at these olympics. She is an inspiration.
My post was factual.
My prediction is that her appeal to the CAS will be unsuccessful, her positive tests will not be overturned, and she will be suspended.
I do not disagree it may be a suspension. I do not disagree the positive tests may not be overturned.
Factual to the final outcome??? I am in the presence of the Suth-sayers. If you are right in the final outcome I will take my hat off to you. I don't know if you can count on what will happen stranger than fiction things do happen. And I have not had a drink today except coffee and I have taken all of my medication.
You remind me of the great Creston. Your predictions could come true.

If you do not know who Creston is he is a Mentalist.
I am so proud to know you masterminds knowing the results before it comes to an end.
I am not going to be disappointed no matter what happens I will wait until the full outcome.
As you say she tested positive. I don't have any problem with that.
Let us wait for the results of the investigation there could be contributing factors.
There is no "investigation." She tested positive for a banned substance and faces a two year suspension as a first time offender.
Her only option is to appeal to the American Arbitration Association and the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The ruling of the CAS is final and binding.
Lindsay,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Rick Demont was partially screwed by the team physician at the time who refused to admit any wrong doing on the part of Rick or himself.
Rick had a diagnosis of asthma long before going into the games. Does anyone know if Jessica had a diagnosis for asthma?
Clen differentiates itself from something like Albuterol in that it reduces fat and increase muscle mass. If Clen wasn't used for body building purposes it would be similar to Rick's case.

If this was a race you would be disqualified for jumping the gun.
