Marion Jones will admit in court today that she cheated during the 2000 Olympics in Sydney by taking illegal performance enhancing drugs.
I hope they strip her of her medals and give her a life time ban from competition. For years and years she lied and gave interviews boldly stating that the accusations against her were racially driven and all the while she was immersed in a very complex cheating program.
Another pathetic example of winning at any cost....

Many of us live in a dream world to be drug free.
When you know your competition is using, what is an athlete to do. I always choose not to use anything illegal.
I had been offered steroids in the 50s, I did take one pill then read about these little pills and decided not to take them.
But remember when I raced caffein was allowed. The Marathon entry forms had a line in it saying you could use stimulants. Now can you Imagine what some of those guys took. I know what they took and it was not good.
