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....

BillS makes a good point. I would hazard a guess that about 50% of all notable athletic achievements the past decade are clouded or have been proven as outright fraud - baseball certainly is disgraced entirely, pro football somewhat but that's more from illegal drugs and thuggery, cycling without a dout is a sham, T&F/weightlifting are completely corrupt, swimming has had its fair share of issues.
Then, you got gull over there in Texas sporting those new pipes, just makes you wonder about it all, oh the humanity.
