Another swimmer bites the dust. She says its from her ovarian disease . . . . . pay no attention to the synthetic qualities of testosterone that was reported to be found in her sample. Don't know if I'd want to arm "wrastle" this woman.

"Brazilian swimmer Rebeca Gusmoa suspended for steroids
She won 2 Pan Am Games gold medals, plus a silver and a bronze. She looks like the Incredible Hulk. And, she used synthetic testosterone. Check out her photos; which is the off-cycle?
Summing governing body FINA announced the doping suspensions of Brazil's Rebeca Gusmao. The International Herald carries the story."
This has been an interesting thread. I feel that because of the endless possibilities of who's cheating, who's not, to what degree one is cheating, etc., you just have to focus on your own accomplishments. This is not to say that there isn't a solution to drug testing, perhaps there is. But it's definitely a complicated subject.
Just out of curiosity, and perhaps this is another thread subject, but I wonder what opinions are out there regarding the "cleanliness" of say the top 8 finishers in any major international swim meet, male or female? In addition, what's the opinion of whether or not one can set a world record in an event as a clean athlete? Just curious.
