So bad on so many levels

I am not sure we realize how bad this will be for swimming and US swimming. This will change how everybody looks at the US team from now on. The circumstances do not matter to the casual sports fan - they will only remember "US swimmer caught". The medal winners will lose a lot of money on endorsements - USA swimming was the "clean" sport, the poster child of how to do it right. Not any more - any advertiser will now look at swimmers differently. What about US trials - this will change how quickly the testing has to come back and how some 3rd place finisher may train after trials. US Swimming - they have already screwed this up on 10 different levels. No press conference, 3 weeks after the fact, some web forum starts leaking the story, coaches and swimmers at the Olympic training camp know and they expect to keep this quiet ? Amateurs

    Mr. Logan should get a medal for standing up and telling it like it is---and should be. Give false information to Federal Agents, cheat, take PED, malign others, call your detractors racists and threaten law suits to ALL who called you out for your cheating---heck, Ms. Jones is a poster girl for the slammer---and needs to serve ALL her well deserved time. It is time for all nations to get tough on PED and STOP turing a blind eye and making excuses for this wretched behavior. I have utter and complete disdain for these cheaters--and--if for no other reason they stole the dreams of years and years of hard work, dedication and efforts for those who chose to do it the right way---CLEAN. Oh, and for those who think their are no clean athletes competing--nonsense. Many, many honest, decent and dedicated athletes have chosen the right way to compete--and that is clean.
