Re: Lagat-holy shit!

you are talking to a total, complete 100% virgin ( at least with regards to drugs)here. But emotionally, this whole drug thing is just ruining everything. Childish I know, but I wish we could ignore the whole deal and just ooh and aah at the performances. Isn't that what we USED to do ??!!

Yikes, don't go there. P & I are KILLING each other. At worst druggies are just killing themselves, poetic justice. We can't give up on drugs any more than we can legalize marijuana, just because 'everyone' does it and it's a 'victimless' crime. Drugs (abused) cheapen life and it's too precious to waste. And so endeth the lesson.
P.S. do not turn this thread into a pro-weed thing.

I've said it before, I will say it again.... maybe time to give up on this issue. Not trying to start a discussion here, but I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF ALL THIS DRUG STUFF !!!! It'd worse than Israelis and Palestinians.

Re: Lagat-holy shit!

How else is a guy who can't break 1:46 going to run sub 3:30. Tip of the iceberg indeed. Most of these guys who have had Europeans and others intimidated with claims of genetics etc. are dirty. Wonder how many potential champs hung it up or never gave it a try because of all these cheats benefitting from PC attitudes, avoidance of most spot testing, and an embarrassed IAAF, trying to make things look clean, having now backed itself into an embarrassing position?
